Vidikron VERSION 50 - Manual (Page 44)

44 Vidikron Vision Model 50 Owner’s Operating Manual
On-Screen Display Menus
Select Fan Control from the Service Menu to control the operation of the projector’s
cooling fan.
Mode: In most cases, the default Fan Control Mode (Auto Normal) will maintain the correct
operating temperature. If the lamp frequently turns off due to overheating, or in certain
high-altitude operating environments, you may need to change this setting to Auto Hi.
Altitude or Manual.
Fan Speed: If you set the Fan Mode to Manual, select Fan Speed and use the on-screen
slidebar to adjust the speed.
After changing either of these settings, press EXIT to return to the previous menu.
When you replace the projector lamp, you should also reset the lamp timer. To do this, select
Lamp Reset Timer from the Set Up menu. Press the right-arrow button on the remote to
highlight “Yes,” then press ENTER to confirm the reset.
NOTE: Reset the Lamp Timer ONLY after you replace the lamp. Otherwise, the reported “Lamp
Hours” will be inaccurate.
WARNING! Do not exceed the recommended lamp life of 2000 hours. An old lamp becomes
increasingly fragile and prone to sudden failure.
Press the ▲ or ▼ arrows to select the projector’s RS-232 Baud Rate. This function is used
to change the transfer rate of the RS-232 connection. (This setting must match the data
rate of the device connected to the RS-232 input.)
The Remote Control menu shows you the primary and secondary infrared (IR) codes assigned
to the Vision Model 50. The Primary IR code is permanently set to +20. The secondary IR
code is also +20.
You can change the secondary IR code if either:
•
Another device in the theater (a DVD player, for example) is responding to commands
from the Model 50 remote control in ways that are unpredictable or undesirable.
• You have multiple Model 50 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.
When you change the secondary IR code, the remote sends that code instead of the
primary IR code.
NOTE: The Remote Control menu is read-only and need not be visible in order to change the
secondary IR code.
To simultaneously change the secondary IR code and
synchronize that remote with a projector, point the remote at
the projector, then press and hold
◄ and ► simultaneously
for five seconds. The Remote Control edit window, shown at
right, appears. Type a new, two-digit code.
The procedure for changing the secondary IR code on the remote only is the same, except
that you point the remote away from the projector.
To exit the Service menu, use the up- or down-arrow buttons to highlight Return to User
OSD and press ENTER.
To return to the Service menu, select it from the Main Menu, press ENTER twice, then press
MENU on the remote control. (You do not need to re-enter the passcode.)
