3. OPERATION
3.1 Normal Operating Mode
Figure 3 shows the overall menu structure. In Normal Operating Mode (Top 4 blocks in Figure
3.1), the buttons allow the choice of any one of the four inputs connected to the VLS-2000. When
the VLS-2000 is powered up, it automatically selects the input which was selected when the unit
was last powered off. Press SELECT or UP to view a different input. The same buttons are
available on the remote control as on the front panel.
Press the MENU button to enter Setup Mode (Bottom 4 blocks in Figure 3.1), which will allow
changing any control function associated with that input. Press the MENU button again to return
to Regular Operating Mode.

3.2 Setup Mode
To change any control function associated with an input, first select the input, and then press
MENU. This enters Setup Mode for that input. A second line will appear on the display which
allows a control function of that input to be changed. Pressing SELECT will choose the next
control function, and UP and DOWN will change the value of the control function being
displayed.
When any change is made to any of the control functions, the result appears immediately on the
Display System. Once the changes have been completed, the changed values may be saved into
any one of 3 available Presets. This is accomplished by pressing SELECT until the Save control
function appears. Use UP to select Preset1, Preset2, or Preset3. Press SELECT again to save the
control information in the chosen Preset. To return to factory settings, use the Load control
function to load the Factory Preset, and then use Save to write these settings into the Preset you
want restored.
Figure 3-2 shows the layout of the Setup Menu. Each input (Video, S-Video, and YCrCb) has 3
available independent presets. This gives a total of 9 independent control function sets, which are
remembered even if the unit is powered off. The VLS-2000 remembers the last preset loaded or
saved for each input and automatically reloads it when that input is chosen. This allows the
maximum flexibility in setting up different control functions for different types of video material.
At a minimum, each used input needs to have at least one setup saved. The control functions are
listed below.
