7 Using the MAKE/TRIG. system

The RS-485 IN terminal is confi gured as follows. You can assign the functions to each pin terminal by setting “REMOTE
SYSTEM” (see “PORT F1 – PORT F5” on page 27).

To assign the functions to the pin terminals

For the operation procedure, see page 19.

1. Select “REMOTE SYSTEM” on the set-up menu.

2. Set “CNT. RJ45 IN” to “SET.”

3. Select a pin name (“PORT F1” – “PORT F5”) which you want to assign a function, and then select the function you

want to assign.

• For functions which can be assigned, see the table below.

– – – No function — —

NOTE

• You cannot assign the same function to diff erent pin terminals.

• The TRIG. (trigger) system switches each function by short-circuiting for approx. 1 second.

Operation

1. Short-circuit the 6th pin terminal (External control) to the 8th pin terminal (GND) so that the monitor can be

controlled by the external control.

2. Set “CNT. RJ45 IN” of “REMOTE SYSTEM” to “MAKE” or “TRIG.” on the set-up menu.

3. When selecting “MAKE” (make contact) system:

Operate each function by short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to the 8th pin terminal (GND) or opening it.

When selecting “TRIG.” (trigger) system:

Operate each function by Pulse control, that is short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to the 8th pin terminal
(GND) for about 1 second.

NOTE

• When controlling INP. A/B/C/D/E/F, only one terminal must be short-circuited. (Other terminals must be opened.)

• When switching PIP and PBP modes, open the mode which has been shortcircuited before shortcircuiting the mode you want to make valid.

• When selecting the “TRIG.” (trigger) system, you can operate only one function at a time. Operate the functions one by one.

Troubleshooting (cont.)

Self-diagnostic indication

When something abnormal occurs with the monitor, this function informs you of the condition of the monitor with the self­diagnostic lamps, allowing for smooth service work.

If the monitor screen turns off and the self-diagnostic
lamps light or fl ash

If the self-diagnostic lamps light or fl ash in red, check the following
before consulting the dealer where you purchased the monitor.

• If the self-diagnostic lamp 1 (upper) fl ashes, lamp 2 (middle)
lights, and lamp 3 (lower) fl ashes

This may be caused by the dusty intakes on the rear. If this

happens, switch off the main power using the POWER switch
(set to “‡ (off )”), unplug the AC power cord, then clean the
intakes by referring to the instruction on page 5.

After cleaning, switch on the monitor’s main power again. If

the self-diagnostic lamps do not go off , consult your dealer
immediately.

If the monitor screen dims a little and “TEMP. OVER”
appears (or fl ashes)

If “TEMP. OVER” appears or fl ashes at the right bottom of the
screen, check the following before consulting the dealer where
you purchased the monitor.
“TEMP. OVER” appears to warn you of internal heat buildup, which
is usually caused by accumulated dust around the intakes or by
improper installation. If the cause of the internal heat buildup is
eliminated, this indication disappears and the screen returns to
normal brightness.

• If “TEMP. OVER” fl ashes in yellow

This may be caused by the dusty intakes on the rear. If this

happens, switch off the main power using the POWER switch
(set to “‡ (off )”), unplug the AC power cord, then clean the
intakes by referring to the instruction on page 5.
– After cleaning, switch on the monitor’s main power again.

If “TEMP. OVER” still fl ashes, this problem may be caused by
improper installation or improper location of the monitor.
In this case, consult your dealer immediately to solve this
improper installation and to improve the circumstances
around the monitor.

• If “TEMP. OVER” appears in red

“TEMP. OVER” will be shown for about two minutes, the monitor

will shut off automatically, then the self-diagnostic lamps light in
red. If this happens, switch off the main power using the POWER
switch (set to “‡ (off )”), unplug the AC power cord, then consult
your dealer immediately.

If the trouble still persists, follow the procedure below:

1 Check which lamps are lit or fl ashing.

On the Self-diagnostic Report Sheet (below), check the box
next to “Lights” or “Flashes” of the corresponding lamp or
lamps.

• Only one lamp may light or fl ash, or all three lamps may do
so.

2 Switch off the POWER switch on the back of the

monitor.

3 Unplug the power cord.

4 Call your dealer and tell them which lamps are lit or

fl ashing. (Copy and fax the Self-diagnostic Report
Sheet below.)

NOTE

• If you switch on the main power immediately after switching it
off (or after recovering from a brief power interruption), the self­diagnostic lamps may light (or fl ash), and no image may appear
on the screen. In this case, switch off the main power again, wait
for about 10 seconds, then switch it on again. If no self-diagnostic
lamps light or fl ash, you can operate and use the monitor as usual.
