Quadra can be used with both standard and non-standard display devices. You can allow Quadra to automatically “learn” the display’s timing parameters, or you can enter your own. Internally, Quadra keeps an “Factory Timing Listthat contains both factory-defined and user-defined timing values.

The first 99 entries in the Factory Timing List are reserved for factory defined entries.

Entries from 100 to 160 are reserved for user-defined values.

The “user entry” feature is helpful for storing non-standard timing information, or special applications where a preset timing parameter needs to be adjusted — and then stored in a register. In some cases, you may also need to create your own custom timing parameters.

Quadra performs its timing functions in the following way:

When you connect a display to one of Quadra’s outputs, Quadra automatically measures the display’s timing parameters.

Quadra then searches the “user entry” section of the Factory Timing List. If it finds a match (for example, one that you have previously stored), it selects and loads those parameters.

If Quadra does not find a match in the “user entry” section, it searches through all factory defined entries and loads the closest match.

If you want to manually enter your own parameter to more closely match those of the selected display monitor, the “Output Timing” and “Advanced Output Timing” procedure enable you to do so, and store those settings in a memory register.

Important

If you choose to manually enter timing parameters, the

 

output timing procedure should be performed first,

 

followed by the input timing procedure. This sequence

 

should be repeated for each of Quadra’s four channels.

 

 

The Output Timing procedure enables you to match a channel’s output signal to the graphic display device that is attached to that channel. Quadra generates a wide range of preset VESA-compliant output formats, and also enables users to define custom values.

The overall procedure has four parts:

Learn the characteristics of the display device(s) that are connected to Quadra’s output channels.

For the first output channel, load the required output format using the “OutPutTiMingLOAD” function.

Use your display’s controls to center and size the image.

Repeat the procedure for all remaining output channels and their associated displays.
