LED Brightness

This  selection  allows  the  user  to  configure  the  behavior  of  the  Front  Panel  LED  brightness.  
The  ‘normal’  parameter  adjusts  the  brightness  of  the  front  panel  led  when  the  menu  is  being  
navigated.  The  ‘Navigate’  parameter  adjusts  the  brightness  of  the  Front  Panel  LED  during  normal  
usage, when the menu is not being navigated.

User Mode

You  have  limited  access  to  the  output  timing  controls  in  ‘Normal’  mode.  In  ‘Advanced’  user  
mode,  you  have  access  to  the  complete  set  of  output  timing  controls.  Push  the 

q

  button  to  see  

the current setting and the FPD displays either ‘Normal’ or ‘Advanced’ user level.  Push the  

q

button 

again to select the alternate mode. The default setting is ‘Normal’.

On Screen Display Control (OSD)

The User can define how long the OSD is displayed when there is no user interaction. The available 
options are:

•   OSD Off 
•   5 Seconds 
•   10 Seconds 
•   20 Seconds 

•   Toggle 

When “OSD Off” is selected, the menu will not be displayed on screen, although navigation can be 
done  using  the  front  panel  display.  When  “x  Seconds”  is  selected,  the  menu  will  be  displayed  on 
screen,  without  user  interaction,  for  the  respective  amount  of  time.    When  “Toggle”  is  selected,  
the menu will not “time out” and the User must use the “Exit” button to make the menu disappear. 
While in “Toggle” mode, the unit can also be switched into an “OSD Off”/”Toggle” mode by pressing 
the “Menu” button twice. This can be useful while doing display calibration.

Serial Port Rate

The serial port is used by the automation system controllers to control the RS-VP2.  The serial port 
baud rate defaults to 19200 bps, but can be changed using the 

p

 or 

q

 button.

The supported baud rates are:

• 

4800 bps (4.8K)

• 

9600 bps (9.6K)

• 

14400 bps (14.4K)

• 

19200 bps (19.2K)

• 

38400 bps (38.4K)

• 

57600 bps (57.6K)

Factory Default

The Factory Default option allows you to reset all system settings to their factory defaults.

1- press either the 

p

 or 

q

 button. The FPD displays ‘No’. 

2- Press the same button to switch to ‘Yes’. 

3- Confirm this selection by pressing the Enter button. 

NOTE: Resetting the RS-VP2 to the factory defaults will cause all previously saved settings to be lost. 
Record any important settings before performing this action.

Software Update

Use this parameter to install the latest software into your RS-VP2. The latest software is available at 

www.jvc.com/pro

. The website includes complete download install instructions.

 

12V Trigger Level

The state on the 12V triggers can be changed so that the connected device is in the correct state 
when triggered by the RS-VP2.

Output Setup

Analog/Digital Output

The RS-VP2 can output either an analog or digital video signal. The default setting is for the digital, 
HDMI, output to be active. To output to a display with an analog input, insure that this setting is set 
to ‘Analog (BNC)’

 
Output Format

The  current  selected  output  format  will  be  highlighted  in  the  OSD  in  red.  To  select  a  different  
output format, highlight it first and then press the 

u

 button. Adjustment of advanced timing controls  

can  also  be  made  here  although  most  displays  do  not  need  ‘custom’  timing.  The  User  Mode,  in  
the  Configuration  menu,  must  be  changed  to  ‘Advanced’  for  the  advanced  timing  controls  to  
be accessible. For a complete list of the available output presets, see the
