5.4 Getting to Know Your FC-4042
The KRAMER FC-4042 RGB-Component Transcoder interfaces between the two most widely
used professional video formats: Component Video (Y, R-Y, B-Y) and RGBS. In many video
studios and production centers there is a need to convert from one format to the other, and the
Kramer FC-4042 is the perfect choice as it operates simultaneously in both directions.
Front/Rear panel features of the FC-4042 are described in
Figure 4 and Table 5.
NOTE
For operation instructions refer to section 9.
