    a Resolution Mode field has appeared stating NEW. If there is insufficient
    memory available you will be prompted to delete any unwanted entries from the
    library of computer cards to make room for the new card. If you enter a name that
    already exists a confirmation message will appear stating - Duplicate computer
    card name - Press OK to Edit. Select OK to duplicate the name and enter the
    MODE PARAMETERS window or CANCEL  to return to the Computer Name
    window in order to enter a different name.

    duplicate will be made using the same name but with an asterix ( 
    *) at the end.
    The next step is to set the new computers Resolution Mode, this is done by 
    selecting CREATE/MODIFY. The MODE PARAMETERS window will open
    (see below) and you should enter the following information.
    Mode Name - Name the set of mode parameters.
    Scan Rates- Enter the scan rates stated in your computer card specifications.
    Sync Polarity- Defines the polar values for the horizontal and vertical syncs as
    stated in your computer card specifications.

    vertical size and position.
    Active pixels - In these fields define the number of active pixels across the display
    and the phase of each pixel from the start of one pixel period to the end.

    							After entering the required information select OK, a confirmation box will appear
    stating Computer graphics card will be created/updated. Press OK to proceed or
    CANCEL to ignore. Select OK to save the new mode.
    MODIFYING AN EXISTING COMPUTER CARD MODE
    Having selected an existing computer card it is possible to modify a specific mode
    for that card. After selecting the mode to be modified from the resolution mode
    fly-out list you will enter the MODE PARAMETERS window. The computer and
    mode names will be displayed along with the previously defined parameters.
    When all the changes have been made press the OK button to execute the changes.
    A confirmation box will appear stating- Computer/Graphics Card will be Updated.
    Press OK to proceed or CANCEL to ignore. This is your last chance to cancel the
    changes to the mode.
    DELETE Command
    It is possible to delete a single mode contained within a Computer Card or all the
    modes contained within a card effectively deleting the complete card. Deletion of a
    Computer Card takes place in the Add Computerscreen as the most likely reason
    for deleting a card is that there is insufficient  memory available to add a new card.
    Only Computer Cards you have created are valid for deletion, factory supplied cards
    cannot be deleted. NEW is also an invalid option as it represents a card which has
    still to be created, therefore cannot be deleted. If you try to delete an invalid card a
    message box will appear advising you that the card you have selected cannot be
    deleted.
    Whether deleting all modes or a single mode from a Computer Card the first step is
    to select the card from the fly-out menu in the Add Computer screen using the
    remote control. Assuming you have selected a valid Computer Card selecting
    DELETE from the screen options will open the DELETE COMPUTER window.

    If a New computer signal is applied when the selected channel is configured for
    computer and the computer signal does not identify a mode which matches, the
    screen will display an image using default Size, Position, Number of Pixels, Pixel
    Phase and Aspect Ratio. These default parameters will be supplied from ROM. A
    message will also appear stating- New Mode will be lost if not saved or if Channel
    is changed.
    The display will then have to be adjusted manually to give an optimum image.
    These default parameters will be applied to the Revised Store. See Storing System
    Configurations.
    If SAVE is then pressed on the remote or “Save” is selected in the menu system and
    there is insufficient memory to store a new mode, a message box will be overlaid
    stating- Cannot create Computer Mode due to insufficient Memory.  Need to delete
    an unwanted COMPUTER Entry from the library of Computer Cards. Go to ADD
    COMPUTER Dialogue in Menu. (New Mode will be lost if Channel is Changed.)

    							Configuring a Video Channel
    1. Set Gamma in Image Mode to Preferred Value
    2. In the Channel Set-up Menu select the correct input, aspect ratio, colour 
    temperature and format (i.e. PAL, NTSC, SECAM, S-Video, Component RGB 
    or Component Y Pr Pb).
    3. Using either the Size & Position sub menu or the single press remote control 
    buttons, adjust the size and position until the image fills the screen exactly.
    4. Apply a Pluge Test Pattern (or a test signal or tape which has near blacks and 
    near saturated whites).
    5. Using the single press buttons on the remote control adjust the Brightness so that 
    the -2% bar disappears but the +2% is still visible. If using a tape, adjust the 
    Brightness up and then down until the darkest part of the tape stops getting any 
    darker.
    6. Adjust the Contrast upwards so that the white bar of the Pluge pattern or a 
    saturated piece of tape is just saturating and then reduce again until this stops.
    7. If using an NTSC source adjust the Hue to give correct colours.
    8. Adjust Saturation to taste (50% is usually acceptable).
    Saturation will have no effect on RGB sources.
    9. Adjust Sharpness to taste.
    Phase has no effect on video sources.

    Configuring a Computer Channel
    1. Set Gamma in Image Mode to Preferred Value
    2. In the Channel Set-up Menu select Computer Source and Colour Temperature.
    3. Apply intended computer input.
    4. Select Size & Position.
    5. The cursor should be over the correct rate mode, press ENTER.
    6. Set Pixels to equal the number of pixels per line in the signal source.
    7. Define the aspect ratio as 4 x 3.
    8. Adjust the Horizontal and Vertical Size until beating patterns minimise or 
    disappear (use an alternate pixel pattern from Paintbrush to emphasise errors).
    9. Some Horizontal bars may remain, remove them by adjusting the Pixel Phase.
    No Vertical Size adjustment should be required for a Raw source.
    10. Adjust the Position to centre the image on the DMD™ display.
    11. Use Pluge as per the Video channel set-up (previous page) to set up the 
    Brightness and Contrast.
    Computer outputs cannot have negative values and therefore computer pluge bars
    are +2% and +4% and should both be visible. An acceptable set-up pattern can be
    created using Paintbrush.
    Sharp, Hue and Saturation will have no effect on computer sources.
