INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the MC-3.3 SMART CLOCK VR, SD/HD Video Sync
Master Clock Generator, from MUTEC GmbH.
Please keep this manual for future reference!
General Function Description
The MC-3.3 SMART CLOCK VR is an universal and high accurate SD/HD video
sync master clock generator for standard definition (SD) bi-level and high
definition (HD) tri-level video sync signals.
The unit provides different high-stable SD video and HD tri-level sync refer-
ence signals for simultaneous synchronization of SD/HD video devices in
television stations, video editing suits or film/video copy studios. Referring
to this, the MC-3.3 offers extremely high flexibility, 12 outputs in total and
a new designed, simple user interface.
One of the design advantages of the MC-3.3 SMART CLOCK VR is its high-
precision clock frequency basis, from which all video reference signals
are derived simultaneously. As a result, the individual snyc clock signals
generated feature the same frequency accuracy and time base! The
frequency generation is accurate to < ± 0.5ppm and thus complies with AES
11, Grade 1, as well as broadcast specifications.
The SD bi-level video reference generator supports PAL 25fps, PAL 24fps
(so-called ‘Slow-PAL’) NTSC 29.97fps and NTSC 30fps as Black + Burst, com-
posite sync and color bar. Especially for the PAL 24fps standard a pull down
factor of 0.1% can be set additionally to output PAL 23.98fps.
The HD tri-level video reference generator offers 720p, 1080i and 1080p
formats with various frame rates. Furthermore, MC-3.3 generates different
HD tri-level test patterns as YPrPb component or RGB signals.
The SD and HD video generators are independently adjustable at the same
time. A total of six outputs is available for each video standard at the rear.
Phase relations of the generated signals will be recognized and tuned
automatically.
A new designed, simple user interface enables to install the MC-3.3 without
longer training time. Thus, MC-3.3 SMART CLOCK VR offers a flexible solu-
tion for every video editing and post production facility.
