Setting the Input and Output

The V-44SW handles input and output video in differing video

formats, thus requiring adjustment of the image quality and

field of view for each format.

Appropriate settings need to be made for the input and output,

to accommodate both the device that will be supplying the

input to the V-44SW and the device to which the V-44SW will

be outputting video.

●

Confirm the settings for the input and output by checking the

output video as you make the settings.

Setting the Output Format

1

Press one of the OUTPUT FORMAT buttons [1080i],

[720p], or [RGB] to select the output video format.

Select the output format matching the specifications of the

display you are using to display the final video output.

The V-44SW is set at the factory to allow selection of the

following formats with the OUTPUT FORMAT buttons.

<Factory Settings>

If selecting a different output format, follow the instructions

in “Changing the Output Format” to change the output

format for each OUTPUT FORMAT button.

You can the change the output formats assigned to each

OUTPUT FORMAT button.

1

Press the [MENU] button to display the Main menu.

2

Select “1. Output” then select the name of the button

whose setting you want to change with “1: Output

Format (1080i) Sw”–”3: Output Format (RGB) Sw” in

the sub-menu.

3

Set the output format.

For more on output formats, refer to“Compatible Output

Formats” (p. 31).

Start by making settings for the output.

Settings determining image quality, such as those for the

brightness, hue, and contrast, need to be made for both

the input and output. However, when adjusting image

quality, you should begin by making settings for the

output, so they serve as a reference point for other

adjustments.

If you adjust the image quality of the input first, then

change the output settings later on, the video’s colors

and field of view will end up differing from those at the

time the input settings were made.
