Noise bars are "rolling" up

Hum bars (ground loop) are caused by a difference in the ground potential of any two or

or down in the output

more devices connected to your signal path. This difference is compensated by routing

that voltage difference through any available interconnection, including your video cables.

equipment in your signal path!

 

 

 

Check the following to remove hum bars:

 

1.

Confirm that all interconnected equipment is connected to the same phase of power, if

 

 

possible.

 

2.

Remove equipment connected to that phase that might introduce noise, such as motors,

 

 

generators, etc.

 

3.

Disconnect all cables and reconnect them one at a time until the ground loop

 

 

reappears.

 

4.

Disconnect the affected cable and replace it, or insert an isolation device (opto isolator

 

 

or transformer) in the signal path.
