KONA LHe Installation and Operation Manual — Using The KONA LHe

Output Timecode Offset (entry field and FPS pull-down)—this text entry field allows you to specify a timecode offset for use with Final Cut Pro (or any other application that has timecode offsets that are user-controlled). In FCP, go to “Timeline Options” and locate the

“Starting Timecode” value. Use that same value here as the “Output Timecode Offset” to ensure the timecode is synchronized.

Timecode Burn-in—this pulldown selects whether the timecode value is

“burned-in” on video output from KONA LHe. If set to “OFF”, timecode will not be keyed over the video. If set to “timecode”, then the timecode value will be keyed over the output video. This can be useful for synchronizing, choosing edit points, dailies, and many other purposes.

Note: SMPTE RP 188 defines a standard for the transmission of time code and control code in

1 transmitted in the ancillary data space as defined in ANSI/SMPTE 291M. Multiple codes can be transmitted within a single digital video data stream. Other time information, such as real time clock, DTTR tape timer information, and other user-defined information, may also be carried in the ancillary time code packet instead of time code. The actual information transmitted through the interface is identified by the coding of a distributed binary bit.

Equipment manufacturers can use the meta data for different purposes.

This Tabbed screen is used for the KONA LHe timelapse feature. To use the timelapse capability, choose the "Enable Timelapse Capture" checkbox. This functionality is enabled for all QuickTime capture applications (Final Cut Pro, VTR Xchange, etc.) Set the "Capture" and "For Interval" parameters as desired. Launch a capture application like Final Cut Pro, select the desired Easy

Setup for the video format desired. You will not need to change anything within the application; the timelapse feature will produce QuickTime files with the framerate specified by the Easy

Setup used. The resulting timelapse clip can be used without additional rendering.
