Considerations about the use of measurement tools in 3DView mode

When using the 3DView mode the tool’s spot displays the two inputs simultaneously. It is valid for the Waveform, Histogram and Vectorscope.

To identify clearly the source, each spot uses a specific color.

The colors used are the same as those selected for the Anaglyph/Monochrome mode.

The selection of the color is done in MENU/3D/… i.e. Using the HISTOGRAM with RED CYAN colors will display input 1 in RED and input 2 in CYAN. The common values of the HISTOGRAM will be displayed in white, the differences in BLUE or CYAN. i.e. Using the HISTOGRAM with RED/BLUE colors will display input 1 in RED and input 2 in BLUE. The common values of the HISTOGRAM will be displayed in

MAGENTA, the differences in RED or BLUE.

Service & Maintenance

General

Please read carefully the chapter « TRANSVIDEO Equipment Limited Warranty » about the warranty given by TRANSVIDEO S.A. on the equipment described in this manual.

For repairs after the warranty period, you can refer to your local TRANVIDEO

Distributor/retailer or use the following procedure.

Useful tips

CLEANING

The painting of the CineMonitorHD3DView is resistant to general cleaners and solvents. Do not use abrasive products to clean the CineMonitorHD3DView.

The front glass is a high quality optical part. A metallic multi-layers vacuum deposit makes the anti-reflection coating. Do not use abrasive or acid cleaners.

The microfiber cloth delivered with the CineMonitorHD3DView is strongly recommended to clean the glass. Remove dust and particles of the glass before using the cloth. No liquid is normally necessary. If there is some dirt on the screen, it is possible to remove it with clean warm water.

The microfiber cloth collects grease particle in its structure. It is necessary to wash it when necessary with water and soap.

The microfiber cloth is orderable as spare part (see accessories)

FULL RESET

In case of need, it is possible to fully reset the CineMonitorHD3DView.

Connect the monitor to a power source

Switch off the monitor with the power switch on the back

Press the “adjust” pad

Switch on the monitor keeping pressed the “adjust” pad until the display shows

“FULL RESET”

This procedure totally erases all user setup in the memories.
