See Figure 54 on page 125 128 WFM5200 Waveform Monitor User Manual Application Example Application Example Timing a Studio Your instrument supports multiple methods and techniques for timing a studio all of which require an external reference to your instrument Timing a studio involves adjusting the references going to different sources so that their output feeds have the same timing when they arrive at a common point such as a production switcher For digital systems timing typically must be close but not exact because most switchers have some tolerance for timing errors For analog composite systems the timing may need to be matched within a small part of a subcarrier cycle to prevent hue shifts when switching between sources Following are procedures for timing a studio using various methods Using the Traditional Your instrument makes the traditional method of comparing Horizontal and Method Vertical timing easier by providing flexible tiles and a Freeze function To time a studio using the traditional method you store an input as a baseline and compare signals that you time against the baseline 1 Selecta tile in which to time the active input Select WFM 2 Apply the first input signal to the appropriate input terminate it properly and select it 3 Push and hold the WFM button From the Display Mode submenu select a display mode that is appropriate to the signal that you input 4 Apply the house reference si
