(3) Character mixing (S901-4)
Set S901-4 to ON to superimpose the same characters as
those displayed on the viewfinder-screen in the output sig-
nal from the TEST OUT terminal. This is a convenient facility
for adjustment because the adjustment menu and screen
can be displayed on an external monitor.
(4) Color-matrix adjustment (S901-6)
Set S901-6 to ON to view the color-matrix adjustment-mode
screen on the
Viewfinder-screen.
This mode makes it possible to set color-matrix parameters
in details (see section 1.12).
* Note that the color-matrix adjustment is not a normal adjust-
ment item. It is usually not required to adjust the color-ma-
trix because this has been set to the optimum level before
shipment.
* In case a color-matrix adjustment becomes necessary be-
cause of a user’s request, it should be performed in accord-
ance with the description in section 1.2.
(5) Setup (S901-7): NTSC only
Set S901-7 to ON or OFF to select whether or not the out-
put signal setup is included in the TEST OUT and MONITOR
OUT terminals output.
(Note that the signal recorded onto tape is not affected by
the position of this switch. The signal is always recorded
without the setup information.)
As changing the position of this switch does not alter the
signal level, it is not necessary to re-adjust the signal record-
ing according to the position of this switch. This switch is
effective only on the camera video output. With the video
signal obtained by playing back a previously recorded tape,
whether the setup is included or not can be selected with
the item “SETUP” in the Service Menu (see section 1.13.3).
(6) Function setting (S901-8)
This switch is used to set the functions shown in Table 1-9-
1(2).
This switch is usually used to switch the defaults of the do-
mestic and export-oriented models.
Table 1-9-1(2)
* The L/M/H positions of GAIN can also be set individually
using the [CAMERA MENU].

NOTE
• To correct any white blemish interference produced after
the factory shipment, perform the “ERROR DETECT
START” described on the next page. Be sure to warm up
the camera by leaving it on for more than 2 hours before
performing the “ERROR DETECT START”.
• The white blemish correction is performed with the lens
iris closed or with the lens cap on. In normal use, the lens
iris closes automatically when performing a white blemish
correction. However in a case when the lens cable is dis-
connected and the lens iris cannot be closed, “ERROR DE-
TECT FAIL” will be displayed on the viewfinder and the
white blemish correction cannot be executed. Before per-
forming the white blemish correction again, be sure to first
close the lens.
