the XY-table is aligned to the front edge of your desk or even a little further
back. Also, when pushed to the leftmost or rightmost position, the edges of

8 Getting familiar with your new Patriot
Titan II 22 HD
You have already learned how to position Patriot Titan II 22 HD on your
desk and you have connected Patriot Titan II 22 HD to the power supply.
You can slightly tilt the display so that you can comfortably view the
screen. Do not tilt too much; do not try to exceed the stopper position.
Now, switch on Patriot Titan II 22 HD and use it for the first time.
The control panel is mounted right below the screen. The power
button is the leftmost one. A short press for about a second on the
power button will switch on Patriot Titan II 22 HD. As soon as the lights
turn on, you may release the power button. The Display may show a
message “Invalid video mode”, after a few seconds Patriot Titan II 22 HD
shows a magnified image.
You can switch Patriot Titan II 22 HD off by pressing the power button
for more than a second. Thus, touching this button accidentally will have
no effect. Practice switching on and off Patriot Titan II 22 HD for a few
times then leave it switched on to proceed.
Place a document on the XY-table. Please use something colored, like a
brochure or magazine with text and images.
You can align a document horizontally by moving it against the silver rim
at the back end of the XY-table. Thus you will track a line when moving
the XY-table left and right.
The XY-table provides a brake that can fix the table. At the front edge,
you find the brake lever. Put it in the leftmost position and you can
move the XY-table freely in all directions. In the middle position, you can
move the XY-table left and right only and the up down position is fixed.
In the rightmost position the table is fixed in all directions.
Now, align your document against the back rim and position the brake
lever in the leftmost position.

WARNING: Avoid having fingers or (pieces of) clothes jammed into
the mechanism of the XY-table underneath the reading platform. Please
put your hands on top of or on the front side of the reading platform. Do
not reach underneath the sides or underneath the rear side of the
reading table.
Let us try the buttons on the control panel now. We have already
learned, the power on button is the leftmost button.
In the middle of the control panel, there is a round knob. This is the
zoom knob which controls magnification. Turning this knob clockwise
will increase magnification while turning it counter clockwise will
decrease magnification. Turn the zoom knob counter clockwise to the
end position to obtain minimum magnification.
The minimum zoom level is not intended for reading; however it gives
you a better overview on the document structure. Thus you can easily
find the position you want to view at higher magnifications.
Now, press the picture button. The picture button is located to the right
of the zoom knob. Pressing this button will set Patriot Titan II 22 HD to
real color or picture mode. This mode is ideal for viewing images and it
also serves for reading bad print and for writing or filling in forms. It
provides all natural colors in all shades.
So move the XY-table until you see one of the images of your document.
If the image is too small, increase magnification by turning the zoom
knob clockwise. If you got lost and do not know where you are on the
document, decrease magnification, move the XY-table and increase
again.
Patriot Titan II 22 HD will remember the last setting even after power off.
You already know a lot about Patriot Titan II 22 HD now, however let us
read some text.
Move the XY-table to a position where you see some text on the display.
Now press the text button. The text button is the rightmost button on
the control panel. The image will be displayed in high contrast now and
in two false colors only.

Getting familiar with your new Patriot Titan II 22 HD 12
If you press the text button again, foreground color and background
color will be reversed. Press this button more times to change the
colors, reverse them and change colors again. Press this button a few
times to see the effect, also switch between text mode and picture mode
to see the difference. In text mode, letters are much clearer and brighter
with higher contrast whereas in picture mode you see all colors and
shades of gray.
You do not like the colors shown in text mode? No problem! Let us
change them. You have a selection of four false color combinations and
with reversing foreground and background you will have 8 different color
options. Try out by pressing the text button. This is the rightmost button
on the control panel. Each time you press it, the colors will change. After
you went through all 8 options it will start over again.
The available false colors are black-white, black-yellow, black-green and
blue-yellow.
Select the colors you prefer with the text button and press the text
button again for reversing foreground and background until you find the
option you prefer.
Note: Patriot Titan II 22 HD remembers the color settings you made. So
if you switch between Text mode and Picture mode and come back to
Text mode, you find the previous colors there. Patriot Titan II 22 HD will
even remember your last settings when you switch it off.
Now that you found your preferred color settings in text mode, let us try
to read some more problematic text with low contrast or faint print. In
most cases, Patriot Titan II 22 HD automatic image control will present a
good quality magnified image of your document. This is easy with black
characters on bright white paper. However sometimes documents are of
low quality like colored text on colored background or bad copies with
faint print on gray paper. In those cases we make use of the Image
Optimizer button. This is the second button from the left, directly left to
the zoom knob. The image optimizer button selects one of five levels of
optimization. So if you do not get a good quality representation on
Patriot Titan II 22 HD display, simply press this button several times until
you get the best result.

Getting familiar with your new Patriot Titan II 22 HD 13
This button works in Picture mode as well as in Text mode.
Note: You will often find the previous setting was the best one, so the
trick to get one step back is by pressing the button four more times.
Patriot Titan II 22 HD has an automatic auto-focus. That means, no
matter how thick a book or how curved a page, Patriot Titan II 22 HD
will always focus on the part displayed and thus always present a
sharp image on the display.
We hope you will enjoy your new CCTV.
