I think it could be anything programmed, but you dont need to know it. Chance dip switch 5 off from controller module.

But I'm not sure if 1209/2 driver and neck cards have hardware for menu G2 adjustment (green leds in neck boards) and gamma adjustments, 1209s have those.

I'm pretty sure 1209/2 have "manual" G2 adjustment like 1208/1209. G2 procedure start from page 2, black balance.

Gamma adjustment in s series Barcos can't be used to boost low level ires, like external boxes. It's used to get grayscale adjustment gamma (middle range) correct.

That is correct. "Gamma adjustments" in Barcos (and all other CRT projectors) is not for low level black boost. You need to use an external box.
