Displaying an Analogue Video Signal

VIDEO IN

 is configured by default as 

INT

 (internal), i.e. the displays show on the signal 

meter are decoded from the signal at the RF input.
If 

EXT

 (external) is configured, the displays of the composite video input are displayed on 

the measurement interface.
To display an analogue video signal:
1.  Connect an analogue video signal via the Cinch socket.
2.  Perform steps 1 – 3 to select 

VIDEO IN

, see 

Helligkeit ändern.

 

The 

VIDEO IN

 value is active (highlighted blue).

3.  Turn the rotary wheel to select
