CRT Adjustment Menu
PED LEVEL: Altering the PED level will slightly alter the output voltage of the composite video out, altering the way that a CRT monitor will build images by combining the red, green and blue pixels on screen. Higher values will give brighter images, particularly in darker areas of greyscale. This is an expert feature – we’d recommend not touching it unless you know exactly what you’re doing.
COLOR GAIN: The amount of color in the video signal. As different televisions and monitors have different native saturation levels (LCDs are typically less saturated than a CRT, for example) you might need to adjust the level here to get “natural” looking images. Remember, you don’t need rich, vivid images for the purposes of security footage – sometimes lowering the saturation creates a sharper image which might be more useful for identifying fine details or recognising individuals.
