incremented or decremented by one. Pressing the Control Dial in
monentarily causes the viewed item to be selected. Selected items
can be either a menu item or a setup parameter. Parameters
become stored and effective upon exiting the main menu.
Monitor Default Values
Initially set the monitor parameters to PercuVision®
recommended values. Only two parameters need to be changed
from the factory default values.
• Black Level = 70
• Video Source = Composite
The Black Level can only be set when video is detected (LED =
GREEN). The Video Source can be assigned to Composite
independent of the Video Detect State (LED = ORANGE or LED =
GREEN). If for some reason the display monitor becomes
suboptimal, reset the monitor to default values and then define
video source to be Composite and increase Black Level to 70. If still
suboptimal, call customer support.
