The Masterclock TCDS46 display supports multiple Time Code formats and is designed for applications requiring dependable, externally referenced time presentation.
In addition to displaying synchronized output from a Time Code reference, the TCDS supports countdown and count-up functionality when used with optional Masterclock remote count controllers, including the RC600 and RC1000. This capability allows the display to be used in operational, testing, broadcast, and mission-critical environments where controlled timing is required.
The TCDS accepts IRIG-B and SMPTE Time Code signals and automatically interprets supported formats. When a valid Time Code reference is unavailable, the display maintains operation using a battery-backed real-time clock chip, allowing continued operation with minimal drift until the reference is restored.
