Silicon Image, Inc. iScan Pro User Manual

Since nearly all televisions sold are CRT-based, it is likely that the gray bar setting is the safest for
your display. However, LCD and DLP-based projectors and displays do not suffer from burn-in so it
is safe to use the black bar setting.
Picture Controls
The iScan Pro provides the ability to adjust five picture control settings. These are:
Brightness
Contrast
Saturation (Color)
Hue (Tint)
Sharpness
To adjust a picture control setting, turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase the setting or
counterclockwise to decrease the setting. This is shown in the figure below.

The iScan Pro is shipped with picture control settings at nominal.
Please note that Sharpness and Hue functions are not applicable to the component input.
Film Mode Indicator
The blue “film” indicator on the iScan Pro front panel turns on whenever the iScan Pro has
recognized a video sequence that is originally captured from film. The indicator may turn off if the
video sequence captured is film and there is very little motion.
