Abstract

An automatic television camera setup system includes a memory for storing the measured data detected from the camera viewing a setup chart. Addresses for and control of the data to be stored in the memory is provided by left, center, and right column counters where the left counter increments in response to features detected at the left side of the television raster, the center column counter increments in response to features detected at the horizontal center of the television raster and the right column counter increments in response to features detected at the right side of the television raster. A 2-bit address is also associated with which of the left, center or right side of the raster is being scanned.
