Vidikron VL-26/VL-32 Owner’s Operating Manual

Image appears “washed out” 
and/or dark areas appear too 
bright. 

Brightness is set too high. 

Lower the brightness 
setting. 

Black or white dots appear on 
all channels or a specific 
channel.

Antenna or cable TV source 
is connected incorrectly or 
not at all. 

Broadcast signal is weak. 

Check the antenna or cable 
TV connection. 

 

If using an off-air antenna, 
adjust its position or 
location. 

Colors in the image are 
swapped; for example, reds 
appear blue or vice versa. 

The Red/Pr, Green/Y or 
Blue/Pb outputs from the 
source are connected to the 
wrong inputs on the DView. 

Ensure that the source 
outputs are connected to 
the correct DView input. 

RGB-HD images appear 
“noisy.”

Clock  and  Phase  settings 
need adjustment. 

Manually adjust Clock and 
Phase settings, or perform 
an Auto-Adjust (refer to 

PC 

Mode Adjust 

on page 35).

“Out of range” appears 
on-screen. 

The  resolution  and 
frequency of the video card 
in the computer are not 
compatible with the DView.

Select a compatible 
resolution and vertical 
frequency (refer to 

Computer/Video Signal 
Compatibility 

on page 54). 

The image is too large or too 
small.

Image size needs adjusting. 

Adjust the image size (refer 
to 

PC Mode Adjust 

on 

page 35). 

Poor broadcast sound quality.

The sound quality of a 
stereo broadcast may be 
unstable in an area with a 
weak signal. 

Use  the 

MTS/SAP

 button 

on the remote control to 
select mono.
