Using PIP as a Confidence Monitor

As the PIP is primarily designed to be used at as a confidence monitor – at 100% size for 1080- or
720-line content, including DCI 2K content – many of the Image Adjustments available for the main
input are also available for use within the PIP. Refer to
Options on page 31
further information on these adjustments.
The following adjustments are available within the PIP. None are enabled by default.
Use Video Levels (16–235)
If monitoring a video signal output from a video capture card such as an AJA Kona or Blackmagic
Design Decklink, this option should usually be enabled as video levels are typically used in video
post-production workflows.

Overscan Within PIP

Use this option if you wish to see how your video output will be displayed on a consumer television.
This is especially useful when ensuring that the margins for lower third graphics are correct and
nothing will be cut off on a consumer television.

Digital Cinema Options

If you display a 2048 × 1080 signal as a PIP, you can instruct the monitor to display either the full DCI
container or crop the PIP to either the 1.85:1 or 2.39:1 aspect ratio. If cropping to an aspect ratio, the
shape of the PIP will change to the chosen aspect ratio. Black bars will not be visible at the edges of
the PIP.
