damaged power cords immediately.
This product is grounded through the grounding conductor of the power cord. To avoid electric
shock, do not remove or modify the contacts on the plug.
Prevent the power cord from being walked on, pinched, or abraded.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture.
Remove jewelry, such as rings, watches, or necklaces before servicing this equipment.
Product Damage Precautions
The TSS-2470 Time Delay contains hard disk drives and other fragile electronic and mechanical
devices. While this product is very reliable, it is still vulnerable to shock. Handle it with care, and
exercise caution not to drop or bump the recorder as damage to internal components may result.
Turn off power before moving the Time Delay.
Do not obstruct air vents. Maintain an ambient temperature below 30C (86F).
Clean only with a soft cloth dampened with water. Do not spray cleaners or solvents directly on
the product.
WARNING:
Do not ingest the battery, Chemical Burn Hazard
This product contains a coin/button cell battery. If the coin/button cell battery is
swallowed, it can cause sever internal burns in just 2 hours and can lead to death.
Keep new and used batteries away from children.
If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop using the product and keep it
away from children. If you thing batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside
any part of the body, seek immediate medical attention.
CAUTION:
Replace battery only with the same, or equivalent, battery type. Follow all local laws
regarding the disposal of BR and CR Lithium batteries. Batteries should be fully
discharged prior to disposal.
6 TSS-2470 Time Delay
CAUTION:
Never shutdown the Time Delay by removing the power cords. Doing so may cause
errors in the hard disk array. Should this happen, the array can be reinitialized without
any data loss; however, the process may take several hours. Shutdown the system only
by momentarily pressing the front panel reset button, or through the On-Screen user
interface.

Introduction & Features 7
TSS-2470 Time Delay
Introduction
There are two versions of the 360 Systems Time Delay. The TSS-2470 Time Delay and the
TSS-2470 Variable Time Delay. Both offer a high-quality program delay for television
broadcast, satellite delivery, and other applications requiring a user-settable delay time for
video, audio, and ancillary data. Applications for the delay include:
Compensation for time zone differences, where a program is received at a different time
than when it needs to air.
Program origination delays, where content is time-shifted prior to transmission or
distribution.
“+1” channels that allow cable casters to offer multiple feeds of the same program
content to maximize channel exposure with limited additional cost. Viewers can choose
to see a variety of different shows in their chosen viewing time, or see an immediate
repeat of a show that interested them simply by changing the channel.
The TSS-2470 model can be used in a disaster recovery system where a 24 hour delay
provides a guarantee of airing appropriate content for the time of day.
The TSS-2470II variable delay server can be used as a mountain minute delay server or in
other application where the delay may need to be reset without loss of the recorded
material.
The TSS-2470 can be thought of as a black box that records video, audio, and specific
ancillary data information; it then delays the playback of the program by a user-selectable
time period. Whatever goes in comes out later.
The TSS-2470 Time Delay will operate as a set-and-forget box with no user intervention. On
restarting after a power failure, it will again start delaying the input according to the most
recent user settings. The TSS-2470II can be set to an initial delay and then changed on-the-
fly to any point within the recorded time. The delay time is user-programmable from 30
seconds to 24 hours. The programmed delay interval is frame-accurate over an indefinite
8 TSS-2470 Time Delay
time period; if several Time Delays are fed identical input signals, they will remain in sync
indefinitely.
The TSS-2470 is convertible from an SD delay server to an HD delay server with no additional
hardware or software. It employs high quality, HD video encoding at 100 Mb/s or SD
encoding at 30 Mb/s which is ideal for this application, providing superior final image quality
when used in conjunction with other codec processes such as MPEG or H.264 for satellite
transmission and cable distribution.
16 embedded audio channels are provided.
Vertical Interval Ancillary (VANC) data is reproduced. The payload capacity is set by default to
4K per frame or field and is adjustable.
Introduction & Features 9
TSS-2470 Time Delay Features
Functions in a stand-alone configuration with no external machine controls, and requires
no third-party software.
Operates unattended for long periods of time. No operator intervention or file
maintenance required for continuous operation.
All settings are non-volatile, allowing unattended restart on power-up. The unit
automatically reconfigures itself for the last-specified delay time, and re-enters the
record/playback cycle.
System configuration is accomplished through a GUI interface using a local keyboard,
mouse and VGA monitor.
Allows user to specify a frame-accurate delay time, such that multiple units will play back
in frame-accurate sync when fed identical input video.
RAID-5 drive array protects stored data against a single drive failure.
1 HD-SDI/SD-SDI program input.
1 E-E monitor output, 1 delayed program output. HD-SDI/SD-SDI connectors provided.
Records video in 10-bit, at 100 Mb/s for visually lossless picture quality.
Records 8 stereo pairs SDI embedded. (4 in SD).
Synchronizes to video input, or to an external reference.
Upon loss of input video, records black and uses internal reference until input is restored.
Outputs black and audio silence during the recording interval preceding the desired
program output delay.
Captures and plays VANC data.
Front panel status LEDs: network, system, power.
1 rack-unit (1¾”) height. Redundant, forced-air cooling.
10 TSS-2470 Time Delay
TSS-2470 II Time Delay Additional Features
Same feature set as the TSS-2470 Time Delay but with the added benefit of being able to
reset the delay time without a restart.
Four “quick set” delay time buttons for setting or resetting a delay time.
Transport controls over the delay feed such as Pause, Jog, FF, REW, and Play are available
throughout the maximum recorded delay time.
