Yes, there is a very simple way using the LUT (color look up table) called
SETCOL. This color lookup table sets the highest level red, the lowest level
green and everything in between a blue/purple color. One can then easily
adjust the gain and black level to minimise the amount of red and green on
screen and then you know you have collected the best range. Note: you need
to set LUT to hold LUT if you want to collect live images using color.
 
All the best, Alan Hibbs.
