6.4.2.3 OUTPUT
VIDEO CONNECTION
This drop-down menu allows the operator to select between Component, Y/C, Composite and SDI
output for 3P
LAY
.
Some output types do not support high definition resolutions. Thus, the options available vary
depending on whether or not the current session is standard or high definition, as follows below:
SD Sessions: Component, Y/C, Composite
HD Sessions: Component
(It’s worth noting that SDI output does not need to be manually selected here – it is always active.)
Hint: See Sections 4.4 and 6.5 for information on 3P
LAY
’s physical a/v connections.
CENTER FREQUENCY
This setting is applied when a genlock reference signal is not in use. To adjust the setting, supply
color bars to a 3P
LAY
input and pass the video output to a vectorscope. The vectorscope display is
completely stable when Center Frequency is properly adjusted.
6.4.2.4 GENLOCK
3P
LAY
’s Genlock feature allows it to ‘lock’ to a reference video signal (house sync, such as ‘black
burst’) supplied to its Genlock input connector. This synchronizes 3P
LAY
output to other external
equipment locked to the same reference.
