Notes
• Proper White Shading adjustment cannot be obtained if pattern non-uniformity, brightness, lens iris, and zoom
conditions are not correct.
• Use a full-white pattern having uniform brightness for the White Shading adjustment.
• If a full-white pattern having uniform brightness is not available, do not perform the G-channel White Shading
adjustment, but perform adjustment in the way of matching the R-channel waveform and the B-channel waveform
with the G-channel waveform.
