VTG 4 00d T es T PaTTe rns

Circles — Using the circles as a guid e, this pattern is used to evalua te
and adjust the geometry of the displa y device. The c enter crosshatch aids
in proper centering.

Safe Area (5%/10%) — This pattern is used to indicate the safe area of
display and inner safe area for titling within NTSC and PAL a pplication s.
For graphics displays, this pattern serves as a guide for symmetrical
alignment of borders and tex t.

Focus Pattern — This pattern can be used to check display focus
and resolution.

16:9 Crop — When the border of this pattern is properly aligned at the
edges of a 4:3 screen, the two horizontal lines define proper centering
and shape of a superimposed 16:9 image.

4:3 Crop — When the border of this pattern is properly aligned at the
edges of a 16:9 screen, the two vertical lines define proper centering
and shape of a superimposed 4:3 image.

Rectangle/Square Crosshairs — This pattern can be used to
properly center the image an d set geometry. For CRT-based
projectors, this pattern is used to check and adjust gross li nearity
and static convergence.

4x4 Crosshatch — This pattern can be used to set up a scaler or video
processor for 2x or 4x zoom, or 1/4 or 1/16 downsizing. An applica tion
of this crosshatch is settin g up videowall displays.

Coarse Crosshatch — This crosshatch pattern can be used to set
projector focus and geometr y. For CRT projectors, this cr osshatch p attern
is for examining and adjusti ng both static and dynamic convergence.

Fine Crosshatch — This pattern has twice the number of horizontal
and vertical lines as the Co arse Crosshatch. It is useful for critical
convergence adjustments with CRT projectors and evaluating optical
qualities of projector lense s, such as chromatic aberration.

PLUGE — The vertical bars are used to set the black level (brightnes s),
while the horizontal bars ai d in setting the contrast level for the display.

VTG 4 00d T es T PaTTe rns

20% Window — A window at 20% (20 IRE) video level, surr ounded by
black, is used in fine tuning the color balance (or grayscale ) of a dis play
with the aid of a color anal yzer. The bias (or o ffset) setting is fine tuned
for each of the RGB color ad justments.

Window ( variable level) — The video level of the window can be adjusted
between 0% (0 IRE) and 100% (100 IRE) in 1% (1 IRE) steps. This pattern
is useful in fine tuning and evaluating grayscale performance of a display.

Flat Field (variable level) — This pattern is used to evaluate white
field uniformity. For RG B signals, each color channel can be select ively
enabled to assess color unif ormity. The video level is va riable bet ween
100% (100 IRE) and 0% (0 IRE ) in 1% (1 IRE) steps.

Flat Field with Targets (variable level) — This pattern is similar to Flat
Field, with targets added to support the ANSI measurement method for
determining display brightne ss.

Checkerboard (varia ble level) — This is the ANSI contrast ratio test
pattern, for measuring contrast ratio as well as adjusting an d assessin g
CRT displ ay perform ance. This reversible pattern is variable in level
between 100% (100 IRE) and 0 % (0 IRE) in 1% (1 IRE) steps.

Bounce (automatic) — The center window alternates between 90% and
10% average picture level at 0.5 second interva ls. This pattern is used
for checking high voltage re gulation on CRT displays, as well as black
level stability.

Bounce (manual) — This is similar to the automatic Bounce pattern,
but allows the user to manua lly toggle between 90% and 10% average
picture level.

Alterna ting Pixels — This one pixel “on,” one pixel “off” pattern is used
for assessing the performanc e of high resolution monitors and projectors,
EMI testing for worst case r adiation, and pixel clocking and pixel phas ing
adjustments on a digital dis play.

Frequency Sweep — These alternating “on” and “off” vertical bars
are used to evaluate the fre quency response of an NTSC or PAL
video system.

Graphics Multiburst — This pattern of grouped alternating bars at
the highest “on” and lowest “off” video levels is used to test display
resolution capability for co mputer-video and HDTV.

32-level Split Grayscale — With two opposing rows of 32 stepped bars
of gray between the lowest a nd highest levels, this pattern i s used for
setting and assessing graysc ale tracking, and evaluating cont rast linea rity
on display.

Extreme Grayscale — This pattern features shallow grayscale ramps
that allow for evaluation of display performance with subtle (very small)
grayscale level gradations.

Ramp — This pattern is used to evaluate the performance of a displa y or
video processor on the basis of its pixel bit depth capability. The pattern
should appear to be smooth, with no contouring or stepping.

Color Bars (8-color split) — This pattern is used for testing all of
the video color channels and setting video drive levels. It i s also use d
to check low frequency cross talk between the red, green, and blue
color channels.

SMPTE Color Bars (with PLUGE pattern) — For NTSC video equipment,
the SMPTE color bars are use d to set up tint and color, while the PLUGE
video pattern is for adjusti ng brightness and contrast.

EBU Color Bars (8-color full bars) — The EBU color bars are primarily
used to set up color for PAL video equipment.

80% Window — A window at 80% (80 IRE) video level, surr ounded by
black, is used in fine tuning the color balance (or grayscale ) of a dis play
with the aid of a color anal yzer. The gain (or d rive) setting is fine tuned
for each of the RGB color ad justments.

Multiburst — This pattern of grouped alternating bars at the highest “on”
and lowest “off” video levels with increas ing freque ncy is used to test
bandwidth performance for NT SC and PAL video.

Alterna ting Pixels (2-dimensional) — This offset, one pixel “on”, one
pixel “off ” pattern is used for fine-tunin g pixel cl ocking and pixel phasing
adjustments for high resolut ion digital displays.

Multipulse — This pattern is used to measure the frequency response
and group delay of the NTSC/ PAL transmission channel.

Transient Res ponse — The high and low levels bars against the
gray background are used for evaluation of transient response of the
video signal.

Contrast Transfer Function (CTF) — This pattern is for evaluation of
total video system response. The VTG 400 LCD display provides an
indication of contrast trans fer percentage when the user has matched
the brightness of the horizo ntal lines to that of the vertical lines.

H Pattern — This pattern is used to check or evaluate video clamping
stability, focus for pro jectors, and video pulse response , as well as
to simulate text. The user can to ggle betwe en white-on-black and
black-on-white.

Hum Bar Test (variable level) — This pattern is used to reveal the
presence of any hum bars whi ch indicate interference attributable to the
video signal or the equipmen t. The test pat tern level is adjustable from
1% to 100%.
