Y Gain, RY Gain, BY Gain,
Pr Gain, Pb Gain
Available for Component output only in some Avid input/output hardware
configurations.
Y Gain: Lets you adjust Y Gain, a measurement of luma (Y) in the
video signal that is the whitest point in the visible picture. Use color
bars to set the white level.
RY Gain: Lets you adjust the red (R) minus luminance (Y)
color-difference signal of an analog component system in the SMPTE
NTSC video standard. The signal consists of the following base
equation for red (R), green (G), and blue (B) components: R–Y =
–0.587G – 0.114B + 0.701R.
BY Gain: Lets you adjust the blue (B) minus luminance (Y)
color-difference signal of an analog component system in the SMPTE
NTSC video standard. The signal consists of the following base
equation for red (R), green (G), and blue (B) components: B–Y=
(–0.587G + 0.886B – 0.299R) * gain value.
Pr Gain: Lets you adjust the gain of the Pr color-difference signal (a
scaled version of the RY signal) of an analog component system.
Pb Gain: Lets you adjust the gain of the Pb color-difference signal (a
scaled version of the BY signal) of an analog component system.
System Phase In some Avid input/output hardware configurations, lets you modulate the
timing of the output signal and a reference signal. Available for S Video,
Component, or Composite output.
SubPixel HPhase Provides a fine adjustment of Horizontal phase. Available for S Video,
Component, or Composite output.
Settings menu Lets you save the settings for an individual tape each time you calibrate
bars. Available for S Video, Component, or Composite output.

Option Description
Output menu Lets you select an HD component output, either Convert to
HD Component RGB or HD Component YPbPr.
Gain Lets you adjust a measurement of luma (Y) in the video signal that is the
whitest point in the visible picture. Use color bars to set the white level.
Available on some systems for HD Component RGB or
HD Component YPbPr output.
