Chapter 1 Overview
Color correction function
A YUV color correction function is provided for white
balance adjustment and general color adjustment.
User program effect and snapshot
function
• User program effects: This system has a large
number of built-in effects, but also allows the user to
create original effects, and save them in memory, for
execution in the same way as the built-in effects. Up
to twenty user program effect patterns, both linear
and nonlinear, can be saved.
• Snapshot function: The processor unit includes
snapshot registers 0 to 99, each of which can hold a
snapshot of the control panel settings. These can then
be recalled as required.
Aspect ratio selection
In the setup menu it is possible to select either 4:3 or
16:9 as the screen aspect ratio.
Easy operation for live broadcasting
The following features make this system suitable for
live broadcasting from CATV studios and so on.
• Fully-equipped control panel offers easy operability
for signal selection and transition setting.
• Parallel tally output and preview output supplied as
standard
Interfacing with editors
This system is equipped with I/O interfaces for two
sets of control signals, allowing operation together
with various editing control units.
• Nine-pin interface connector (one input/output):
for A/B roll editing (two players, one recorder)
together with a PVE-500, BVE-2000 series, or other
editing control unit
• GPI (General Purpose Interface) and trigger
signal connectors (two inputs): for control from
external equipment not fitted with the 9-pin interface
This system also supports the background through
mode. If connected to a recorder VCR with a preread
function, A/B roll editing with a minimum of two
VCRs is possible. (In background through mode, the
delay to the signal selected on the background bus of
this system is 4H. Note that there are restrictions on
the effect patterns that can be used for preread editing.)
External synchronizing connectors for
higher editing precision
The system is provided with black burst outputs for
synchronizing other connected devices, and a genlock
input for synchronization to an external signal. This
allows more precise editing.
Rack mounting
The processor unit can be mounted in an EIA standard
19-inch rack.
