Time Zones and the Autotiming Window
Each ME has a fixed amount of delay from its input to output. To allow
reentries to remain in time, ME timings are staggered such that the up
stream ME outputs are earlier in time than down stream ME inputs. A 5 ME
production switcher has six time zones to accommodate reentry through all
the MEs to any output. When all MEs are cascaded into each other, the most
up stream ME is in the earliest time zone. Aux buses and other outputs are
always in the latest time zone. The overlapping range of all the autotimers
is the published autotiming window for the switcher.
Figure 69. Production Switcher Time Zones
Any source fed to the switcher must be within the autotiming range of all
six time zones. If not, the source will be in time on some MEs but not on
others. As illustrated in the figure, a source centered in one time zone’s
autotiming range can be too early or late for other switcher time zones.
If a signal falls just outside the autotiming window, that image will be
shifted one line up or down. On SD systems a shift of one line could be
