Selects the horizontal and vertical synchronizing constants, (the synchronization) rate for
both the internal monitor of the spectrum analyzer and the video signal that is output to the
MONITOR OUTPUT connector.

Example
OUTPUT
718;"SYNCMODE
NTSC15;"
Selects the NTSC format for the spectrum analyzer
monitor and monitor output.
OUTPUT
718;"IP;"
An instrument preset activates the new synchronizing
constants.
Description
Whenever you use
SYNCMODE
to change the synchronizing constants, you must press
(PRESET]
or execute IP to activate the new synchronizing constants. Changing the vertical scanning rate
may change the location of the time and date display on the spectrum analyzer display.
The
SYNCMODE
parameters NORMAL and LOAD15 allow you to change the horizontal and
vertical synchronizing constants for both the spectrum analyzer’s internal monitor and the
video signal to the MONITOR OUTPUT connector.
The
SYNCMODE
parameters NTSC15 and PAL15 allow you to change the vertical scanning rate
for both the spectrum analyzer’s internal monitor and the video signal that is output to the
MONITOR OUTPUT connector. The regular vertical scanning rate for the spectrum analyzer’s
monitor is 57 Hz; the NTSC15 changes the vertical scanning rate to 60 Hz, and the PAL15
changes the vertical scanning rate to 50 Hz. If you want to record the spectrum analyzer
display on a video cassette recorder (VCR) that uses the NTSC format, you must use the
NTSC15 parameter to change the vertical scanning rate of the spectrum analyzer monitor to 60
Hz. If you want to record the spectrum analyzer display on a VCR that uses the PAL format,
you must use the PAL15 parameter to change the vertical scanning rate of the spectrum
analyzer monitor to 50 Hz.
