Advanced Controls 

The 

Advanced 

section contains controls for advanced features of the UFG-05 unit. The 

user might need the functions after the installation of the unit but not during the normal 
operation. Please use the features in this section with care. When done improperly, they 
may impair the correct operation of the UFG-05 unit. 

Check firmware 

You can check the firmware version loaded into the non-volatile memory of the unit by 
clicking 

Check Firmware

 button. The firmware version must match to the driver 

version used. Firmware Update process is described in the 

Installation

 section earlier in 

this manual. 

Reset 

Repair

 Resets the UFG-05 unit. Not needed in normal operation. 

A/D Converter Calibration 

The A/D converter of the Analog input can be calibrated by using the 

Calib ADC 

button. The calibration is done to adjust the variations of the integrated circuits. The 
A/D converter calibration is done during manufacturing of the UFG-05 unit and the user 
does not need normally to use this button. 

In order to perform the calibration properly, the set-up needs to fulfill the following 
requirements: 

 

The test image source has to be calibrated 

 

The test image must contain large fully white and fully black areas. 

 

The test image must contain smooth horizontal transitions. 

 

You have to use a timing that is well detected and adjusted before color calibration 

 

You have to use RGB 

Sub-Type

 even if YPbPr will be used later 

Note 

A/D converter calibration is done during manufacturing and the user does not need to 
perform it with his video sources. 

If one reason or other you believe that the A/D converter calibration is not correctly set 
and if a proper test image source is not available, please use the 

Reset ADC

 button. It 

will reset the calibration data to default values. The result will provide acceptable 
captured images but the variations in the integrated circuits will not be compensated.
