6.Turn on the display monitor that is connected to the selected output channel.

7.Turn on the controlling device (such as your PC), allowing time for it to boot up.

8.From the PC, establish a serial (or Telnet) connection to Quadra (depending upon your configuration). If required, refer to the “System Control Setup” section for instructions.

9.With communications properly established, turn on the “Grid” test pattern for the selected output channel. Type:

TP <output #> GRID

and press Enter. Verify that the grid signal is visible on your display. At this point, however, it may fit properly.

10.Using the Output Timing Load function, enter the ID of the timing parameters that you selected in step 3. Type:

OPTMLOAD <output #> <1 ... 160> Enter

11.Adjust the display to match Quadra’s output: Note:

~For a single display, leave the display’s “auto-sync” circuitry on. Use the display’s position and size controls to center the test pattern, and ensure that the entire test pattern is completely visible.

~In some special applications, you may choose to change Quadra’s output parameters rather than adjust the display device. In this case, use Quadra’s Output Timing Interactive procedure to match the display settings. Refer to the “Advanced Output Timing” section for details.

Note

The Output Timing Interactive procedure can also be

 

used to “fine tune” a single display.

 

 

12.Turn off the test pattern. Type:

TP <output #> OFF Enter

13.With the display adjusted, you can now adjust Quadra’s input timing using the Input Interactive procedure. Refer to the “Input Timing” section for instructions.

For most applications and timings, the steps outlined in the previous section are adequate for matching Quadra’s output to your display. However, for greater accuracy (particularly with dual or multi-monitor configurations), you can fine- tune output settings using the Output Timing Interactive function.

The “interactive” mode places a cursor on screen that defines the boundaries of the output signal (also known as the “active picture”). Unlike other Quadra commands, the interactive mode is one that waits for keystrokes to position the picture, while all other commands are locked out.
