Preparations
Preparations
The color corrector enables video signal color correction (black balance/white
balance adjustment, gamma correction, knee correction, etc.).
Notes
To use the color corrector on the MVS-8000A, the MKS-8420M Color
Corrector Board is required. To use the color corrector on the MVS-8000G
requires the MKS-8442G Frame Memory Board and BZS-8420 Color
Corrector Software. To use the software, you are required to input an install
key.
For the method of inputting an install key, see “Installation and Device Setup
(Install/Unit Config Menu)” in Chapter 18 (Volume 3).
Note on using a format other than 720P
When using the color corrector on a 4M/E system: It is not possible to use
an M/E reentry signal in an overlaid manner on the key bus or utility 1 bus.
Example 1: When M/E-1 is selected on the M/E-2 background A bus (or
background B bus, key bus, utility 1 bus, or utility 2 bus), it is not
possible to select M/E-2 on the M/E-3 key bus or utility 1 bus.
Example 2: When M/E-2 is selected on the M/E-3 background A bus (or
background B bus, key bus, utility 1 bus, or utility 2 bus), it is not
possible to select M/E-3 on the PGM/PST key bus or utility 1 bus.
Note on using 720P format
The following restrictions apply depending on the system configuration.
Restriction 1: M/E reentry signals cannot be selected on the key bus and utility
1 bus. For example, you cannot select M/E-1 on the M/E-2 key bus or
utility 1 bus.
Restriction 2: It is not possible to use an M/E reentry signal in an overlaid
manner on the key bus or utility 1 bus.
Example 1: When M/E-1 is selected on the M/E-2 background A bus (or
background B bus, key bus, utility 1 bus, or utility 2 bus), it is not
possible to select M/E-2 on the M/E-3 key bus or utility 1 bus.
Example 2: When M/E-2 is selected on the M/E-3 background A bus (or
background B bus, key bus, utility 1 bus, or utility 2 bus), it is not
possible to select M/E-3 on the PGM/PST key bus or utility 1 bus.
• When using the color corrector on a 3M/E system with a board with
multi-format support
The above restriction 2 applies.
