Setting the TBC window center position
When the MVE-8000A/MVE-9000 is connected through SDI interface, the DME>Input>TBC Center menu allows you to set the TBC window center position.
Use the following procedure.
In the DME>Input menu, press [TBC Center].
The TBC Center menu appears.
The status area shows the TBC center position values for DME1, DME 2, and external input signals.
The TBC center position values for external input signals are shown only when an SDI-interfaced MVE-9000 is used.
Using any of the following methods, select the input number for which you want to set the TBC center position.
Press directly on the list in the status area.

In the <Trigger Type> group, select the trigger polarity.
Apply the trigger on a rising edge of an input pulse.
(Falling Edge): Apply the trigger on a falling edge of an input pulse.
(Any Edge): Apply the trigger on a change in the polarity of the input signal.
(Level): Carry out the specified operation when the input is low or high.
No Operation: Apply no trigger on an input pulse.

4 | Reg No | Register number | 1 to 99 b) 1 to 399 c) |
a) • Action list when the trigger type is other than "Level"
When Target is Ch1, Ch2, Ch3, or Ch4: Freeze, SS ? Recall Effect ? Recall, Effect ? Recall & Run, KF Run, KF Stop, KF Rewind, KF Reverse
Run, No Action
When Target is Proc: No Action
• Action list when the trigger type is "Level"
When Target is Ch1, Ch2, Ch3, or Ch4: Aspect, No Action
When Target is Proc: Format (frame/field rate, number of lines), Aspect, Level Enable, No Action
"Level Enable" is a function that determines whether GPI inputs are enabled ("Enable") or disabled ("Disable") for the "Aspect" and "Format" actions that can be used when the trigger type is Level. When Level Enable is used, if the input is "Disable" then it is not possible to switch "Aspect" or "Format" by GPI input.
If a GPI to switch "Aspect" or "Format" occurs when powering the system off, the action triggered by the GPI may start immediately before the power goes off and the power may go off before the action is completed. This may corrupt the setup settings.
It is therefore recommended to use Level Enable to avoid such a situation.
b)When knob 3 selection is "Snapshot"
c) When knob 3 selection is "Effect"
Press [Action Set] to confirm the action selection.
The selected setting appears in the status area.
