$ Total pedestal level adjustment
(Use an oscilloscope or a waveform monitor for this
adjustment.)
This step is to adjust the black levels (pedestal levels) of two
or more cameras to be the same.
[ADJUSTMENT by CAMERA]
1. Close the lens.
2. Select Pedestal item in the brightness setting Sub Menu.
(Select [Pedestal] in the [Iris, Shutter, Gain Set] sub
menu in User Mode.)
3. Set the pedestal level to 5 IRE (0.035 V) with the

$ Gen-lock adjustment
Phase adjustments must be performed with the camera or
the RCU (RCB) when external synchronizing signals are
supplied to the system in cases where multiple cameras are
used or peripheral devices are connected.
U Horizontal phase control
