Using the VCR

All control of the Cable TV Tuner is through the AMX Touchscreen Controller.

To begin using the Cable TV Tuner, first turn on the projector(s) and select the input for the VCR/CableTV on the desired projector. Remember that Projector #1 is on the left side of the Rear Projection Screen and Projector #2 is on the right side when looking at the screen from the back of the Seminar Room.

To control the Cable TV Tuner, first make sure the VCR is powered on. Press the "VCR & Cable TV Controls" button located on the top of the AMX Touchpanel. This will show the VCR Control page which will look like this:

Verify the VCR is turned on, and if it is not turned on press the "VCR Power" button located on the left side of the AMX Touchpanel screen. If the VCR is powered on, press the Cable TV Controls button on the right side of the AMX Touchpanel. This will switch the display to the Cable TV Tuner controls:

From here you can select the channel you wish to display on the projectors by either direct inputting the channel number on the keypad or moving the current channel up or down using the arrow keys on the right side of the screen.

A preview window is located in the center of the AMX display and will show the video feed from the Cable TV. Tapping the AMX screen in this mode will expand the preview window to a fullscreen view of the video feed and tapping the screen once more will revert back to the windowed view.

To return to the VCR Controls, press the "Switch to VCR Controls" button located on the bottom of this screen.

PLEASE DO NOT POWER DOWN THE VCR
