6.1 

Engineering Page Entry 

 

Press the Select button and hold in, followed by the Down (

) button.  Keep both buttons depressed for 5 

seconds until all six yellow standard LEDs become illuminated simultaneously. This indicates that the 
decoder has entered the Engineering Page. 

 

6.2 

Engineering Parameter Selection and Adjustment 

 
Scroll around the five parameters using the Select button. The engineering parameter functions may be 
switched ON and OFF by using the Up and Down (

 and 

) buttons respectively.  Engineering parameters 

are defined as:-

Depress the + and - buttons for 5 seconds for 

Factory Initialisation

 of all parameters 

in all standards (except timing parameters, which may be normalised within the timing 
page).  After successful Factory Initialisation the decoder will automatically resume 
normal front panel operation. 

 

(1)  NTSC or NTSC Japan selection is only available when in the NTSC standard setting. 
 
(2)  See  Section 

8.4  An  Introduction  to Vislock Processing

  for a description of the  VisLock processing 

option. This control is available only if the VisLock option has been factory fitted to the card. 

 
(3)  Use the Up and Down (

 and
