Display Features
Menu Setup
Provides for up to five distinct users to save/recall their settings.
Function Buttons
You can program the F1 and F2 buttons to enable frequently accessed features.
Guide Frames
The VH7i includes the following selectable framing & safe area:
4:3
16:9
Peaking
Peaking highlights the sharpest (most in focus) areas of the image with a color outline. The VH7i features Monochrome Peaking that shows the image in black and white with the red peaking outline.
False Color
The False Color feature provides under/over luminance warning by presenting the image as a series of color values representing exposure.
Clip Guides
Set the upper IRE limit on the monitor and any part of the frame that is brighter than the set limit will flash a vivid purple. Clip Guides is only available on the HDMI input.
Luma Under/Over
ikan's exclusive Adjustable Under Exposure and Over Exposed Warning feature is an extension of false color. It allows the operator to set the preferred IRE exposure limits, and the operator is warned when the image exposure exceeds or falling under the preset IRE limit. This is only available on the HDMI input.
DSLR Scaling
The DSLR Scaling function enables users to expand their DSLR camera's HDMI video signal to fill the monitor's screen if they wish. Users may choose from one of four scaling options: Normal, 3:2, 16:9, or Full Screen. DSLR scaling is only available on the HDMI input.
Movable Pixel-to-Pixel
The VH7i's 1:1 pixel-to-pixel mapping allows you to look at parts of your image without any scaling, so you can see the actual detail and not be fooled by scaling artifacts.
Still Compare
This function displays a side-by-side comparison of the incoming video signal. Pushing the F1/2 button one time will enter the mode. Each time the F1/2 button is pushed, it will freeze the current frame on the right hand side of the display while the left continues to display the live signal. Pressing the exit button will exit the window mode. Use Window 1 for 16:9 signals and Window 2 for 4:3 signals.
