4.0   FAQ 

The movie picture and sound seem to work fine on my Audio/Video system, but the Message Screen says 
“Searching…” and then nothing happens! 

 

Make sure that your DVD/BD player settings for the Language and Audio Format match the

 

supported format for the 

corresponding Motion Code.  (Refer to section 3.1 for more information on Movie Designation).  Usually, all D-BOX Motion 
Code™ support Dolby 5.1 or DTS 5.1 (when available).  Set your DVD/BD player in

 

Dolby 5.1. 

 

Make sure that your DVD/BD player is not set to output PCM on its digital audio output.  The Motion Controller only works 
with Dolby or DTS signals.  Please refer to your DVD/BD player manual for more information. 

 

Make sure that the DVD/BD movie you’re playing has been coded and is loaded in your controller database.  You can 
search for the movie title in the Movie Index of the controller menu. 

The Motion Seat (or platform) is properly connected in the KineLink port of the Controller, but there is no 
detection on initialization of the controller and the chair does not move! 

 

Make sure your Motion Seat is properly connected, as presented in the 

MOTION CONTROLLER SERIES IV-BD QUICK START 

GUIDE

 provided with your installation kit.  The Motion Seat must be powered by plugging the power cord into an electrical 

outlet.  If you have an electric recliner (optional), there are two power cords! One for the recliner motor, one for the Motion 
actuators. 

Everything is plugged as per the 

MOTION CONTROLLER SERIES IV-BD QUICK START GUIDE

 and I keep getting the 

“Error … No Motion Controller Board Detected” on the Message Screen when I turn it on! 

 

Make sure that the USB cable is properly connected in the back of the Motion Controller (PC3 to Port 1) (Refer to section 
2.0 for System Start-Up procedures).   

 

Try unplugging the Motion Controller from its electrical outlet in order to completely remove any power from it.  Wait a few 
seconds and plug it in again.   

My Motion Controller is hooked-up properly but there is no movement in my seats, only vibrations when the 
movie is playing. 

 

The Motion Controller is probably set on Audio mode.  By pressing the “Cancel” button it will automatically look for the 
appropriate codes in the database (See to section 2.2). 

My Motion Controller is hook-up properly, I can see that it has established synchronization, but nothing is 
happening? 

 

The Motion Controller intensity level is probably set to 0.  Pressing the “UP” or “DOWN” buttons will allow you to adjust the 
intensity level. 

My Motion Controller is not updating automatically. 

 

The Live Update will start automatically only when your Controller is turned On (Power Led is green).  If the system is not 
running all the time, you can force an update in order for the controller to update it’s current database. (See section 3.3.5).   

My Motion Controller is not downloading the motion codes. 

 

The Motion Controller’s IP settings are factory set to DHCP, if a static IP address is needed, please contact your system 
administrator to obtain the information.  (See section 3.3.3). 

 

Make sure that your firewall is not blocking the Motion Controller’s Live Update access to our FTP server.  The Motion 
Controller will show you the movie title, but won’t be able to download it and will eventually give an error message (Update 
failed – 0 Films Added – Please review logs).  

My Motion Controller is showing error : Problem with DSP B Error No: BFFC0830 and the Error indicator is RED. 

 

The Motion Controller USB jumper has been unplugged or damaged. (Look at the back of the motion controller to the PC3 
connection to Port 1).  Press the Power button to shutdown the controller and reconnect the jumper at the back (Please 
refer to the 

MOTION CONTROLLER SERIES IV-BD QUICK START GUIDE)

.  Press the Power button to restart the 

Motion Controller. 

Is the Motion Controller rack mountable? 

 

Middle Atlantic has built a personalised shelf for the Motion Controller.  Part Number is RSH4A3M and it can be purchased 
directly through them.
