Quadro Sync DU-06574-001_v01 | 8
FRAME LOCK CONFIGURATION
Frame Lock synchronizes all the selected displays in a system and across systems in a
cluster. A single display is selected as the timing master and the Quadro Sync boards
will adjust all the other displays to synchronize with it. This operation may take a few
minutes.
CONNECTING NODES IN A VISUALIZATION CLUSTER
If using the multi-node synchronization features of Quadro Sync the nodes in the cluster
will need to be connected together. Connecting the nodes require CAT-5 Ethernet cables
that are not included. It is recommended that you use high quality cables, using the
shortest length possible for your installation. Do NOT use Ethernet hubs or switches to
branch or extend the signal. Quadro Sync is not compatible with TCP/IP protocols and
the board will not operate if it connected to networking equipment.
CAUTION: Do not connect the Quadro Sync board to TCP/IP networking equipment.
Choose one node as the timing master, the machine that will control the timing on all the
others. For clusters using active stereo it is recommended that the timing master also
drive the stereo sync output. From the timing master, connect a CAT 5 cable between the
Frame Lock connectors on the timing master and a client machine, it does not matter
which connector you use. It is recommended to create two signal chains off the timing
master like in the following diagram (Figure 5).
