CHAPTER 3 INSTALLATION
3.1 Installing the Video Card and Video Driver
Before connecting the TR-9200 and TR-9300, make sure your computer has a
video card already installed for the monitor. After you connect the drawer, install the
video software driver. The video driver is supplied by the video card manufacturer and
may be found on the CDROM that came with your computer. If you need information
on installing a video card or video driver, refer to the manual that came with your video
card.
3.1.1 Configuring the Display Settings
After connecting the drawer and turning on your computer, you may need to configure
one or more of the following display settings:
²
Display mode (also called desktop area or video resolution)
²
Refresh rate (also called vertical scan rate or vertical sync)
²
Color depth (also called color palette or number of colors)
Each video card has several controls that let you adjust the display settings. However,
the software and driver for each video card is unique. In most cases, you adjust these
settings by using a program or utility provided by the manufacturer of the video card.
Most video cards use the Windows Display Properties control panel to configure the
display. To open the Windows Display Properties, click the right mouse button in a
blank area of the Windows desktop and then select
Properties
. The Settings tab
usually lets you change the Color Palette and the Desktop Area (

pixel
resolution).
Some video cards integrate additional features into the Windows Display Properties
control panel to give you an exceptional setup that is flexible and easy to use. For
example, the control panel may include an Advanced Properties button, an
Adjustment tab, or a Refresh tab for changing other settings. Other video cards have
a separate utility for setting display properties.
Whenever you change the resolution, color, or refresh rate, the image size, position,
or shape may change. This behavior is normal. You can readjust the image using the
monitor on-screen controls. For more information on the monitor on-screen controls,
refer to Chapter 2. For more information on configuring the display settings, refer to
the manual that came with your video card.
