• Signals from some home game machines

•Blue background screen or gray background screen from a consumer VCR

•Pictures played at a speed other than normal by a VCR that does not have the TBC (Time Base Corrector)

1VIDEO OUT1 connector (BNC-type)

Outputs composite video signals. Connect to the input connector of an external monitor. If the SUPERIMPOSE switch 3 has been set to ON, text data (time data, menus and alarm messages) is superimposed.

For details on the superimposed data, see “Text data superimposed on the LCD monitor” on page 17 (GB).

Notes

•When a video sync signal of the EE pictures are output to the VIDEO OUT1 connector, sync and burst are not synchronized.

•The video signal output from this connector is not synchronized with the video signal output from the line-out connectors (COMPONENT OUTPUT, S VIDEO OUT, VIDEO OUT2). When the unit is in the EE mode, the output pictures are delayed by several lines. When played, the picture is not externally synchronized — only vertically synchronized. You cannot adjust the sync and subcarrier phases.

•If DV input has been selected, color and luminance may be distorted in the EE mode, depending on the monitor type.
