Section 1: Getting Started
Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome!
The Cinemage product family revolutionizes critical monitoring for digital cinema acquisition,
post production and DI by combining Cine-tal’s leading edge IDS (Intelligent Display Server)
technology and calibrated full resolution LCD display. Cinemage provides quantitative video
analysis, colour pre-visualization, video signal quality assurance, real-time collaboration
between acquisition and post production, and an integrated OmniTek™ Waveform Monitor and
Vectorscope. With Cinemage you can conduct both critical visual analysis and digital
quantitative analysis of your HD SDI or HD SDI Dual Link signal in either YCbCr or RGB, linear
or logarithmic, at 8 or 10 bits.
IDS Technology is a joint technology development between Cine-tal and OmniTek. IDS
provides image processing, signal routing, frame stores, and colour manipulation (3D LUT’s)
and test and measurement all in a network appliance configuration. Internal to IDS is a powerful
image processor that generates real-time data about the HD video stream. This data is used to
generate waveforms, vectorscopes, gamut information and status of the incoming video signal.
IDS also provides for display calibration and profiling as well as input signal colour grading for
pre-visualization. All data and operations can be performed over a LAN, WAN or wireless
network with any web-enabled device.
How to use this guide

cleaners will leave streak marks on the glass, and compressed air needs to
be used for the LCD panel as not to damage it.
8) After cleaning, replace the front bezel and replace all the screws.
Instructions on how to remove the front bezel on Cinemage B Series Monitors:
1) With the monitor standing upright, locate the 4 screws around the front bezel
holding the glass to the main unit.
2) If you are facing the front of the unit, there are two screws on both the left and
right hand sides.
3) Carefully remove the front bezel by pulling toward yourself.
4) You can now clean between the glass and the LCD panel. It is recommended
that when cleaning inside the monitor to use compressed air. Many glass
cleaners will leave streak marks on the glass, and compressed air needs to be
used for the LCD panel as not to damage it.
Turning On the Cinemage and Cinemage B Series monitors:
To turn the system on, simply depress the power toggle switch on the rear of the
system.
**Note: To protect the system from erratic power outages the system requires a 10
second wait period between power down and immediate power up.

Chapter 2: Menu Overview
In reading this section note that location of menu options may change over product
revisions. Furthermore, available menu choices will vary depending on model number
and installed options. Functions that are dependent on installed options are marked as
[Option]. The Cinemage and Cinemage B Series monitors run off of the same menu
systems. If there is a discrepancy in functionality or actual menu navigation it will be
noted in the appropriate section of the manual.
Note: Cinemage and Cinemage B Series monitors will accept and display SD and 2K
video signals, but with slightly limited functionality. Some of the video processing
features available in HD Mode will not function in SD mode, such as the Waveform and
Vectorscope and the Framestore. The Menu structure for SD operations is identical to
HD operations, with the exception of the non-operational options’ buttons being hidden.
External Menu Control
The menu system can be controlled via an external USB keyboard or keypad or with the
Cinemage Remote Control Panel. The buttons on the front of your Cinemage
correspond with the 1-6 buttons of a keyboard, and the trackball can be controlled using
the up, down, left, and right keys of the USB keyboard. There are also multiplier
commands available for greater control of the trackball. The multiplier keys are as
follows:
Shift + Arrow = 10x
Alt + Shift + Arrow = 100x
Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Arrow = 1000x
When using a USB mouse with either the Cinemage or Cinemage B Series monitors,
the mouse serves the same functionality as the trackball in addition to navigating the
menus without having to press the 6 menu buttons. Using the wheel on the USB mouse
(if present) with enable you to go forward or backward in the cyclical menus that appear
in the Cinemage and Cinemage B Series monitors.
Main Menu
After the system performs a power up self test the following menu will appear at the
bottom 60 lines of the LCD display. These 60 lines are not part of the active pixel area
of a 1920x1080 signal.
Main Menu
Each menu item corresponds to one of six buttons found directly underneath each
menu. The seventh menu item (far right menu) is controlled by the trackball.
