SVx41HDI Series Server Remote Control: Instruction Guide

Use the Auto Everything button to automatically fine-tune all three adjustments. If the test pattern for Color Offset calibration is not present on the screen, then the Color Offset adjustment is skipped.

Changes/frame indicates the number of 16x16 blocks of video that are being sent, on average, for every frame of video. With a static image being displayed by the server, this number will be zero (shown as -nil-). Moving the mouse, for example, will cause the number to jump to about 2 or 3. You may use this number to judge the picture quality as you adjust the controls on this menu.

Picture Positioning affects the image position on your screen. If you see a black line on either side of your screen, or at the top or bottom, you can use the arrow buttons to shift the image in that direction. Pressing Auto does the same thing for you automatically. Use Save to save the changes you have made manually. Since this adjustment depends on the video mode, separate values are stored for each video mode.

Color Offset is a fine tuning adjustment that requires the use of a test pattern. There is a copy of the test pattern available on the Help! menu of the integrated web server. You must arrange for that image to be shown on the managed computer. Do not allow scaling, cropping or any other changes to that image. Press the Auto button and the system will calibrate color for the best possible picture in approximately one minute. If the system cannot find the test pattern on the screen, it will say so. Check that the pattern isn't scaled or covered up. It's important to do this operation in 24-bit or 32-bit color video mode (i.e. true color). Although the algorithm may work in 16-bit or 8-bit color video modes, the results will not be optimum and usually it won't be able to recognize the test pattern.

Pressing the Advanced button will open the Advanced Video Tuning menu. While the vast majority of users will not need to adjust these settings, it offers a high-degree of control of the video settings of your VNC sessions. See Appendix B for more information on this feature.

Sampling Phase does not normally need to be used since our system tunes the sampling phase whenever the video mode changes. This button does not require a test pattern, but will perform
