    Technical Data ........1 In General The FKG-1 is a compact crosshair generator. It is available as a printed circuit board designed for O.E.M. costumers, or inside a small case. It generates a single crosshair and insert it into a video signal.
  • Page 4: Features

    Figure 1: Outline of a possible application. 1.1 Features The following enumeration gives you an short overview of the available features of the FKG-1. • insertion of a crosshair into an external video signal. • processing of BAS, FBAS or Y/C possible.

    3 Connecting The Printed Circuit Board The printed circuit board of the FKG-1 is a member of the FKG product family too. For this variant, all the signals must be plugged into on-board connectors. Figure 3 shows the position and the orientation of these connectors.

It is important to use higher quality potentiometers, because the cheaper ones could lead to a jittering crosshair! The dimension of these devices must be between 4.7 kΩ...

    3.4 The Supply Voltage The supply voltage has to be connected to ST2. The FKG-1 needs a DC voltage between 8 V and 12 V. The maximum current consumption is less then 80 mA. ST2 pin-1 is positive and pin-2 is ground.

    After program start, the configuration dialog box as shown in figure 5 appears. Figure 5: The configuration dialog. Here you can select the serial port used for the FKG-1 connection. It is important, that the device has been switched on.
  • Page 11 If the same error message appears again, you should select another interface. The last step is used to query the device ID of the FKG-1. Apart from the device name, a dialog box as in figure 8 reports the version of the firmware and the maximum number of supported crosshairs.

    “Select:”. The active selection is indicated by an red rhombus. Inside the FKG-1, the se- lection is represented by changing the shading of the crosshair. To deselect the crosshair, simply click the radio button again.

    The buttons “Save”, “Recall” and “Reset” are of particular importance. With the “Save” button you can save the current settings in the EEPROM of the FKG-1. These settings will then be available next time, when the FKG-1 is powered on. No PC must be connected then.
