    Height: Select Height from the Input Position menu to change the projected image 
    height. Press  to increase the height; press   to decrease it.
    Overscan/Overscan Mode: Overscan pushes the outside edge of the active picture 
    area of the video signal out beyond the edge of the display area. 
    Some television programs are produced based on the assumption that older television 
    sets may not display the outer edges of the broadcast picture area. Overscan effectively 
    trims away these inactive, outer edges and enlarges the remaining portion of the image to 
    fill the display area.
    For HDTV, DVDs and other video sources, Overscan is generally not necessary or 
    desirable.
    This control defines the amount of overscan applied to the image. The range is from 
    0 to 20. There are two overscan modes: 
    Crop mode, each increment adds a mask at the top, bottom, left and right edges of 
    the source image equal to 0.5% of the displayed horizontal resolution (1% total). A 
    setting of 10, for example, crops the image 5% on all sides or 10% total.
    Zoom mode, each increment adds a factor to the scaling of the source image so 
    that the vertical and horizontal resolutions are 100% plus 1% increments of the size 
    determined by the aspect ratio function. A setting of 10, for example, zooms in on the 
    image 5% on all sides or 10% total.
    Figure 4-6 illustrates the effect of each overscan mode setting.

    Phase (RGB, Component or SCART sources): This control adjusts the phase of the 
    pixel sampling clock relative to the incoming signal. Adjust the phase when an RGB, 
    Component or SCART image still shows shimmer or “noise” after Tracking has been 
    optimized. 
    For best results, use a good test pattern such as a smooth gray consisting of a clear 
    pattern of black and white pixels, or a similar “half on, half off” graphic image. Adjust the 
    slidebar until the image stabilizes and each pixel is clearly defined. You may notice that 
    you can stabilize the image at more than one point. Use either setting in such cases. 
    Tracking (RGB, Component or SCART sources): Tracking determines the frequency 
    of the pixel sampling clock, indicated by the number of incoming pixels per line, so that all 
    pixels generated by a particular source are sampled. 
    Steady flickering or several soft vertical stripes or bands across the entire image indicates 
    poor pixel tracking. Proper pixel tracking helps ensure that the image quality is consistent 
    across the screen, that aspect ratio is maintained and that pixel phase (see above) can be 
    optimized. 
    Memory PresetsFor each input, the DHD Controller lets you save image quality settings as presets that you 
    can recall at a later time. You can create up to four presets per input and display mode 
    (resolution and frame rate). 
    The DHD Controller stores the following display modes in each memory preset:
    
    
    
    
     720p/24 Hz
     720p/25 Hz

    Calibration Use the Calibration menu to perform advanced picture quality adjustments. This menu 
    should be used by ISF-certified technicians only. 
    To recall the ISF Night or ISF Day settings, select “ISF Night” or “ISF Day” from the 
    Memory Presets menu (see page 38) or use the corresponding remote control buttons. 
    Display Color - Common Settings: Use the Display Color - Common Settings menu to 
    adjust the color balance at the DHD Controller output. These settings are saved 
    independently for each input and display mode.
    Use the Gain controls to correct color imbalances in the bright areas of the 
    image. A good way to do this is to use a test pattern consisting mostly of solid white 
    areas, such as an 80 IRE “window” pattern. If the white areas contain traces of red (Pr), 
    green (Y) or blue (Pr), decrease the Gain for that color.
    set: Use the Offset controls to correct color imbalances in the dark areas of the 
    image. A good way to do this is to use a test pattern consisting mostly of dark gray 
    areas, such as a 30 IRE “window” pattern. If the gray areas contain traces of red (Pr), 
    green (Y) or blue (Pr), decrease the Offset for that color.
     Gamma: Select Gamma from the Display Color - Common Settings menu to choose a 
    de-gamma curve. Used correctly, the Gamma control can improve contrast while 
    maintaining good details for blacks and whites. If excess ambient light washes out the 
    image and it becomes difficult or impossible to see details in dark areas, lower the 
    gamma setting to compensate. This improves contrast while maintaining good details 
    for blacks. Conversely, if the image is washed out and unnatural, with excessive detail 
    in black areas, increase the setting. 
    Mode: With the V-50HD/V-63HD, two Gamma adjustment modes are available: 
    Simple or Advanced. The two modes are mutually exclusive; when you select the 
    Simple mode, the Advanced selection in the Gamma menu is grayed out. Likewise, 
    when you select Advanced, the Simple selection is grayed out.
    Simple: Use the Simple Gamma control to perform gamma correction at the display 
    according to a simple power law gamma function. The value chosen here 
    corresponds to the power variable in this equation:
    Output = Input
    Power
    The DHD Controller applies this gamma curve to all three primary color channels 
    (red, green and blue). 
    Advanced: To select a custom gamma curve, select Mode from the Gamma menu 
    and set it to Advanced. Then, select Advanced from the Gamma menu to select one 
    of up to 20 pre-programmed gamma tables. Custom gamma tables provide the 
    ability to perform complex, non-linear gamma correction on each primary color 
    channel independently of the others.

     Color Temp: Select Color Temp from the Display Color - Common Settings menu to 
    adjust the color temperature. Color temperature establishes the “color of gray” by 
    adjusting the 75% white point to various color points. 
    What are “color points?”A “color point” is an x/y coordinate pair that defines a 
    color’s location on the standard CIE chromaticity graph, shown in Figure 4-7. (CIE 
    stands for “Commission Internationale de l’Éclairage” (International Commission on 
    Illumination), the organization responsible for color measurement and management 
    standards.)
    Figure 4-7. CIE 1931 Chromaticity Diagram
    Simple: Select Simple mode from the Color Temp menu to choose one of five color 
    temperature presets: 3200K, 5500K, 6500K, 7500K and 9300K. The default setting, 
    6500K, is appropriate for most situations. Higher settings produce a “bluer” picture; 
    lower ones impart a reddish hue to the image. 
    Table 4-2 lists the x- and y-coordinates for each color temperature preset in 
    “Simple” mode.

    Display Color - Panel Settings: These settings are also saved independently for each 
    input and display mode.
     Panel Brightness: The Panel Brightness control changes the apparent brightness of 
    the displayed image. Its effect is similar to that of a lamp intensity control on a projector. 
    Use a higher setting for rooms with a lot of ambient light. Use a lower setting for more 
    “theater-like” viewing conditions (little or no ambient light). 
     Power Mode: Select Power Mode from the Display Color - Panel Settings menu to set 
    the power consumption threshold for the panel: High, Normal or Eco. The default 
    setting is High. 
    Input Image: The Input Image controls are functionally similar to those in the Picture 
    menu (refer to page 32), but are accessible only by entering the Calibration menu 
    passcode. 
    Input Color: The Input Color controls are similar to those in the Display Color menu (see 
    above), but adjust the color balance of the incoming signal. These settings are also saved 
    independently for each input and display mode.
    set (HD1, HD2 and Component/SCART inputs only): These controls 
    operate similarly to those in the Display Color - Common Settings menu (described 
    on page 41), but affect the Y, Pb and Pr signal components rather than the red, green 
    and blue channels. 
    use the Chroma Delay control to correct a mis-aligned image from a 
    composite video source. Chroma delay in an image causes color shifts to occur to the 
    left of the vertical edge transitions, producing artificial shadows or a “halo” effect. If 
    necessary, adjust this setting to eliminate them. 
    se Filter: To apply noise filtering to the input signal, select Noise Filter from the 
    Input Color menu. The Noise Filter is useful for clearing up noisy images from 480i 
    video sources. 
    Use the left- or right-arrow buttons to select the desired amount of noise reduction, 
    keeping in mind that higher settings (which reduce high frequencies) may also “soften” 
    the image.

    7500K 0.299 0.315
    9300K 0.284 0.298
    To prolong the life of the display, set the Panel Brightness only as 
    high as is necessary to produce the desired brightness. 
    The Input Image settings establish the “zero point” for the Picture 
    menu settings, whose values represent offsets from the Input 
    Image settings. For example, if you set Brightness to 10 in this 
    menu, setting Brightness to 10 in the Picture menu results in an 
    actual setting value of 20 (10+10).

    should always save it. Select Save ISF Night or Save ISF Day from the Calibration menu to 
    do this.
      Copy/Paste - Memory Preset: You can copy and paste settings from one memory 
    preset to another. This gives you a convenient starting point for creating a new preset 
    based on an existing one, to make the calibration process less time-consuming. 
    For example, you can use the Copy/Paste Memory Preset feature to:
     Apply settings from HDMI 1 to HDMI 2, or from HD1 to HD2.
     Calibrate an input for 720p source signals, then use those settings for 1080i sources.
     Duplicate ISF Night settings for a given source and signal format and save them in the 
    Custom 1 memory preset.
    To use this feature, select Copy/Paste from the Calibration menu, then select Memory
