Sorry for my rubbish explanation :). When the GS outputs different res
the highway unit will blank out the screen and display something like
resyncing/signal lost (have to dig it out to test exact message) then
after a few seconds will display the picture. The best test is from GS/
OS to a CDA. On a normal CRT it would be instant change, on the
highway unit the screen goes blank for a bit as it resyncs the signal.
