Creating a New Display Format (Output Mode)
One issue encountered when using graphic sources with VN-Matrix encoders and decoders
is that the encoder often produces a loop-through image stating it has detected a valid input
mode, but the decoder displays a splash screen stating "
No
Matching
Output
Mode
."
Use the following procedure to create a custom display format (output mode) that is
automatically selected by the decoder when it sees a corresponding input mode.
NOTE:
Before starting this procedure, there must be an active input source connected
to a VN-Matrix 2xx encoder (output modes of the VN-Matrix 3xx are fixed) and the
source format must be correctly configured (displayed properly).
1.
Open a Web browser on the control PC and log into the VNM EC 200 (see
on page 11 for information on how to log in).
2.
Duplicate the Web-based user interface of the VNM EC 200 using a second browser
tab.
Leave both browser tabs open
as they are required to complete this procedure.
3.
Click the left tab
(see figure 146,
1
). Select the
Devices
page (

) and choose a
VN-Matrix 2xx series decoder from the device list (

). A checkmark appears in the
checkbox to the left of the decoder row.
