Once you are familiar with the Controller, all system setup procedures and basic Encore
operations, you must complete the following operational setup steps — in order to properly
configure processor #4 and its Preview output.
Multi-button method — Use the following steps to complete your wide screen
preview setup, using six individual buttons for processor sources:
1. Set up processor #4 as a unique Encore destination. In Chapter 6, refer to the
“Destination Setup” section on page 277.
2. On the Controller, identify six buttons on the Source Selection Bus that you want
to use as the inputs from processors 1, 2 and 3.
3. Set up these designated inputs as direct DVI connections. In Chapter 6, refer to
the “Input Setup” section on page 293 for details.
Note Program 2 output is used because it is a clean feed, without
any edge feathering or data doubling in the signal.
Note Each processor must have a unique ID.
Note Two different methods are available for connecting processor
sources: multi-button and single button.
