1. 2 KRAMER SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY Overview 3 Overview The TR 1YC and the TR 2YC are high performance video isolation transformers for s video Y C signals In many applications the connection between video sources and acceptors induces 50Hz or 60Hz ground loops with an undesirable effect such as hum bars and audio hum The TR 1YC and the TR 2YC provide complete isolation between the video source and receptor thus eliminating video hum ground loops and DC offsets which can degrade picture quality In the TR 1YC unit the luminance signal Y is transformer coupled while the band limited chrominance C signal is coupled via a capacitor with high voltage breakdown The unit is mainly intended to solve ground problems and DC offsets In the TR 2YC unit both the luminance Y signal and the chrominance C signal are transformer coupled to allow the broadband signal to pass with minimum deterioration Both the TR 1YC and TR 2YC units e Are designed to withstand very high potential differences on both channels between the input and output e Allow the user to select the ground link by dipswitches e Are housed in a Kramer TOOLS enclosure and require no power supply making them ideal for field applications To achieve the best performance e Connect only good quality connection cables thus avoiding interference deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching and elevated noise levels often associ2. the video input 3 s VIDEO OUT 4p Connector Connects to the video output Your Isolation Transformers Figure 3 and Table 3 define the underside of the TR 1YC and TR 2YC FLOAT Y C output signal shield Input socket shield Output socket shield m Y C input signal shield Figure 3 The s Video Isolation Transformers Underside Table 3 Features and Functions of the s Video Isolation Transformers Underside Feature Function Output socket shield Set to GROUND to connect the output socket shield to the chassis Otherwise set to FLOAT Y C output signal shield Set to GROUND to connect the Y C output signal shield to the chassis Otherwise set to FLOAT Input socket shield Set to GROUND to connect the input socket shield to the chassis Otherwise set to FLOAT Y C input signal shield Set to GROUND to connect the Y C input signal shield to the chassis Otherwise set to FLOAT Figure 4 illustrates the dipswitch definitions Y C INPUT SIGNAL SHIELD Y C OUTPUT OUTPUT SOCKET SHIELD SIGNAL SHIELD SOCKET SHIELD Figure 4 Dipswitch Definitions KRAMER SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY Using the Isolation Transformer 5 5 1 Using the Isolation Transformer The Isolation Transformers are used for s Video signals There are no general rules as to how and where to connect the Isolation Transformers This depends on many factors which rela
