I'll take a guess that you are using an 8 bit display. If this guess is
correct, the COLOR_QUAN function is what your looking for. See the
online documentation.
On the other hand, if you have a 24-bit display, all you need is
something along the lines of
TV, R, CHANNEL=1
TV, G, CHANNEL=2
TV, B, CHANNEL=3
See the documentation for "true-color displays".

Simply define a color table which uses different parts for different images.
For example:
nc = !d.nc / 3 ;One third of the color table
r=intarr(3*nc) & g=r & b=r ;Initialize color tables
x = 256*indgen(nc) / nc ;Generic color scale
r(0) = x ;First third is red
g(nc) = x ;Second third is green
b(2*nc) = x ;Last third is blue
tvlct, r, g, b ;Load the color tables
tv,bytscl(i1,top=nc),0 ;Display first image
tv,bytscl(i2,top=nc)+nc,1 ;Display second image
tv,bytscl(i3,top=nc)+2*nc,2 ;Display last image
