RGB delay (Triple-Action Switching)

With Triple-Action Switching, the DVS 406 switches to the new sync signal before switching RGB (video) signals. That allows the display device to adjust to the new sync timing after a brief delay (during which the display is blanked) before displaying the new picture, which will appear without glitches. Triple- Action Switching is also known as video mute switching.

Use the horizontal Adjust () knob or vertical Adjust () knob to select the blanking period (RGB delay time) from 0 seconds (default) to 5 seconds in 0.5 second steps.

Switch mode

From this submenu, the input switching method may be selected. The two choices are Take (default), which requires the Take button to be pressed to initiate the switch, and Auto, which causes the switch to occur as soon as the selected input button is pressed.

Use either the horizontal Adjust () or vertical Adjust () knob to specify the switch mode.

Blue mode

To aid in setup of the scaler’s color and tint, the Blue mode can be set from this submenu to “On” so that only sync and blue video signals will be passed to the display. Use either the horizontal Adjust () or vertical Adjust () knob to specify this mode. The default is “Off”.

Key mode

Key mode allows input 1 to be displayed simultaneously with any other selected input. The effect resembles two images being displayed in a one-over-the-other fashion.

From this submenu, use either the horizontal Adjust () or vertical Adjust () knob to specify this mode as “On” or “Off”. The default is “Off”. Key mode allows two inputs to be displayed simultaneously, one over the other.

After setting the Key mode to “On”, initiate the Key mode effect by doing the following:

1.Select the input button of the image which will displayed with input 1, then set the output resolution as locked to input 1. See the “Output Configuration” section in this chapter for instructions on locking the resolution.

2.Select the Take button.

The previously described Switch mode must be set to Take in order for the Take button to be enabled.

3.Select the input 1 button twice. The Key mode effect will now occur.

4.To escape from the Key mode effect, press any input button.

Enhanced mode

When the Enhanced mode is set “On”, automatic gain control of the video input signal is enabled. If the input signal level is too weak, the signal gain will be increased, and if the input signal level is excessive, the signal gain will be decreased.

From this submenu, use either the horizontal Adjust () or vertical Adjust () knob to specify this mode as “On” or “Off”. The default is “Off”.
