FMTJ

ForMaT Justify

Classification:

Format editor control

Command Syntax:

FMTJ

Query Syntax:

None

Description:

The FMTJ command corrects some types of timing errors for
the current data in the format buffer. The following errors are
corrected:

Pixel Rate errors 2071 and 2072

Video Memory Size error 2550

Horizontal Blanking errors 2140, 2141, 2150 and 2155

Horizontal Total errors 2090 and 2091

Horizontal Sync Pulse Width errors 2181 and 2201

Vertical Resolution error 2321

The justification routine tries to keep the format close to
your original specifications. However, the format should be
reviewed after it is justified to make sure it still meets your
timing requirements.

Other Required Cmds:

The FMTU command instructs the generator to use the new

settings. The ALLU command updates hardware to the new
settings and redraws the test image. The FMTG? query can be
used to see if any errors remain.

Example:

F M T J
F M T U / / U p d a t e h a r d w a r e t o c u r r e n t
