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.
1Check the connections. (See page 22.)
2Set the REMOTE/LOCAL switch @2 on 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.
3Adjust the source machine independently.
3-1 When using the preset values
Set the PRESET/MANUAL switches of the VIDEO LEVEL, CHROMA LEVEL,
SETUP and HUE controls to PRESET.
3-2 When adjusting the video output signals without using the preset values
1Play 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.
