The following sections provide information on other tasks. You can also consult the online help by pressing F1 to open the Help ﬁle and then opening the Workstation->Frame Synchronization contents.

Introducing a Timing Delay at Client Systems

You can introduce a sync offset, or a delay between the source trigger point coming into the client system and the actual sync pulse. The value can be in the range of 0 to the time needed to display an entire frame.
