The selection of the 

Video Menu

 or 

PC Menu

 is made automatically based on 

the selected input signal.  The 

Video Menu

 offers additional functions, including 

Picture Mode, Scale and NR (Noise Reduction).
The 

Picture Mode Function

 has four settings:  User, Standard, Movie and Vivid.  

When the Picture Mode is set to Standard, Movie or Vivid, the Brightness, Contrast, 
Hue, Saturation and Sharpness adjustments are set to fixed values in order to 
optimize the appearance of the image.  To change these settings, select User in the 
Picture Mode menu.  Changes made to these settings will be saved to the unit’s 
memory and can be recalled at any time by selecting User in the Picture Mode.
The 

Scale Function 

has five user selections:  Letterbox, Overscan, Panscan, 

Underscan, and Full.  The Scale function is used to alter the Aspect Ratio of the 
output signal in order to achieve a desired format on the display or destination 
device.  The following are the menu selections for the Scale function and their effects:

Letterbox

Remaps the picture content to a letterbox format within the new resolution. Best 
used to remap source content from 4:3 aspect ratio to 16:9.

Overscan

Remaps the picture content larger than the original image in order to reduce the 
black bars at the top and bottom of a 16:9 letterbox source.

Panscan

Remaps the picture content to a smaller size than the output resolution and centers 
the content in the middle of the image.  Best used to remap source content from  
letterbox or 16:9 aspect ratio to 4:3.

Underscan

Remaps the picture content to a smaller size than the output resolution.

Full

Remaps the picture content to full output resolution.  This setting should be used 
with high resolution data to maximize clarity.

The 

NR (Noise Reduction) Function

 has four choices: Low, Middle, High and Off. 

For most applications it is recommend that this setting be left in the Off position.
The 

Color Menu

 allows selection of four color temperature presets:

Warm

Picture has a slightly reddish appearance

Cool

Picture has a slightly bluish appearance

Normal

Picture has a calibrated color temperature

User

User-definable color temperature

The 

Output Menu

 allows user selection of the desired output resolution.  For best 

results, it is usually recommended to set the unit’s output resolution to match the 
native resolution of the connected display.  Please consult your owner’s manual 
in order to determine your display’s native resolution.  Keep in mind that selecting 
an output resolution that is not supported by your display can cause an apparent 
malfunction.
The 

OSD Menu

 allows you to customize the way the On-Screen Display appears 

when it has been accessed.
The 

Info Menu

 contains technical information.  If you have problems with this unit 

and require assistance, a technician may ask you to read information from this 
menu as part of the troubleshooting process.
