Chapter 3 : OPERATING MODE (continued)

3-2. SWITCHING OPERATIONS (continued)

•FADE COLOR:

The FADE COLOR allows switching between 2 sources with a fading to a color of you choice. This transition operates in Fast Switching mode and sometimes in Seamless mode (only when the others effects are not possible). You can select the color of the fading with the LCD menu (CONTROLS > Transition > Fade color).

•CLEAN CUT:

The CLEAN CUT allows a clean switching thanks to a fast freeze of the displayed source. Activate the CLEAN CUT with the LCD menu (CONTROLS > Transition > Clean cut).

3-3. DISPLAY DEVICE ADJUSTMENTS

•IN SEAMLESS MODE:

cSelect the reference computer source. The reference computer image is displayed onto the output.

dAdjust directly the display device itself, using its position and size controls, to fill the computer image in full screen.

d

•IN FAST SWITCHING MODE:

cDisplay the Centering pattern with the LCD menu (OUTPUT > Test pattern > Centering). d Display a black output.

e Adjust directly the display device itself, using its position and size controls, to fill the centering pattern in full screen.

3-4. IMAGE ADJUSTMENTS

For each input source connected to the DEVICE, make the following adjustments:

NOTE: In seamless mode the reference computer input can not be adjusted.

cSelect the source you want to adjust (with the front panel "INPUT SELECTION" buttons). d Select the aspect ratio of your input source with the LCD menu (IMAGE > Aspect ratio).

eUse the Centering function (IMAGE > Centering) to automatically position the image in the Centering pattern. IMPORTANT: For best results, display a full size bright image (no black border) to perform a centering. If

necessary, correct the adjustment with the position & size functions (IMAGE > Pos settings).

NOTE: The centering function is only available for computer sources.

NOTE: In case of same Input/Output resolution, the centering also achieves automatic pixel clock adjustments. It may be useful, to improve manually the pixel clock and phase using the LCD menu (IMAGE > Optimize

>Clock or Phase).

fAs required, make the others adjustments, available in the LCD IMAGE menu (color, brightness…).

NOTE: To set the image adjustments to the factory settings, use the Preset function (IMAGE > Preset > Yes).

NOTE: The adjustments are automatically stored in NON-volatile memories. The device is provided with 40 NON- volatile image memories. Each of these memories contains the input channel number, the input and output format parameters and all of the image adjustments (position, size, brightness...). When the 40 memories are used, each new memorization erases the oldest record.

3-5. AUDIO ADJUSTMENTS

cAdjust the master volume (AUDIO > Master volume).

dSet the auto follow or breakaway audio mode (AUDIO > Audio source > Auto follow or Input # x):

-auto follow = the audio switching follows automatically the video switching.

-breakaway = the selected audio input is permanently diffused.

eFor each audio input, adjust the level (AUDIO > Audio level) and the balance (AUDIO > Audio balance). f Adjust your microphone (AUDIO > Mic-control).
