Video Settings
This.dialog.provides.access.to.all.of.the.key.video.settings.that.determine.image.

Threshold
The.threshold.is.effectively.a.
noise.filter.that.differentiates.
between.valid.video.signals.
and.background.noise.or.
interference..This.has.the.
effect.of.reducing.unnecessary.
video.signals.between.the.
AdderView.CATx.and.the.
remote.system,.thus.improving.
performance..
Phase
The.phase.setting.adjusts.the.
alignment.of.the.host.video.
output.and.the.remote.system.
video.display.to.achieve.the.

Using automatic configurations 
•. Every.setting.can.be.individually.subjected.to.an.automatic.configuration.
(click.the.appropriate.‘Auto’.button).or.can.also.be.manually.adjusted.
•. Use.the.‘Calibrate.All’.button.to.automatically.determine.the.optimum.
settings.for.all.items...
  Note: Before using the ‘Calibrate All’ option, if possible, remove on-screen 
display (OSD) elements generated by the AdderView CATx IP or any other 
connected KVM switches (such as a host name label or menu). These OSD 
elements use different video rates to those of the host system(s) and can 
affect the setting of the automatic threshold value. AdderView CATx IP uses 
an improved calculation procedure to filter out the effect of these elements. 
However, best results are obtained when the screen contains only host 
system information.    
  Note: To maximise performance, the threshold level is automatically 
increased by 50% when a slow link is detected.
  Note: When the AdderView CATx IP is used with one or more other 
switches, the threshold needs to be higher than 32 due to the significant 
amounts of ‘noise’ that these switches introduce. The AdderView CATx IP 
configuration should detect such noise and adjust the threshold accordingly. 
.
Setting the Threshold manually
Occasionally.it.can.be.useful.to.manually.adjust.the.Threshold.setting,.in.order.to.
achieve.a.setting.that.best.suits.your.particular.requirements..
1. Use.the.‘Calibrate.All’.function.to.ensure.that.all.other.settings.are.
optimised.
2. Click.the.Threshold.left.arrow.button.to.decrement.the.setting.by.one.and.
observe.the.‘Display.Activity’.indicator..
3. Repeat.step.2.until.the.Display.Activity.indicator.suddenly.rises.to.a.much.
higher.level.(i.e..50%)..This.will.mean.that.you.have.reached.the.noise.
boundary..At.this.point,.increment.the.Threshold.value.by.2.or.3.points.to.
achieve.an.optimum.setting.
