Installation and Operation, cont’d

11Color/Tint control button (Col/Tnt) — This button selects the color and tint adjustment for the output display. The adjustment is made using the horizontal Adjust and vertical Adjust adjustment knobs. The adjustment range of color is 0 to 127, and tint is 0 to 255. See the “Image Adjustments” section in this chapter.

The Color/Tint control affects only composite video and S-video.

12Zoom control button — This button selects the zoom-in and zoom-out adjustment for the output display. The adjustment is made using the horizontal Adjust and vertical Adjust adjustment knobs. Turning either adjustment knob clockwise will zoom in on the image, and turning either knob counterclockwise will zoom out on the image. See the “Image Adjustments” section in this chapter.

13Detail control button — This button selects the image detail (sharpness) adjustment for the output display. The adjustment is made using the horizontal Adjust and vertical Adjust knobs. The sharpness adjustment compensates for long cable runs. The horizontal Adjust knob controls the horizontal filter and the vertical Adjust knob controls the vertical filter. The adjustment range of each knob is 0 to 7. See the “Image Adjustments” section in this chapter.

LCD menu display and controls

14LCD — This screen displays configuration menus and status information. See the “Menus, Configuration, and Adjustments” section in this chapter for details.

15Menu button — Use this button to enter and move through the main menu system in the USP 405. See the “Menus, Configuration, and Adjustments” section in this chapter for details. This button is always lit yellow.

18Vertical Adjust () knob — Rotate this knob to scroll through menu options and make adjustments.

Genlock and Vertical Interval Switching

For vertical interval switching (to allow clean switching between signals from several devices during the vertical blanking period of each signal), a composite sync signal can be applied at the Genlock In connector, and can also be passed to another device via the Genlock Out connector.

If the genlock connectors are used only for vertical interval switching, no horizontal or subcarrier phase adjustments are required.

Genlock setup

Genlock differs from simple vertical interval switching in that an external device (a black burst generator) generates a reference sync signal for the system, and every device that uses that signal has its output signal’s horizontal and subcarrier phases adjusted to exactly match that of the generator. This allows precise timing and full synchronization. Genlocked systems produce cleaner switches between inputs than do those without this type of synchronization.
