Illuminator Board Calibration

1. Turn on the system and log on as CPS. Adjust the Monitor contrast and brightness
settings to give a normal-appearing display.
Make sure that all options in the Adjust System are set to Normal.
From the main menu select System Operations, then Calibration and Setup,
then Image Board.
NOTE: The Illuminator Board Calibration Program can also be run
from the DOS prompt as MCAL.
2. At the Camera Type window, select RGB. (RGB is normally used for the live
portrait camera input, Composite (i.e., NTSC) for input from the optional still video
camera or copy stand.)
3. The program will next ask you to aim the camera at the Color Calibration Card, an
8-1/2" x 11" card containing white, black, tan and gray rectangles.
Place the card in front of the camera (or if using a still video player, refer to its
operating instructions), so that the card is centered in the picture and with the black
and white rectangles on top.
