3).RGB to WHITE
The RGB to WHITE setting allows the ability to calibrate the white achieved when mixing RGBWA.
When RGB to WHITE is set to OFF, the output when Red, Green, Blue, White and Amber is at
maximum is 255 for all five colors. By definition this combination produces a white which may not be the
"blend" of white that cameras and other video equipment may want to "see".
When RGB is set to ON, the output can be white balanced to whatever looks good on camera. It also
serves to balance the white into a "warm" white which makes people look a lot better when they are in
the light!
See RGB to WHITE, for how to calibrate the white when the RGB to WHITE is turned ON.
To turn RGB either OFF or ON, go through the Root Menu until RGB to WHITE is found. Press Enter
and then use the ↑ or ↓ buttons to get to either OFF or ON. Once chosen, press Enter to save the
setting and then Menu to exit out back to the Root Menu.

To set the DTV setting, go through the Root Menu until DV. Press Enter and then use the ↑ or↓ buttons
to get to either NTSC or PAL. Once chosen, press Enter to save the setting and the Menu to exit back
