Multi or single standardThe Fluke 54100 Video Signal Generatorand the Fluke 54200 TV SignalGenerator are available with PAL, NTSCand/or SECAM video standard options.You can select any combination of thesestandards to create a single, double ortriple standard unit. The appropriate substandards (system B, D, G, I, K , K 1, L, M orN) are enabled automatically.

W ide range of patternsThe Fluke 54000 Series are today’s mostversatile generators. O n all models youwill find the test patterns and capabilitiesyou’ll need to test and align the totalvideo signal path. There are over 500test patterns – for calibrating geometry(in 4:3 and 16 :9 aspect ratios), synchro-nization, focusing, static and dynamicconvergence. You’ll find signals for checking bandwidth, interference (suchas cross-color), amplitude response, tracking and clipping. As well as for colorreproduction, cut-off setting, high-voltagestability, analog-to-digital conversion,and much more. And your test resultswill always be reliable, as all test patterns are digitally generated to ensurehigh stability and precise timing.

Stable RF output (Fluke 542 00 only)You need to do tuner and IF tests? Theterrestrial output on the Fluke 54200 TVSignal Generator is just what you need.Its highly stable signal covers the entireRF frequency range from 32 to 900 MH z.And you can set the frequency directlywith 50 kH z resolution. For fast and precise reference, you can enter theamplitude either in mV or dBµ V and themaximum output level is as high as 100 mV for the entire bandwidth. Group delay pre-correction, also knownas group delay filtering, allows you totest applications that need accurateluminance and chrominance timing.

Versatile NICAM digital soundIf you need digital sound capabilities, youshould specify this option. NICAM, alsoavailable in SECAM, is compatible with theex isting PAL terrestrial TV and cable TVstandards, and adds two high-quality digitalsound channels. Suitable TV sets can receivetwo mono channels (this is called dualchannel) for simultaneous translation offoreign-language programs, stereo signals ortransparent transmission of data. The optionprovides mono, stereo and dual tone modes tocheck the digital sound performance. Forchannel 1, tone frequencies of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and3.0 kHz are available, while you can modulatechannel 2 with a signal frequency of 1.0, 1.5,3.0 and 12 kHz. Both digital sound channelshave selectable low- or high-amplitude signalsto test the NICAM ex pander of the TV receiver.Y ou can check the operation of the Q PSKdemodulator and NICAM decoder with threespecial test signals. Y ou can also use these toperform a level adjustment or measurement. A high/low selectable RSSF (Reserve SoundSwitching Flag) indicates that the analog(mono) and digital sound carriers aretransmitting different information, or that thereare errors in the digital transmission.

B TSC sound (MTS Stereo p lus SAP)In combination with NTSC and PAL TVstandards, this sound option generates BTSCsound signals or Multi channel TelevisionSound (MTS). Apart from mono and stereosound, a Second Audio Program (SAP) is alsoavailable. Y ou can select various test tonefrequency (0.3, 1.0 and 3.0 kHz) and modecombinations, as well as special test signals.These special test signals give you an easyfunctional test for channel separation, signal tonoise ratio, level gaining and harmonicdistortion of the stereo and SAP decoders. All sound signals are digitally generated whichensures high stability, and they are availableboth at the RF output or, via basebandprocessing, at the precision MPX output.

Multiple outputsFor some measurements, a composite videosignal is not enough. So, the Fluke 54000Series’ RGB, YC and YCrCb option gives youadditional separate output signals for red,green and blue (RGB), luminance (Y),chrominance (C) and component outputs Crand Cb. The RGB and YC signals are availableat separated connectors and on the EURO AV(SCART) connector. The RGB signal is ideal tocontrol devices such as components orsubassemblies directly at color decoded level.You can even include synchronization signalsin the individual RGB signals. You’ll need theYC output signals – which are also providedvia a special connector and cable – for testingthe S-VHS/Hi-8 input of video recorders.These VCRs eliminate cross-color effects byseparately processing the Y and C signals,which gives better color reproduction. Thecomponent outputs Cr and Cb (also known asR-Y and B-Y) are phase related to U and V (U = 0.49 x Cb, V = 0.88 x Cr). Thesecomponent signals are used in the professionalvideo area and in applications where colorconversions or pattern processing are tested.

F ully prog ra m m a b leYou can include the Fluke 54000 Seriesgenerators in an automated test environmentwith the interface option. Offering a combinedIEEE-488 and RS-232 interface, this optionmakes the instrument fully programmable froma remote location. The IEEE-488 interfaceoften forms the basis of fully automated testenvironments, while the RS-232 serialinterface is mostly used to control theinstrument economically from a PC in a standalone application. All the instrument’sstandard, function and mode settings can bechanged or retrieved via the IEEE-488 or RS-232 interface.

PDC programming

Selecting th eClosed Caption content

Easily programmable PDC and VPSPDC and VPS test facilities are availableoptionally with the teletext option. B othsystems use control information transmittedwith the program to start and stop recording ofthat program on a VCR . For optimum flexibility,you can use any of nine coded PDC or VPSsignals and both types of signal can even betransmitted simultaneously. When testing PDC,you can program PIL (date & time), CNI (country& network), PTY, PTL and the program name.You can even test multi labeling. In VPS mode,you can set information on date, transmissiontime, country indication, TV channel,stereo/dual/mono sound, adult/general programcontent and the program name. Special PDCand VPS signals such as timer control code,recording inhibit/terminate code, interruptioncode and continuation code are also available.Programming of the codes for both PDC andVPS is simple, using the instrument's largedisplay and softkeys.

Versatile Closed Caption testingClosed Caption is also known as line 21 dataservices for NTSC. It is a visual representationof the information that is simultaneouslytransmitted on the audio part of a televisionsignal. In the U SA, TV sets with screen sizes of13" and up must have a Closed Captiondecoder. Closed Caption is not only used inNTSC countries such as the U SA, K orea andJapan, but it can be and is used with the PALstandard as well. The Closed Caption option onthe Fluke 54000 Series offers you both captionand text modes in one of four operatingchannels. It provides eight factory pre-codedClosed Caption memories with a selection ofdifferent types of information and modes, suchas roll-up, pop-on and paint-on. All line 21decoder capabilities can easily be tested, asmemory 9 is an automatic Closed Captionsequence of memories 1 to 8 .
