Abstract
A double display mode for differential gain provides the capability of accurately determining the differential gain of a video system in response to a video test signal without using graticules on a display device. A detected chrominance peak level signal is displayed as a positive and a negative trace on the display device. An offset signal is added to the detected chrominance peak level signal to obtain an overlay on the display device of a first selected point of the traces, and then the offset signal is varied to obtain an overlay on the display device of a second selected point of the traces. The difference in values of the offset signal between the two selected points are used to determine the differential gain of the video system.
