    Information About Your AppleVision Display Software

    This document contains important reminders and the latest product information.

    Installation and Setup Tips
    ===========================

    Follow the instructions in the manual that came with your display to install the AppleVision software. Keep the following tips in mind when setting up and working with your display and display software:

    * If you upgrade your system software, you must reinstall the AppleVision display software.

    * With some system software and hardware configurations, your screen may not redraw correctly during the boot process. This will not affect display performance.

    * Changes you make to screen geometry apply only to the display's current resolution. Geometry settings are saved with the resolution.

    Sound and Video Tips
    ====================

    If you purchased a display with speakers and built-in microphone, the following tips may help you:

    * The Sound control panel controls your computer's sound. The AppleVision Setup control panel controls the display's sound. When you make changes to sound input and output sources, be sure to use the appropriate control panel.

    * If you're using system software earlier than version 7.5, your computer may have a long restart time. To improve restart time, change the name of the AppleVision system extension so it installs after QuickTime. (Pick a name that appears alphabetically after "QuickTime.")

    * Whenever you change from an AppleVision display on your computer to a small-screen, fixed-resolution display (14" or less), set the resolution on the AppleVision display to 640x480 before switching off your computer and disconnecting the display. This will prevent scrambled video during the boot process on the small-screen display.

    * If you use the AppleVision display with a Macintosh Quadra 630, Macintosh LC 630, Performa 630, or Power Macintosh 6200 computer, make sure you specify the correct sound input source in the Sound control panel. Choose Line In, not Microphone.

    Notes About Specific Application Programs
    =========================================

    * Some application programs do not properly support resolution changes you make to your display. You may have to close and restart your program for the program to recognize the resolution changes.
