4.4.3. Configuring the SDI Video Test Generator Outputs (SDTG, HDTG, 3GTG options)
There are four menus to control each of the SDI video test generators. These menus are all identical to
each other and for the sake of simplicity, only the SDI TG 1 menu will be described in the manual.
4.4.3.1. Selecting the SDI Test Generator Test Pattern
The Signal menu item is used to select the test pattern for the SDI test
generator output. The test patterns available will depend on the link

Caution: This menu item is a live control. Changes made by pressing
the and buttons or rotating the control knob will immediately affect
the picture output of the SDI test generator.
See section 4.4.5
for a complete list of test signals included with the
5601MSC firmware and those that can be added by loading a
CompactFlash card and inserting it into the unit.
