Menus / Configuration

Stand Alone vs. Lodging Mode

The ICS-SP30 is designed to operate in a Pay-Per-View environment, connected to a lodging system that uses protocols and commands to control the display and tuner. The ICS-SP30 may also be able to operate in a Stand Alone mode to provide basic TV tuning for the Sony Display.

When the ICS-SP30 is connected to a compatible lodging system, the ICS-SP30 will automatically recognize the lodging system and respond to the PPV commander. In Lodging Mode, the control buttons and IR commands from the Sony remote will not control the display and tuner.

Supported Remote Controls

The ICS-SP30 is designed to function with the remote control that shipped with the Sony display. Because of differences in the display remotes, in which not all remotes have the same available buttons, some remotes may have limited functionality with the display remote. In such case, a standard Sony TV remote or universal remote (such as Sony RM-EZ2) using Sony IR commands can control the ICS-SP30 in Stand-Alone Mode.

Navigating Menus The menus in the operation of the ICS-SP30 have been designed to use the Left, Right, Up,

Down buttons for most functions. To return to a previous menu, pressing the Left button

Stand-Alone Set Up Menu

The ICS-SP30 set up process includes a sequence of numbers pressed on the Sony remote to access the set up menus. With the display and ICS-SP30 powered on press the following in sequence. (note: when pressing buttons, press the buttons to be sure the system receives the code.

Setup Menu code: Up Right Left Mute

If a button is pressed in error, press the Down arrow to clear the code entries. In the lodging environment a different remote or function may be enabled to provide additional security.
