Assignable Functions (continued)
SD Aspect Ratio
Toggles between 4:3 and Anamorphic display of Standard Definition source. This function should be set to
match the SD source being viewed. The default setting is 4:3. This function can also be toggled via GPI con-
tact closure or through the SD Aspect setting on the Video Menu.
Full Screen
This function simply stretches any incoming source to fill the entire screen. Unlike the Zoom feature this full
screen stretch does not preserve aspect ratio, but it does keep all of the active video signal present. Though
the full screen mode has many potential uses it was designed primarily for use with rasterizers that generate
a 16:10 or 16:9 aspect 1024x768 output. Enabling Full Screen mode allows the monitor to stretch the image
as intended by the rasterizer.
Pixel Zoom
Once assigned to a function button this feature allows you to toggle the Pixel Zoom feature on/off. When
turned on this feature will generate a positionable and resizable rectangle on screen. The rectangle may be
moved left or right using the H POS (PHASE) rotary knob and up or down using the V POS (CHROMA) rotary
knob. The REF POS (BRIGHT) rotary knob may be used to change the size of the onscreen rectangle. Using
these three rotary knobs you can select any area on screen and then press down on the REF POS rotary
knob to zoom to the selected area. This pixel zoom feature is designed to work with any HD signal formats. A
Flashing Tally light will be activated on your monitor whenever you are in a zoomed mode as a reminder/
warning that the entire incoming signal is not being shown on the monitor. To exit the zoomed mode simply
press down on the REF POS rotary knob once more. To exit the Pixel Zoom feature entirely simply press the
function button assigned to this feature once more.
LUM Coloring
This function generates an artificial luminance map of the incoming source that can be particularly useful in
identifying overexposed areas in any given shot. An onscreen scale helps indicate what artificial color corre-
sponds to what luminance level. The scale will follow the selected Waveform Scale set in the Scopes & VU
Meters Profile 1: you can choose from IRE, Digital Levels, or Voltage. In its default configuration the LUM
Coloring feature will highlight all levels above 100IRE as white and all levels below 0 IRE as black. In default
mode levels between 0 and 100
IRE will be color coded. However,
you can change the range of the-
se color coded regions to any
preferred setting by using the
monitor’s rotary knobs. The H
POS rotary knob will adjust the
lower limit of the lower color cod-
ed region. The V POS rotary
knob will adjust the upper limit of
the lower color coded region. The
Ref Pos rotary knob will adjust
the lower limit of the upper color
coded region. The F Stop Rotary
knob will adjust the upper limit of
the upper color coded region.
These color coded ranges are
retained in memory so you can
exit and reenter LUM Coloring
Mode without having to reset
your desired threshold levels.
