SELECT THE INPUT YOU WANT TO ADJUST ON THE AVP
Wait for the input to switch and for your television to resync on the new
signal (some video projectors may take a few seconds to do this). You
should see the name of the selected source in the front panel displays of
both the AVP and the PMDT.

2

PRESS THE PMDT’S “MENU” BUTTON
You may do this from either the front panel or the remote control of the
PMDT. You will see the PMDT’s front panel display change: the word Input
becomes Black:0. At this point, you can adjust the black level setting for
your chosen source, in steps from 0-18. (Note that the system will “time-out”
after a few seconds if no buttons are pushed, requiring you to start over
again.)

TO CYCLE THROUGH THE AVAILABLE ADJUSTMENTS, PRESS EITHER THE
UP OR DOWN ARROW BUTTONS BEFORE THE SYSTEM “TIME-OUTS” AND
REVERTS TO NORMAL OPERATION
The settings that can be remembered for any given input are:

Black Level

“Black”

0-18 steps

(brightness)

White Level

“White”

75-125%

(contrast)

Chroma

“Chrma”

75-125%

(color)

Tint:

“Tint”

±20 steps

(also called hue)

Pre-shrink

“Shrnk”

Yes/No

(see above)

Each item can be adjusted to suit the needs of your system, and will be
automatically recalled whenever that particular input is selected.

REPEAT THE PROCESS WITH AS MANY SOURCES ON THE AVP AS
NECESSARY

Note that if you need to change the “Shrink” feature temporarily, you can always
enter the menu system described above and make a change. This might occur, for
example, if your satellite service plays almost everything in 4:3, except for the oc-
casional pay-per-view or premium channel. If a 16:9 anamorphically-squeezed
program comes on, you do not need the PVP to squeeze it yet again; set the pre-
shrink feature to off for the duration of the movie, then turn it back to on for nor-
mal programming.
