The Dcode SB-4 is designed to replace the SB-3 in the Denecke line of timecode generators. The SB-4 features a display and menu system, which allows for ease of use and display of timecode and settings. It reads, generates and jam syncs to all standard frame rates including 23.976 for high definition shoots. The SB-4 features an automatic jam sync capability, which re-jams to any break in timecode without the need to power down. Cross jamming of different rates can be accomplished. The advanced Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (TCXO) has ten times the frequency stability than previous products, eliminating the need to jam more than once per day.

FEATURES:

• generates and jam syncs to all common SMPTE timecode frame rates
• cross jam regardless of incoming frame rates
• sunlight-readable display with backlight
• jam from an external timecode source, or set it internally and use as a standalone generator
• continuously jams to new code so there is no need to power down the unit to rejam
• provides indication of drift/inaccuracy between SB-4 and a timecode input signal
• selectable TC output levels, eliminating the need for external output reduction pads
• easy-to-use menu system and display of timecode
• runs on 2 AAA batteries or external power connection
• simple to set up, reprogrammable for new features and updates, via both Mac and Windows
• very high stability crystal ensures low drift
• low and dead battery warning
