Calibration on page 44.

The PlasmaView VHD stores any changes you make to these settings in the

Note currently-selected ISF preset (ISF Day or ISF Night). After calibrating the display for one ISF preset, save your settings, select the other ISF preset and repeat the process.

HD Format: If the characteristics of the incoming signal on the HD1 or HD2 inputs are known, select HD Format from the Service menu and set them as described below. Doing so can reduce the time it takes the VHD Controller to switch from HD to 480i signals or vice versa.

This is generally not necessary unless the VHD Controller – for whatever reason – has difficulty determining the color space (RGB or YUV), bandwidth or resolution of the incoming HD signal. In most situations, the Auto settings work well.

HD/RGB 1 and HD/RGB 2 (Color Space): Select Auto, RGB or YUV.

ADC Bandwidth: Select Auto, 75 MHz, 150 MHz or 300 MHz.

YPbPr Input Resolution: Select Auto or specify the input resolution, if known: 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, 720p or 1080i.

Triggers: Select Triggers from the Service menu to configure the 12-volt trigger outputs. You can assign one or more trigger outputs to each aspect ratio. Those triggers are then activated by selecting that aspect ratio.

To save the trigger settings so that they can be restored after a System Reset (described below), press repeatedly to highlight “Save.” Then, press ENTER.
