3. OPERATION 

3.1 Normal Operating Mode 

Figure 3 shows the overall menu structure. In 

Normal Operating Mode

 (Top 4 blocks in Figure 

3.1), the buttons allow the choice of any one of the four inputs connected to the VLS-2000. When 
the VLS-2000 is powered up, it automatically selects the input which was selected when the unit 
was last powered off. Press SELECT or UP to view a different input. The same buttons are 
available on the remote control as on the front panel. 

Press the MENU button to enter 

Setup Mode

 (Bottom 4 blocks in Figure 3.1), which will allow 

changing any control function associated with that input. Press the MENU button again to return 
to 

Regular Operating Mode

 

 

Table 3.1 Basic Menu Stucture 

3.2 Setup Mode 

To change any control function associated with an input, first select the input, and then press 
MENU. This enters 

Setup Mode

 for that input. A second line will appear on the display which 

allows a control function of that input to be changed. Pressing SELECT will choose the next 
control function, and UP and DOWN will change the value of the control function being 
displayed. 

When any change is made to any of the control functions, the result appears immediately on the 
Display System. Once the changes have been completed, the changed values may be saved into 
any one of 3 available 

Presets

. This is accomplished by pressing SELECT until the 

Save

 control 

function appears. Use UP to select 

Preset1

Preset2

, or 

Preset3

. Press SELECT again to save the 

control information in the chosen Preset. To return to factory settings, use the 

Load

 control 

function to load the 

Factory

 Preset, and then use 

Save

 to write these settings into the Preset you 

want restored. 

Figure 3-2 shows the layout of the Setup Menu. Each input (Video, S-Video, and YCrCb) has 3 
available independent presets. This gives a total of 9 independent control function sets, which are 
remembered even if the unit is powered off. The VLS-2000 remembers the last preset loaded or 
saved for each input and automatically reloads it when that input is chosen. This allows the 
maximum flexibility in setting up different control functions for different types of video material. 
At a minimum, each used input needs to have at least one setup saved. The control functions are 
listed below.
