WARNING
GENERAL SAFETY SUMMARY
Review the following safety precautions to avoid operator's injury and loss of life
and prevent damage and deterioration to this instrument. To avoid potential hazards, use
this product as specified.
■Warnings on the Cases and Panels of the Instrument
Operator should not remove any cases or panel for any reasons. If you touch
inside the instrument it could result personal shock or fire hazard. Refrain
from spilling any liquid on or inserting anything flammables or piece of metal
into the ventilation of the instrument. Such actions could cause fire, shock,
malfunction and be an accident hazard while the power is on.
■Warnings on Power Line
●Make sure to connect only to the rated power line voltage. Excess
voltage may cause fire.
Confirm the voltage of the commercial power line before connecting the AC power
cord. The power frequency of the power line should be 50/60 Hz.
●Warning on the Power Cord
Use only the optional power cord that is attached to this instrument. The use of the
power cord other than that attached could cause fire hazard.
If the attached cord is damaged stop using it and contact your local LEADER
agent. Should you use a damaged cord, it could cause a shock or create a fire
hazard. When you pull out the cord be sure to hold it by plug and pull from the
socket not by holding the cord wire.
●Cover/Inlet stopper
Use the Cover/Inlet stopper that comes with the package only after establishing
a means to immediately shut down the power supply when a malfunction
occurs on the LT 443D.

WARNING
GENERAL SAFETY SUMMARY
■Warning on Installation Environments
●About the Operating Temperature Range
Operate the instrument between the temperature range of 0 to 40 °C. Operating the
instrument at higher temperatures could cause a fire hazard.
Rapid changes of temperatures from cold to warm can create internal moisture or
condensation and could damage the instrument. If there is a possibility of moisture
condensation allow the instrument to sit for 30 minutes without the power on.
●About the Operating Humidity Range
Operating humidity range is ≤90 % RH.
Do not operate the instrument with wet hands. This could cause a shock and fire
hazard.
●About the Operation in the Presence of Gasses
Operating the instrument in and near the presence or storage locations of flam-
mable, explosive gasses or fumes could create an explosion and fire hazard. Do not
operate the instrument anywhere near such environments.
●Avoid Insertions
Do not insert metals or flammable objects or drop liquid on or into the instrument.
To do so could cause fire, shock, malfunction and create a dangerous accident haz-
ard.
■Abnormal symptom
Incase of smoke, fire, or abnormal smell while operating this instrument,
immediately disconnect the power cord from the mains. Otherwise, you run
the risk of fire or electrical shock. If the trouble cannot be solved, contact
your local LEADER agent.
■Warning about Ground
The instrument has a ground terminal to avoid electric shock hazard and to protect the
instrument from damage. Ensure that the product is properly grounded for safe opera-
tion.

CAUTION
GENERAL SAFETY SUMMARY
■Caution on Input/Output Terminals
Input Terminals are rated with a maximum input. Do not supply an input over the
specified rating in the standard section of the instruction manual. Also, do not supply
external power to Output terminal, this could cause the instrument to malfunction.
■Caution when Not Using the Instrument for a Long Time
Make sure to disconnect the power cord from the socket when you do not use the
instrument for a long time.
Please conform to the above warnings and cautions for safe operation. There are cautions in
each area of this instruction manual, so please conform to each caution. If you have any
questions about this manual, please feel free to contact your local LEADER agent.

2. SPECIFICATIONS
2.1 Description
The LT 443D Signal Generator can be flexibly used for the multiformat digital broadcast
systems. Various plug-in units enable the output of SDI signals (i.e., HDTV, SDTV), sync
signals, and analog signals. By using these signals and genlock functions, users can
customize this signal generator as desired.
2.2 Features
• Plug-in units provide various functions
Since up to four plug-in units can be installed in the mainframe (consisting of a power
supply, main signal generator, and controller), users can customize this signal generator
as desired.
• Applicable to multiformat HDTV
For the SDI signals, HDTV 14 format unit and 525 line/625 line SDTV unit are provided.
The NTSC/PAL analog video signal unit is also available.
Since each unit can output the signal simultaneously, a multiformat system can be
constructed to satisfy user’s requirements.
•Various sync outputs
Two units can simultaneously output HD signals with 74.25 MHz clock and 74.25/1.001
MHz clock.
•Easy-to-use sync signals
For today’s modern age of digital TV systems, BB signal (for NTSC, PAL) and HDTV tri-
level sync signals can be generated from the Analog BB Unit.
• Ethernet provided
Since the ethernet capability is provided as standard. This feature can remotely control
various functions and monitor he genlock status.
•User-friendly operability
LEADER’s traditional design and operability concepts are also reflected in this
instrument. User-friendly operation includes significantly reduced power-on initialization
time is advantageous to a high-performance instrument.

2.5.2 LT 443D-GLA
2.5.2.1 Description
This unit provides genlock capability to lock the LT 443D mainframe with the external
reference signal, and three independent black signal generators.
The NTSC/PAL black burst signals, principal 20 types of HDTV analog tri-level sync
signal formats, and 525p/625p analog sync signals can be used as an external
reference signal.
The following black burst signal formats can be selected.
For NTSC/PAL system, black burst signal with field reference pulse is provided. For
NTSC system, black burst with 10-field sequence identification conforming to the
SMPTE 318M standards is provided.
The instrument continues operation since the flywheel mode is provided even if the
external reference signal is accidentally removed in genlock mode. By logging the
genlock status, the time can be obtained when the external reference signal is
removed. The log information can be stored on the CF CARD.
The genlock timing can be adjusted for the entire color frame range when the NTSC/
PAL black burst signal is applied; entire frame range when the HDTV analog tri-level
sync signal is applied.
Three black burst signal output systems with selectable formats are available as
follows:
For NTSC/PAL system, standard black burst signal and black burst signal with field
reference pulse are provided. For NTSC system, black burst with 10-field sequence
identification conforming to the SMPTE 318M standards, 525p/625p analog sync
signal, and HDTV analog tri-level sync signal are provided.
The format and output signal timing of each output can be respectively set.
The black signal timing can be adjusted for the entire color frame range when the
NTSC/PAL black burst signal is applied; entire frame range when the HDTV analog tri-
level sync signal is applied.

2.5.6 LT 443D-DA
2.5.6.1 Description
Installing the LT 443D-DA Digital Audio Unit in the LT 443D mainframe can output
AES/EBU digital audio signals (four systems), silence signals (one system), and 48
kHz word clock signals.
The AES/EBU signal characteristics (e.g., output level, frequency) can be
independently set for each output system.
The sampling frequency is synchronized with the video signal of plug-in unit installed
in the mainframe.

2.5.8 LT 443D-CS
2.5.8.1 Description
The LT 443D-CS Analog Composite Unit adds the NTSC/PAL analog composite
signal output capability to the LT 443D mainframe. Various functions (e.g., ID
character, simple motion pictures, NATURAL picture pattern *1) are provided.
*1: The NATURAL picture function is only usable when the Option LT 443D-70 is
installed in the mainframe.
