MHubbard Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I recently recieved a pair of new DCS 200s at my property, and ran into an rather unique issue. I am taking a widescreen signal (1280x720) and having to tweak the timings to completely fill the screen and have saved the config. The issue I'm running into is that if I switch to the logo, and then attempt to pull up the input again, it doesn't pull the saved config back and returns it to it's original size. Is there a way to force it to take the saved config without having to recall it every time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Lee Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 That is strange. Never had that problem. Maybe a call to Barco service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazzAV Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I think this was an old problem with DCS 200s, you need to see if they have the latest firmware update, however we had this problem a year ago and a tech on that event had the problem 2-3 months before that, so I am very surprised that the new units are still doing it.

Pete McCrea Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Depends if the unit was fresh out the factory, or had been in the warehouse for a few months. Sorry, but can't offer any advice on the DCS though as we are running the Screen PROII's. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FolsomPM Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Make sure you are running the latest software Version 1.13 you can find it on the barco website.http://www.barco.com/en/product/1861/downloads Also, make sure that you have saved the sizing set up, and then turn off auto acquire. If you leave it on, the system assumes you want to re size the source each time. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FolsomPM Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 No Problem! Happy to help. The DCS can be a misunderstood little youth :D The Auto features are cool when you are doing the punch and pray thing, but if you are setting it up and then operating it is always best to save each source and then turn off all of the auto stuff. it switches much faster as well. The biggest trick to all of the Folsom/Barco kit is to keep the software up to date. FYI, new Encore 2.0 software should be out tomorrow or the next.

plinque Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 The DCS can be a misunderstood little youth <_<But when you treat her right, she's a babe :) I've just spent a week with the FSR OEM version in which I was mixing and matching a variety of occasionally rather strange input formats (1280x960p anyone?) to a rather tedious xga output. Auto-everything and it worked brilliantly. The think to remember is that you need to save setting changes on a by-channel basis at the time you make the changes, which often (though not always...) means scrolling down rather than hitting esc and hoping for the option to save...
