Input Levels – HDMI,
Digital, Component,
Composite or S-Video
Sources
The Input Levels menu for HDMI, Digital, Component, Composite and S-Video sources,
shown below, is simpler than that for Analog sources, but serves the same basic purpose:
maximizing contrast without “crushing” (where lighter areas appear white or darker areas
appear black).
Brightness: On your external test pattern source, select a PLUGE pattern. (PLUGE is an
acronym for “Picture Line-Up Generation Equipment.”)
Figure 3-8 shows a typical PLUGE
pattern.
Figure 3-8. 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.
Select Brightness from the Picture 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).
