ABOUT VIDEO FORMATSFor many years, there was only one type of video format used. Composite video signals include theLuminance (black & White) and Chroma (color) signals combined on one wire. S-Video uses separatewires in a single cable for Luminance and Chroma signals. Component Video goes a step furtherwith separate cables for Luminance and the two elements of Chroma. For NTSC (America, japan)as well as PAL signals(Europe, Asia) these are labeled Y, Cr, Cb. Television studios use the ComponentVideo format to keep these signals separate in order to maintain the best quality. As consumer videoequipment has improved this higher quality format has been included.VIDEO FORMAT CONVERSIONThe T 775 is equipped with a Video Format Converter. This allows for a simplified video connectionbetween the T 775 and your TV Monitor when using multiple video formats such as Composite (CVBS),S-Video, and Component (YUV). This format change is accomplished by encoding the analog videosignal into a digital signal using a very high quality digital encoder to maintain the best possiblepicture quality. Once in a digital format, it can be decoded into any of the three standard analog videoformats. These analog outputs are also up-converted to HDMI output. Video output availability willdepend on the resolution capability of your TV/Monitor.It is suggested that you select the highest quality video format available on your TV Monitor and utilize thisfor your Monitor OUT connection from the T 775 to the TV Monitor. In most cases this will be ComponentVideo or HDMI (where possible), but on some older TV’s S-Video may be the best quality connection.A/V PRESETA particular Source can be assigned a stored Preset. The parameters set up in the selected Presetnumber will be adopted into the particular Source it is assigned (Please refer to the separate section on‘A/V Presets’ for further understanding of Preset settings).Scrolling to ‘A/V Preset’ and by pressing and then keys, a Source could be assigned a Presetnumber ranging from Preset 1 to 5.If it is desired not to assign the particular Source a Preset setting, select ‘None’.TRIGGER OUTThe Trigger Out for a particular Source is dependent on the configurations done in a separate menu onTrigger Setup (See ‘Trigger Setup’ below). If all three available Trigger outputs are assigned to ‘Source Setup’in the separate ‘Trigger Setup’ window, a particular Source can have the following Trigger Out combinationsTrigger Out ➜ 1 ➜ 2 ➜ 1 + 2 ➜ 3 ➜ 1 + 3 ➜ 2 + 3 ➜ 1+2+ 3These combinations are dependent on the assignment of ‘Source Setup’ for ‘Trigger 1 Out, Trigger 2Out or Trigger 3 Out’ at the Trigger Setup menu.Another option is ‘None’ whereby the particular Source is not assigned any Trigger Out.For ‘Trigger Out’ to become enabled and assignable at ‘Source Setup (Normal View)’ menu, make sureto carry out or note the following beforehand• In the separate ‘Trigger Setup’ menu, assign ‘Trigger 1 Out, Trigger 2 Out or Trigger 3 Out’ to ‘SourceSetup.’• ‘Trigger Out’ will not appear as an option at the Source Setup (Normal View) menu if at theseparate ‘Trigger Setup’ menu, ‘Trigger 1 Out, Trigger 2 Out or Trigger 3 Out’ are all assigned to‘Main, Zone 2, Zone 3, Zone 4, or Zone 2+3+4’; with not even one ‘Trigger Out’ port allocated to‘Source Setup.’SOURCE SETUP (TABLE VIEW)The Source Setup (Table View) reflects the settings made in the Source Setup (Normal View) menu. Allthe Source settings are summarized and displayed in tabulated form in the Source Setup (Table View).Navigating through the Source Setup (Table View) via a combination of and then keys, one willhave the benefit of directly changing the settings for ‘Audio, Video, Preset, Trigger and Source Name’without going back to the Source Setup (Normal View) menu.OPERATIONUSING THE T 775 – SETUP MENU1ENGLISHFRANÇAISESPAÑOLITALIANODEUTSCHNEDERLANDSSVENSKAРУССКИЙ
