Installation and Operation

Emotia Xtreme MX Front Panel
A. Freeze Button and LED – 
Press the Freeze Button once to freeze the display on a frame, press it again to release the

display. The LED is ON in Freeze Frame mode.

B. Power On LED – This LED is ON if power is applied to the unit.
C. Anti Flicker –  Six levels of anti-flicker are built in. Set switches for minimum flicker. For example, for highest amount of

flicker reduction the anti-flicker switches would be set in the “+” and “3” positions.

D. NTSC/PAL– This switch selects the video standard to be used, NTSC or PAL.
E. Genlock Controls – If using Genlock, the two switches combine to make a coarse phase setting between the video output

signal and the Genlock signal. These switch settings provide for 0º (in phase), or delayed by 90º, 180º, or 270º (both
switches down) after the Genlock signal. The SCØ control is used to "fine-tune" this phase  between Genlock sub-carrier
(color burst) and the output video. The HØ control is used to adjust the phase between the Genlock Sync and the Output
Video Sync. The GENLOCK LED will illuminate when an active reference signal is applied.

F. Memory – Store up to 21 sizing and positioning settings for later recall. To save a setting in memory, press and hold the

STORE button until the STORE LED flashes ON then OFF. Memory settings are recalled automatically when a video signal is
applied with a scan rate matching one for which settings were previously stored. To reset an altered memory setting to the
previously stored position, toggle the NTSC/PAL switch (D). This is only available if the altered settings have not been stored.

G. IMAGE/ZOOM – STD = Underscan, OVER = Overscan, ZOOM = Zoom. With switch in the ZOOM position, use the sizing

controls to adjust magnification up to 200%. H CTR and V CTR controls allow movement within the magnified image.

Horizontal Centering Control – Moves the picture to the left or right on the display screen.
Vertical Centering Control – Moves the position of the picture up or down on the screen.
Horizontal Size Control – This adjusts the width of the picture.
Vertical Size Control – This adjusts the height of the picture.
