2.5 Connecting Picture Sources Digital and analog computer pictures share a common connector Computer sources Connect computer pictures to the DVI-I connector. This is the standard DVI digital connector, but you can convert it to a 15-pin D-sub for analog computer pictures with the supplied adapter. Computer sources are RGB. Later you will set the Colorspace to RGB in the Picture menu. Video sources Connect composite video pictures to the RCA connector. Connect S-Video pictures to the S-Video connector.
This adapter, supplied in the accessories, converts the DVI input connector to a 15-pin VGA connector. If the Bay Cat is shipped outside the US, the video inputs are disabled.
2.6 Connecting RS232 Communication RS232 control is not necessary for operation, but it is a convenient way to control Bay Cats from a distance. RS232 communication allows a computer to control one or more Bay Cat displays using the computer’s serial port. Almost everything you can do with the remote, you can do with RS232 commands. Plus, you can send inquiries to the Bay Cats and find out the current settings and values.

3.1 Quick Start After you select the picture source, most of the rest of setup is automatic, although you can override the automatic settings and adjust anything manually. Selecting the source means choosing the connector where the picture is coming in. In the case of the Analog/Digital connector, it also means choosing between Analog and Digital.
Burn in vs. image retention Burn-in causes the screen to retain an image essentially forever, with little or no way to correct the problem. Bay Cat does not experience burn-in, as plasma displays do. However, Bay Cat’s can experience temporary image retention. This can happen when a still image—particularly one with high color contrast—is displayed for an extended period, usually over an hour. If this happens, use the internal Test Pattern to display a black screen.
3.2 Operating the Bay Cat The Bay Cat has a cache which saves the last ten source settings. To change sources (input connectors) Press the SOURCE button on the remote. Bay Cat will look for the next connector that has a picture coming in, select that one, and auto adjust to it. corner. You can also disable and enable IR command processing with an RS232 command. Or open the Picture menu and select the source with the left-right arrow keys.

3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments Manual and semi-automatic adjustments are better for most things. Frequency and Phase are all right when done automatically. The manual adjustments fall into several categories. The illustrations below and opposite show the menus and indicate where to go for further information on them. The appearance of the Picture menu depends on the selected source. For details, see “Selecting the Picture” on page 30 The S-Video menu looks the same as the Comp Video menu.
For details, see “Aspect Ratio” on page 44 For details, see “Adjusting Levels, Computer Sources” on page 36 For details, see “Diagnostics, Test Patterns” on page 48 For details, see “Advanced Options” on page 50 29
3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments 3.3.1 Selecting the Picture Selecting the source (picture) manually is usually quicker than using the SETUP button. Selecting the picture is really selecting the input connector. There are three of these connectors: • Analog/Digital Computer • Composite Video • S-Video Computer sources Use Computer connector for either analog inputs, the type we’ve used for years with computers, or digital inputs, the newer DVI standard.
4. Select Phase. Use the right-left buttons to eliminate horizontal streaking. 5. Exit all menus. Digital RGB There are no adjustments for Digital RGB sources. Video sources With Composite and S-Video sources you can adjust Brightness, Contrast, Saturation and Hue. Saturation and Hue are best adjusted using a color bar pattern, if one is available from the source. Scaler Sharpness is similar to the Sharpness control for Analog RGB sources.
3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments 3.3.1 Selecting the Picture 3.3.1.1 Auto or Manual Mode Selection Sometimes the automatic mode selection doesn’t get it right. If this happens, you can force the mode manually. This works for Analog RGB sources only. Auto mode selection • Press SETUP to make the Bay Cat automatically readjust itself to the current picture. • Press SOURCE to make the Bay Cat look for the next connector with a valid signal. There are potential problems with any automatic system.
33
3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments 3.3.1 Selecting the Picture 3.3.1.2 EDID: What It Is and How It Works EDID is the name of a method computers use to determine the characteristics of the computer monitor. EDID stands for Extended Display Identification Data. It is the system behind Plug and Play. But just knowing its name doesn’t tell you how it works.
changes the incoming video to the display’s fixed refresh rate. • Be sure you the EDID for DVI/Analog settings is correct. Some video cards with both analog and digital outputs use only one of them, the one corresponding to what the card read in the EDID. The other output from the card will have nothing. • Uncheck the Plug and Play box and reboot the computer.
3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments 3.3.2 Adjusting Levels, Computer Sources This section applies to Analog RGB (computer) pictures only. The Levels are best adjusted semi-automatically. Why adjust levels? For analog RGB pictures the levels for black and white vary from one computer to another, or from one video processor to another. They even vary between video output from a multiple-output video card in a computer. Your pictures will not look their best on Bay Cat until you adjust for these differences.
37
3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments 3.3.3 Adjust Levels, Video Sources Video sources are adjusted best if a color bar test pattern is available from the video source: the DVD or VCR player. If not, you will have to adjust by eye and the “feel” of the picture. Adjusting with color bars 1. If possible, use a color bar pattern from the video source you will use for the program material. You cannot use the color bar from the Test Patterns menu. 2. In the Picture menu, check Blue Only.
Hue Saturation Match Match Match Match Adjust Saturation so the outside bars match when Blue Only is checked. Adjust Hue so inside bars match when Blue Only is checked.
3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments 3.3.4 Adjusting Sharpness The Sharpness control has two types of sharpness settings, one for in the Picture menu which adjusts the scaler, and one in the Video Adjustments menu, for video sources only, which is in the video decoder. Sharpness for computer sources If you are using analog or digital computer pictures as sources, you will use only the Scaler Sharpness setting in the Picture menu.
41
3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments 3.3.5 Position This moves the picture image on the screen, but does not move the menus. Position In the Image Pan menu, the four arrow keys move the picture. The Horizontal Position number shows the number of pixels from the beginning of H sync to the first active pixel. Because there are many black pixels after H sync, this number will not be zero when the picture is at the left border of the screen.
43
3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments 3.3.6 Aspect Ratio The aspect ratio of any picture is its height divided by its width. H ÷ W = Aspect Ratio The native aspect ratio of the Bay Cat screen is 1.77, which is sometimes referred to as 16:9. This is the HD1920 picture format. 1920 × 1080 pixels 1920 ÷ 1080 = 1.77 Many pictures do not have this aspect ratio. Standard television is 1.33 and HDTV is 1.77. Movies from DVDs vary depending on the original film format, often 1.85.
These are examples of what happens to the picture when the aspect ratio of the source picture does not match the aspect ratio of the display. This will be the case every time the source picture is not HD1920, or some other 1.77 source. SVGA picture (800x600) 1:1 / Keep Original Size Wide-screen picture, Aspect Ratio 1.85 Keep Aspect Ratio/ Fill One Way Wide-screen picture, Aspect Ratio 1.
3.3 Manual Selection and Adjustments 3.3.7 Adjusting Color Balance Color Balance is used to match the colors of adjacent displays when several Bay Cats are arranged in a wall. You may also use it to adjust the color of a single display. For one Bay Cat only If you have only one display, the Color Balance controls can be used to set the color temperature of the single display.
First press of MISC button Second press of MISC button 47
3.4 Diagnostics, Test Patterns These are used for testing and troubleshooting Possibly the most important test pattern is None. This is the one that allows the source picture to show on the screen. All other patterns block the program picture. All test patterns are full screen. Aspect Ratio has no effect. To turn on a Test Pattern 1. Press MONITOR then press ENTER. 2. Select the pattern with the up-down arrows. The up-down arrows will eventually get you to the next column. 3.
None is the only one that does not block the incoming picture. Choose “None” to show the source picture on the screen.
3.5 Advanced Options Menu Options moves the menus to other places on the screen. Auto Adjustment Options sets what will happen automatically and what will not. Menu Options These controls move the menu to a different position on the screen or rotate it for Portrait orientation. Menu Timeout is set here. H Position moves the menus (all of them) left and right on the screen. Use the left and right arrow keys to increase or decrease the distance from the left side of the screen to the left side of the menu.
Auto Adjustment Options • When you press the SETUP button on the remote, each of the checked actions occurs in the order given in the menu. Do Quick Black/White Levels searches for the brightest and darkest pixels in the picture and adjusts to these. Black and White Levels are best done semiautomatically (see “Adjusting Levels, Computer Sources” on page 36) so leave this unchecked. Do Frequency and Do Phase find the frequency and phase (separately) of the computer picture and adjust to them.
3.5 Advanced Options 3.5.1 Miscellaneous Options This menu holds several unrelated settings. Auto Backlight On turns on the backlight whenever AC power is restored. This is normally checked. Curtain Pattern determines what the screen will show when there is no source picture. You have a choice of several solid colors or the Clarity logo. Turn Backlight Off With No Source saves electricity and backlight life. When the source is restored, the backlight turns on again.
53
3.5 Advanced Options 3.5.2 Backlight Control and Status Backlight control can automatically adjust the screen brightness as ambient light conditions change. Backlight control has two options: automatic and or manual. In the manual mode, you adjust the backlight brightness to suit ambient conditions that are not likely to change. In the automatic mode, you let the ambient light determine the image brightness.
When Backlight Control Mode is Manual, the menu looks like this: When Backlight Control Mode is Auto, the menu looks like this: 55
3.5 Advanced Options 3.5.3 Force Analog Mode Sometimes the automatic mode detection process is unable to detect the mode satisfactorily. In these rare cases you can force the Bay Cat to use a particular mode. Mode forcing applies to Analog RGB pictures only. The menu does not work for digital or video pictures. The automatic mode detection works very well almost all the time.
\ Find the mode and its Mode ID number in the three tables starting on page 94.
3.5 Advanced Options 3.5.4 Serial Ports Settings This applies only if you use RS232 commands to control the Bay Cat. If you wish to control Bay Cats remotely with RS232 commands from a computer, read this section. Otherwise, skip it. Bay Cats can be linked together for RS232 using straight-thru 8-conductor cable with RJ-45 connectors. This is the common type of LAN connection cable, not null-modem, sometimes call Cat-5 cable.
59
3.6 Cleaning the Screen The screen is covered with a protective acrylic sheet. Clean the screen with a soft cloth or lint-free paper towel and a mild cleaning solution. Ordinary window cleaning products, such as Windex™, are safe. CAUTION Prevent liquid from running down the screen and leaking into the interior of the Bay Cat. Spray liquids on the cloth or towel, not directly on the screen. CAUTION If you use a cloth towel, be sure it is clean.

4.1 Menu Structures The gray text in menus is for information only. You cannot move the yellow selector to these lines. Some menus change their appearance depending or the source selected or other factors. Picture Source chooses the source (the input connector you want to use) and adjust the picture. Use the +/– keys to select the source. Digital pictures can’t be adjusted. Colorspace is either RGB or YPbPr Frequency and Phase, see “Selecting the Picture” on page 30.
Input Levels To set levels semi-automatically, display a black picture from the source computer. Choose Auto Black Level and press ENTER. Then display a white picture from the source, choose Auto White Level and press ENTER. The Bobcat is now adjusted to the brightest and darkest picture this one source can produce. If you change the computer to a different one, or change the video card in the computer, you should do this adjustment again.
Video Adjustments Scaler Sharpness is similar to the Sharpness control for Analog RGD sources. Video Sharpness is a filter applied to the video picture before it gets to the Scaler Sharpness filter. Blue Only is used with source color bars for adjustment. It is visible only when the source is Comp Video or S-Video. LEVEL key opens the Video Adjustments menu directly, when the source is composite or S-Video.
Position Image Pan moves the image on the screen. SIZE/POS key opens the Picture menu directly.
Aspect Ratio The Bobcat’s aspect ratio is 16:9 or 1.77. This menu decides how to handle source pictures that have other aspect ratios. Fill Both Ways — Picture is stretched in one direction to make it fit. This will cause some distortion, unless the source is 1.77. Keep Aspect Ratio / Fill One Way — Picture is expanded until it reaches the first border (sides or top-bottom). No distortion, but extra space is filled with black.
Message In Picture Recall Last MIP displays (turns on) whichever message last appeared. Timeout range is 0 to 60 seconds and is the length of time before the message will disappear. 0 seconds means there is no timeout, and the message will not automatically disappear. Messages are stored in the Bay Cat only through RS232. See the “MIP Guide” document 077-0004 found at: www.ClarityVisual.
Diagnostics: Test Patterns Move through Test Patterns with the up-down arrow keys.
Diagnostics: Hours System Time is the total time AC power has been applied. Running Time is the total time the lamps have been on.
Diagnostics: Fans & Values Fans OK means all the fans are running normally. Last RS232 Packet Type is usually Operation, but could be Key, Event, String or Error. This is the type of packet most recently received by Bobcat. RS232 Packets Received is the number of messages, not bytes, received. This count goes up to 32767 and then reverts to 0. Rx Buffer Overflows and Errors keeps track of communication problems with received RS232 communications data.
Advanced Options: Menu Options, Auto Setup H and V Position move the menu on the screen, not the picture. Menu Timeout is in seconds. Menus disappear after this time when there is no remote control activity. Zero seconds means menus do not disappear. Menu Rotation rotates the menu for Portrait orientation. It does not rotate the picture. (See also“Advanced Options”, page 50.) MISC opens the Advanced Options menu directly.
Advanced Options: Color Balance Color Balance menu is used to adjust the color of the displays in a wall so they all match. See “Adjusting Color Balance” on page 46 for complete details. Color Temperature is used to pre-set the values to 3200K, 5500K, 6500K or 9500K. Each of these choices sets specific values in the rest of the menu. When Color Temperature is set to Custom, use the White Balance and Gray Balance adjustments to match adjacent displays. See “Adjusting Color Balance” on page 46.
Advanced Options: Misc Options MISC opens the Auto Backlight turns on the backlight soon after AC power is restored. Curtain Pattern is displayed when there is no source. Turn Backlight Off saves lamp life and energy. Ignore RS232 CRC will make the Bobcat accept c-type and byte-type commands, regardless without CRC checking. Enable Image Orbiting moves the image slowly, reducing the possibility of temporary image retention.
Advanced Options: Backlight Control Ambient Light is the light currently in the immediate area of the Bobcat. Backlight Control Mode is either Auto or Manual. Backlight Intensity can be controlled when Backlight Control Mode is Manual. The range is 33 to 100%. In Auto mode, Backlight Intensity is read only. Ambient Threshold is the light intensity below which the backlights go to the Low Intensity setting.
Advanced Options: Force Analog Mode Select Mode Number lets you choose the mode manually. The Enable Force Mode must be unchecked to start. Find the appropriate mode from the table on page 94, and dial it into the Select Mode menu. As the mode number changes, its settings are displayed in the line below. When the desired mode is selected, check Enable Force Mode. Current Mode shows the mode number that the Bay Cat is using now.
Advanced Options: Serial Port Settings Group ID and Unit ID together make up at two-character ID for this Bay Cat. In a group of Bay Cats connected in a series for RS232 commands, each Bay Cat should have a unique ID. ASCII Response Type is Symbolic (ascii words are returned), Numeric (numbers are returned), or Data Only (only the data value is returned. ASCII Response Terminator is the non-printing character or two-character combination that will end each response sent.
