General > Save Con fi guration Saves the current con fi guration of the Scaler (Input format, Output format, etc). These settings are restored at power-up. Changes can be made to the current settings and then saved using the Restore Default Con fi gurations function (below).
15 Patterns > Color Bars Displays the Color Bar pattern using the built-in pattern generator . Patterns > Cross Hatch Displays the Hatch Pattern using the built-in pattern generator .
16 MENU FUNCTIONS Output > Output Format Selects the Output resolution. See page 27 for supported output timings. Output > Link Con fi guration Dual Link con fi guration: Single Link, Dual Link YCbCr , or Dual Link RGB.
17 Output > Genlock Reference The video signal can be synced (“genlocked”) to an external clock or video input using the Reference In connector . In order to use Genlock, the external clock must be a multiple of four (4) of the source timing. Output > Language Localizes the On-Screen Menu to either English or French.
18 MENU FUNCTIONS Output > Gamma Correction Allows adjustment of the Gamma coef fi cient, in addition to changing to the sRGB color space or other custom color tables. Input > Video Format Selects the input video format. By default, this option is set to Auto-Detect.
19 MENU FUNCTIONS Input > Input Graphic Format Selects the input graphic format. This should only be used if using a non- standard timing which the DVI to HDSDI Pro Scaler does not recognize. Input > Clean Aperture Controls the zoom on the input signal.
20 MENU FUNCTIONS Input > Remote Channel Changes the IR channel of the DVI to HDSDI Pro Scaler . The IR channel range is 0 - 3. NOTE: The IR channel can only be changed when using the Master Menu. Picture > Image Colour Adjusts the color levels on the output signal.
21 MENU FUNCTIONS Picture > Detail Enhancement Adjusts the detail / sharpness of the image. The noise threshold can also be changed. Picture > Noise Reduction Digitally reduces noise in the image.
22 MENU FUNCTIONS Picture > Motion Threshold Sets the intra-frame motion detection threshold for the de-interlacer . Video artifacts are sometimes introduced when creating a progressive frame from interlaced frames. Use this function to set the motion threshold used by the motion-detection algorithm when de-interlacing.
23 MENU FUNCTIONS Layout > Size and Position Adjusts both the vertical and horizontal size and position of the output signal. Aspect > Full Screen Stretches the output signal to fi t the entire screen.
24 MENU FUNCTIONS Aspect > Letter / Pillar Box Sets the aspect ratio on the output signal to fi t the letter box or pillar box format. Aspect > Panoramic Panoramic Zoom feature.
