To modern eyes setup looks ill conceived. It serves no useful purpose in the studio and just wastes transmitter power. AFAIK its only purpose was to minimise flyback time artifacts on the screens of receivers.

I haven't trawled the documents but I think that 405 line (Sytem A) varied in its use of setup, finally settling on not using it.
