4.6 Setting Some Conditions
Here are the settings you can change to suit your application.
Press
MENU
, select Misc Options and press
ENTER
to
open the Misc. Menu. To change any item, highlight
it and press
ENTER
.
Lamp Control is discussed in “Controlling the
Lamps” on page 74. It should normally be left on.
Test Patterns are discussed in “Test Patterns” on
page 88.
Curtain Color is described in “Curtain and Its Col-
ors” on page 86.
Baud Rate in kilobytes per second, is the data rate
that the RS232 Input and Output ports use. This
does not matter if you are not using RS232 con-
trol. The correct rate, matching the computer’s
rate, must be set in each display manually with
this menu. The RS232 port does not automatically
detect the incoming rate, as modems often do. See
“Controlling the Displays with RS232” on page 92
for more information.
! The rate set in this menu does not effect the baud rates
for the Trace and Load Data connectors. These are
always 115.2 Kbps.
Address Select sets the RS232 address of this display
display. This does not matter if you are not using
RS232 control. This is the only place where you
can set the RS232 address. If you do not use
RS232 control, this address does not matter. If you
do use RS232, see “Controlling the Displays with
RS232” on page 92 and “Sending RS232 Com-
mands” on page 94 for a complete description of
the system and its protocol.
Mode Detect
See a complete discussion in “What Mode Detect
Does” on page 62.
IR Disable
Press
MISC
seven times to open the IR Disable
menu. If you select Yes and press
ENTER
, the menu
disappears and almost all remote control buttons are
disabled. This is useful to prevent accidental changes
to the settings. The Lamp Off button will still turn
off the lamps in this condition, and when they are
turned back on, IR is not disabled.
To enable IR control again without having to turn
off and on the lamps, press
ENTER
. The IR Disable
menu opens with the highlight on No. Press
ENTER
again, and all remote buttons operate normally.
Triple beep
The Panther will triple beep if you try to give it a
command from the remote control that it cannot do.
For instance, pressing
MENU
with the lamps off will
produce a triple beep. Some of the triple-beep signals
will happen even when the Beeper is off.
! To make a selection in a menu that has a red dot move
the highlight to your choice and press
ENTER
.
Sharpness: The default conditions is on for ana-
log sources, and that’s the best. It is grayed
out for digital video sources where it would
have no effect. When Sharpness is off, the pic-
ture goes through a low pass filter.
Beeper: When this is on, the system beeps every
time a button is pressed, and beeps continu-
ally when a button is held down. When Off,
the system only beeps for three conditions:
• Lamp On command from the remote
• Lamp Off command from the remote
• (See also Triple beep on this page.)
Horz Flip reverses the image left and right when
you press
ENTER
. It is usually set to Norm, but
you can change it to Flip if you need to.
Auto Lamp, when on, starts to strike the lamps
very soon after AC power is acquired, without
waiting for a Lamp On command. In most
applications for Panther, it is best to leave it
off. If AC power is lost, the lamps are ignited
soon after it power is restored. If Auto Lamp is
Off, the system waits for a command from the
remote or from RS232 before igniting the
lamps.
