7.5 Setup Question (specific)

Question

Ok. I've read about everything I can regarding IRE levels, digital black levels, etc. I have one question regarding my own situation.
If I record digital video (miniDV) correctly (with black levels at 16) and then play it back through a JVC DV deck which outputs the signal for monitoring to a Sony Broadcast monitor, how should the '7.5 Setup' switch be applied on the different devices? Both the JVC Deck and the Sony Broadcast monitor have a '7.5 Setup' switch (as does my JVC 5000U camera for that mater). It's properly recorded digital tape in a digital deck to analog monitoring (via S-Video and RCA audio cables).
Both the DV Deck AND the broadcast monitor have a '7.5 Setup' switch. My question is, do both switches (a) ADD 7.5 Setup to the signal (and therefore only one switch should be on) or (b) does the deck switch add '7.5 Setup' and the monitor switch for telling the monitor if '7.5 Setup' has been added (and therefore both switches should be on)? Or, does it not matter for monitoring purposes, only for broadcasting (however, I can't imagine this is the case as the picture changes on the monitor depending on how the switches are set)?
I'm using digital formats the entire process so outputting for TV Broadcast is not really an issue. My question is specifically for calibrating my broadcast monitor to acurately view (and edit) what I'll see when playing the video back on a TV in the YUV color space.
I hope this all makes sense. I'm at an 80% level of understanding this whole issue, just need a little clarification. If you have any questions to ask me if it's not clear, please do so!
Thank you all in advance!

Answer 1

Great article. I copied the section relevant to my situation below:
Accurate Video Monitoring
To ensure accurate video monitoring, your video monitor should be correctly calibrated to your system. The key thing to remember is that the “Brightness” control on your monitor should more correctly be labeled “Black Level”. The setting of the black level control on your monitor will determine which analogue voltage you the viewer will perceive as black when you view the image on the monitor. By adjusting this control correctly you can calibrate your monitor to show you a true image whether your DV deck, for instance, adds 7.5 IRE setup correctly or not to it’s analogue outputs.
Problems can occur when you monitor multiple video sources through the same monitor, for instance an analogue deck and a digital deck. In this situation, if the digital deck does not correctly add 7.5 IRE setup, you would need two different monitor calibrations, which is tricky to achieve. The solution is to add a “proc amp”, an analogue video manipulation device that can raise the analogue output from the digital deck by 7.5 IRE, making up for the lack of such circuitry inside the deck itself.
I have a JVC deck that DOES correctly add 7.5 IRE Setup if needed, but this ONLY matters if I'm dubbing to an analogue format, correct? If I'm just monitoring through a broadcast monitor to color correct in Final Cut Pro, I should:
-use the 7.5 IRE Setup switch on the JVC deck
-calibrate the monitor to 7.5 IRE being the darkest black
My question still is, what is the 7.5 IRE Setup switch on the monitor for? Should both switches be on, or does that add 7.5 IRE twice? My gut is that the monitor 7.5 IRE switch also adds 7.5 IRE and thus should be off, provided the JVC deck 7.5 IRE switch is on.
Is anyone following me?
Thanks.
