Command
Description
Values
FMD <0 | 1>
Enables or disables automatic film mode (cadence). If disabled, it
forces de-interlacing instead.
This command is only available if video electronics are on and the
signal is interlaced. (Saved value)
0 = Turns off film mode
detection
1 = Turns on film mode
detection (Default)
Examples
Enable film mode detection:
(FMD 1)
FRD–Frame Delay
Sets the delay between the input sync timing and the output sync timing.
The actual delay can vary based on the amount of processing applied to the image.
Commands
Command
Description
Values
FRD <delay>
Sets the frame delay, measured in 1/1000ths of a frame (based on
the input frame rate). This command is only available if video
electronics are on. (Saved value)
1000 to 3000
2000 = 2 frames (Default)
FRD+STAT?
Returns the actual frame delay in 1/1000ths of a frame. This value
may be higher than the required delay as the minimum allowed
delay differs for each of the various channel configurations. (Read-
only)
—
FRD+TIME?
Returns a string representation of the actual frame delay, in
milliseconds. If 3D processing is used, the left and right eye delay
may be different from each other and each delay is reported
individually. (Read-only)
Note: This representation in milliseconds is approximate and is for
reference only.

Examples
Query the actual frame delay:
(FRD+STAT?)
Result:
(FRD+STAT!1250)
Query the actual frame delay, in microseconds:
(FRD+TIME?)
