Edit the Contrast
Default contrast
Increasing the contrast uses more of the outer colours
of the colour palette i.e. black and white in the
rainbow example.
Reducing the contrast uses less of the outer colours
of the colour palette, and uses more of the central
colours i.e. green and yellow in the rainbow example.
Figure 19: These 6 figures show the effect of increasing and decreasing the auto mode's brightness and
The practical advantage of this is that the user can completely control the appearance of the image without
having to adjust the level and span manually when viewing different scene temperatures.
NOTE: The brightness and contrast can be reset back to the defaults by pressing hot button 4 to
manual mode, and then hot button 4 again back to auto mode.
