Purity offers eight different full field patterns:

Black, White (100% Y)
Primary colors: Red, Green, Blue

Complementary colors: Magenta, Yellow, Cyan

P01: White

P02: Blue
P03: Red

P04: Magenta
P05: Green
P06: Cyan

P07: Yellow
P08: Black

Application

1. The red and green patterns are most frequently used for checking
color purity. The red pattern is selected only this color should be vis­ible; the presence of any other color is an indication that color purity
needs adjustment.

2. The green pattern provides a purity check for three in-line tubes. In the
in-line tubes, the guns are in a horizontal position and the green gun is
located in the center.

3. The blue is the complementary colors are often used to check the
color performance.

4. The red are used to ensure that there is no interference between the
sound and chroma carrier. Furthermore the red pattern is used to ad­just the longplay delay level to minimum flicker.

5. In addition to the primary and complementary colors 100% white can
be selected as well as black pattern with color burst to check.

Gradual pattern

Gradual transition of colors.

P09: Red

P10: Green

P11: Blue
P12: Gray

P10

P11

P12

Application

This pattern is for brightness control and luminance writing current. And this
can overall the color performance, amplitude response/resolution and
linearity of chroma amplitude.

P13

Color Bar

Comprises 8 vertical bars- White, Yellow, Cyan,
Green, Magenta, Red, Blue and Black

Application

The white bar, to adjust the amplitude of the color difference signals with
respect to the luminance signal on the picture tube. The blue and green
guns can be switched off to allow the amplitude of the R-Y signal to be ad­justed. This is done by ensuring that no difference in brightness is observed
between vertical bars five and six of the color bar and the horizontal refer­ence bar. In a similar fashion, the amplitude of the B-Y demodulator can
be determined.

P14

Grayscale

Full screen linear staircase signal with 8/16/32/64

identical steps from black to white

P14: 8 steps
P15: 16 steps

P16: 32 steps

P15

P16

P17

Application

This is used to locate faulty linearity of the video amplifier or greyscale set­ting. Nonlinearities mainly result in a compression of the white level.

Black circles on white background, 640x480 has 4 by
3 total 12 circles, 800x600 has 5 by 3 total 15 circles,
1024x768 has 6 by 4 total 24 circles,

Application

It’s suited for checking the overall linearity and geometry of the screen of a
monitor or TV.

P32

Black/White Up/Down

Full screen filled with upper half of 100% white and
lower half of 100% black.

Application

This pattern is for brightness control and purity checking. Also, to do the
white setting and synchronization.

P37

P38

Application

P33: This pattern is used for a reflection check or for adjusting the VCR
video demodulator to a symmetrical black and white jump or opposite.
P34: This pattern serves for a quick check of color monitor.
P35,P36: This pattern can be used to check the video handling capabilities
of most parts of a television system.
P37,P38: The wrong brightness setting on the monitor may cause other tests
such as Contrast, Focus and Beam Size to be invalid.

P39

HDCP-Produce

Green/Blue horizontal bars with HDCP verification
and data comparison on the upper first third area of
black background

Application

To test DVI and HDMI receivers with HDCP. All DVI and HDMI options, in­cluding analyzer options, support HDCP production keys if the HDCP option
is installed.
