NEC PA242W User Manual

Adjusts the overall image and background screen brightness.

NOTE:  The brightness level is adjusted using the backlight output.
 

The display will digitally compensate for low or high brightness levels.

 

If digital compensation occurs, the brightness value on the OSD will change to magenta.

NOTE:  The optimal display performance will be in the range where the OSD brightness value is black. When the  

 

 

display cannot achieve the desired brightness, the numerical brightness value on the OSD will blink.

NOTE:  For low brightness settings, the display will automatically compensate by adjusting the screen contrast to  

 

 

achieve the desired brightness. This will result in a reduced contrast ratio and the OSD indicator will change  

 to 

magenta.

NOTE:  For high brightness settings, the display will automatically compensate by turning down uniformity    

 

 

compensation in order to achieve the desired brightness. The OSD indicator will change to magenta and this  

 

may result in decreased uniformity.

Adjusts the overall image and background screen brightness by input signal level.

NOTE:  It is recommended to use BRIGHTNESS to adjust screen brightness for lower power consumption and  

 

 

improved image quality.

Decreases the amount of power consumed by reducing the brightness level.

OFF: No function.

MODE1: Reduces the maximum possible brightness to about 200 cd/m

Adjusts the black luminance.
When low settings are selected that cannot be displayed, the indicator on the OSD will turn magenta.

Automatically adjusts the Image Position and H. SIZE settings and FINE settings.

Adjusts the image displayed for non-standard video inputs.

Controls Horizontal Image Position within the display area of the LCD.

Controls Vertical Image Position within the display area of the LCD.

Adjusts the horizontal size by increasing or decreasing this setting.

If the “AUTO ADJUST” function do not give you a satisfactory picture setting, a further tuning can be performed using 
the “H.SIZE (or V.SIZE)” function (dot clock). For this a Moiré test pattern could be used. This function may alter the 
width of the picture. Use LEFT/RIGHT Menu to center the image on the screen. If the H.SIZE (or V.SIZE) is wrongly 
calibrated, the result would look like the left drawing. The image should be homogeneous.

When H.SIZE value is 

wrong.

When H.SIZE value is 

improved.

When H.SIZE value is 

correct.
