on the global Vector Setup menu see Section 4.
Gamut Display
A constant setback in video production is the difference between the allowable ranges
of dissimilar component and composite color spaces. Combinations of values that are
within the range of a color difference component video system produce signal
amplitudes outside the ranges when the signal is transcoded to composite or RGB color
space.
Pressing the GAMUT button accesses the gamut display for the selected pane. The
Gamut displays show RGB limits or composite video limits. Both Gamut displays
illustrate what colors are causing illegal excursions and whether these digressions are
above or below the allowable limits. The inputs are shown as an encoded display with
gamut alarms. A Digital Input must be selected in order to view the Gamut display.
The displays show RGB and composite video limits.
Vector excursion marks are displayed in the gamut displays. The excursion marks help
to visualize the minimum/maximum value of a 100% color bar signal. The position of
the excursion marks depend on the selected Video Format selection from the VIDEO
FORMAT\VIDEO A thru D CONFIGURE menu.
A gamut display diagram is shown in Figure 3-32 and described in Table 3-19. The
diagram illustrates the general location for the various gamut fields.
