Command entry procedure:
• Put player in standby.
• Press the keys on the remote for the command you wish. For instance to Turn
User Prohibitions On, press 2 and then press Audio Change.
• Power machine up again.
It is important to realize that the command entry procedure must be completed after 1
command entry, ie Standby – Command – Power Up.
So for instance, if your player is currently in auto region selection mode and you want to
select Region 4 manually, you need to change the player to manual region select mode
first and then change region to 4.
Here is an example if you wanted to switch the player to manual region selection and
select region 4.
• Put player in standby.
• Press 0 Then Audio Change (for manual region select)
• Power machine up
Your player is now in manual region select mode.
• Put player in standby again
• Press 4 and then press Enter
• Power up machine again
• Play your Region 4 film.
All previous commands will be stored and executed, as long as your player is connected
to mains. If you unplug it, the player will switch to its default settings.
The selected region code is visible in the Service Menu: Put the player into standby mode
and then enter, in series, Title – Clear – Power On (This brings up the engineer’s/service
menua) and then no 4 on the menu. Do not enter the other pages of the service menu.
User Prohibitions
– Please remember that user prohibitions disabled does not mean you
will not see the FBI logo at all, it just allows you to scan / FF through it. FBI Logos are
present on Region 1 films only.
There are two forms of FBI Logo:
1. A Still Frame – This is a pre determined pause, which can vary on time scale
from title to title that cannot be skipped through (Usually a black background).
This is part of the DVD and cannot be skipped through.
2. A video stream – This is seen by the player as a mini chapter, and can be
skipped through with the Techtronics multimod (Usually a green background) if
you have user prohibitions disabled.
