Color is comprised of three parameters:
• Tint: The continuum of hues on the color wheel, ranging from red, through green and blue, and back to
red.
• Brightness: A measure of the brightness of the color.
• Color: The degree of whiteness of the color. A scale from white to pure color.
The most frequently occurring color deficiency is the inability to distinguish red, yellow, and green from one
another. Confusion between these colors can usually be eliminated by increasing the brightness between
the colors. To accomplish this, press the
softkey and turn the analyzer front panel knob.
If additional adjustment is needed, vary the degree of whiteness of the color. To accomplish this, press the
softkey and turn the analyzer front panel knob.
NOTE Color changes and adjustments remain in effect until changed again in these menus or the
analyzer is powered off and then on again. Cycling the power changes all color adjustments
to default values. Once the colors are saved, pressing the
key does not affect the
color selections.
