Menu Item Description Setting(s)
Group ID
Unit ID
Group ID and Unit ID together make up at two-character ID for
this Bay Cat X. In a group of Bay Cat Xs connected in a series
for RS232 commands, each Bay Cat X should have a unique
ID.
0-9 and A-Z
ASCII Response Type 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 ASCII Response Terminator is the non-printing character or
two-character combination that will end each response sent.
This is useful for getting your particular host program to display
returned commands on separate lines. Windows type systems
normally work best with CR + LF. UNIX and LINUX type sys-
tems often want only LF. Any combination of terminations can
be sent to the unit regardless of this setting.
CR – ASCII code 13
(carriage return) only
CR +LF – ASCII code
13 followed by ASCII
code 10 (line feed)
LF + CR ASCII code
10 followed by ASCII
code 13
LF ASCII code 10 only
Baud Rate Baud Rate must match the baud rate of the host computer. 1200 - 19200

Auto Setup Options
Menu Item Description
The checked events in Auto Setup Options occur when
• the input changes, such as from XGA to UXGA
• a new source is selected
• you press the
SETUP button.
Retry on Lost Signal Retry on lost signal, when checked, means the unit will attempt to find a different signal when it
detects a change in syncs. This should normally be checked. If a signal is very noisy, you may
want to uncheck this box to avoid the image flashing when it receives bad syncs. However, when
unchecked, the unit will never detect when a signal goes away or changes to a different resolu-
tion. (sync).
Do Black/White Levels Do Quick Black/White Levels automatically adjusts the lightest and darkest pixels to be white
and black. This fully automatic method is prone to small errors in the white level. Semi-automatic
level adjustment is better. For more information, see “Adjusting Levels for Analog Computer
Sources” on page 28.
Do Frequency Automatically adjust the frequency, phase, and position, respectively, of the image to optimal val-
ues based on the image it detects. If the incoming image is all black at the time it is first received,
the unit will not be able to make these settings effectively. It must have some content to work with
to adjust frequency and phase and it must have an edge to edge non black image to adjust posi-
tion.
