Video output (encoder output) signal adjustments

After this system has been connected, the video output signal (ENCODER OUT) must be adjusted if AB roll editing (editing using two source machines) using an editor, for instance, is to be error-free and accurate. (This adjustment must be repeated when one of the connecting cables has been replaced and whenever the connections are changed.)

The adjustment procedure using this unit is outlined below.

1

2

Check the connections. (See page 22.)

Set the REMOTE/LOCAL switch @2on the front panel bottom section to the adjustment position (LOCAL).

REMOTE: For adjusting the video output signals using an external encoder remote controller.

LOCAL: For adjusting the video output signals using this unit.

3

Adjust the source machine independently.

3-1When using the preset values

Set the PRESET/MANUAL switches of the VIDEO LEVEL, CHROMA LEVEL, SETUP and HUE controls to PRESET.

3-2When adjusting the video output signals without using the preset values

1 Play back a cassette tape on which standard color bar signals have been recorded.

2Adjust the controls in such a way that the waveforms on the waveform monitor (WFM) and vectorscope (VSC) resemble those shown in the figures below.

ASetup level

Adjust the control to eliminate deviation.

BVideo level

Adjust this level to 100 IRE.

CChroma level and hue

Adjust the two controls in such a way that the light spot of the vector waveforms comes inside the rectangular grid mark.
