Y/C Output

better S-VHS quality. The signal is available on the same pair
of connectors from which the two composite video signals
are outputted. To switch between composite and Y/C, use
the C

The LED indicates if composite video is on:
Y/C is selected when the LED is off.
There are also ”normal video” and ”video with data” signals
available from the same pair of connectors. To switch
between ”normal video” and ”video with data”, use the
Y/C key
§ on the control panel.
The LED next to the symbol indicates ”normal video”,
the LED next to the symbol ”video with data”.
The ”normal video” output supplies almost no inserted
electronic information. Only a flashing bar at the button
left corner of the video image indicates a running film camera.
The ”video with data” output supplies additional inserted
data such as format marks or time code.
Adapters from the two BNC connectors to a standard Y/C
connector are available in many video shops.
Note: For a standard black and white output, use only
the Y Signal with or without data.
