Outputting the Color
Bars and Reference
Tone
The camcorder can output a color-bar signal in
place of the camera picture.
A 1-kHz reference tone is output with the color
bar signal if "1kHz Tone" of "Audio Input" (page
106) is set to "On" with the AUDIO SET menu.
The color-bar signal and reference-tone signal are
also fed out from the SDI OUT, COMPONENT
OUT, and A/V OUT connectors.
