Selection Of External Reference Signal And Generator Lock Setting; Locking The Video Signal To The External Reference Signal - Panasonic AJ-PX800G Operating Instructions Manual

Chapter 4 Shooting — Selection of external reference signal and generator lock setting

Selection of external reference signal and generator lock setting

Locking the video signal to the external reference signal

The video signal output from the camera can be locked to the reference signal supplied from an external source.
The camera can receive external reference signals from the <GENLOCK IN> terminal.
Genlocking to the reference signal supplied from the <GENLOCK IN> terminal
HD-Y or composite signal that suits the system frame frequency is supplied to the <GENLOCK IN> terminal. Select the output signal to lock to the input
reference signal in the main menu → [OTHER FUNCTIONS] → [GL PHASE] (not available at 480i, 576i).
Adjust the horizontal phase of the reference signal and output signal in the main menu → [OTHER FUNCTIONS] → [H PHASE].
@ NOTE
t The subcarrier of the composite signal of the camera is not locked to the subcarrier of the reference signal.
Output status
The output status changes as follows according to selection of the external reference signal and generator lock setting.
Set [GL PHASE] in the main menu → [OTHER FUNCTIONS].
Selection of external reference signal
System mode
1080i, 1080i/P
720P
480i, 576i
NOTE
@
t In the system mode of 1080i/P or 720P, a genlock is applied to the video signal when the HD-Y signal is input. In this case, time code may shift by one
frame.
t Down converter output refers to the output from the <MON OUT> and <SDI OUT/IN (OP)> terminals.
t When the system mode is 1080/23.98PsF, the setting is fixed to [HD SDI] regardless of the settings of [GL PHASE].
