Setup guide

Connecting Video Components
The following diagram illustrates how to set up video I/O by connecting the hardware components included
in your shipment. The only video hardware you must provide are a sync generator, VTR, HD/SDI-ready
broadcast monitor and patch panel (if desired).
NOTE Do not use an SD (NTSC or PAL) sync generator for HD projects. Always use a tri-level sync generator for
HD projects. Using the wrong sync generator for a project may impact the stability of your workstation.
