ServiceUse the Service menu to access advanced projector configuration settings. This menu
should be used by ISF-certified technicians only.
Test Video: Select Test Video from the Service Menu to access the internal test patterns
on the VX-2. Four patterns are available, consisting of white/gray or colored bars.
Press MENU to exit test pattern mode.
Input Names: You can give each DHD Controller input a descriptive name. For example,
you may want to change the default input name to the type of source component
connected to it: “VCR,” “DVD,” “Laptop” et cetera. Composite, S-Video and Component
SD input names can be up to 12 characters long; the others can be up to eight characters
long.
To edit an input name, select Input Names from the Service menu. Press or to select
an input and press ENTER. Use the or buttons to change a character; press or
to select a character to change. When you have finished editing the input name, press
MENU.
To restore the default input name, press repeatedly to highlight that input name in the
“Restore” column. Then, press ENTER.
To save input names so that they can be restored after a System Reset (described on
page 51), press repeatedly to highlight “Save.” Then, press ENTER.
Remote Control: The Remote Control menu shows you the primary and secondary
infrared (IR) codes to which the VX-2 will respond. By default, both are set to 17. You can
change these codes if either:
• Another device in the theater (a DVD player, for example) is responding to commands
from the VX-2 remote control in ways that are unpredictable or undesirable.
• You have multiple VX-2 projectors and want to control them independently, as
opposed to broadcasting commands from a single remote to all of them. In this
scenario, you can use multiple remotes programmed to use different IR codes. Or, you
can use a single remote and change the IR code as needed to address a specific
projector.
