Thank you for your purchase of a RC1000 Up/Down Timer from Masterclock. Here you’ll find instructions for unpacking
and installing your device, proper care and configuration.
The RC1000 is a dual-channel up/down timer for production and control applications. This extremely 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 a current count or after it has stopped. It can be programmed with 20 channel presets or counts can be
calculated or entered during production. The six-digit dual display can show HH:MM:SS or MM:SS:FF. Each channel
generates time code to sync production equipment or for displaying counts on our TCDS Series of digital clocks or any
clock that accepts raw SMPTE/EBU. In addition, the RC1000 has network capability and can be used for displaying counts
on any Masterclock network NTDS clock (with fw ver or above).
We are here to help. You can reach us using various contact methods (phone, email, etc.) found at our website:

Connections
Connections to the RC1000 are made on the rear panel of the device. Signal and control connections should be
made before connecting the power for the RC1000.
PIN 1
Figure 1. RC1000 Rear Panel
The primary timing, signal, and control connection interface for Time Code Input, Time Code Output, General
Purpose Interface Inputs & Outputs, and the RS232 serial communications is via the 25 pin DB25 connector,
labeled “CONTROL”, on the rear of the unit. The DB25 is arranged in 25 pins of two rows. When viewed from
the rear, as shown in Figures 1 & 2, Pin 1 of the DB25 connector, is located at the upper left- hand corne
r.
CONTROL
PIN 1
Figure 2. I/O Connector (25 Pin ‘D’)
A DB25 breakout adapter with push insert terminal block connects has been included with the RC1000 to allow
quick connection and configuration of the wiring. The breakout adapter board is numbered with each terminal
block input corresponding to the DB25 pin number of the RC1000 Control connector. Note: An additional
terminal block connection, label “G” is connected to the metal “shield” of the DB25 breakout adapter, which in
turn connects to the DB25 connector and the case of the RC1000. This connection may be used to extend the
shield of the signal cabling
.

Timecode Connections
The basic timecode input and output connections are detailed below.
Single Ended (SE) unbalanced such as those distributed by 50 Ω coax or twisted pair cable can be connected using
the center pin to the TC+ (Timecode Signal), and the outer conductor (signal return) to the closest signal
ground/return pin of the I/O connector.
Differential (DIFF) signals are considered balanced, and should be distributed with twisted shielded pair, Twinax,
or Triax cables if possible. Differential signals which use the TC+ and TC- signals, may also be distributed with an
additional signal reference /return. If a separate shield is present on the wire bundle, it may also be connected
to the signal ground of the system which may be the outer shell of the connector, or if using the 25 pin Terminal
Block adapter, connection # 26, to reduce noise. However, the shield wire should be terminated on the end of
the cable which bypasses the noise.
2.3.1
Output Timecode — Single Remote Display
Channel A is the Primary Time Code Output. Connect the remote timecode display (such as TCDS26)
to primary time code output at pins 10 ,11, and 23 on the external 25-pin I/O connector, using the
guidelines for SE and DIFF signals of the prior section.
The DISPLAY key will now allow both channels to be viewed remotely on the single display.
2.3.2
Output Timecode — Dual Remote Displays
Channel B is the Secondary Time Code Output.
Connect the first remote timecode display (Channel A) to primary TC output as described in the previous
section for single remote display.
Connect the second remote timecode display (Channel B) to secondary TC output using Pins 12,13,
and 25 on the I/O connector, using the guidelines for SE and DIFF signals of the prior section.
The SHIFT-DISPLAY key should now be pressed to lock the outputs on Channel A and Channel B,
respectively, assuming the ‘A’ LED is lighted on the DISPLAY key.
The RC1000 can independently generate these time code formats on each channel based upon its current reference time
or time code input:
SMPTE 24, 25, 30, or drop frame
The timecode connections should be made with shielded cable, if
possible, especially if long distances are separating the RC1000
and the remote display(s).
