Use the Calibration menu to perform advanced picture quality adjustments on the analog inputs. This menu should be used by ISF-certified technicians only.

To calibrate the digital (HDMI 1 and HDMI 2) inputs, use the Display

Note Image controls in the Service menu. For more information, refer to Display Device on page 47.

You must enter a passcode to access the Calibration menu.

Note

To recall the ISF Night or ISF Day settings, select “ISF Night” or “ISF Day” from the ISF Presets menu (see above). Or, use the corresponding buttons on the remote control.

ISF Night - Display Color: Use the Display Color settings to adjust the color balance at the display device (as opposed to the VHD Controller) for analog sources (up to 1080i). These settings are saved independently for each input.

•Gain: Use the Gain controls to correct color imbalances in the bright areas of the image. A good way to do this is to use a test pattern consisting mostly of solid white areas, such as an 80 IRE “window” pattern. If the white areas contain traces of red, green or blue, decrease the Gain for that color.

•Offset: Use the Offset controls in the White Balance sub-menu to correct color imbalances in the dark areas of the image. A good way to do this is to use a test pattern consisting mostly of dark gray areas, such as a 30 IRE “window” pattern. If the gray areas contain traces of red, green or blue, decrease the Offset for that color.

•Gamma: The default gamma setting (1) is correct for almost all signals and conditions. If excess ambient light washes out the image and it becomes difficult or impossible to see details in dark areas, lower the gamma setting to compensate. This will improve contrast while maintaining good details for blacks. Conversely, if the image is washed out and unnatural, with excessive detail in black areas, increase the setting. Again, good gamma improves contrast while maintaining good details for blacks and whites.

•Color Temp.: Select Color Temp from the Display Color menu to adjust the color temperature. For most situations, the appropriate setting is (1). The higher setting (2) produces a “bluer” picture; the lower one (0) a “warmer” picture with more pronounced red and orange hues.

•AGC (Automatic Gain Control): AGC increases the brightness of dark signals automatically. To enable AGC, set it to 1 (on). To disable it, set it to 0 (off).

•Input Level: The Input Level control allows you to adjust parts which are extremely bright and hard to see. (This cannot be adjusted when the input signal is digital.)

ISF Night - Input Image: The Input Image controls are similar to those in the Picture menu, but are accessible only by entering the Calibration menu passcode. This makes it possible to restore the picture quality settings to what they were when the display was installed, simply by recalling the “ISF Night” preset.
