12 EDITING SYSTEM PHASE ADJUSTMENT
System phase/subcarrier phase/SCH phase The system phase can be varied with the
●To adjust the phase with reference to sync phase, follow the system phase adjustment procedure described below.
●To adjust the phase with reference to subcarrier phase, adjust the system phase as described below, then adjust the subcarrier phase.
●To vary sync and burst phase (SCH), adjust it with <SCH PHASE> in the video control menu.
System phase (SYSTEM PHASE) adjustment
System phase adjustment matches the VCR’s blanking phase with the switcher’s correct blanking phase. Switch between the switcher reference signal and the input VCR signal and adjust until there is no change in phase position. Without this adjustment, video distortion occurs after completion of fading during switching.
