Test:

Color Video Performance

Purpose:

This general purpose pattern can be used to check

 

the video handling capabilities of most parts of a

 

television system.

Method:

When viewed on a TV screen, all of the colors should

 

be correct and in the order shown. The hue and

 

intensity of each bar should be uniform over the

 

entire bar.

 

The image can be used with a TV waveform analyzer

 

to check the performance of a video system. Indivdual

 

scan lines of each image, as they would appear on

 

a waveform analyzer, are shown on the following

 

page.

 

The image is quite effective when used with a TV

 

vectorscope to see how a video system handles an

 

encoded color signal. Vectorscope signatures of both

 

NTSC and PAL versions of the image can be found

 

on the following pages.
