How to Run Data Distributor Test Patterns Directly from The DD

• How do I run or output a test pattern on a display directly from a Data Distributor via DIP switches or push buttons?

• Product Family: Video, Control Systems
• Product: DD 1000, DD 2x00, DD 3x00, DD 4030, DD 404x series
• Component:
• Control System: 

DD 1000 SERIES

1. Locate the jumpers next to the RS-232 jack. There are 2 sets (W1 and W2).
       a.  W1 is the to the right while looking at the display board.
2. Move the Jumper on W1 from the top set of pins to the bottom set to display the Test Pattern.
3. Make sure all jumpers are moved back to original position when completed.

DD 2000 SERIES

1. Locate S2 which is a 4 dipswitch bank along the edge of the DD next to the Data Comm Card.
2. Close (Turn On) DIP switch #2.
3. Make sure all switches are put back to original positions for the display configuration after completion. The list below provides information on the switch settings.
    

   S2 Dip Switches Location
   Switch 1 On	Disables Cabinet temp inputs
   Switch 2 On	Test Pattern
   Switch 3 On	Test Mode, Factory only
   Switch 4 On	Not used

DD 2500 SERIES

1. Locate S1 which is a 4 DIP switch bank located towards the center of the DD.
2. Use DIP switches 1, 2 and 3 to select various Test Patterns as shown below.
3. Make sure all switches are put back to original positions after completion.
    

   S1 Dip Switch Location (Up = Open, Down = Closed)
   	1	2	3
   Test Mode Off	Open	Open	Open

DD 3000 SERIES (INCLUDES DD 3000, DD 3100, AND DD 3200)

1. Locate S2 which is a 4 DIP switch bank that is located towards the center of the DD.
2. Use DIP switch 1, 2, and 4 to select the various Test Patterns as shown below.
3. Make sure all switches are put back to original positions after completion.
   Note: DIP switch 3 enables the diagnostics communications type: Up=RS 232, Down=Fiber. If changing from fiber to wire communication (connecting directly to DD instead of going through diagnostics) the fiber diagnostic wires must be disconnected and power cycled to the DD).
    

   S2 Dip Switch Location (Up = Open, Down = Closed)
   	1	2	4

1. Locate S2 which is a 4 DIP switch bank that is located towards the center of the DD.
2. Use DIP switch 1, 2, and 3 to select various Test Patterns as shown below.
3. Make sure all switches are put back to original positions after completion.
    

   S2 Dip Switch Location

TIPS & ADDITIONAL INFO

1. Consider the orientation of the DD when trying to find the location of the DIP switches. This may vary depending on the DD location.
2. Always remember to disable the Test Patterns before displaying normal content.
3. If the Test Pattern will not disengage, try rebooting DD.
4. Before contacting Technical Operations or Engineering, please note the revisions of the DD.
