Working together with various TV broadcasters and studios, Plura developed the Multiple Time Display sys-tem (MTD). With its flexible design, the multi-timer and display system can easily be used in many different types of applications. Even multiple studios can be interconnected and share all generated information. A MTD system consists of a central generator, digital displays and/or analog clocks coupled with a timer control unit. The central generator generates a specially encoded LTC signal we call LTC (MTD). In this LTC (MTD) there are six different times (or timers) available, such as real-time, different time zones, dates and various up or down-counting timers. The LTC (MTD) includes all six times in its user bits. Distributed to a digital display, one of the six available times or timers can be selected to be visualized. The Timer Control Unit enables an easy submission of time and timers as well as a status indication.
