GPI Options

GPI options provide a way to automatically play a project when PowerScript detects a
GPI (General Purpose Interface) signal. See "Working with GPI, Time Triggers, and Auto-
Start" on page 115 for instructions.

Display Parameters

Display Parameters control arrangement and use of your display monitor or monitors.
When you click the Display Parameters option in the SETUP menu, the SETUP:DISPLAY
menu appears.
Monitors—Indicate whether you have 2 monitors in your equipment configuration (that
is, separate Preview and Program monitors), or you have only 1 monitor (the same mon-
itor acts as both the Preview and Program monitors).
EPS Color Adjustment—When you import an EPS graphic file from a computer, the colors
might be overly saturated due to differences in the color ranges supported on computers
as compared to video. Your choice here determines how EPS colors appear for all graphic
files in the EPS directory—not just the file you have selected.

(NORMAL)
100% (NORMAL)—The colors in the EPS file remain unchanged, based on the full
red, green, and blue values.
75%—Adjusts colors to 75% of their original values, thereby reducing saturation to
permissible video values. Whites appear dimmed, so while other colors appear
more natural, whites might appear as shades of gray.
AUTO—PowerScript makes separate adjustments to each color in the EPS file. Col-
ors get reduced 75% to keep them permissible for video, but gray and white values
are not adjusted so as to retain the full brightness of white highlights.
