Counter

Hello

How do you get to check the counter on the
Seleco SVP 400 HT video projector
Thank You

This is very strange.......

Usually go into the installation menu,

press opt

the last one says "working time", below memory

NOW

at the weekend I tryied to check a 400HT I have here and it did not show the hours.

This is strange as I am trying to sell it and cant give this info.

(I have 5 other selecos here and they ALL show the hours)

Are you having the same trouble ???


I will check again BUT 3 of us here tried and could not get them to show.

 

[tech838]

no but do you have any ebay account selling them as people on here have been saying that alot to my lately
thank you

A wild guess: Do you have to have an input active for the counter to be available? On some pjs the menu isn't always available unless you have a signal going to it.

MMH - any idea what is different about that pj compared to the others that might give a clue why it isn't showing the hours?

Gary - A well educated guess but this time no prize! You should be able to see the "working time" without any input.

I have proved this on 5 Selecos within the last 4 days.

The input usually gives stability to the cross hatch pattern.

Attached is a pic of the 400HT menu , at the bottom should be "working hours", (its 1am and I am not going to get another one out of its box! but all the others show "working time")

Now one currently for sale elsewhere (not mine) has the hours listed.

I am sure it should show up, not sure why it does not.

I spoke to Chris about this and am looking into it.
(we have one idea!)

Keep watching.......


tech838 - what prompted you to ask this?

I think you have a unit with an earlier version of the software. If i remember correctly the working time was missing on the first release of software.

 

[Mad Mr H]

This unit has software version 1.41

Build date May 1997

Snap! Software release 1.41 and no 'hours run' meter. Was beginning to think there was a menu hidden somewhere that I just couldn't find.
