 4.4.2 Black/White Calibration

This part can be used for fixing the colors of your picture manually. If you want to set the level of 

darkness of your picture, click on the black pixel and then on a black point in your picture which you 
define as being the 'perfect' black. The picture will then take over the level of blackness you 

indicated. If you want to fix the lighter parts of your picture, click on the white pixel box, then on 
the white part of your picture which you define to be the 'perfect' white. All white parts will adjust to 

that level of whiteness. For example: on the picture below, after clicking the white pixel box, the 
white in the upper part of the ID number was selected to be the perfect whiteness. All light parts will 

adjust to this level of whiteness.

 4.4.3  Contrast/Luminosity

The 'Contrast' bar is used for fixing the contrast of your picture (dark – light).

 4.4.4 Delete

In the 'Delete' part you have 4 buttons and 1 check box. This part is used for deleting (empty, 
unnecessary, …) parts of your picture. 

If you want to delete parts of your picture, first click on the 'Delete' button next to the check box. 

This way you activate the Delete mode (check white field on top). Then select the part of your 
picture you would like to delete, click again so that the selection area turns yellow or green, then hit 

the delete button on your keyboard. Now you have deleted the zone you selected. 

If you click on the 'Auto Cel' button, the system detects the empty spaces in the picture and selects 
them. Then you can hit the delete button on your keyboard to delete these spaces.

The 'Auto Res' button gives you the possibility to choose how many lines you would like to keep after 

each time indicating line (see picture below). This gives you the possibility to scroll faster in the 
picture.
