SIGNAL
Selects the polarity of the sync pulse (positive or negative). With positive video modu-
lation, when the highest brightness is represented by the maximum signal voltage in
the image ), the synchronization pulses are negative. If the modulation is negative,
sync pulses are positive. The edges of the sync pulses are used for triggering, there-
fore incorrect polarity setting causes a sporadic triggering by the video information.
