The NTSC Compuvideo CV-5000N(RM) Master Sync A/V Generator  is a precision professional A/V generator that offers user-friendly direct function smart front panel control with last settings memory and auto power back-up, thereby assuring that the unit stays functional despite power loss. This unit can be used in rack mount, desktop, and/or handheld configurations. This generator is powered by AC/DC power and/or internal 9V batteries with 10 hours of average operation and low battery indication.

All outputs can be used at the same time. The unit provides Broadcast High Quality Test Patterns (SMPTE Bars, Full Field Bars, Grayscale, Black Reference, Red, Green, Blue, White, Center, Cross and Dots) and 6 black reference outputs to independently Genlock video/audio Systems. Specially designed Black Reference and Test Pattern generators are separately buffered when you select Test Patterns. Black Reference is not affected.  As Test Patterns and Black Reference are generated from the same sync source, thus the horizontal and sub carrier phase match. Additionally, the unit has a front panel program function for future standards/formats upgrades.

The unit can work under extreme conditions, generating very low heat and assuring 24/7 non-stop operation and protected by an all metal enclosure from magnetic and electrical interference.

This unit can survive accidents that can happen to handheld and portable devices; even accidental drops and/or liquid spills. It has minimum repair cost involved due to separately and strategically positioned front panel, main electronic board, and connectors.  The unit can be rack mounted for security purposes.
