Rear-Panel Connectors

The following is an overview of rear-panel connectors.Figure 2-4 shows the 1750A rear panel.

Loop-Through Inputs

HINPUTs A, A1, A2, A3, B, B1, B2, and B3 are passive

loop-through video inputs, compensated for 75 Ω. The front-panel INPUT switch settings determine which channel(s) are displayed. The eight inputs can be configured for composite or component video signals.

HEXT REF is a 75 Ω compensated loop-through synchronization input. Internal or external reference is selected through the front-panel REF EXT switch; the LED lights to show when external is selected. The instrument will operate from external references of composite video or black burst.

Outputs

HPIX OUT is a 75 Ω compensated output of the video signal selected by the front-panel INPUT switches. This signal has bright-up in LINE SELECT mode, and is used to drive a picture monitor. PIX OUT strobe is not present below line 11.

Multi-Pin Connectors

HREMOTE is a 25-pin subminiature D-type connector which uses TTL signal or ground closures to provide remote control of many front-panel functions. For more information, see page 3-25 and page B-1.

HRS232 is a 9-pin subminiature ‘D-type connector that provides a serial interface for remote control. The RS232 interface is not supported at the time of this writing.
