Tektronix WFM300A-10

The WFM300A is a comprehensive component television signal monitor with important features to monitor associated composite signals. It is designed specifically for signal evaluation and equipment alignment in production suites using RGB, Betacam or MII component formats. In addition, composite (NTSC or PAL) waveforms existing in the facility may be monitored with the WFM300A and composite vectors displayed on a companion 1720 Series composite vectorscope.

The WFM300A provides a full set of component monitoring features. Its innovative and unique Lightning display allows accurate adjustment of component equipment to replay Betacam or MII format tapes without a requirement for special test signals. Off-tape color bars provide all necessary information to quickly set the playback recorder setup, video gain, chroma and Y/C delay for accurate reproduction. All of these recorder adjustments are accomplished while viewing one convenient, easy-to-interpret display. Electronic graticules for the various component formats used throughout the world are selected from an on-screen menu.
