NOTE: It is possible for a bad pixel to fail more than one category, so the total bad pixels may be less

5.4.3.3 Video Setup Tab
The X-series cameras have a 14-bit digital output. However, the video output is only 8-bit. An
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) algorithm is used to map the 14-bit digital to the 8-bit analog data. The
Video Tab provides controls related to optimizing the Analog video output. These controls affect
only the HD/SD video. The diagram below shows a flow chart of the video process and how the
parameters of this screen are used.
