Key Concepts
Output Card Calibrations
Brightness
The green, red, and blue brightness parameters determine the black level of the RGB
output signals shown on the corresponding display.
Contrast
The green, red, and blue contrast parameters determine the white level of the RGB
output signals shown on the corresponding display.
Color saturation
The color saturation of an RGB output signal can be adjusted so that colors in the video
windows will match the graphic elements introduced by the Kaleido-X around them
on the corresponding display.
Audio monitoring color
Audio meters can have an indicator that changes color depending on the output
display where audio monitoring of the associated audio level is taking place. The
default color is a shade of blue.
Audio monitoring delay
The audio monitoring delay parameter can be adjusted to optimize the relative timing
of the audio and video signals on the monitor wall display.
DVI keying mode
Depending on your purposes, key material provided through the DVI input can be set
either as a background or as a foreground for the layout shown on the monitor wall.
Input Card Calibrations
Detail enhancement
The purpose of the detail enhancement parameter is to recover sharpness that may
have been lost in the de-interlacing and scaling process.
Dynamic range
The dynamic range parameter determines the color model to be applied: either
full-range RGB (0-255) or video RGB (16-235). Full-range RGB is also called
computer
RGB
; video RGB is also called
studio RGB
.
Aspect ratio
In SD signals, aspect ratio information can be encoded following different standards.
The AFD/WSS parameters determine which standard will be applied by default to the
selected input signal.
NTSC standard
The NTSC and NTSC-J standard are different with regard to their black level. This
parameter determines which standard is to be applied to the selected input signal.
Subtitling/closed captioning
Presence alarms can be configured against up to four preset Teletext (WST) pages for
each input signal. The Teletext page selection parameters determine which pages will
be monitored. The Teletext page set as
Page A
will also be decoded, and its content can
be displayed in a video window. Requires the CC/XDS option (see “Enabling Options”
on page 359).
