Figure 6: First Video Timing Information Display
An example of the LCD displaying the video timing information is shown in Figure 6. The
information indicates that the left channel is currently receiving a 1280x1024 resolution video
signal operating at 60 Hz. In addition, the letter “D” at the end of the text string indicates that the
signal is digital. In the case of an analog signal, the letter “A” will be displayed in its stead (Figure
7
). The “Mono Clone” message on the right channel indicates that no video signal was detected
on the right eye. The AVCU is currently repeating the left video signal to the right eye.
Figure 7: Second Video Timing Information Display
If a stereoscopic setup is being used, timing information for both eyes will be displayed.
Figure 8 shows and example of the video detection banner. In the example, a DVI signal is detect
on the left channel, as indicated by the “x”.
