Output signal from the Special Effects Generator to  
the vectorscope. While obseving the vectorscope,  
adjust the Subcarrler Phase Coarse and Fine Controls  
(139) or (197) on the RCU so that the phase of the  
Colour bars from the Camera matches that of the bars  
generated by the Special Effects Generator.  
2. Set the switches as follows:  
- Connect an oscilloscope to the Program Output  
Connector of the Special Effects Generator or feed the  
Control Selection  
Program Output signal to  
a
waveform monitor.  
Observe the horizontal period of the Program Output  
SignaI.  
- Adjust the Luminance Gain Fine Control (113) or (194)  
so that the luminance signal level of both colour bar  
signals are equal. Adjust the Chroma Gain Fine  
Control (114) or (193) so that the chrominance signal  
levels of both colour bar signals are equal.  
7. Reset fhe Colour Bar/Camera Selectlon Swltch (121)  
or (176) on the RCU from the BAR to the CAMERA

blinks while the black balance is being set and it shuts  
off when the black balance has been correctly set.  
While the black balance is being set, ‘ABC’ also blinks

in the viewfinder screen, and ‘ABC OK' appears when  
the setting is completed. After a few seconds, 'ABC OK’  
disappears from the screen.
