Handling of sources

· horizontal and vertical sync polarity (for separate sync only)

· the type of sync (separate sync, composite sync or sync on green)

These values are compared with a list of pre-programmed sources. If the parameters match,

all settings (also stored in the table) for this match will be loaded and activated.

If the souce is not found in the table of pre-programmed sources, the PA-converter will

guess the resolution based on the picture contents and the number of vertical lines in the

picture. It will then try to auto-setup all necessary settings on its own. Sometimes the PA-

converter will not be able to set the best settings (especially if the desktop background is

dark, or if it’s an odd resolution), and may need manual help from the user. See Manual

Setup in Part II (Using the PA-converter), chapter B.1 (On Screen Display/Source setup).

The PA-converter will NOT store new source settings automatically. When you are pleased

with the settings, you should store the source in the list of pre-programmed sources (the

OSD menu will ask if you want to store when leaving the menu). This makes it easy for the

PA-converter to load the correct settings the next time it detects this source.
