SYNC level: Testing the amplitude of the video sync pulse to verify if the video level is correct.
For NTSC format, the SYNC level is 40 ± 5IRE
For PAL format, the SYNC level is 300 ± 35mV
If the level is too low, it will cause the image to not frame out properly. If the level is too high, it will lead to a poor quality
image.
COLOR BURST level: Testing the color burst level will determine if the burst signal is sufficient to trigger the displays
color producing circuit. Burst will diminish in amplitude over longer cable runs and can get fall below the threshold for
the video display to show a color image.
For NTSC format, the Chroma standard level is 40 IRE
For PAL format, the Chroma standard level is 280mV
If the Chroma level is too low, the color will not be as deep, and some details of the image will get washed out. If the
Chroma level is too high, there will be spots on the image. If the coaxial cable is too long, it will reduce the chroma level.
2.3.5 PTZ controller (Activates analog video viewing and testing)
Displays and allows for analysis of analog video and controls Pan/tilt/zoom function of PTZ analog cameras. For PTZ
testing, setup the controlling parameters from the meter to match those of the camera: e.g. PTZ protocol (PELCO-D, etc.),
communication port (RS-485, etc.), baud rate, PTZ camera ID and pan/tilt speed.
2.3.6 Enhanced Color bar generator
The tester sends out color bars via its BNC output to the monitor. This is used to test for a problem in the cable going from
the camera back to the monitoring area.
2.3.7 12VDC 2A male power output port and 5VDC 2A USB power port
The unit can power a camera with its 12VDC 2A male power output. Also included is a built in 5VDC 2A power output port
used to charge USB devices. NOTE: This USB port is for charging only and has no ability to transfer data.
2.3.8 Audio testing
Test the audio from mic level input devices. Connect the tester and mic level device with the audio cable. Supports audio
recording and output. Consult your local laws and regulations on recording audio and using audio devices. In the
United States of America and all individual states thereof, there are federal and state laws that limit your ability
to monitor and / or record audio. These laws expose you to the risk of criminal prosecution and potentially give
an injured party a civil claim for money damages against you.
