Control software for easy control and setup

Lightwareâ€™s input signal analyzer function makes possible to determine the exact video format that is sent by the source, thus helps to identify many problems. For example the actual timing parameters may differ from the expected and this may cause some displays to drop the picture.
The signal analyzer measures the detailed timings on the matricesâ€™ incoming video signals just like a built-in oscilloscope, but it is much more easy to use. The parameters are displayed on an intuitive graphical interface.
