Chapter 5

The Sync RapidDome can adjust over a range of approximately 270 
electrical degrees. It is possible that the required adjustment could be 
trying to use the 90 degree 'hole' that cannot be used. To synchronize 
such a camera, simply rotate the PHASE pot which is located on the 
vertical circuit board inside the RapidDome that is being adjusted by 
about a third of a turn, then repeat the adjustment from the RapidView.

If the CAMERA TO ADJUST is a sync RapidDome and the required         
adjustment is in the 'hole' described above, then the SYNC                 
DIFFERENCE will show a constant value each time you attempt the 
adjustment.

AUTO SYNC OF ALL CAMERAS

If a sync RapidView is used in a system that has several sync Rapid-
Domes, they can all be adjusted together as follows:

Select the ADJUST CAMERA SYNC menu and select the camera to 
be used as the REFERENCE CAMERA. Press' AUTO'. The Rapid-
View will select all the cameras in turn, do the measurements, and 
send the adjustment commands to all the cameras in the system. The 
display will show ADJUSTING SYNCS after a few seconds it will 
display FINISHED.

When the auto sync of the whole system is in progress the pictures will 
flash as the cameras are selected. The second measurement on each is 
not made and missing cameras do not cause an error message.

You will find it useful to use the 'PHASE' pot to deliberately set the 
sync to be wrong so you can observe it being corrected by the Rapid-
View.

During manufacture and test at VCL, the sync RapidDomes will all be 
set to a consistent phase setting with respect to AC+ (we shall define 
which of the two AC power supply wires is to be called AC+). This 
means that if a system of sync RapidDomes is installed and care is tak-
en to be consistent in the choice of pins used for connecting the AC 
supply, then the cameras will already be synchronized (assuming that 
all the power supplies are driven from the same phase of the mains. 
This could be useful if the system does not use the new RapidView
It is possible to use the PHASE pots in the RapidDome to  synchronize 
the cameras manually, using an oscilloscope. But if the range of ad-
