Additional Information for Decoder Setup
Identify Mode
As an aid to setting-up a VN-MATRIX decoder
in a large or complex system, use the Identify
function to display the device name on the
display output.
Tick the Identify checkbox, then click the
update button. The device name will appear
on the display (see example right).
NOTES
 The name will only display if a valid
source is currently selected and being
displayed.
 The name only displays on the
selected output device only. It does
not appear as part of the streamed
source on other displays.
No Data Splash Mode
If a VN-MATRIX decoder cannot display a source (e.g. if no source is selected, has become
disconnected or is in the wrong format), it offers two different display options.
The required option is selected using the Nodata Splash checkbox:

Display a splash screen (see example right), or

Display the last frame of valid source data
(black if no data is available).
Device Mode
A VN-MATRIX decoder can be configured in three modes:
 enable allows the selected source to be displayed,
 disable prevents a source from being displayed (display is blank),
 standby prevents a source from being displayed (display shows ‘no data’ splash screen).
For normal operation, enable must be selected.
