In the centre is the Tektronix oscilloscope used as the master waveform monitor, to both sides are the 4 Operational Control Panels (OCP) for the Pye Mk6 cameras. To the left is the vision supervisors control panel.
The rear of the monitor stack (zone 2)
This jumble of wires shows the connections to the picture and the waveform monitors. At the bottom are the 4 camera power supply units with a space for a fifth one if needed. In the bottom left, one corner of the manual mains voltage regulator can be seen.
This is the equipment area (zone 1)
Most prominent is the mains distribution panel with the 4 Camera Control Units (CCU) behind. Below are the Sync Pulse Generators (SPG), the Distribution Amplifiers, test signal generators and the audio tape recorder.
This picture and the previous one were taken through the open offside door.
