Operation

3Equalize adjustment — This control is similar to a TV’s sharpness control. The equalization adjustment compensates for losses due to capacitance over long cable runs. The control adjusts the peaking, through multiple turns, between 0 and +4dB.

Operation — With a waveform monitor connected to the far end of one of the output cables, adjust the equalization so that the color burst ranges between -20 IRE and +20 IRE.

If no waveform monitor is available, adjust the equalization to restore the frequency response and achieve the best possible image.

The equalize adjustment is a 15-turn potentiometer with a soft mechanical stop at the high or low end. If you have reached the high or low end of the adjustment, the potentiometer makes a clicking sound as you turn it, and no change is apparent on the display.

The level and equalization adjustments affect all six output channels simultaneously and equally. For maximum effectiveness of the level and equalization controls, all display devices should be connected with cables of equal length.

The level and equalization adjustments have no affect on the buffered loopout, which should not be run the long distances as the amplified outputs.
