Use the following steps to set up the Quadra’s output timing.

Note

This setup procedure applies to both analog and digital

 

displays.

 

 

1.Select the output channel and display device for which you want to set up timing.

2.Obtain a copy of the display device’s operations manual or technical guide, and make a note of the following important parameters:

~Type: Is the display device a CRT or LCD device?

~Format: Is the display device Analog or Digital?

~Resolution: Note the display device’s native horizontal and vertical resolution (e.g., 1600 x 1200).

~Refresh rate: Note the display device’s optimum refresh rate (e.g., 60Hz, 75Hz, etc.).

~Sync: For analog devices, note the type of Sync required (5-wire, 4-wire or 3-wire).

~Sync polarity: Note the preferred sync polarity (positive or negative).

~Interlace: Most graphics displays are non-interlaced, but interlaced signals are used in some special applications. Note the required interlace setting (interlace or non-interlace) for your display.

3.In Chapter 4, review the list of output parameters in the “Factory Timing List,” and find the set of parameters that most closely match those of the display device (as you noted in step 2). Make a note of the Reference ID for this set of parameters (column 1 in the Factory Timing List). This ID will be used in a subsequent step.

ΣExample: If your monitor is VESA 800 x 600 @ 75Hz, the reference ID is 11.

ΣExample: If your monitor is VESA 1280 x 1024 @ 75Hz, the reference ID is 21.

4.Ensure that the following connections have been made:

~Quadra is properly connected to the display monitor for the selected output channel.

~The controlling device (such as an ASCII terminal or PC) is properly connected to the Quadra — either via serial or Ethernet connection.

If required, refer to the “Installation” section for instructions.

5.Turn on the Quadra.
