Waveform : 3 sizes of waveform are available

The background transparency in overlay mode can be adjusted
in MENU/MEASURE

Considerations about the use of
measurement tools in 3DView mode

When using the 3DView mode the tool’s spot displays the two inputs
simultaneously. It is valid for the Waveform, Histogram and Vectorscope.

To identify clearly the source, each spot uses a specific color.
The colors used are the same as those selected for the Anaglyph/Monochrome
mode.
The selection of the color is done in MENU/3D/…

i.e. Using the HISTOGRAM with RED CYAN colors will display input 1 in RED and
input 2 in CYAN. The common values of the HISTOGRAM will be displayed in
white, the differences in BLUE or CYAN.

i.e. Using the HISTOGRAM with RED/BLUE colors will display input 1 in RED and
input 2 in BLUE. The common values of the HISTOGRAM will be displayed in
MAGENTA, the differences in RED or BLUE.

ZOOM

Displays the HD picture in full resolution mode (pixel to pixel).
Depending of the input format, the magnification ratio can be different.

Displays the SD picture in full screen. In this case there is an important
magnification ratio applied to the original picture, the resultant picture includes
created pixels and lines and cannot be considered as a proof. In this mode the
waveform will be superimposed to the picture.

Arrows & Rotating knob

In zoom mode arrows move the picture on Top/Bottom, Left/Right positions; Fine
adjustment can be made by rotating the rotating knob.

A long push on the ZOOM pad centers the picture, the next push sends back to
the full picture display.

During the zoom mode a pictogram is displayed in the right side of the tool zone.
This pictogram indicates the relative position of the magnified zone in the original
picture.

ASPECT RATIO

Allows the change of aspect ratio between:

1.33:1 4/3 SD only

1.78:1 16/9 HD & SD

2.40:1 HD & SD

Service & Maintenance

General

Please read carefully the chapter « TRANSVIDEO Equipment Limited Warranty »

about the warranty given by TRANSVIDEO S.A. on the equipment described in

this manual.

For repairs after the warranty period, you can refer to your local TRANVIDEO

Distributor/retailer or use the following procedure.

Useful tips

CLEANING

The painting of the CineMonitorHD3DView is resistant to general cleaners and

solvents. Do not use abrasive products to clean the CineMonitorHD3DView.

The front glass is a high quality optical part. A metallic multi-layers vacuum

deposit makes the anti-reflection coating. Do not use abrasive or acid cleaners.

The microfiber cloth delivered with the CineMonitorHD3DView is strongly

recommended to clean the glass. Remove dust and particles of the glass before

using the cloth. No liquid is normally necessary. If there is some dirt on the

screen, it is possible to remove it with clean warm water.

The microfiber cloth collects grease particle in its structure. It is necessary to

wash it when necessary with water and soap.

The microfiber cloth is orderable as spare part (see accessories)

FULL RESET

In case of need, it is possible to fully reset the CineMonitorHD3DView.

Connect the monitor to a power source

Switch off the monitor with the power switch on the back

Press the “adjust” pad

Switch on the monitor keeping pressed the “adjust” pad until the display shows

“FULL RESET”

This procedure totally erases all user setup in the memories.
