SYSTEM FIRMWARE SETUP

Now that all the sources and cables are connected, the processor’s firmware needs to be setup for the installation. Be sure to go through the Setup menu before doing the final setup of the display.

When the unit is first plugged in it will go through an initializing procedure and display the output resolution. Do not send any commands to the unit during this initialization period. Once this initialization is completed the unit is instant-on.

Note: All display devices have specific setup steps that must be completed to insure proper operation with the DVP1500 and other sources. Be sure to carefully follow those instructions as well as the instructions for this processor.

To enter the Setup menu, press the setup key on the front panel. Setup Functions can only be viewed on the front panel LCD, not from the OSD.

Press the Function Up or Down to select the available Functions. Press the Value Up or Down keys to change values or to select options.
