    Special Note The MOD200 has to process and digitise the HDMI input from the DVR and this creates a small delay or “latency” on the output, typically in the region of 1.5 seconds. This means that the TV picture will be approximately 1.5 seconds behind what the source output is actually...

    XMOD200 10. Using the Menu As the MOD200 is built for UK use and default menus use UK settings, in many instances there will be no requirement to change menu parameters. As explained previously there are a few settings that will need changing if you are utilising multiple MOD200 units i.e cascading units or when the default channel 60 is already being used.
