3.Click any of the display icons to view the status box that appears at the bottom of the page.

The display status box shows whether the:

Display is using internal timing

Display is locked to a house sync signal

Display is locked to a frame lock sync pulse

Display stereo signal is in phase with the server

4.Click the G-Sync II card icon to view the status box that appears at the bottom of the page.

The G-Sync II card status box shows:

Whether or not the frame lock ports are used

The direction of the timing signal at each frame lock port - either IN or OUT

Whether or not a house sync signal is present

Swap Sync

The application controls synchronization of buffer swaps (swap sync) between applications. Proper connection and synchronization of the timing signal are required for proper synchronization of buffer swaps.

See Using the OpenGL Extensions (page 55) for instructions on how an application can use the extensions to accomplish swap sync..
