What is this BS EN 60843-1 - Helical-scan video tape cassette system about?
BS EN 60843-1 discusses a helical-scan video tape cassette system using 12,65 mm (0,5 in) magnetic tape on type VHS with a focus on S-VHS. BS EN 60843-1 is the first part of the BS EN 60843-1 multi-series on the recording that applies to magnetic video recording and/or playback with 8 mm tape cassettes on two-head helical-scan video cassette recorders, suitable for the recording and/or playback of monochrome as well as colour television signals.
The object of BS EN 60843-1 is to define the electrical and mechanical characteristics of equipment that will provide for the interchangeability of recorded cassettes. This will include the ability to reproduce recordings made on both types of magnetic tapes defined. The requirements given are related to 525 line – 60 field or 625 line – 50 field systems, NTSC, and PAL respectively.
Who is BS EN 60843-1 - Helical-scan video tape cassette system for?
BS EN 60843-1 on helical-scan video tape cassette system is useful for:
- Helical-scan video tape cassette system manufactures
- Videographers
- Video recording technicians
Why should you use BS EN 60843-1 - Helical-scan video tape cassette system?
The luminance output is the playback level of the 5 MHz signal recorded at the RF reference recording current. It is expressed in decibels as the ratio relative to the luminance output of the reference tape.
BS EN 60843-1 discusses video tape, video tape cassette, video cassette recorders, recording characteristics of the video signal, recording characteristics of the audio signal, characteristics of the tracking system. This will help with the interchangeability of recorded cassettes.
BS EN 60843-1 provides the ability to reproduce recordings made on both types of magnetic tapes defined. The requirements given are related to 525 line – 60 field or 625 line – 50 field systems, NTSC, and PAL respectively.
