Restoring Factory Default Settings 

The Interface Module configuration can be reset to factory defaults.  Resetting to defaults cannot be undone.  If the 
Interface is connected to a PDI-

P19W the default configuration will be optimized for the P19W’s keypad.  It will not match 

the settings that came preloaded onto the Interface. 

1.  Enter the Interface Module Setup Menu (See 

“Understanding Interface 

Module Setup Menus

” earlier in this manual). 

2. 

Select menu “Interface Module SETUP 6/6”. 

3. 

Highlight the “Restore Factory Defaults” item. 

4. 

Press “VOL►” to restore factory defaults.  The operation will happen 
immediately and cannot be undone. 

 

 

 

Operation 

PDI Interface Module 

operation is straight forward once configured. Site installations that involve a secondary “Off Air” 

signal require additional instruction to provide a worry-free patient viewing experience. 

Cable/Satellite TV Operation 

1.  Turn the TV on. A channel from the set top box should be displayed. 
2.  Channel the TV Up or Down. The set top box channel should follow. 
3.  Press the designated Guide button. A channel guide should appear. 
4.  Select a channel from the Guide. The viewed set top box channel should follow the selection. 

 

Off-Air TV Operation (Optional) 

1.  a. If using the TV Tuner for cable/satellite programming, press the control button designated for STB Power (see 

section     

“Programming for Off-Air Non-Satellite Channels Using OFF-AIR RF Pass-Thru”). 

b. If using an input other than RF Tuner for cable/satellite programming, press the TV/AV key repeatedly until the 
TV Tuner source is selected. 

2.  The STB signal should disappear. 
3.  Channel the TV Up or Down.  The TV should now tune the Off-Air channels (non-STB channels). 
4.  a.  If using the TV Tuner for cable/satellite programming, press the control button designated for STB Power 

again. 
b.  If using an input other than RF Tuner for cable/satellite programming, press the TV/AV key again until the 
cable/satellite box source is selected. 

5.  The Off-Air channel should disappear and be replaced with a cable/satellite channel.
