2720 Sync swing calibration out of range

One or more of the analog sync swing calibration factors are out of range. These parameters are not actually part of a Format that is stored in memory. They are system level parameters that affect how all analog Formats are read from memory and into the hardware. The parameter settings are maintained while the 801GP is turned off.

■Re-initialize your generator’s memory.

■Contact Quantum Data for further assistance.

2721 NTSC requires pedestal (801GX Only)

2722 NTSC pedestal out of range (801GX Only)

2741 Digital video type selection not supported

The generator does not support the given digital video signal type. Note – the 801GF, 801GC-ISA and 801GF-ISA generators do not have digital video outputs.

■Select a valid digital video signal type.

2742 Invalid digital video type

An invalid digital video type exists in the file.

■Edit the Video kind setting.

2743 Digital video polarity must be positive

An invalid digital video polarity setting exists in the file.

■The file cannot be corrected with the editor. Create a new file.

2745 Cannot have analog and digital video

An invalid digital video type exists in the file.

■Edit the Video kind setting.

2747 Analog video signal type invalid

An invalid analog video type exists in the file.

■Edit the Video kind setting.
