Figure 67, Video Level Meter Screen While in PAL format, the unit will operate in mV units, and in IRE while in NTSC format.
Table 2, Video Signal Peak to Peak Values NTSC PAL Video signal level Chroma level (color burst) SYNC signal level Video signal level Chroma level (color burst) SYNC signal level 140 ± 15 IRE 40 ± 5 IRE 40 ± 5 IRE 1000 ± 200 mV 300 ± 35 mV 300 ± 35 mV • Video Signal Peak-to-Peak Levels: For NTSC, the video signal level is 140 ± 15 IRE. For PAL, the video signal level is 1000 ± 200 mV. If the level is too low, it will cause the image to lose quality and limit the distance traveled over cable.
Burst will diminish in amplitude over longer cable runs and can fall below the threshold required for the video display to show a color image. For NTSC, the standard chroma level is 40 IRE. For PAL, the standard chroma level is 280 mV. If the chroma level is too low, the color will not be as deep, and some details of the image will become lighter. If the chroma level is too high, there will be distortions in the image. If the coaxial cable is too long, the chroma level will be diminished.
