Ambient ACN-LB LockitBT Highly Accurate Timecode and Sync Generator
The LockitBT provides all timecode frame rates and sync (wordclock / genlock) formats
and full ACN compatibility. Lockits are based on a highly accurate temperature-compensated crystal oscillator. Once set, the Lockit boxes stay on time - and drift less than 1 frame apart within 24 hours. With active C-Jam (continuous jam) mode via
ACN, any drift is even completely excluded.
ACN - Ambient Communication Network
ACN is a stable, interference-resistant radio network through which Lockit devices communicate with each other. This makes the connection independent of interfering radiations, bad network or adverse weather conditions.
Bluetooth Interface
Compared to the Lockit (ACN-CL), the LockitBT has an additional Bluetooth interface. This enables remote control via the “LockitRemote” smartphone app (available free of charge for iOS and Android) and transmission of timecode information to compatible devices from other manufacturers.
LockitRemote App
Connect your LockitBT via Bluetooth and adjust all settings directly on your smartphone. You can control the entire LockitBT menu and start the C-Jam Master. In “ACN Radar,” you can monitor and control all Lockit devices on the same ACN channel - even older models.
Battery
With a single standard NP-50 battery with 750mAh, the ACN-CL Lockit will last approximately 14 hours. ACN communication (C-Jam Mode) only hardly impacts runtime.
Outputs
Two Lemo-compatible push-pull sockets provide maximum flexibility and continued use of available cables. TC in and out follow industry standard and allow for syncing of 2 cameras in parallel or jamming via a cable while leaving the synced unit connected. The primary output carries timecode and genlock/wordclock. This gives you the freedom to choose running it either on straight, Y-split cable or 2 separate leads using the second connector for timecode which also connects to devices that support ACN for metadata transfer.
