eCable Compensation Luminance Control

[CABLE COMP Y]

Used to adjust the Y (luminance) signal level of video output signals as appropriate to the length of the cable between the pan/tilt head and the Multiport Hub. First, select a camera with the Control Switch on the Multi- Hybrid Control Panel, and set the Camera Control Switch to the ON position. Set the MODE Switch on the Multi-Hybrid Control Panel to BAR, then output color bar signals from the camera, and connect a waveform monitor or vectorscope, for example, to the video out- put. If the cable between the pan/tilt head and the Multiport Hub is longer than 300 meters, set the Cable Compensation Switch on the pan/tilt head to the ON position in advance. (For details, refer to the Operating Procedures at page 8 or the Operating Instructions for the Pan/tilt Head.) First, adjust the Y (luminance) signal level with one of [1] to [5] CABLE COMP Y Controls e that corresponds to the selected camera, then adjust the C (chrominance) signal level with CABLE COMP C Control r. Repeat these steps to adjust the video out- put of the Multiport Hub to the camera output level. After the adjustment, set the Camera Control Switch on the Multi-Hybrid Control Panel back to the OFF posi- tion.

Note: Turning this control changes not only the Y sig- nal level but also the entire video level.
