Right BBQ at 6:30 PM
Program Starts at 7:30 PM

by:
Tektronix

TBS
Field Shop
Topic:
Synchronization
in Hybrid Facilities
Jim Edwards
Senior Applications Engineer
Tektronix
Synchronization is one of the
most fundamental and critical procedures in a video facility. Every device
in a system, (cameras, switchers, VTRs, editors, etc.), must be
synchronized in order to create, transmit and recover video pictures and
audio information.
The complexities of an analog and digital
multi-standard, multi-format environment require flexibility to achieve
and maintain synchronization in facilities that operate in a mix of
formats.
Location:
TBS
Field Shop
Directions:
Take I-75/85 connector South
to exit #248C, Freedom Parkway. It is a normal right hand exit taking
you back over the freeway to the East. Merge with the traffic & go
through the light at Boulevard. You will pass a tall, long granite block
wall supporting the Carter Center. Immediately after take a left on
Ralph McGill, your 2nd traffic light. Go to your 2nd driveway on the
right marked by a gold painted sign 828 placed in the grass. There will
be a 700-foot long building on your left with the far end labeled TBS
Field shop. You may park anywhere in front of the building or on the
ramp. If lost call Doug Keltz @ 770.621.9126 or Bob McGee @
404-524-3911.
