Grass Valley VM 3000 System Controllers v.7.4 - Manual (Page 759)

Glossary−11
Y line − in an editing environment, some VTRs can act as controllers or tributaries. These can be connected with a
“Y” cable to two switcher ports— one for use when the VTR is a controller, the other when the VTR is used as a
tributary. If the VTR is operated only as a controller, or only as a tributary, then a “Y” cable will not be needed.
ZIF − zero insertion force.
Zion − engineering project name for Jupiter “Configurator,” an enhanced, “Windows−like” editor introduced
with Jupiter 6.1.
