Enabling EDH functions
EDH functions may be selected to be ‘pass through or OFF’ or ‘include EDH functions or
ON’.
In de-embedder only mode, the EDH functions checks EDH incoming performance, but
does not alter EDH insert CRC values.
If ‘Mark for Deletion’, ‘Blank HANC’, or embed mode are in place then EDH CRC
values will no longer be valid. In this case, new EDH insert CRC values are calculated
and inserted into the EDH data block in each TV field.
The EDH menu is obtained with Menu lever 5 ON (DOWN), all other levers UP (OFF
)
and the SEL switch in position C for side 1 and D for side 2. Turn the shaft encoder to
select between ‘EDH on’ and ‘EDHoff’.
