1. 1 3 1 5 Equipment and 2 0 1 4 An Overview 1 An Overview 1 1 How to Read the Manual The system is to produce various kinds of output signals for CRT amp LCD to display a series of particular patterns in adjustment and inspection Before using the system you have to understand the input signals of a monitor and its methods of wiring roughly In operating the system if you can connect a VGA or Multi Sync monitor to the output of the system you will watch the change of output signals on the screen at the same time and thus get a better effect Suggestions on Reading 1 First read the names and definitions of the basic timing graphs on 2 1 2 Then read the arrangements of the front and back panels on 2 2 If the monitor mentioned above is ready you can connect the R G B H V output by the analog of the system to the input side of the monitor and then power on 3 Operate by yourself according to the steps described on 2 3 and output the signals to the monitor until the patterns appear according to the explanations on 2 4 4 Read Chapter 3 carefully in order to modify any parameter at will and understand its meaning Do not change arbitrarily the pixel rate MHz and H total in Timing Format on 3 1 otherwise the monitor will be damaged because of too high horizontal frequency 5 If there is
