Automatic video adjustment
NOTE: You may also select Tools - Automatic Video Adjust from the Video Viewer menu or click the Automatic
Video Adjust toolbar icon to automatically adjust the video.
In most cases, you will not need to alter the Video Settings from the default. The system will
automatically adjust and use the optimal video parameters. The DSView management software
performs best when the video parameters are set such that no (0) video packets are transmitted
for a static screen.
You may easily adjust your video parameters by clicking on the Auto Adjust Video button in
the Manual Video Adjust dialog box, which instructs the KVM switch to optimize the video to
ideal settings.
A green screen with yellow lettering may appear during auto-adjustment.
Refresh image
Clicking the Refresh Image button in the Manual Video Adjust dialog box will completely
regenerate the digitized video image.
You may also select View - Refresh from the Video Viewer menu to refresh the image.
Video test pattern
Clicking the Video Test Pattern button in the Manual Video Adjust dialog box will toggle a
display of a video test pattern. Click the Video Test Pattern button again to toggle back to a
normal video image.
Saving the View
The display of a Video Viewer window may be saved to a file or to the clipboard for pasting
into another program.

1. Select File - Capture to File from the Video Viewer menu or click the Capture to File
button. The Save As dialog box appears.
