Configuration
You can alter the way that the X200 module operates to suit your requirements.
This is done using the Configuration mode and you can affect the following
settings:
• Password setting – allows you to lock the remote module to prevent
unauthorised system access.
• Mouse switching control - determines whether channels may be selected
using a three button mouse.
• Video compensation - sharpness & brightness – allows you to manually
adjust the video image to ensure that it is crisp and bright.
• Video skew adjustment - X200AS models only - allows you to compensate
for the effects of long cable runs on colour reproduction.
• Miscellaneous settings – report firmware version and restore settings.
