Notes on multi-camera system

Perform the following to prevent flicker when switching between two or more cameras connected to a video switcher:

• Supply the same sync signal to the GENLOCK IN

connectors on each camera adaptor (see below).

Adjust the subcarrier and horizontal synchronization phases for all cameras.
