MV-5 Troubleshooting & Maintenance
6-3
The MV-5 is powered on, but there is no video.
1. Examine the video cables – particularly the S-Video cables –
to ensure a good connection to the associated component.
2. Check the INPUT SETUP menu VIDEO IN parameter to ensure
the appropriate video connector is assigned to the selected
input.
3. Refer to the “Video Error Messages” section found later in this
chapter for more information about specific video-related error
messages.
Video is shifted to the left.
When the MV-5 has both component and HDMI cables connected to
a video monitor with the Faroudja processing active, the Faroudja
processing may cause the video to shift to the left when the
component output is selected, particularly at higher resolution
settings.
To correct the issue, change the Display CONNECTION parameter
from HDMI/DVI to ANALOG, or unplug the HDMI cable.
To change the CONNECTION parameter:
1. Enter the OSD Menu by pressing MENU on the remote control.
2. Use the or cursors to highlight SETUP and then press the
cursor or press the SELECT button to select the menu option.
3. Using the cursors, highlight and select DISPLAY SETUP.
4. Then select CONNECTION. The parameter selection starts to
flash.
5. Use the or cursors to select ANALOG and then press the
cursor to save the selection.
6. Press EXIT to close the OSD menu.
In the Semi Autocal Test, the Far Field Test keeps failing.
1. Ensure that the microphone is placed in the center of the room,
or in your preferred seating location.
2. Ensure that the volume is set to -15dB.
3. In the Speakers Menu, ensure that none of the speakers
connected to the system have a cross-over selection of NONE.
During the Far Field Test, test tones are sent to ALL speaker
locations, regardless of the settings identified in the Speakers
menu. Therefore, every speaker that is plugged in MUST have
a cross-over setting other than NONE for the Far Field test to be
successul. If a cross-over is set to NONE but the speaker is
plugged in, the test will fail because it will “see” a speaker that
is identified as having no cross-over point.
4. Refer to the “Autocal Error Messages” section found later in this
chapter for more information about specific autocal-related
error messages.
Audio sounds distorted when using analog audio inputs.
The likely cause for distorted audio while using the analog audio
inputs is that the input voltage is too high. The MV-5 analog inputs
have a maximum voltage rating of 2 Vrms. Any input voltages
higher than this limit will exhibit audible distortion.
To correct the problem, reduce the analog audio output from the
connected device using the volume or level control. If neither is
available, an intermediate device may be required. Contact your
Lexicon dealer for assistance.
