Automatic video adjustment
NOTE: You may also select Tools - Automatic Video Adjust from the Video Viewer menu or click the Automatic
Video Adjust toolbar icon to automatically adjust the video.
In most cases, you will not need to alter the Video Settings from the default. The system will
automatically adjust and use the optimal video parameters. The DSView 3 management software
performs best when the video parameters are set such that no (0) video packets are transmitted for a
static screen.
You may easily adjust your video parameters by clicking on the Auto Adjust Video button in the
Manual Video Adjust dialog box, which instructs the DS1800 digital switch or DSR switch to
optimize the video to ideal settings.
A green screen with yellow lettering may appear during auto-adjustment.
Refresh image
Clicking the Refresh Image button in the Manual Video Adjust dialog box will completely
regenerate the digitized video image.
You may also select View - Refresh from the Video Viewer menu to refresh the image.

of a video test pattern. Click the Video Test Pattern button again to toggle back to a normal
