Adjusting Levels for Analog Sources

13 Adjust Levels for Analog Sources

This page applies to analog RGB (computer) pictures only. The levels are best adjusted semi-automatically.

For analog RGB pictures, the levels for black and white vary from one computer to another, or from one video processor to another. They even vary between video outputs from a multi- ple-output video card in a computer.

Your pictures will not look their best on the c50R/c67R until you adjust for these differences. This is not about adjusting color or contrast. It’s about telling the c50R/c67R what the computer or processor means by black and by white.

Semi-Automatic Level Adjustment

1Select a source in the PICTURE menu. Display an all-black picture from the source computer. This must come from the computer source that will be used for the program.

Note: We suggest displaying a black screen using Windows® Paint.

2 To access the INPUT LEVELS menu, press LEVEL.

3Select AUTO BLACK LEVEL and press ENTER. This menu line says “Working…” until the process is complete.

Note: When doing Auto Black and Auto White with an interlaced analog input, the color of the picture will change while it is working, then it will change back to normal.

Manual Level Adjustment

1Select a source in the PICTURE menu. Display an all-black picture from the source computer.

2INPUT LEVELS menu, Press LEVEL on the remote.

3Select BLACK LEVEL and adjust it up and down with the -/+ keys to make the three center point values go to zero. Once any value reaches zero, use the individual colors under black level to adjust the other two values to zero.

Note: Do not go beyond the point where the minimum just goes to zero. The idea is to just touch the zero level.

5In the INPUT LEVELS menu, select AUTO WHITE LEVEL and

press ENTER. Wait for “Working…” to disappear.

6The c50R/c67R is now adjusted to the black and white lev- els of this computer using this video card. If you change computers or video output cards in the computer, you must do this again.

4 Display an all-white picture from the source computer.

5Adjust WHITE LEVEL until the image maximums just go to 255. Once any value reaches 255, use the individual colors

under white level to adjust the other two values to 255.

6Although it’s not required, it is recommended that you save the configuration to a memory slot. See the Installa- tion & Configuration Guide CD for more information.
