The 

Proc

menu provides the following video adjustments:

• Gain

– adjust the overall gain of the signal from 0 to 150%.

• Chroma

– adjust the chroma gain of the signal from 0 to 150%.

• Pedestal

– adjust the pedestal level of the /- 5 IRE.

• Hue

– adjust the hue of the /- 180 degrees.

To set a value for any of these parameters, adjust the slider, click the right or left
Arrow button, or type a value into the appropriate field.
