selecting PSM192 inputs

To select the external composite video input to PSM192, press shift then 1 on the system remote. The front panel display will show “PSM192” on the large display area and “composite” on the lower dot matrix area when the external composite video input is selected, the “composite” text will remain on the dot matrix area of the display as long as the composite input is selected.

To select the external S-Video video input to PSM192, press shift then 2 on the system remote. The front panel display will show “PSM192” on the large display area and “S- Video” on the lower dot matrix area, the “S- Video” text will remain on the dot matrix area of the display as long as the S-Video input is selected.

To select the internal DVD connection press shift then 3 on the system remote. The front panel display reverts to its normal operation.

4:3 mode for 16:9 displays

The PSM192 has a special mode to display 4:3 video signals on a 16:9 widescreen display. If your display is configured as 16:9 in the player menus, you can use the PSM192 to add black bars at the sides of 4:3 images so that they are centred within your 16:9 display. This is controlled by pressing shift then display on the system remote, press them once to turn on the black bars for 4:3 input signals, press again to remove them for 16:9 input signals. The external composite and S-Video inputs have black bars active by default (i.e. they expect a 4:3 input by default), press shift then display to turn the bars off if the input signal is 16:9.

advanced control with AV32R(1)

The PSM192 has many advanced options which can be controlled via a TAGtronic connection between DVD32FLR and AV32R. These include individual black level (brightness), white level (contrast), colour and hue (NTSC only) picture settings for each video source. The picture settings may be applied automatically whenever the associated source is selected on the AV32R. The AV32R can also control the PSM192 to automatically select the PSM192 external composite or S-Video input when composite or S-video sources are selected on AV32R, two connections between the AV32R composite and S-video outputs and the PSM192 composite and S-video inputs then allow you to obtain progressively scanned output for all your video sources.

software upgrades distributed via the internet

One of the most flexible aspects of DVD32FLR is that the software is stored in re- programmable memory. The software can be upgraded using a PC connected via the TAGtronic Communication Bus.

Details of our future upgrades will be published on our website, www.tagmclaren.com, and the updates themselves will be downloadable for user installation via a PC.
