Initializing your Motion Controller can take 30 to 60 seconds, during which, the following messages will be displayed consecutively on the LCD screen: “- Welcome to D-Box Motion System – Initializing -” Simultaneously with the preceding screen you will also notice the Power Status Indicator changing from RED to GREEN.
2.2 Motion Playback You can choose between three distinct motion modes. By pressing the “Cancel” button you can cycle through these modes which allows you to move directly to the selected mode: “F/X Auto” mode. In this mode, your Motion Controller will attempt to automatically identify the current playing track from the complete list of movies installed on your Motion Controller.
In the bottom line, the intensity level of the effects is displayed. This level indicates the global level of all the effects on the actuators connected to the controller in “F/X auto” mode. The level varies between 0 (OFF) and 30 (maximum) and is represented by a horizontal bar.
For the DVD/US/ST/R1 release (first on the left), there are two “Language – Audio Format” combinations supported by D-BOX Motion Code™: “fra – ac3 2.0” and “eng - ac3 5.1”. This means that you must make sure that your DVD/BD settings match any one of the supported formats for “Auto Detection”...

If you choose to view the movie using the “English - Dolby 2.0” setting, which is available on the DVD/BD of the movie, the Motion Controller will not be able to detect and playback the D-BOX Motion Code™ for this setting since it is not supported by D-BOX.
Audio Format Codes Description ac3_2_0 Dolby Digital 2.0 ac3_5_1 Dolby Digital 5.1 dts_5_1 DTS 5.1 Note: Additional “Audio Formats Codes” may be added as they become available. This is done automatically during the Live Update process. Most DVD/BD’s also contain many languages. The Motion Controller Software supports the following languages: Code Description Code...
On the other hand, a negative value will put motion playback ahead of the audio signal input. Sound travels at a speed of about 1 foot per millisecond. Every D-BOX Motion Code is factory delayed by 10 ms for an average viewing distance of 10 feet.
”Set Time Zone”: your time zone can be selected in the list. See Appendix 1 for a complete list of Time Zones. ”Set Date/Time”: the Month can be modified from 1 for January to 12 for December, the day from 1 to 31 (depending on the month) and the year from present to 2999.
Select “Web-Update” to Update to the latest D-BOX Motion Code™ via your Internet connection. If you received a CD with the latest D-BOX Motion Code™, insert the CD in your Motion Controller’s BD-ROM drive and the updates will be done automatically.
The “Error” field gives an approximation of the error rate detected on the digital audio input signal. Typically, this value should always be 0 ppm. This information is generally used for troubleshooting purposes. 3.4.3 Error Message option This screen displays the error messages of the Motion Controller Interface (MCI) that is an internal part of your system. This option is generally used for troubleshooting purposes.
Make sure that your DVD/BD player settings for the Language and Audio Format match the supported format for the corresponding Motion Code. (Refer to section 3.1 for more information on Movie Designation). Usually, all D-BOX Motion Code™ support Dolby 5.1 or DTS 5.1 (when available). Set your DVD/BD player in Dolby 5.1.
