Biphase to
Time Code Interface
bif
The BIF biphase interface
converts biphase signals from
magmachines, film projectors or
editingtables into LTClongi-
tudinal time code and MTCmidi
time code simultaneously.
The input accepts bi-phase or pulse
&direction signals from 1 to 256
pulses per frame and can be connected
consequently with any film transport.
The electronic gear box resolves
any frame rate to 36, 48, 50, 60 Hz
or multiple signals.
The reference lock point, the user
bits, the time code format, the input
format and the pulses per frame
are programmable and stored in a non
volatile memory.
The direct conversion from bi-phase
signals into time code allows frame
accurate spottingby usingMTCfull /MMC
locate messages and positional LTC.
In „freerun“operation mode the
interface can also be used as an LTC
and MTCgenerator without loosingthe
actual biphase reference point.
The interface has a robust aluminium
housing, a large 7-segment LEDdisplay
and a built-in power supply. An optional
rackmount kit for fittingthe unit into
a 19“rack is also available.
