For more complex Genlock systems we recommend using the Black Burst mode described below.
Genlock Composite Black Burst
Select this mode to Genlock the HD Player to a composite Black and Burst signal.
It is important that the Genlock signal matches the output standard selected. For example, it is not possible for the
HD Player to Genlock to a PAL composite signal if the output mode is set for a 60Hz output mode. Typically all
HD Video Players in the same system will be connected to a central house sync that is generated from a video DA.
The figure below shows a typical Composite Black/Burst Cabling Configuration.
