1. c Video Test Pattern Generator dip switches or potentiometers as in ACO90A These two patterns are perfect for these types of installations The user can set the amount of compensation perfectly Hu Figure 5 Video transmission test patterns The same 2 patterns are also useful for Video over UTP Category cable both for the high frequency loss compensation above paragraph but also for Skew Compensation for those devices that give you this flexibility The right and left edges of the RGB bars should vertically line up Again this pattern gives you a convenient means for making this adjustment Operation Summary To change the resolution being produced press the OUTPUT MODE button repeatedly The output screen has an OSD to indicate the resolution and refresh rate settings NOTE It is possible to set the output resolution to one that your monitor does not support In this case you my not get a screen You can either keep pressing the OUTPUT MODE button as it eventually goes through all the available outputs in a circular fashion or use 2 button QuickSelect combinations To change pattern press the or keys To get analog high res component video output at the HD15 connector instead of VGA slide the switch to YPbPr and press the 480p QuickSelect The LED will turn on to indicate that there is a valid component output signal present NOTES If the LED is not on that means you are not getting a pr2. small slide switch gt There s an indicator LED next to the slide switch that comes on when the output resolution is one of the standard HDTV resolutions AND the slide switch is in YPbPr mode gt To operate the unit you use 3 push button switches One button is used to walk through all the resolutions and refresh rates that are available it is labeled OUTPUT MODE The other 2 buttons are used to change the video pattern being generated there are 28 patterns these buttons are labeled and gt For quick jump to a known resolution instead of walking through them one by one using the MODE switch pressing two buttons simultaneously jumps to a given resolution refresh rate Pressing the left two buttons gets you to XGA at 60 Hz and subsequent pressing of the MODE button will take you up from there Pressing the right two buttons gets you to 480p a standard HDTV mode Please note that in these HDTV modes the DVI is outputting the proper signal and if the slide switch is in VGA you are getting RGBHV output and if in YPbPr you get component video with sync on Y and the LED will light to indicate that the unit is outputting a proper YPbPr output o MA Model AC1034A gt Here is a list of output resolutions that the Mode button will walk you through there s an on screen display OSD which indicates the mode setting PC Resolutions VGA 640 X 480 50 60 72 75 85 Hz SVGA 800 X 600 50 56 60 72 75 85 Hz XGA 102
