Video Monitor Display

The Video Monitor display is a handy confidence monitor so you can see the video that is being received
by SmartScope.
If your input signal is SD, you can select between displaying it in either 4:3 pillarbox or 16:9 from the Set drop
down menu. Any changes made to the Brightness, Contrast or Saturation can be immediately seen in this
view. Note that changing these settings only affects the monitor, not the video signal, so the scopes will not
be affected by any saturation or brightness changes.
It can often be handy to use one monitor as your Video Monitor and another as your scope view. To do this,
use a short cable to connect the SDI loop out from Monitor 1 to the SDI in of Monitor 2.
Set standard definition to display in 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratios.
