CONNECTIONS
(VZ-15b and VZ-35b)
For live image projection it is reccomended to use the Y/C output as the signal passes a sharpness
enhancer. It even looks better than with the RGBS output of the VZ-35b. Only the Component output (YUV)
of the VZ-35b offers a better quality than the Y/C-output.
Composite video output (#32)
Y/C output (S-VHS - #37)
RGBS output (#40)
Only use this output if the other unit does not have Y/C or RGBS input. As this is the oldest standard, the
quality is not as good as with the other outputs.
The VZ-35b offers a true RGBS-signal. Red, Green and Blue are directly connected to each of
the 3 chips of the camera. As a result this output offers the best color reproduction. This signal is
also reccommended for image processing as it is the original (unprocessed) signal.
(On the VZ-35b this output can be switched to YUV - see below)
VZ-35b:
VZ-15b: On the VZ-15b the RGBS-signal is actually only a converted Y/C-signal. (As the VZ-15b has a 1-chip
camera and no 1-chip camera has a true RGBS output). This output is intended for units which do
not have Y/C-input. The quality is better than composite video but not better than Y/C !
Most RGB-monitors or projectors use a separate Sync connection. For units without a separate Sync connection
the Sync Signal can be added to the Green-signal.
Component output (#40 - VZ-35b only)
The connections are the following: Red=R-Y, Green=Y, Blue=B-Y
the following keys: SAVE (#12), IRIS dark (#19) and IRIS bright (#20).
The RGBS output of the VZ-35b can be switched to Component output (YUV) by simultanously pressing
Preview video output (#31)
This is a composite video output for a control monitor. It's the only output that is not switched off, when
using the IMAGE OFF key (#21).
Do not use this output for the audience's monitor or projectior!
The "
Sync on green
" function can be switched on and off by simultaneously pressing the following keys:
IMAGE ON (#22), FOCUS + (#17) and FOCUS - (#18). The factory setting is "Sync on green - off".
If "Sync on green" is switched on, make sure that no separate sync cable is connected - the result
could be a picture with too much green!
