RC1000 Dual-Channel Production Timer
The RC1000 is a dual-channel up/down production timer for count and control applications. Supporting both network and time code, this versatile and functional device is essentially two counters in one. Counts are entered via a numeric keypad and a new count can be started during production. The six-digit dual displays can show HH:MM:SS or MM:SS:FF. Each channel generates SMPTE/EBU to sync production equipment or to control counts on our TCDS Series digital clocks (or any clock that accepts raw SMPTE/EBU). Each channel can also generate network count packets to control our NTDS Series digital clocks.
