Aspect

Switch aspect ratio setting among from [Full][17:9][16:9][4:3][1.85:1][2.35:1].
For example:

In [Full] mode, images are scaled to fill the entire screen.

In [4:3] mode, images are scaled up or down to fill the maximum 4:3 portion of
the screen.

In [16:9] mode, images are scaled to fill the entire screen if the device aspect is
16:9.

Underscan

If the image shows size error, use this setting to zoom in/out pictures
automatically when receiving HDMI signals

Pixel to Pixel

The pixel to pixel is a monitor set to 1:1 pixel mapping with native fixed pixels,
which avoids loss of sharpness due to scaling artifacts and normally avoids
incorrect aspect ratio due to stretching.

Check Field

Use the check field modes for monitor calibration or to analyze individual color
components of an image. The device preset in Blue, Green, and Red check
field modes, only the selected color will be shown.

Peaking

The peaking is used to aid the camera operator in obtaining the sharpest
possible picture. Select "On" to display colored outlines around sharp areas of
the image.

NOTE: Peaking color and level only can be changed when under SDI mode.

15

False Color

This monitor has a false color filter to aid in the setting of camera exposure.
As the camera Iris is adjusted, elements of the image will change color based
on the luminance or brightness values. This enables proper exposure to be
achieved without the use of costly, complicated external equipment.

Exposure & Exposure Level

The exposure feature helps the user achieve optimum exposure by displaying
diagonal lines over areas of the image that exceed the setting exposure level.

The exposure level can be set to 0~100.

Note: Only available when under SDI mode.

16

Histogram

The histogram makes users view visually the exposure of whole and each
RGM channels. It has the full contrast rang of video for easy color correction
during post production.

NOTE: Only available when under SDI mode.

Time Code

The Time Code supports Longitudinal time code (LTC) and Vertical interval time
code (VITC). The time code display on the monitor is synchronizing with that of
Full HD camcorder’s. It displays the duration of the clips in hours: minutes:
seconds: frames. It’s very useful for identifying specific frame in film and video
production.

Note: Only available when under SDI mode.

Please note：The format which shown in Red Box above should be selected to RGB.

2-5. Click Generate Lut button to finish the transform.

3.

USB Loading

 The USB flash disk must be formatted before using to make sure that there

are no other files in the root directory.

 Copy needed files to the root directory of the USB flash drive.

Please note that the system only supports updating one LUT table at a time.

Therefore, only a single file to be loaded can be copied to the USB flash drive. If

it needs to update more LUT tables, please delete other files in USB flash disk

and repeat the above steps.

 Power on the device, insert the corresponding video signal into any video signal

interface, and switch the signal to the corresponding channel to make sure the

device displays normally.

(It doesn’t suggest that update the LUT table when there is no input signal as

the device will enter the power saving mode in such situation.)

 Insert the flash disk into the USB interface on the device and wait for about 5

seconds. It will pop-up prompt box "Load Rec709.cube" after detecting the flash

disk. Operate by using press "MENU", "＜", "＞", "EXIT" on the front of device.

Click "YES" to load, and click "NO" or press "EXIT" to exit.

The device displays a black screen after confirmed the loading, and it will

update the corresponding LUT table back-stage according to the name of the

updated LU T.

30

The device will be restarted automatically after completed. The whole updating

process takes about 6 seconds according to the updated LUT name.

 Please activate and set up the updated LUT table under the menu after restart.

It doesn’t need to be reset if the current updated LUT has been selected

before updating.

Please note it only calibrates the color for Rec709 mode and upload it to the device in the

factory. User1~User3 is grayed out and disabled in the menu. After loading the user LUT

table, the corresponding button will be shown as blue and able to be use, shown as the

following figure.
