Isolate
The isolate function disconnects the XCU intercom from the studio system.
Levels
In the four-wire mode the menu gives you a choice of either a 0 dB or a +6 dB signal level for
each intercom channel. In the two-wire mode this level is always set to 0 dB.
You can also set sidetone (feedback) volume levels for both Engineering and Production
channels in this menu.
3.6 Timing
3.6.1 Synchronization
To synchronize the XCU apply a valid reference (HD Tri-Level sync or SD Black Burst) signal to
the REF IN BNC connector at the back panel.
3.6.2 Shifting output signals
All main HD Video, SD and monitoring output signals coming from the XCU are in phase. Still,
due to different cable lengths or other delays, the signals from different XCUs can be out of
phase when they are connected to a video switcher or router.
This variation in phase can be compensated for in the XCU by using horizontal phase (H-phase)
adjustment. Go the
INSTALL
>
TIMING
menu and adjust the
H-PHASE
item.
The phase shift can be further adjusted in the
INSTALL
>
TIMING
>
SHIFT
menu. Use the
PIXELS
and
LINES
items to shift the signals over one or more pixels and one or more lines,
respecively. The maximum shift is one frame.
