cameras.
For connections, see "Connecting Two or
More Cameras — Multi-Camera System" on
page 34.

Connecting the cameras to video

reference camera one by one.
1
Adjust the horizontal phase. Select
H. PHASE from EXT SYNC in the
SYSTEM menu, and adjust so that the
reference video signal and the output
signal have the same horizontal sync
phase. Use a waveform monitor or an
oscilloscope to check the phase.

Adjust the subcarrier phase. Select
SC. PHASE from EXT SYNC in the
SYSTEM menu.
First adjust the subcarrier phase roughly
with SC. PHASE ROUGH set to 0° and
180°, then adjust it finely using SC.
PHASE FINE so that the reference video
signal and the output video signal have
the same subcarrier phase. Use a
vectorscope or the wiping function of a
special-effects generator to display the
images of both the reference camera and
the camera to be adjusted
simultaneously on the screen.
