Setting Up Gen Lock with Your Control Keypad

You can adjust the Gen Lock settings to synchronize all video sources based on the sync pulses from one source, such as a remote

camera. When you switch between cameras, you may detect a flicker on your monitor. Adjusting the Gen Lock settings enable you

to remove the flicker for smooth transitions between cameras.

Place the Gen Lock Mode Setup card over the Keypad when adjusting Gen Lock. It
