Most OS driver software for video includes the settings you want to make.
So setting the monitor for the P3 and the driver for the monitor in computer
mode is certainly doable.

Hi Paul,
That's easier to fix. You must have the waterfall colors set to gray scale.
Press the P3 menu button and turn the knob until you see Wfall Clr. Then
press the knob and turn it to Default Colors. Press the knob again and you
should be good to go.

To get the best contrast on the waterfall display set the REF LVL so
that the noise level is right at the bottom of the spectrum display.
And then adjust the SCALE to make the signals higher on the display.
The waterfall and spectrum use the same REF LVL and SCALE values, so the
more the SCALE
Sounds like you have the waterfall set to monochrome in the Menu.

Tnx for all the responses. I may have poorly stated my question. What I was
trying to say is the waterfall traces seem dim both on P3 and on the monitor I
am using (dedicated to P3 SVGA). Even though signals seem relatively strong in
spectrum display, they are not bright and are monochromatic in
Hi Paul,
I can see a potential problem here if the monitor is doing double duty as a
2nd screen for a PC and as the external monitor for the P3. The desired
brightness and contrast settings for PC use might be different than those
desired for P3 use. Not too much you can do about that except to br
for that adjustment.

Paul,
Your monitor should have brightness and contrast controls. You
should use those to adjust the SVGA brightness and contrast, as you
would on any TV or monitor.
Setting the SVGA bias will only adjust the color saturation of the
SVGA waterfall.

The backlight brightness of the P3 display can be adjusted with the "LCD
Brt" menu entry. On the external display, try playing around with the
"SVGA bias" entry in the "SVGA menu" sub-menu.

Just installed the SVGA card in my P3. But I can't figure out how to adjust the
brightness of the waterfall trace. I am guessing it is an adjustment in the P3
menu, because the waterfall on both the P3 and SVGA monitor are rather dim. I
have not been able to locate any "how to " in the P3 Manual
