PEAK to PEAK, SYNC levels and COLOR BURST chroma level. When an analog signal is fed into
the meter, the tester displays the measurements on the bottom left corner of the screen
Page.58.
While in PAL format, the unit will be mV, While in NTSC format, it will be IRE.
Video signal PEAK to PEAK level:
For NTSC format, the video signal level is 140±15IRE
For PAL format, the video signal level is 1000±200mV If the level is too low, it will cause the image to lose quality and limit the distance it will travel over cable. If the level is too high, it will distort the image. SYNC level: Tests the amplitude of the video sync pulse to verify if the video level is correct.
For NTSC format, the SYNC level is 40 ± 5IRE
For PAL format, the SYNC level is 300 ± 35mV If the level is too low, it will cause the image to not frame out properly. If the level is too high, it will lead to a poor quality image. COLOR BURST level: Testing the color burst level will determine if the burst signal is sufficient to trigger the displays color producing circuit. Burst will diminish in amplitude over longer cable runs and can get fall below the threshold for the video display to show a color image.
