IR Code Set, Lamp Hours, System Reset

IR Code Set

IR Code Set allows the installer to choose from one of four different sets of IR codes. If the default code has commands that are conflicting other equipment, try using one of the other code sets.

When IR CODE SET is selected in the menu, you will get four code set options- 013, 215, 510 and

918.These numbers correspond to the number that is programmed into the remote control itself (see pg. 13). For example, if you wish to use IR code set 510, you would first select '510 code set' from the menu, then program the remote for code 510 (as described on pg. 13). You may also disable the IR receiver on the Controller all together by selecting 'Deactivated'. In the event the Controller has been reset (see 'system reset' below), the IR code set will default to 013.

'Menu/Enter' invert allows the menu and enter buttons on the remote to reverse their functions; if 'YES' is selected, the menu button will become the enter button, and the enter button will become the menu button. This affects the remote ONLY.

Lamp Hours

Lamp Hours displays the number of hours the lamp has been in use. With the VX-1000ci, the lamp life is around 2000 hours. This should be checked periodically to keep track of the lamp's age, and when the lamp is around 1800 hours old, a new one should be installed to prevent lamp failure, including implosion.

At approximately 1900 hours the word "LAMP" will appear on screen indicating that the lamp is near the end of its expected lifespan. Failure to replace this lamp before 2000 hours will result in a system shutdown. Should this occur your projector will need to be serviced by a qualified service technician or at the factory. This is a safety feature to project the light engine from lamp implosion.

System Reset

In the event that your Controller appears to have a software problem, or adjustments have been made so far out of range that the image is no longer on-screen or discernable, you can reset it back to factory values. This sets ALL settings back to factory values, so any adjustments made previously will be lost.

To reset your VX-1000ci Controller, follow this procedure:

•Turn off the MAIN POWER switch on the back of the processor

•Hold down the DOWN ARROW button, and turn the MAIN POWER SWITCH back on. Continue holding the down arrow button until the LED on the front panel blinks, then release the down arrow button. Once this is done, your processor has been completely reset to factory values. After resetting the unit, Composite video will be the active source.

Note: If a system reset is performed, the IR Code Set will default to 013.
