KONA 3 Installation and Operation Manual — Using The KONA 3 Control
Control Tab
Screen
The KONA 3 can be controlled by various software applications running on a host
Mac as well as be used as a Macintosh Desktop extension. The Control Tab is where
you select how the KONA 3 directs video and is used by application software. This
screen also provides control for configuring output timing with regard to external
reference video and horizontal/vertical delay.
At the top of the Control screen it will show the current Default Output and the
application currently controlling the KONA 3 card (if there is one). For example, in
the screen shown here, the default output is the Macintosh Desktop and the only
controlling application is the KONA 3 Control Panel itself.

Default Kona Output—this is where you select what KONA 3 will output as a
default when no application has control of the board, such as when the Finder is
active. Since KONA 3 can be controlled by software applications as well as its own
control panel, the output can change dynamically. When you select many video
applications, they will grab control of the KONA 3 card inputs/outputs. These
settings determine what happens when an application that doesn't grab the KONA 3
inputs/outputs is active.
