2-5-1. HIGH Mode of INPUT-A

Connect the10-step signal to the INPUT-A connector and
measure the chromaticities at each brightness.
If chromaticities are different at each brightness, perform
the following adjustment.
1. Input the 100 IRE flat field signal to the INPUT-A
connector.
2. Measure the chromaticity (x, y).
3. Input the 80 IRE flat field signal.
4. Adjust the GAIN R and GAIN B in the HIGH mode of
W/B until the chromaticity (x, y) that is measured at
step 2 is obtained.
5. Input the 30 IRE flat field signal.
6. Adjust the BIAS R and BIAS B in the HIGH mode of
W/B until the chromaticity (x, y) that is measured at
step 2 is obtained.
7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 until the chromaticity (x ± 0.002, y
± 0.004) with reference to the chromaticity (x, y) that
is measured at step 2 is obtained.
8. Press the MEMORY key and save the adjustment
value.

2-5-2. LOW Mode of INPUT-A

1. Input the 80 IRE flat field signal to the INPUT-A
connector.
VPL-ES1
2. In the LOW mode of W/B, adjust the GAIN R for +15
higher than the value in the HIGH mode, adjust the
GAIN G for _25 lower than the value in the HIGH
mode and adjust GAIN B that is the same as the value
in the HIGH mode.
3. Measure the chromaticity (x, y).
4. Input the 30 IRE flat field signal.
5. Adjust the BIAS R and BIAS B in the LOW mode of
W/B until the chromaticity (x, y) that is measured at
step 3 is obtained.
6. Input the 80 IRE flat field signal.
7. Adjust the GAIN R and GAIN B in the LOW mode of
W/B until the chromaticity (x, y) that is measured at
step 3 is obtained.
8. Repeat steps 4 to 7 until the chromaticity (x ± 0.002, y
± 0.004) with reference to the chromaticity (x, y) that
is measured at step 3 is obtained.
9. Press the MEMORY key and save the adjustment
value.

2-5-3. HIGH Mode of VIDEO

1. Input the NTSC or PAL video signal to the input
connector.
2. In the HIGH mode of W/B, adjust the GAIN R for
_20 lower than the value in the INPUT-A HIGH
mode, adjust the GAIN G for _35 lower than the value
in the INPUT-A HIGH mode and adjust GAIN B that
is the _20 lower than the value in the INPUT-A HIGH
mode.
3. Adjust BIAS G for _5 lower than the value in the
INPUT-A HIGH mode, adjust the BIAS R and BIAS
B for the same value as those of the INPUT-A HIGH
mode.
4. Press the MEMORY key and save the adjustment
value.

2-5-4. LOW Mode of VIDEO

1. Input the NTSC or PAL video signal to the input
connector.
2. In the LOW mode of W/B, adjust the GAIN R for _20
lower than the value in the INPUT-A LOW mode,
adjust the GAIN G for _35 lower than the value in the
INPUT-A LOW mode and adjust GAIN B that is the
_20 lower than the value in the INPUT-A LOW mode.
3. Adjust BIAS G for _5 lower than the value in the
INPUT-A LOW mode, adjust the BIAS R and BIAS B
for the same value as those of the INPUT-A HIGH
mode.
4. Press the MEMORY key and save the adjustment
value.
