Get Current Timing button – Click to retrieve timing currently stored on the selected output. This allows you
to either apply those settings to other outputs that are connected to similar destination devices or to save the
current timing as a backup before making any modifications.
Apply button – Click to see how well settings work. Sends currently displayed settings to the destination.
Selecting Apply does not store or persist settings. If Apply was just selected and you close the program
without saving any changes in the settings, the program asks whether or not to save the applied settings.
Save button – Click to preserve currently displayed settings on the output connector. Sends displayed settings
to an output to store and persist them in the output's memory. This button also persists the Scaling Override
(Manual) option on the output.
Open File – Select to load the settings from a file to the program.
Save to File – Select to save the currently displayed settings to a file. The file type available depends on the
selected view.
