Image Transformation Settings
These settings, accessed by selecting the Image Menu, alter the appearance of
live images. (Some of these settings also affect frozen or recalled images.) At any
time, the values assigned to these twelve transformation settings can be saved as
a user-named Preset. When recalling a preset, all transformation settings will revert
to these assigned values.

recorded video, adjusting the brightness means controlling digital gain.

Adaptive Noise Reduction
(ANR) ON or OFF. ANR works to reduce
the amount of noise (which appears as a grainy image) visible when the probe is
positioned in a dark area. The ANR setting (ON or OFF) applies only to live video. ANR
is automatically applied to reduce noise in all frozen and saved images, even when
the ANR setting is set to OFF. When turned ON,
appears at the top of the display.
Note:
Keep the probe still when capturing an image. Noise increases with probe
movement.
