Use the Hostlist command to find the number that represents the resolution of
your chosen output display.
To display the host table, use the
HOSTLIST
command, which will produce a list
of output timings for each display’s resolution. Find the resolution of your chosen
display screen, and use the corresponding number with the SETOT command in
the next step.
S T E P 2 : T H E S E T O T C O M M A N D
Use the Set Output Timing command to set the output timing of the first output
channel on the card to that of the display screen you plan to use.
The command is:
SETOT <output #> <host>
Where:
•
<output #>
is the number of the first output channel on the card.
•
<host>
is a number from the host table that represents the output timing of the
display screen (see Step 1 for help finding this number).
S T E P 3 : T H E F R A M E S Y N C C O M M A N D
Issue the Framesync command to synchronize the output timings of both channels
involved in the effect and also of the channel connected to the display to the
timing of the first output channel on that card.
The command is:
FRAMESYNC <master> <slave1>...<slave3>
•Where:
•<master> is the first channel on the card.
•<slave1>...<slave3> are the other channels on the same card as <master>,
including the channel connected to the output display and both channels that
will be involved in the dissolve/force effect. There are up to three slave
channels possible.
E X A M P L E
Suppose you want set up the dissolve or force effect on output display 14, which
is connected to channel 14. You have one window on this display, on channel 15.
You would like to dissolve from channel 15 to channel 16 within this window.
