Using Merlin Color Select (Unit With Color Select Only) - ENHANCED VISION Merlin User Manual

Merlin with Color Select
Merlin with Color Select was designed to provide optimum visibility for
people with certain visual conditions by offering an expanded range of
choices in both text and background colors. S-video technology, which has
been incorporated into Merlin, provides you with higher resolution images
and brighter vivid colors that you can take advantage of while using in color
select or full-color mode.
The standard Merlin has four viewing modes: vivid color, black and white,
high contrast negative and positive. The Merlin with Color Select provides up
to five additional viewing modes. Select from 28 color combinations to best
fit your eye condition. Three modes have been pre-programmed for ease of
use, but all five Color Select viewing modes can be programmed to display
the color combinations that work best for you.
This section will describe:
• The Color Select modes that come pre-programmed
• How to program your Merlin to display the two additional Color Select
modes
• How to change the standard Color Select modes programmed at the factory
if needed.
