The Betso SBOX-2RF is an extremely accurate, very compact and affordable time code and word clock generator with RF transmission of time code and status information. Betso SBOX-2RF improves time code sync precision of its ancestor, keeps very easy to use "plug and play" operation control, along with its 1" large OLED display. New RF transmission brings wireless continuous jamming of time code with 0 ppm error and clear status information of all connected devices to the network with just one click of button. What we most love on new Betso SBOX-2RF is its very long operational time from a single AA battery.
Features
- RF transmission of time code and device status information
- Factory GPS based calibration of TCXO with better than 0,1ppm accuracy result
- Jamming calibration feature to copy master's TCXO precision
- Cross jamming allowes timecode sync between two different framerates
- Automatic power ON function after active time code detection
- Advanced power saving features - various different actions after 10s without any button activity including OLED display dim and turn off
- Display orientation allows to set 180° display rotation for upside down SBOX-2RF mounting position
- Time code offset adjustment from -10.0 to 10.0 frames with 0.1 frame step
- Variable user bits settings including preset value, jammed user bits and live external timecode insertion
- Real time clock option for user bits settings including combinations of year, month, day, hour, minute and second
- USB connector available for future firmware upgrades
