Author Topic: Panastereo / CP 65 power up default sound format Bill Langfield Master Film Handler Posts: 280 From: Prospect, NSW, Australia Registered: Apr 2001 posted 09-30-2003 01:27 PM                        Ive noted that the Panastereo Cp1200's boot/power up into Non-Sync 1 However the Dolby Cp65's power up into mono (or any film format, for that matter). This is most annoying as we do a run down about 60 seconds of junked/old trailers, and if I forget to change format to non-sync it can scare me in bio or ushers checking/on point at cinema entrance. Imagine, everything fired up, silence, then I hit the projector motor for the run down.... WoooooooooHooooo Blarbbbb...bleee Is there an easy jumper change to make a cp65 to default to non-sync?

They are labeled for the different formats. Format 60 is non-sync. Move the jumper from 01 to 60 and you should wake in non-sync. The CP-65 also has the option of 2:4 decoding of the non-sync, which you will also see on that jumper block. Unless you are running video content that is Pro-Logic encoded, it is recommended that you leave the non-sync in the standard format.  |  IP: Logged Oscar Neundorfer Master Film Handler Posts: 275 From: Senoia, GA Registered: May 2000 posted 10-01-2003 09:13 AM                        Just for reference, The Panastereo boots up in whatever format it was in when powered down. Normally, this is Non-sync 1 since this would usually be the format in use when powered down. This behavior can be changed, but I do not remember the details at the moment, and I cannot look it up since I am not in the office (I am at ShowEast).  |  IP: Logged
