Product Description

Betso WTCS-1 Wireless Timecode Slate

The Betso WTCS-1 wireless time code slate with backlit writing panel was designed for use in the modern video production environment.

It is Wi-Fi enabled and has a bright LED timecode display which can also show metadata from the Movieslate 8 app.

The RF protocol incorporates frequency hopping spread spectrum technology to enable an operating range of up to 500m in line of sight so it can reliably communicate with other Betso devices in a network.

The brightness of the 1" LED display can be adjusted manually or automatically and it has a special anti reflective surface. The brightness of the backlit writing panel can also be adjusted and protective covers are available which cover the whole of the front face and are easily replaceable.
