Use the ‹/›Navigation Controls q 6 to adjust the position of the image if it is not initially centered on the screen.

•Horizontal Total: This temperature bar reflects the horizontal size of the displayed image. When the gray square is completely to the left and the numerical value is 0, the image

is at maximum width. Use the ‹/› Navigation Controls q 6 to adjust the width of the image until it fills the screen.

•Vertical Resolution: This temperature bar reflects the verti- cal size of the displayed image in terms of the number of pixels used. When the gray square is completely to the left and the numerical value is 0, the image is at maximum height. Use the ‹/›Navigation Controls q 6 to adjust the vertical height of the image until it fills the screen.

When a composite or S-video source

is in use, selecting the Input Settings will take you to the VIDEO SETTINGS menu (Fig. 36). The Video Standard line is informational only, and will reflect the video standard for your country.

	PIP Mode: This line of the
	INPUTS/PIP menu turns the pic-
	ture-in-picture feature on or off. In order
	to use this feature, you must connect the
	composite video output of a source that
	you desire to monitor to the Picture-in-
56	Picture (PIP) Composite Video Input

a. PIP mode is only available when the current source input is using composite video (not component or S-video). PIP mode enables you to monitor the source connected to the PIP input while watch- ing another video source. When desired, you may swap the images by pressing and holding the PIP Swap Button c 17 for several seconds. This will display the main source in the PIP win- dow and the PIP source in the main viewing area.

There are two available PIP modes: in one mode a small inset window will appear on the CVPD50 screen, and it will display the source connected to the PIP input. The second mode splits the screen into two equal halves, displaying the main video signal on the left side and the PIP source on the right. Press the Set Button s 7 repeatedly while at the PIP Mode line to cycle through these modes and the Off setting. The remaining settings in the INPUTS/ PIP menu enable you to adjust the size and position of the PIP window.

PIP Size: The temperature bar at this line reflects the size of the PIP win- dow. When the dark square is towards the right side of the bar, the window is increased in size, and when the square is towards the left side of the bar, the win- dow is decreased in size. Use the ‹/› Navigation Controls q 6 to adjust this setting. Pressing the Set Button s

7repeatedly will only increase the size of the window, but not decrease it.

PIP Horiz. Pos.: The tempera- ture bar at this line reflects the relative horizontal position of the PIP window on the CVPD50 screen. When the dark square is towards the right side of the bar, the window is positioned toward the right side of the screen, and when the square is towards the left side of the bar, the window is positioned toward the left side of the screen. Use the ‹/›

Navigation Controls q 6 to adjust

this setting. Pressing the Set Button s 7 repeatedly will only move the window towards the right, but not towards the left.

PIP Vert. Pos.: The tempera- ture bar at this line reflects the relative vertical position of the PIP window on the CVPD50 screen. When the dark square is towards the right side of the bar, the win- dow is positioned toward the top of the screen, and when the square is towards the left side of the bar, the window is

positioned toward the bottom of the screen. Use the ‹/›Navigation Controls q 6 to adjust this setting. Pressing the Set Button s 7 repeat- edly will only move the window upwards, but not downwards.

You may wish to use a test disc to guide you through the adjustment process. Several are available from Internet retailers.

Alternatively, we recommend that you select one of the three factory preset modes designed for optimal display of various types of programs. These modes are also directly accessible from both remote controls. The Sports mode is designed for the types of images normally used in sporting events; the Movies mode displays the images found in many movies, which are often darker than normal; and the Broadcast mode offers the best display of broadcast television programs.

Contrast: This setting is also known as “white level”, and is most easily set using a test pattern containing a grayscale – monochrome bars in different shades of black, gray and white. Adjust this setting between –64 and 63 to the point just before the brightest bars of your test pattern start to bleed into the surrounding black background. If you do not have a test pattern, adjust it to the lowest level where all shades of a given color remain visible.

Brightness: This setting is also known as “black level”, and it should be adjusted using a PLUGE pattern found on a test disc. Adjust this setting between –64 and 63 to the lowest point where one of the moving lines in the black field remains visible, but before both disap- pear. If you do not have a test pattern,
