2.4 Function Switches

The CLD-V2600 videodisc player has four physical dip-switches, #1-4, on the rear panel of the player and the CLD-V2400 has two, #1 & 2. (See diagram below.) These are used to set several function parameters after the power is turned on. All switches are UP (OFF) when the players are shipped from the factory. The factory defaults are as follows: Switch 1: Power On/Load Start is OFF; Switch 2: BAUD rate is 4800; Switch 3: SQUELCH is BLUE; Switch 4: Not Used.
