Re: Time code question

Thanks Jeremy,

I probably didn't ask that question clearly enough....

I really need to know if I can PREVENT the Ki Pro from jumping into record when it sees incoming moving time code. I want to feed the Ki Pro continuous timecode from an external generator, while being able to control the start, stop, and record functions using just the front panel "transport" buttons.

(we'll be using it in a small helicopter...no room for a laptop or other devices)

You mentioned that the front panel will show timecode, but is it just echoing what it's seeing at the TC input connector, or is it actually displaying what's being recorded to the file ? Let me rephrase that for clarity> If I'm feeding the Ki Pro time-of-day timecode all the time, will the front panel show me timecode only when I'm recording, or is it just going to continuously display what's coming in from the external generator ?

And also, what kind of indication does the Ki Pro give you regarding remaining record time on the hard drive module ?

thanks,

Steve Cassidy
