Confi guring Frame Sync Using the
nvidia-settings Command Line

You can also con

gure frame lock using the

nvidia-

settings

command line. This method is useful in a scripted

environment for automating the setup process.

General Steps

1. Disable frame lock on all Quadros.

2. Make sure all display devices that are to be frame-

locked have the same refresh rate.

3. Con

gure which Quadro/display device is to be the master.

4. Con

gure the house sync (if applicable).

5. Con

gure the slave display devices.

6. Enable frame lock on the master Quadro.

7. Enable frame lock on the slave Quadros.

8. Test the hardware connections using the

test signal on the master Quadro.

Sample Confi gurations

Use the examples in this section as a guideline. The exact scripts
that you use will depend on your hardware con

guration.

For a full list of the

nvidia-settings

frame lock

attributes, see the
