>HD/SD SDI OUT connectors [1], [2], [3/PM], and [4/PM]

These connectors (BNC) are for outputting SDI signals in HDTV and SDTV formats.

The HD/SD output mode can be selected by setting a menu item. The output mode can be switched between the [1] and [2] combination and between the [3/PM] and [4/PM] combination. SDI output from [3/PM] and [4/PM] can be switched to main line image output or picture monitor output by setting a menu item or by ROP control.

Refer to “SETTING1 Screen” of <Operations and Settings> (pages 11 and 27).

?RETURN IN connectors

[HD/SD SDI 1] and [HD/SD SDI 2]

These connectors (BNC) are for inputting SDI signals for return images in HDTV and SDTV formats.

The HD/SD input mode can be selected by setting a menu item.

Refer to “SETTING1 Screen” of <Operations and Settings> (pages 11 and 27).

[VBS]

This connector (BNC) is for inputting analog composite signals for return images in SDTV format.

PROMPT connector [IN]

This connector (BNC) is for inputting SD analog composite signals for the prompter.

AVBS connector [OUT/PM]

This connector (BNC) is for outputting analog composite signals in SDTV format.

Output can be switched to main line image output or picture monitor output by setting a menu item.

Refer to “SETTING1 Screen” of <Operations and Settings> (pages 11 and 27).

BREF connectors

These connectors (BNC) are for inputting reference signals.

Black burst (BB) signals and tri-level sync signals can be input, and the type of signals input is recognized automatically.

When no cable is connected to the loop-through output connector, the connector is automatically terminated at 75 Ω. Connecting a cable to this connector releases 75 Ω termination.

When a cable is connected to the loop-through output connector, be sure to connect the other end of the cable to a connector.
