PAL/NTSC Signal G e n e r a t o r
TSG 95 PAL/NTSC Signal Generator.
Te k t ronix is the worldwide
leader supplying test equipment
for the entire range of video and
audio signal applications. Our
video and audio test port f o l i o
consists of signal pro c e s s i n g ,
generation, and measure m e n t
equipment for broadcast, cable,
p roduction, manufacturing, and
transmission applications.
The TSG 95 is a handheld
PAL/NTSC Signal Generator
designed for use in installation
and maintenance of analog
composite video systems. The
TSG 95 supports both PAL and
NTSC standards. It is a great
companion for those verifying
microwave links, installing
studio or outside broadcast
systems, or servicing in the field.
Special signals are included for
testing FCC baseband video

systems and for verifying
television transmitter automatic
correction systems.
The TSG 95 Signal Generator
provides a powerful combination
of test signals, ID capabilities,
and other features making it a
must for the TV engineer’s
toolbox or workbench.

Vertical Interval Test Signals
(VITS) may be included on Flat
Field and Matrix test signals in
single standard configurations.
The TSG 95 may be configured
for multiple signal standards by
selecting up to 26 signals as a
User Signal Set.
Character ID
Up to eight messages, each containing two 16-character lines,
may be stored for later recall.
One message may be inserted
into the video test signal, and up
to four may be cycled into the
test signal in a continuous loop
(displaying each message for 1
to 9 seconds). The message may
be positioned anywhere within
the safe-title area. Creating ID
text is fast and simple using the
alphanumeric keypad — no
tedious scrolling through the
alphabet with arrow keys for
each character in the ID
message. Just type in a message
and verify it on the TSG 95’s

backlit LCD display.
User Presets
Up to four complete front panel
configurations, including menu
selections, current text message,
and cycle information may be
stored for later recall.
Analog Stereo Audio
Thirteen audio tone frequencies
(from 50 Hz to 20 kHz) or an
audio sweep are selectable from
the Tone menu. Four tone levels
(–10, 0, +4, and +8 dBu) are
available as well. Special tone
frequencies and levels within
these ranges may be set up for
special applications. An audio
click sequence can also be
selected as an aid in easily identifying and tracing left and right
channels in an installation.
DC Powered
The TSG 95 may be operated
from the AC adapter provided,
from eight AA size batteries, or
from an optional accessory 9.6 V
NiCad battery pack. Battery
recharging capability, utilizing
the AC adapter, is provided for
the NiCad battery pack only.
Application
The TSG 95 is focused towards
installation, maintenance, and
field performance verification
applications.
