7.6.1. Adding the NTSC Setup Pedestal
Video/SID
Composite NTSC analog video may have a 7.5 IRE pedestal while
4:2:2 SDI video does not. This control, when set to
On
, will add the
pedestal and re-scale the video accordingly. The setup pedestal
should not be present on composite video when operating in Japan.

7.6.2. Line 21 Processing
Video/SID
Closed captioning has been defined to NOT have a 7.5 IRE pedestal,
but it is placed on the first active line of video where there may be a
pedestal. The upstream closed captioning encoder should not have
generated a setup pedestal. When encoding composite video with
properly keyed captioning, a pedestal must not be generated.
This control, when set to
Off
, will not create the 7.5 IRE pedestal on
line 21. This is the default state for properly generated captioning.
When set to
On
, the 7.5 IRE pedestal will be generated on line 21.
Use this state when there are no input captions.
Note: The
On
condition will only take effect if the
NTSC Setup
Pedestal
control is set to
On
.
Blank
is used to remove captioning from line 21.
If you need independent field 1 and field 2 on/off control of setup, set
this control to
Off
and then use the controls in the
VBI Processing
Menu.
Note: The captions are
Blank
ed from the main, high quality, output
only. This will allow the monitoring of upstream captioning on the
monitoring output
even when it is not desirable to have them passed
downstream on the program video.

7.6.3. Colour Bars
Video/SID
Internally generated colour bars may be turned on to aid in monitor
calibration. To make sure that this control is not left on accidentally,
this parameter is not included in the preset management.
Warning: You cannot change the output phasing when the colour bars
are turned on. Be careful when adjusting genlock references when this
is turned on.
