Combination Waveform and Vectorscope Monitors
The 5870 and 5872A combine a waveform monitor with a vectorscope in
one half-rack chassis. Waveforms and vectors can be independently or
simultaneously displayed on a single CRT. For example, both Channel A
and B waveform and vectorscope displays can be shown at the same
time. Phase variations of jitter are also displayed with the waveform.
Furthermore, a full-Iine selector function is installed for reading the field
and line number on the CRT. As a result, the 5870 and 5872A are very
useful not only in observing the blanking time intervals for VITS, VIR,
character broadcasting and ITS, but also in checking the various
characteristics of video camera resolution.
The 5870 steps up with a SCH phase measuring function for video editing.
The SCH phase can be displayed on the CRT with a numerical readout.
Waveform/Vectorscope Combo
◆ Combining the standard features of a wave-
form monitor and vectorscope in a single
half-rack package, the 5870/5872A offer a
number of powerful measuring advantages:
– The ability to overlay waveform and vector
displays from two input signals for precise
level, timing and phase matching.
– Use of the decoded R-Y signal facilitates easy
high-resolution measurements of differential
phase and gain. Chroma and IRE filters may
be inserted on a full-time or line-shared
basis.
– Dual-channel display shows A and B inputs
concurrently.
Line Select
◆ Full raster line select is offered with lines
chosen from Fields 1/3, 2/4 or ALL.
◆ Field and line numbers selected by the full
line selector are displayed on the CRT for
confirmation during waveform observation.
◆ Full waveform and vector manipulation is
available in the line-select mode.
◆ The full-line selector function used to select
optional lines, also vertical interval test
signals can be monitored (VITS).
◆ Memory storage of up to 9 resettable
field/line numbers provides instant recall for
routine tests. Provision is made for remote
control including recall of line presets.
5835
Stereo Audio Monitor
The 5835 is a Stereo Audio Monitor that provides a lissajous pattern display of stereo audio
signal on a CRT screen, enabling monitoring of the phase and level of the signal. The lissajous
pattern display of the stereo signal is provided with the left and right axes inclined at 45°
enabling a good visual presentation of audio effects such as broadening and apparent position.
The 5835 features a stereo polarity discrimination function, a spot killer, and two Canon-type
inputs, making it ideal for use in not only program editing, but in checking of transmission
equipment as well. All this makes the 5835 a useful stereo audio monitor for broadcast studio,
production studio and recording studio or remote pickup applications as well. Both balanced
(XLR) and single-ended (phono-type connector) inputs are provided. A -20 dB, 0 dB, +10 dB
range switch includes a CAL setting and is augmented with a VARIABLE control.

FEATURES
Additional Features
◆ 150 mm rectangular CRT with internal
graticule. The 16.5 kV high-accelerating
potential facilitates legible, clearly defined
display.
◆ All front-panel switches can be externally
remote-controlled.
◆ Differential gain (DG) and differential phase
(DP) can be displayed through single key
operations.
◆ RGB/YRGB with parade display function.
◆ Switching mode power supply accepts
90-250v AC, 48-440 Hz, so it can operate
anywhere where AC power is available.
◆ In addition, they have 4-pin DC power input
as standard, allowing vehicle or battery
power at 11-20v DC to be accepted.
5870 Only
The 5870 offers an on-screen digital readout
of SCH in degrees of error referenced to the
signal observed or an external reference for
color framing checks. CRT displays of SCH
measurements enable correct monitoring
without reading errors. Phase variations of
jitter are also displayed with the waveform.
