WORKING WITH TRANSPARENCIES
The working surface of the Visualizer
(#9)
has a special crystalline white
color, which is especially designed for perfect reproduction of transparencies.
Even if you own an optional light box, it is
recommended to use the top
light and the chrystalline white working surface for transparencies
,
because the color reproduction is better. Another advantage is that the
Synchronized Lightfield shows the pickup-area of the built-in camera.
However a bottom light (lightbox) may be better in the following situations:
- If the transparency is very dark
- If the transparency is very wavy and causes reflections
- If the room light causes reflections on a transparency

WHITE BALANCE ADJUSTMENT
IMPORTANT
Each time the lighting condition changes, the Visualizer's camera must readjust its white balance, in order to
optimize the color reproduction. The lighting condition (color temperature) changes, for example, if you switch
between the Visualizer's light and an external lightbox (bottom light) or if you turn the room light on or off.
The standard settings of the Visualizer are the following:
When the Visualizer's light is switched on: fixed white balance.
When the Visualizer's light is switched off: "auto-tracking" white balance.
So normally there is no need for a manual white balance adjustment. However, if the colors on your screen still
appear to be wrong, you can manually adjust the (one-push) white balance:
Preparing the manual white balance adjustment:
Top light: Zoom in on a white object (for example a white sheet of paper) until there is only
white on the screen.
Lightbox with transparencies : Turn off the light of the Visualizer with the LIGHT key
(#18)
and switch on the
lightbox. Remove everything from the working surface and zoom to the smallest
picture size until there is only white on the screen. .
Lightbox with x-rays: Turn off the light of the Visualizer with the LIGHT key
(#18)
and switch on the
lightbox. Place an x-ray on the working surface and zoom out until the whole x-ray
is picked up.
White balance (in the on-screen menu):
1. Press the menu key
(#19)
for one second, until you see the menu on your screen.
2. Select "Color Settings" with the select keys
(#22)
3. Follow the instructions on your screen. If you need help in the on-screen menu press the HELP-key
(#21)
When the white balance adjustment is finished successfully, the message "WHITE OK" appears after a few
seconds. The new white balance is stored automatically and is preserved even if the power supply
is interrupted.
Please note: False colors can also be due to wrong color settings of your projector or monitor. It is recommended
that you first adjust the white balance of the Visualizer and if the results are still not satisfactory, check your monitor
or projector.
TIP: If the white balance function is required very often, you can assign this function to one of the Preset keys
(#14,
see page 10)
. Then you only have to press the assigned Preset key for adjusting the white balance.
