DIPSWITCH SETTINGS
Most installations will not require any changes to the dipswitch settings. The factory default and
specialized dipswitch settings are indicated below.
Factory Default Settings:
Dipswitches ON: 1, 3 & 4
Horizontal Position Control: Enabled
Signal Format: RGBHV
Monitor Emulation at Power Up: Enabled
The following table lists the functions of the 6 dipswitches:
DIPSWITCH FUNCTION SETTING
1 Horizontal Position Control
On = Enabled*
Off = Disabled
2
Output Sync Format
(sync on green) On = RGsB
Off = RGBS / RGBHV*
3
Output Sync Format
(RGBS or RGBHV) On = RGBHV*
Off = RGBS
4
Monitor Emulation
at power up On = Enabled*
Off = Disabled
5 Reserved
6 Reserved
* Factory Default Setting
MONITOR EMULATION
The factory default setting for the CIA116 is Monitor Emulation Enabled. If the application requires
a local monitor, make sure that the front panel Monitor Emulation LED is OFF (press the MONITOR
EMULATION Button to toggle between enabled / disabled). If no local monitor is necessary, make
sure the Monitor Emulation LED is ON.
OPTIMAL SETTINGS FOR LCD / DMD / D-ILA / PLASMA DISPLAYS
Output Sync Format - CIA100 Series Interfaces feature advanced sync processing circuitry that
offers superb compatibility with a wide range of display devices. The CIA116 has been designed
(and extensively tested) to provide excellent operation when set for RGBHV, RGBS and RGsB
output signal formats. However, some display devices most readily identify and display VGA-
type signals when they are in the RGBHV signal format. For this reason, users may achieve
optimal compatibility and more consistent results when the interface is set to the factory default
output sync format of RGBHV (see Dipswitch Settings above).
Horizontal Position Control - The CIA116 horizontal position control utilizes a new circuit
design that provides excellent image quality and greatly enhanced compatibility with a variety of
data display technologies. However, in rare cases, instability in parts of the displayed image may
still occur (depending on the design of the display device’s sync circuitry). Adjusting the data
display’s fine phase or auto phase adjustment will usually alleviate the problem. If problems
persist, users may wish to disable the CIA116 horizontal position control (see Dipswitch Settings
above).
