7” 3G -SDI Monitor w/ Signal Conversion QUICKSTART GUIDE
The MANUAL function allows you to change the values of Red, Green, and Blue (RGB).
This function recalls user dened values settings .The user setting will remain in memory
indenitely and can be erased by using the reset option in the main menu.
A graphical representation of the pixels exposed in your image. The left side of the
graph represents the blacks or shadows, the right side represents the highlights or bright
areas and the middle section is mid-tones. How high the peaks reach represent the
number of pixels in that particular tone. This tool helps you get proper exposure.
A feature that allows you to see what parts of the image are over exposed. It does this
by adding black stripes to the parts that are over exposed.
The DSLR Scaling function will allow users to extend their DSLR camera’s HDMI video
output any option of four – Normal, 3:2, 16:9 or Full Screen – convenience made simple.
This function displays the blanking portion of the incoming signal.
The LCD panel in this display has a native display of 1280 x 800 pixels. A signal of any
other resolution is scaled to t this native resolution. There may be time when it is
desired to view the incoming signal without scaling. Enabling Pixel to Pixel mode turns
off the scaling and displays a 1280 x 800 pixel window of the original image. Each pixel
of the panel displays one pixel of the original image. The user may use the arrow buttons
(buttons 3-6) on the monitor face to move the window left, right, up and down to see the
desired portion of the image.
The VX7c is equipped with Monochrome Peaking features which highlight the desired
focus area in a bright, red outline. The operator adjusts the focus control until the red
indicator outlines on the desired area are razor sharp, indicating optimal focus. For the
best results, be sure the subject is properly exposed.
The False Color feature utilizes a full spectrum of assigned color indicators, ensuring
awless shot exposure. As the camera Iris is adjusted, the subject of the image will
change color based on specic brightness values indicating optimal exposure. See
included chart for color assignments.
As an additional tool associated with the VX7c’s False Color feature, ikan’s exclusive
Adjustable Under Exposure and Over Exposed Waning feature gives the operator full
control of the VX7c False Color brightness values. By setting the preferred IRE
exposure limits, the operator is warned when the image exposure is exceeding or
falling under the preset IRE limit, providing customizable, full image exposure control.
The VX7c offers adjustable upper Clip Guide levels to accurately display overexposed
images in any shooting condition. The operator simply assigns the upper IRE to their
preference and any exposure over the set IRE limit will ash in a vivid purple, indicating
only the over exposed area.
This function displays a side by side comparison of the incoming video signal. Pushing
the F1/4 button one time will enter the mode. Each time the F1/4 button is pushed it
will freeze the current frame on the right hand side of the display while the left continues
to display the live signal. Pressing the exit button will exit the window mode. Use
Window 1 for 16:9 signals and Window 2 for 4:3 signals.
