False color is used for setting the correct exposure level or ISO
setting on your camera. It is important to use false color when
you are shooting in low light and direct light situations because
if your shot is severely under/overexposed you may not have to
re-shoot an entire scene of your video. This is how you use this
feature.
To activate False Color press ME U scroll to the Advanced Tab
and turn the False Color slider to the O position hit ME U
again to activate it. To deactivate it follow the reverse
procedure. If you have a HD089BV2 or HD089CV2 you can
assign a hotkey to this feature under the setup tab.
Completely underexposed or completely pitch black objects will
be totally white (0-2 IRE).
The very dark shadows, black colored objects and barely visible
objects in shadows will be Blue & Light Blue (2-20 IRE).
Lighter shadows & dark colors such as a dark grey or a shadow
on the side of a face or object will show up as Dark Grey &
Bright Purple (21-48 IRE)
.
The object of your video such as an object or persons face
should be, Medium Grey, Green & Light Grey (48-78 IRE).
Heavily lit areas ones where it appears to be in direct contact
with light will display as Dark Yellow & Yellow (78-84 IRE)
Overexposed areas ones which will appear white or near white
in your video will display as Orange & Red (85-108 IRE)

User presets are a useful tool when you are shooting with multiple camera rigs and want to use the
same monitor. There are 3 user presets per input for a total of up to 15 user defined presets. What
you can do with each preset is set up the correct color and aspect ratio in the preset. So next
time you use that camera with the monitor all you need to do is choose the preset and you are
ready to go. Each preset will remember all of the settings inputted into the Picture tab and the
image adjust tabs of the monitor.

The Aspect Guides and Screen Markers Features will assist you in correctly framing your shot.
Activating an Aspect Guide or Screen marker will display a rectangle box representing a specific
aspect ratio. For example if you are filming in 4:3 and you will be editing the video in post
production to 16:9 the aspect guides will show you if you will be cutting off the top of someone’s
head in the video. Within the aspect guides you have several options for line style and % safe.
Choosing a line style will allow you to select between a rectangle line black or partially grey bars in
the inactive area. % Safe will allow you to make the aspect area smaller in 5% increments which will
give you a safe area for the shot.
To activate a preset scroll to the Guides tab and select which screen marker you want to use. To
deactivate it follow the reverse procedure. If you have a HD089BV2 or HD089CV2 you can assign a
hotkey to this feature under the setup tab.
