Timing and General
1. Cycle through all input video sources, and observe composite, S-Video, analog
component and SDI outputs on appropriate waveform monitors to ensure they are
within spec.
2. Select the Horizontal option in the Timing Setup menu. Use the control knob to
adjust this option to line up the output sync falling edge with the black reference
sync edge.
3. Select the Subcarrier option in the Timing Setup menu. Use the control knob to
adjust this option to line up the output burst with the black reference burst.
DV Module Check
1. Install the DV I/O Module, as detailed in Appendix C, “Installation of Hardware
