Setting Black Level

The grayscale video signal is measured in IRE units. In some areas which use NTSC TV standard, the
grayscale is measured from 7.5 IRE (black) to 100 IRE (white); however, in other areas where PAL
equipment or Japanese NTSC standards are used, the grayscale is measured from 0 IRE (black) to 100 IRE
(white). We suggest that you check the input source to see if it is with 0 IRE or 7.5 IRE, then select
accordingly.

*About color temperatures:
There are many different shades that are considered to be "white" for various purposes. One of the common methods of
representing white color is known as the “color temperature”. A white color with a low color temperature appears to be
reddish white. A white color with a high color temperature appears to have more blue in it.
