    Main MenuThe Main Menu is the starting point for accessing all projector functions. 
    (You must enter a passcode to access the Setup and ISF menus.)
    Source SelectChoose Source Select from the Main Menu to switch video sources. 
    The active source is indicated by an arrow to its left; in this example, Video is the active 
    source. To select a different source, use the 
     or  button to highlight it and press ENTER. 
    Picture AdjustUse the controls in the Picture Adjust menu to calibrate your Vision 65/75 for optimum 
    picture quality. To access the Picture Adjust menu, press MENU, highlight Picture Adjust and 
    press ENTER. 
    To adjust a setting, use the  or  button to highlight it and press ENTER. Use the  or  
    button to change the setting. When finished, press EXIT.
    The Vision 65/75 has been designed to incorporate setup and calibration standards 
    established by the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF). The ISF has developed carefully crafted, 
    industry-recognized standards for optimal video performance and has implemented a 
    training program for technicians and installers to use these standards to obtain optimal 
    picture quality from Vidikron video display devices. Accordingly, Vidikron recommends that 
    setup and calibration be performed by an ISF certified installation technician.
    All signal types require separate processing. Therefore, you need to calibrate each input 
    separately. 
    Although it may be possible to obtain satisfactory picture quality using the naked eye and 
    regular program material, Vidikron recommends using the following calibration tools for 
    best results: 
     External test pattern source – Ovation Multimedia, Digital Video Essentials or AVIA test 
    DVD or equivalent.
     A blue filter (provided with many test DVDs), for color level and tint adjustments.
    Connect your test pattern source to the input that you are calibrating and proceed as follows. 
    Perform the adjustments in the order listed here.

    Picture Memory: For each input, the Vision 65/75 lets you store picture quality settings as 
    presets that you can recall at a later time. You can create up to four presets per input and 
    resolution, to accommodate changing lighting conditions or viewer preferences. 
    To select a picture memory preset, highlight Picture Memory in the Picture Adjust menu. 
    Then, press  or  to select “Custom 1,” “Custom 2,” “ISF Night” or “ISF Day.” When you 
    select “Custom 1” or “Custom 2,” any changes to picture quality settings are stored in the 
    selected preset. 
    Copy Settings: When you select the “Custom 1” or “Custom 2” Picture Memory preset, you 
    can copy the settings from another preset to the selected preset. This gives you a convenient 
    starting point for creating a new, custom preset. To do this, select 
    Copy Settings from the 
    Picture Adjust menu and press . Then, choose “Custom 1,” “Custom 2,” “ISF Night” or 
    “ISF Day.” 
    Brightness: On your external test pattern source, select a PLUGE pattern. (PLUGE is an 
    acronym for “Picture Line-Up Generation Equipment.”) 
    Figure 4-2 shows a typical PLUGE 
    pattern.
    Figure 4-2. Typical PLUGE Pattern for Adjusting Brightness
    PLUGE patterns vary but generally consist of some combination of black, white and gray 
    areas against a black background. The example above includes two vertical bars and four 
    shaded boxes.
    1. To store changes to the ISF Night or ISF Day Picture Memory preset, 
    select that Picture Memory in the ISF menu (refer to ISF on page 59). 
    You must enter a passcode to access the ISF menu. 
    2. The Picture Memory selection you make here is not retained when the 
    projector is powered off, then on again. To specify which Picture 
    Memory should take effect when the projector is powered on, select it 
    in the ISF menu. 
    To copy changes to the ISF Night or ISF Day Picture Memory preset, select 
    that Picture Memory in the ISF menu (refer to ISF on page 59). You must 
    enter a passcode to access the ISF menu.

    Select Brightness from the Picture Adjust menu and press ENTER. Adjust the level so that:
     The darkest black bars disappear into the background. 
     The dark gray areas are barely visible.
     The lighter gray areas are clearly visible.
     The white areas are a comfortable level of true white.
     The image contains only black, gray and white (no color).
    Contrast: On your external test pattern source, select a stepped, gray-bar pattern like the 
    one shown in 
    Figure 4-3. 
    Figure 4-3. Typical Gray Bar Pattern for Adjusting Contrast
    Select Contrast from the Picture Adjust menu and press ENTER. Adjust the contrast to a point 
    just below which the white rectangle starts to increase in size.
    Brightness and Contrast controls are interactive. A change to one may 
    require a subtle change to the other in order to achieve the optimum 
    setting. Note

    Color: On your external test pattern source, select a color bar pattern like the one shown in 
    Figure 4-4. 
    Figure 4-4. Typical Color Bar Pattern for Adjusting Color Saturation and Tint
    Select Color from the Picture Adjust menu and press ENTER. While looking at the color bar 
    pattern through a blue filter, adjust the color saturation level until the outermost (gray and 
    blue) color bars appear to be a single shade of blue: 
    Tint: Tint or “hue” is essentially the ratio of red to green in the color portion of the image. 
    When tint is decreased, the image appears redder; when it is increased the image appears 
    greener. To set the tint, select Tint from the 
    Picture Adjust menu and press ENTER. While 
    looking at the color bar pattern through a blue filter, adjust the tint level until the cyan and 
    magenta color bars (on either side of the green bar) appear to be a single shade of blue. 
    Like the Brightness and Contrast controls, the color and tint controls are 
    interactive. A change to one may require a subtle change to the other in 
    order to achieve the optimum setting.

    Sharpness: “Sharpness” is the amount of high-frequency detail in the image. To adjust 
    sharpness, select Sharpness from the Picture Adjust menu and press ENTER. On your 
    external test pattern source, select a pattern like the one shown in Figure 4-5. Adjust as 
    needed, looking for white edges around the transitions from black to gray and 
    differently-sized lines in the “sweep” patterns at the top and bottom. Lower the sharpness 
    setting to eliminate them.

    Color Temperature: The Vision 65/75 has five memory settings for Color Temperature: 
     5400 kelvins
     6500 kelvins
     9300 kelvins
    
    
    Custom 1 and Custom 2 are installer-adjustable and can be used to create custom settings. 
    There are six (6) adjustable “white balance” parameters available for the Custom 1 and 
    Custom 2 settings (two each for red, green and blue). These are described later in this 
    section; refer to 
    White Balance on page 59. 
    Reset to Defaults: To reset all picture quality settings for the current input to their 
    factory-default values, select

    With a 2.35:1 screen and a
