You can use color bars in conjunction with TriCaster's Waveform and Vectorscope to
make sure the video supplied to the Switcher is consistent, accurate and broadcast
legal.
Most video cameras are capable of displaying color bars – check your camera manual
to see how to display these (given a choice, use 75% bars). Then look at the
Vectorscope to see how it traces the individual colors comprising the image.
FIGURE 406
The Vectorscope graticule has six distinct rectangular targets, one each for Yellow,
Red, Magenta, Cyan, Blue, and Green. The targets are small rectangles with a cross-
hair superimposed on them.
When a source is properly calibrated, the trace from the different colored segments
of the color bars displayed will fall right inside their individual targets (see Figure
407).
