168 Chapter 5 Working with Formats
New Format - Timing Tab (Bottom Panel)
The bottom panel of the Timing tab in the Format Editor is shown below.
The table that follows describes each of the fields in the panel.
Indicates that the values in this field are settable in the
current configuration.
Red Field Indicates that the fields are in the read only mode.
These fields will show a change in value when the value
in a field affecting these fields is modified.
Green Field Indicates that the fields are in the read/write mode.
When you make a change and hit the enter key new
values will be calculated.
Black Field Indicates that the fields can be modified directly and are
calculated when other related fields are modified.
Gray Field Indicates that the fields are disabled because the Entry
Units are selected such that the fields are not used.
However these fields will show a change when the
value in a field affecting these fields is modified.
Field Description
Serration with
Adjustment
Sets the length of the serration period on composite video to a given
number of pixels from the format’s nominal default value as required by
some military STANAG video formats. Valid range is in pixels with integer
values from 0 to less than HSPW in pixels. Parameter: HVSA
H to V Delay Displays the current value for the pixel delay between horizontal and vertical
sync pulses. Parameter: HVPD?
Horizontal Broad
Pulse Delay
Equalization Before Establishes the width of the equalization interval before the vertical sync
pulse in each field whenever a serrated and equalized sync type is selected
via either ACST or DSCT command and the SSST command. Valid values
are 0 and number of lines after vertical sync before video. Parameter:
EQUB
Equalization After Establishes the width of the equalization interval after the vertical sync pulse
in each field whenever a serrated and equalized sync type is selected via
either ACST or DSCT command and the SSST command. Valid values are
0 and number of lines after vertical sync before video. Parameter: EQUA.
