Seamless switch mode
		1.	Input 4 must be configured as passive. Turning seamless switch mode on
		1.
		2.	automatically configures input 4 as passive if necessary.
		2.	Turning seamless switch mode off does not reconfigure input 4.
		3.	When seamless switching is on; and you switch to input 1, 2, or 3; that
			input is synced to the input 4 reference. The synced input 1, 2, or 3 is
			termed the “channel in common”. Seamless switching only occurs
			between the passive channel 4 input and the channel in common input.
			Switching between input 4 and a non-common in channel input occurs
			during the vertical interval of input 4. There is a slight delay without
			blanking while the new input syncs to input 4 and becomes the new
			channel in common input.
			When you switch between two scaled inputs without going through input
			4, the switch is not seamless. A brief blanking interval is seen on the
			output.

Seamless mode on		[SM1]		[OK]	Turn seamless mode on (and
					configure input 4 as passive, if
					necessary).
