4-2. Technical description: About color saturation and hue
The relation of Red, Green and Blue to each other is typically represented in the form of a circle. Adjustment of
Chroma Level (color saturation) is to adjust the amplitude of chrominance signal at each point without changing the
phase.
Adjustment of Chroma Phase (hue) is to rotate the whole circle to some degree.
4-3. Color correction
In addition to Chroma Level and Phase adjustments to a whole picture, AJ-PX230 has the Color Correction function to
vary the level and phase of each of particular twelve colors without affecting the others as little as possible.

Sets the saturation and phase of a color. This has an effect individually on fifteen color axes (twelve tones + three
skin tones) of a picture. And it can be set for an individual hue.
[(PHASE)］ -63 - - - 0 - - - 63
Changes the phase. Positive values are for rotating in clockwise direction and negative values for in
counterclockwise direction.
[(SAT)］ -63 - - - 0 - - - 63
Changes the saturation (level of chroma, the degree to which a color is pure).
