Precautions Important Safety Warnings [Power] Operate unit only on the specified supply voltage. Caution Disconnect power cord by connector only. Do not pull on cable portion. Do not place or drop heavy or sharp-edged objects on power cord. A damaged cord can cause fire or electrical shock hazards.
Page 4
[Circuitry Access] Do not remove covers, panels, casing, or access circuitry with power applied to the unit! Turn power off and disconnect power cord prior to removal. Internal servicing / adjustment of unit should only be performed by qualified personnel. Do not touch any parts / circuitry with a high heat factor.
Rack Mounting The DCC-100 can be either single unit or dual unit mounted to EIA standard rack units. Racking mounting requires purchase of one of the two available rack mount kits. When single unit mounting the single mount kit with one extended rack ear must be used. When two units mounting the dual mount kit with standard size rack ears must be used.
FOR-A provides a wide range of products, from basic support units to complex system controllers, which have been increasingly joined by products for computer video based systems. Whatever your needs, talk to your FOR-A representative. We will do our best to be of continuing service to you.
Indicates that no power is supplied to the POWER Unlit system. Flashing Indicates a fan failure occurs in a power (Fan Alarm) supply. Consult your FOR-A supplier. Receiving composite signal input and the Lit green unit is working properly. COMPOSITE IN No input video signals. Unlit Input level too low.

Move the switch to upward or downward to select split screen mode for COMPOSITE OUT1, COMPOSITE OUT2, SD-SDI OUT 1 and SD-SDI OUT 2, which allows direct comparison of images before and after correction. (When operating with DCC-OUA, change split mode from DCC-OUA.) DCC-100 DIGITAL COLOR CORRECTOR INPUT SELECT SPLIT...

NOTE If set to INPUT: The amount of jitter on the SD-SDI output depends on that of input signal when analog composite is selected for input. Color framing is not always properly processed for COMPOSITE output when the SD-SDI input is used. If set to FRAME: The composite input is horizontally locked, however, it is not correctly locked to the subcarrier of the applied genlock.
(Default) INPUT SELECT (front panel), SPLIT (front panel) and GAMMA MODE (dipswitch SW2) must be set not from DCC-100 but from DCC-OUA. GAMMA MODE (SW2-2, SW2-3) Select the suitable type of gamma correction from the following three adjustments with two dipswitches.
