Lightning Measurements
The Lightning display gives indication of a bsolute and rela-
tive amplitudes and relative timing of the three components.
For a Lightning display, apply color-difference signals (Y, P
B
and P
R
) to the rear panel CH-A1, A2, and A3 (or CH-B1, B2,
and B3) connectors. Push the front-panel
LIGHTNING button.
The instrument is forced to A123 input display (it can be
changed to B123).
Use the
CONFIG—FORMAT menu (page 3-21) to set DISPLAY
to LIGHTNING, and select the appropriate format for your
system. Lightning is m ost useful in the color difference for-
mats:
SMPTE, EBU, BETA, and MII. (Selecting GBR will pro-
vide a square display.) Use the
CONFIG—VECTOR menu to
select 75% or 100% bars. This wil l c hange the size of the
electronic graticule to accommodate the input signal. Push
CLEAR MENU to clear the menu readout.
Channel 2 is compared to Channel 1 in the top half of the
display; Channel 3 is compared to Channel 1 in the lower
half. (See Figure 4-14.)
