Precision White Balance with Color Temperature Adjustment

White balance adjustment is essential in order to render colors correctly.

To display colors correctly, gray scale should maintain identical color

temperature. The white balance for ORCHID monitors defaults to D65

(6500K) so the user does not need to adjust white balance.

LCD monitors have color-matching issues because white balance can be

affected by a change in luminance level. Our unique color management

system solves this problem.

The ORCHID operating system includes an Automatic White Balance

function that allows a “One Button” calibration procedure when used with a

Minolta CA-210 color probe. All Orchid Series LCD panels are calibrated

at the factory to ensure color conformity between screens.

Select color temperature and gamma mode

Color temperature presets may be selected between D65 or D93 as well as user-defined settings.

Gamma settings are adjustable from 1.0 to 3.0 in 0.1 steps. The standard setting is 2.2.

Flexible Screen Markers

A variety of screen markers in 4:3, 16:9, and full screen modes allow accurate monitoring of the different aspect

ratios used in broadcast environments.

User-Definable Function Buttons

Nine user-definable function buttons and one Rotary Encoder on the front panel allow quick access to numerous

settings and features including Input 1, Input 2, Option Input, Waveform, Vectorscope, Audio Bars, aspect ratio,

screen markers, monochrome mode, H/V delay mode, and more.

AUDIO Jack

There are two 3.5mm AUDIO jacks (one on the front panel for headphones and one on rear panel to feed an

external amplifier). It is possible to utilize both the front panel headphone connector and rear panel speaker

connector simultaneously with individual volume controls. When not in menu mode, the rotary encoder on the

front panel may control the headphone and internal speaker volume.

Precision Audio Level Meters

De-embeds and displays up to 16 channels of audio using sixteen

64-segment tri-color Audio Meters with user-adjustable reference levels.

The Audio Level Meters provide numerical indicators and headroom levels,

as well as peak hold function. Audio Channel Loss Warning prevents errors

during monitoring.
