Adjustment
 Black balance adjustment
 Black balance adjustment
In order for the black to be reproduced accurately, the zero 
levels of the three primary colors (RGB) are adjusted. If the 
black balance has shifted out of adjustment, not only will the 
black be reproduced poorly but the color tones of the entire 
screen will also be degraded.
Normally, the black balance need not be re-adjusted, but it is 
necessary in the following situations.
 This adjustment must be performed when using the 
unit for the first time or when the unit has not been 
used for a prolonged period.
 The adjustment must be performed when the ambient 
temperature has changed significantly and at the 
change of the seasons.
  Automatic adjustment
When performing the operations 
using the wireless remote control
The procedure is the same as with “Automatic adjustment” in 
“White balance adjustment” (page 22).
The auto white balance adjustment (AWB) and auto black 
balance adjustment (ABB) can be performed, and the black 
balance setting entered.
 The white balance setting is also entered at the same 
time so ensure that the conditions for adjusting the white 
balance are met before proceeding.
 The black balance cannot be adjusted when color bars 
are displayed. Press the [MODE] button to switch to the 
camera picture.
When performing the operations using the controller
When the AW-RP655 or AW-RP555 is connected:
Press the [ABC] button.
The auto black balance operation is executed, and the 
black balance setting is entered.
The [ABC] button’s lamp or LED blinks while the black 
balance is being adjusted, and its lamp goes off when 
the adjustment is completed successfully. It lights if the 
black balance could not be adjusted.
 If color bars have been selected (the [MODE] button 
or [BAR/CAM] button lights), it means that the [ABC] 
button is not working or that the auto black balance 
adjustment has failed. (The button’s lamp lights.)
When the AW-RP50 is connected:
Refer to the Operating Instructions of the controller.
