1. Video input:

There are one video and one S-Video on the input. The unit will automatically

detect the video input when either one of the input is connected.

When both inputs are connected, S-Video input has the priority.

2. Video out:

CTB-100 offers two different formats of video out simultaneously-composite,

and S-Video.

3. DC 15V.

4. Genlock input/Genlock output:(Only available on CTB-100G)

CTB-100G offers TBC/Genlock function in which video input is time base

corrected and genlocked to the sync of another video (Genlock in),

therefore making the two video output synchronized.

The full frame processing also reconstruct the sync burst and timing of the

video input and provide an error-free video output.

The video system of the video input and genlock input must be the same.

If they are different, the output video will be abnormal.

Genlock out is a loop-through of Genlock input which made possible the

synchronization between multiple video sources by connecting

Genlock out to the Genlock in of the next unit,and repeat it.

You can synchronize as many video sources as you like by cascading many

CTB-100G in series.

Precautions

1. Do not expose this product to direct sunlight.

2. Keep the unit away from radiator, heat sources and magnetic field.

3. Do not place it in very dusty or humid locations.

4. Use this unit in a horizational position only.

5. Do not put heavy object on top of the converter.

6. Put the unit in an open space that has a good ventilation.

7. Keep the unit away from TV or other electronic equipment if the

unit is affected.

8. Unplug the unit from the power supply when it is not to be used for

a long period time.

Features

1.Restores distorted or de-shaped vertical and horizontal sync. and color burst.

2. Eliminate picture jittering and ensure stable image on screen through

Dual-field full-frame reconstruction.

3. Correct time error of video that normally associated with VCR source.

4. Adjust Brightness,Color, Tint, Sharpness and Contrast to improve

video picture.

5. A true multisystem Time Base Corrector automatically processes video

input of any systems-NTSC, NTSC 4.43, PAL, PAL M, PAL N, SECAM.

6. Digital comb filter for input Y/C separation offers best output quality.

7. Built-in automatic gain control (AGC) ensures 1 Vp-p output signal

(input level ranges from 0.5 Vp-p to 2 Vp-p).

8. Automatically sending out color bar patterns when there is no

video signal presents on the input.

9. Built-in TBC/Genlock capability for synchronizing multiple asynchronous

video sources.(CTB-100G)

10. Ideal for use in rectifying any video errors and abnormal picture.
