8.Blue Gun & Mono (Monochrome Black & White)
Use to adjust SMPTE or split field color bars.
1.Allow monitor to warm up for 15-20 minutes minimum. Adjustments will not be accurate on a cold monitor.
2.Display SMPTE color bars on monitor. Turn on Mono
3.Find the PLUGE (superblack, black, and gray bars) at the lower right of the pattern. Adjust BRIGHT- NESS control until there is no difference visible between the superblack and black bars, but a difference is visible between the black and gray bars.
4.Adjust CONTRAST control to achieve a balanced gray scale across top bars.
5.Turn off Mono then turn on BLUE GUN
6.Turn up CHROMA(color level) control until the two outermost bars (white and blue appear to match in brightness.
7.NTSC Only -Adjust COLOR PHASE (tint or hue) control until the third bar from the left (cyan) and the third bar from the right (magenta) appear to match in brightness.
9. Overlay Enable
Must be turned on to enable Frame Marker, Center Mark and Safe Area functions.
10.Frame Marker (Only active in 16:9 display mode) (Requires OVL to be enabled)
Frame Aspect Markers appear as RED lines that are used to frame the image for an additional screen format when 16:9 display is enabled. For example 4:3 marker is often used for HD broadcasts that are also down converted and cropped for SD trans- mission. Frame markers are available for 4:3, 15:9, 14:9, 13:9, 1.85:1, 2.35:1 and 2.37:1 screen aspects.
11.Center Mark (Requires OVL to be enabled)
A cross hair cursor is placed on the middle of the screen. The lines of the cross hair consist of a center white element that is 4 pixels wide, surrounded by a black border on each side that is 2 pixels wide. Use of black and white for the Center Mark function allows the viewer to see screen center in all ranges of color for the screen image.
12.Safe Area Overlay (Requires OVL to be enabled)
A shaded border is placed onto the edge of image indicating a user selected area deemed to be safe for graphic and other image placement. Safe Area overlays are available that indicate 80%, 88%, 90%, and 93% of the displayed im- age. The safe area displays for the selected screen aspect.
13. Image Adjustment Controls
Use to adjust image appearance on the screen. The tint control will only function for NTSC composite and S-Video sources and is not available in all other formats. Each knob has a center detent position that approxi- mates a normal setting calibrated to standard SMPTE color bars.
14. HyperProcess™ Interlace Image Motion Compensation (Disabled for progressive and PC formats)
Holding OSD then tapping TEMP will toggle through 3 selections of interlace motion compensation.
Interlace images such as 1080i and 480i must be converted to progressive images for presentation on the LCD/TFT screen. This is accomplished via 3 user selected interpolation programs. Default, MC-1 and MC-2.
Interpolations are performed based on motion of individual pixels in 7x7 pixel groupings for luminance and chrominance. Motion is detected in horizontal, vertical, and diagonal directions.
The default setting uses inter-field interpolation processing to create an image based on field 1 plus field 2 changes and outputs to the screen 60 or 50 times per second based on input frame rate. Each frame is made up of the current field information plus changes detected in the transition from the previous field. There is a one frame propagation delay in this mode.
MC-1– Intra-field interpolation processing is used to transform each field into a single progressive frame based upon information within the field. There is a single field propagation delay in this mode.
MC-2– Uses inter-field processing to generate true frame of field one plus field 2 with no motion compensation. Images are presented via a segmented frame system that creates progressive frames based upon 2 half image samples of odd and even lines much the same as CRT processing for interlaced images. Motion artifacts will appear as jagged edges in this mode since field one and field two frames are displayed simultaneously with no compensation for spatial motion during the sample period. MC-2 has a one frame propagation delay.
