screen.
• “WRONG REFERENCE” will appear when the reference
signal format does not correspond with the input signal
format.
• The RGB/component output is recommended for editing. If
you use the composite video output, a frame synchronizer
may be needed to adjust the phase to the reference signal.
For the SC/H (Subcarrier to Horizontal) adjustment, see
