Gamma
Generally, the monitor brightness varies nonlinearly with the input signal level, which is called “Gamma
Characteristic”. A small gamma value produces a low-contrast image, while a large gamma value
produces a highcontrast image.
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection)
Digital signal coding system developed to copy-protect the digital contents, such as video, music, etc.
This helps to transmit the digital contents safely by coding the digital contents sent via DVI terminal on
the output side and decoding them on the input side. Any digital contents cannot be reproduced if both of
the equipments on the output and input sides are not applicable to HDCP system.
Phase
Phase means the sampling timing to convert the analog input signal to a digital signal. Phase adjustment
is made to adjust the timing. It is recommended that phase adjustment be made after the clock is adjusted
correctly.
Range Adjustment
Range adjustment controls the signal output levels to display every color gradation. It is recommended
that range adjustment be made before color adjustment.
