INSTALLATION
The program video for the character generator is connected to the CHAR
GEN IN loop. The program video with characters is available at the OUT
BNC connector. Adjustments to the character size, position and display
modes are accomplished by using front panel controls or from the KeyLog
TRACKER™ GUI.
TRACKER™ manual for further information.
The video input circuitry has a high impedance input tapped off the loop;
therefore, the video signal must be properly terminated at the end of the
line.
There are internal jumpers located on the I/O assembly that allow the lower
BNC of the loop to be used as an internally terminated input. In this mode,
the upper BNC of the loop may be used as a second character generator
output. (See section 6.3.1)
To make window dubs on your program video for off line editing, connect
the character generator input to the video output from the telecine. If you
also want to put VITC on with the burn in, connect the character generator
input to one of the outputs of the VITC generator. (See Figure 2-5)
In addition to providing field accurate burn-ins of the video and audio time

system diagnostics, which help users to quickly locate problems with the
installation. When the 4052TR is controlled from the KeyLog TRACKER™
GUI it is also possible to display up to 9 additional windows containing
production data such as Camera Roll, Sound Roll, VT roll, etc.
You MUST connect the character inserter to a video source to properly gen-
lock the 4025TR. The character output must be connected to a monitor in
order to use the Setup menu, which is required to properly configure the
