CIA100 Operation Manual - V1.3 01/03/01 ©2001 - INLINE, Inc.
MONITOR EMULATION
The factory default setting for the CIA100 is Monitor Emulation Enabled. If the application
requires a local monitor, make sure that the front panel Monitor Emulation LED is OFF (press
the MONITOR EMULATION Button to toggle between enabled / disabled). If no local monitor
is necessary, make sure the Monitor Emulation LED is ON.
OPTIMAL SETTINGS FOR LCD / DMD / D-ILA / PLASMA DISPLAYS
Output Sync Format - All CIA100 Series Interfaces feature advanced sync processing circuitry
that offers superb compatibility with a wide range of display devices. The CIA100 has been
designed (and extensively tested) to provide excellent operation when set for RGBHV, RGBS and
RGsB output signal formats. However, some display devices most readily identify and display
VGA-type signals when they are in the RGBHV signal format. For this reason, users may achieve
optimal compatibility and more consistent results when the interface is set to the factory default
output sync format of RGBHV (see Dipswitch Settings on page 7).
Horizontal Position Control - The CIA100 horizontal position control utilizes a new circuit
design that provides excellent image quality and greatly enhanced compatibility with a variety of
data display technologies. However, in rare cases, instability in parts of the displayed image may
still occur (depending on the design of the display device’s sync circuitry). Adjusting the data
display’s fine phase or auto phase adjustment will usually alleviate the problem. If problems
persist, users may wish to disable the CIA100 horizontal position control (see page 7).
