Show All Users

Select this option to display a list of all users who are currently logged into the AdderView CATxIP 5000 unit together with the host computer (and port) that they are currently viewing.

Advanced Video Settings

This option contains video signal settings that do not normally need to be adjusted.

Custom Video Modes

This option allows you to define non-standard video resolutions and refresh rates to suit your display characteristics.

Enter the horizontal and vertical pixels counts together with the refresh rate and, optionally the Reduced Blanking option (see below), then click the Calc button. Then click the Add button to include the new mode within the list. If you calculate the setting for a mode that has too high a resolution to be displayed full width, this dialog will calculate the values for a half-width version instead.

Reduced Blanking

The Reduced Blanking option can be enabled when using flat panel display monitors and helps to save bandwidth without any loss of performance. The blanking period is present in all standard video signals and is a small time delay to allow the beam of cathode ray tube displays to return to the top left corner of the screen. As flat panel displays do not have a beam, the blanking period can be removed.

Pixel Format Determines the colour depth and data required to represent each video pixel.

YUV / RGB Determines the colour space used by the unit.

Tile Width and Height Determines the size of the sample areas into which the source video screen is divided for examination purposes. Smaller sizes result in more areas to sample, larger areas result in more frequent screen area refreshes.16 is considered to be the optimum size for both the width and height settings.
