The NanoLockit starts up with muted output at last
selected frame rate (default 25 fps).
To activate the LEMO Output and to jam other
Lockits with the internal Real Time Clock (RTC),
proceed with step 3.
To adjust the RTC and frame rate, proceed with step
2A. To jam from an external device, proceed with
step 2B.
The goal: syncing timecode (TC) and frame rate (FPS).

Set the internal clock of the NanoLockit
To set the RTC and the
frame rate, use the Lockit-
Toolbox software (PC and

ckit.com).
NOTE: On start a valid RTC will be indicated by
LEDs flashing red/green
, a lost RTC by flas-
hing red

Set the internal clock of the NanoLockit
To jam your NanoLockit from an
external device, connect it with
the appropriate timecode cable.
If successful, the LED will flash
