4. Configuration

4.1 RS-232 Control and configuration

The TVB200-Plus is ready and fully operational right out of the box
and no customer configuration is normally needed.

However, the RS-232 port provided on the box can be used not only to
make input channel selection, but to adjust a number of the internal
settings of the TVB200-Plus such as default contrast, brightness, and
audio volume parameters.

You can use any ASCII terminal emulation software (such as Windows
Hyper Terminal), or contact Hall Research to obtain a Windows-based
control and setup program for the TVB200-PLUS. You would need a
straight through DB9 Male-to-Female cable for connection to a PC.

For example, when using Windows Hyper-Terminal, do the following:
Use Comm. port 1 or 2 of the PC. Configure for 4800 baud, 8 bits, no
parity, and one stop bit. Set for ANSI emulation, ASCII with no Local
Echo.

4.2 Control Panel Software for Windows

Optional Windows-based
"Control Panel" software is
available for the TVB200-
Plus. The software includes
options for changing the
default brightness, contrast,
audio setup, selecting input
channels, and restoring
factory default settings. If
you are interested, please
contact the Hall Research
ftp site or Tech Support to
obtain a copy. You would need a straight-through DB9 Male-to-
Female cable for connection to a PC.
