Figure 3-23Adjusting Input Levels Using the Peak Detector (RED EXAMPLE
1. Display a 16-level grayscale test pattern from the desired external source, and select the Peak Detector
check box.
NOTE: The "Peak Detector" initially renders the grayscale as a uniform gray field before adjustment.
2. Display 1 primary color.
NOTE: Selecting Auto Color Enable ensures the correct color is displayed for each setting.
3. For the current color, adjust its corresponding "Blacklevel" slidebar just until a single band of black
appears at one edge of the screen. This band represents the first band of the grayscale pattern, which should
be 100% black. Do not adjust too far.
4. With the same color still active, adjust its corresponding "Input Drive" slidebar just until a single band of
color appears at the opposite edge of the screen. This band represents the last band of the grayscale pattern,
which should be 100% white (or the current color, if a certain color is enabled). Do not adjust too far.
5. It may be advantageous to go back and check the black band. Adjust the blacklevel slidebar if necessary.
NOTE: Re-adjusting blacklevels at this point affects the gain; only re-adjust if absolutely necessary.
6. Repeat Steps 3-5 with the other 2 remaining primary colors. When each primary color shows one
optimized black band and white (or colored) band, the input levels for this source are correctly set. Upon
exiting the Input Levels menu, the Peak Detector check box is cleared.
