Television Signal Monitor

Harris’ Videotek® VTM-100 Television Signal Monitor displays waveform, vector and audio information for analog composite, Y/C (requires optional YC-1 adapter), and component video signals plus analog audio on a composite video monitor. The VTM-100’s three passive looping inputs auto-detect the incoming video format for NTSC or PAL and changes the graticule and output format accordingly.

The VTM-100 provides a waveform and/or vector display of the input video. The waveform and vector can be displayed independently or as a combination of both. All waveform/vector displays can be keyed or mixed with the picture on screen.

Other features include line select, waveform filters, V Gain, and H Mag. The input format and SC/H measurement are displayed on screen with alarms for SC/H, Burst and Sync level, for easy reference and user convenience.

The VTM-100 provides convenient operation and control from the front panel through a dropdown menu or remotely via a mouse or any PC.

With features usually found only in more expensive test instruments such as waveform parade and overlay, vertical and horizontal sweep rates and magnifications, flat/low pass and chroma filters or full field line select the VTM-100 is the complete test instrument for any analog video testing application in a cost effective package.
