Genlock Input Source
Genlock is a term used to describe the process by which one video signal is synchronized to another of the same
timing and format. If desired, the SmartView outputs can be Genlocked to an externally applied RS-170A (CCIR) type
video signal with color burst. The output of the video sync generator utilized to drive the SmartView must be
connected to the BNC connector labeled GENLOCK located on the SmartView rear panel, bottom row, to the left of
the Y/C (s-video) connector. Adjustments have been provided within the GENLOCK Phase Adj menu to allow the
phase of the output horizontal sync and color sub carrier to be adjusted with respect to the input Genlock signal.
These adjustments allow the user to compensate for delays inherent in different system configurations. To configure
the SmartView to Genlock, a Genlock source must be connected prior to enabling GENLOCK. If no source is
connected, the output will behave erratically.
