INSTALLATION
Picture quality adjustments (also known as "Front Panel Controls") are the controls that change different
parameters of the image such as the amount of color, black level, etc. While these adjustments can be set to suit
the needs of the user, there is a way to set these properly. This section will describe what each function does and
how to adjust them properly.
To access the picture quality adjustments, press MENU, highlight the active source (indicated by the arrow) and
press ENTER. The picture quality sub-menu will then appear (see above).
To make an adjustment to a particular function, highlight the function with the up or down arrow buttons and press
ENTER. Once the function is on-screen (i.e. brightness), pressing the UP arrow button on the remote or front
panel will increase the value of that function; pressing the DOWN arrow on the remote or front panel will decrease
the value of that function.
While each of the picture quality adjustments can be set to suit the needs of the user, there is a 'proper' way to set
the adjustments. For setting TINT and COLOR, please refer to the color bar test pattern below.
NOTE: Runco recommends that a BLUE FILTER be used so only the blue color bars can be seen. Blue filters are
provided with the Video Essentials or AVIA test DVDs, or can be purchased from the Imaging Science Foundation
(www.imagingscience.com).
