REMOTE

H The currently operating software version is dis-

played in the lower right corner of the screen.

H Three menu choices are available.

REM INPUT

configures rear-panel

REMOTE

connector pin 3 to

accept External Horizontal or Staircase input.

STAIRCASE

configures the staircase input for 3-step

(RGB) or 4-step (YRGB) signal.

BAUD

configures

the data transmission rate for the rear-panel RS232
connector for 1200, 4800, or 9600 baud.

H The remote input is enabled by a TTL low or switch

to ground. See page B-1.

REFERENCE

(Dual Standard Only)

H NTSC external reference and PAL external refer-

ence can be set to

EXT, A, A1, A2, A3, B, B1, B2,

or

B3

.

H When The front-panel

REF EXT

is selected (LED

lights) the instrument uses the rear-panel

EXT REF

input. Dual-standard monitors can be configured for
two external references; one for NTSC and one for
PAL. Any of the input channels can be designated
as a second external reference by selecting that input
channel as the

NTSC EXT REF

or

PAL EXT REF

through this menu.

H If NTSC and PAL external references are configured

the same, the monitor automatically operates in the
same television standard as the

EXT REF

input.

When NTSC and PAL external references are
configured differently, the monitor’s operating
standard is determined by the standard of the dis-
played video instead of the

EXT REF

input. Once the

operating standard is determined, the monitor
immediately switches to the appropriate input for
reference timing.
