A Timecode Reader, Distributor, Reshaper, Analyzer and Optional Generator.Used extensively in live applications, the SR line has become a standard for show control. The SR-112 reshapes and distributes timecode through its 12 outputs, sending it over long lines with no signal degradation. It analyzes the source for quick diagnostic and generates or repairs timecode, locked to video if required.Features: 1 x 12 DISTRIBUTOR / RESHAPER Designed to send clean time code over long cables Eliminates level fluctuations Buffered outputs; balanced or unbalanced TIME CODE ANALYZER Identifies time code format, reports errors (drop outs...) Monitors video phase Generates a comprehensive report via Ethernet TIME CODE GENERATOR (option) Generates new time code with or without video reference Repairs faulty time code (jam sync) The industry standard SR-112 is designed to distribute time code through its 12 buffered outputs while analyzing it. The reshaper sends clean time code, even over long cables, making it ideal for live environments.The front panel includes a large 8 digit reader and an LCD display showing the units status and reporting errors as they are detected. All modern SMPTE and EBU SD/HD rates are supported.With the option TCG, the SR-112 can also generate new time code or repair exisitng one.Distributor / ReshaperThe SR-112 distributes and reshapes time code through a 1×12 distributor.Reshaping:The Brainstorm Time Code Distributors are more than audio DA's: they reshape the signal before distributing it and by doing so, the SR-112 eliminates amplitude distortions and input level fluctuations.Output Levels:Output levels are adjustable individually via the Output Level menus. Since the signal is reshaped, output levels remain constant, regardless of the input level.Buffered outputs:The 12 time code outputs are balanced and buffered, avoiding the problems caused by multing a single source.Time Code AnalyzerEliminate frustrations and downtime by identifying problems quickly and accurately.Time code format & Frame Rate:The front panel displays separately the format (24, 25 or 30), the drop frame status and the frame rate of the incoming time code. For example: 30 drop frame, at a rate of 29.97. No more guessing! In addition, the frame rate counter can show potential problems such as jitter or wow and flutter.Time code errors:Time code errors such as repeated frames, drop outs etc. are detected and reported on the front panel along with the faulty addresses. A buzzer sounds whenever the analyzer detects an error (can be deactivated when required).Video Phase:In post production, it is essential that time code be synchronous with video (i.e. the video frame must be perfectly aligned with the corresponding time code word). The SR-112 accurately monitors the phase between time code and video and reports even slow drifts.Time code report:A comprehensive report that includes format, video phase and time code errors can be sent to a computer via the rear panel Ethernet port.Time Code Generator (TCG) - Optional FirmwareThe optional TCG module has 2 main functions: Repairing time code and generating new time code.Repairing Time Code:In REPAIR mode, the SR-112 fixes drop outs by regenerating the incoming code (jam-sync). It can also correct video phase when it is missaligned.Generating new Time Code:In GENERATE mode, the SR-112 generates new time code. Start time, format and frame rate can be set. The generator can be genlocked to external video.SP/SR112 - Serial Port for the SR-112This hardware option is very easy to install. It allows for the TCG Time Code Generator to be remote controlled with serial commands from a computer. The SP/SR112 includes a serial port adapter and the complete protocol documentation.
