Check Field
Use the check field modes for monitor calibration or to analyze individual color components of an image. In
Monochrome mode, all color is disabled and only a grayscale image is shown. In Blue, Green, and Red check field
modes, only the selected color will be shown.
Use the following procedure when calibrating the monitor to SMPTE color bars with the following procedure:
1.
Allow the monitor to warm up for at least 5-10 minutes.
2.
Display SMPTE split-field color bars on the monitor using an external source.
3.
Enable Monochrome mode.
4.
Locate the pluge pattern (super black, black, and gray bars) at the lower-right corner of the screen. Adjust the Brightness knob until
there is no visible difference between the super black and black bars, but the gray bar is still visible.
5.
Adjust the Contrast knob until an even grayscale appears along the top bars.
6.
Disable Monochrome mode.
7.
Enable Blue Check Field mode and adjust the Color knob so that the outermost bars (white and blue) appear to match in brightness.
8.
Composite NTSC only: Adjust the Tint knob until the third bar from the left (cyan) and the third bar from the right (magenta) appear to
match in brightness.
9.
Disable Blue Check Field mode.

Aspect Ratio Settings
Use to switch between Full Screen, 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios.
As the V-LCD70P-HDMI monitor has a native resolution of 800 x 480 RGB pixels, incoming images are automatically
scaled to fit the screen:
•
In Full Screen, images are scaled to fill the entire 15x9 screen.
•
In 4:3 mode, images are scaled to fill the maximum 4:3 portion of the screen (640 x 480), with black bars filling the
remainder of the screen.
•
In 16:9 mode, images are scaled to fill the maximum 16:9 portion of the screen (800 x 450), with black bars filling
the remainder of the screen.
Note: The aspect ratio setting is ignored when Pixel-to-Pixel mode is enabled.
