ISS 506 Integration Seamless Switcher • Operation
Performing a hard reset
The hard reset function restores the switcher to the base firmware that it was
shipped with. After a hard reset, events do not automatically start, but user settings
and files are restored. Perform a hard reset as follows:

The hard reset restores the factory-installed firmware for a single power cycle.
The switcher reverts to the current firmware the next time power is cycled off
and on unless a firmware update is performed before the power cycle.

Optimizing the Video
Perform the following steps, in sequence, after you have installed the ISS. This
procedure will help you to configure the switcher for the best settings for your
display environment. In a multi-screen environment, perform this procedure for
each display.
See “Advanced Configuration menu”, earlier in this chapter, to select and output a
test pattern and to select and output blue-only video.
See “Adjusting the picture”, earlier in this chapter, to make adjustments to the
picture quality.
See “User Presets menu”, earlier in this chapter, to save presets.
1
. If you are using a digital display, such as an LCD or DLP projector, use the
alternating pixels test pattern as a reference to adjust the phase and dot clock
on the display devices.
If you are using a CRT display, use the cross hatch test pattern as a reference
to converge the display.
2
. Set the ISS to output either the crop test pattern for 4:3 video or the
appropriate aspect ratio test pattern. Use the display’s positioning controls
to position the image so that you can see all sides of the test pattern on the
display.
N
For the best results of this optimizing procedure, do not use the ISS’s center
controls to position the image.
