Connection to the external pushbuttons is made via standard telephone RJ-11 modular connectors. Two of the 4 wires
(Green and Red) are used to start the selection, while the other two wires (Yellow and Black) provide 12 volts DC to illu-
minate the pushbutton lamp.
Connection to the Pioneer DVD player is via the supplied cable, with a 3 pin DIN circular connector on one end, and a
15 pin male “D” connector on the Pioneer end. Communication between the controller and the player is RS-232 serial
data at 9600 Baud.
Prior to final installation, two steps must be taken: setting up the Pioneer player, and programming the DVD-204 or
DVD-212 with the desired frame numbers or chapters taken from the DVD disc being used.
Pioneer DVD Setup:
It is necessary to configure the Pioneer DVD player to work in this application. As shipped from Pioneer, the factory
default settings need to be changed. This settings are all in the Pioneer’s Advanced Setup menu. It would be a good
idea to review the Pioneer manual for more detail, however, the basic technique to to hold down the SETUP button on
the Pioneer remote control until the following menu appears on the screen. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to scroll
through the menu, and use the RIGHT and LEFT buttons to change a setting. Press ENTER to save the settings.
Remove the DVD disc from the player before changing the settings. If the disc is in, the settings will not be
saved. Keep in mind that the DVD-204 or DVD-212 will not work until the Pioneer player is configured. For
instance, the DVD-204/212 operate at 9600 Baud, while Pioneer’s factory default setting is 4800 Baud. Here are the
required settings:

Preparing for Programming:
Reviewing the DVD Disc:
Connect the Pioneer player to the video monitor such that the DVD disc may be viewed normally. Place the disc
in the player and press the Play button, either on the player itself or on the Pioneer remote control. Press the
DISPLAY button. Pressing the DISPLAY button a second time should display the frame number count. Scan
through the disc, writing down the starting and ending frame numbers for each desired selection. If an attract loop
is to be used, make note of the start and stop frame numbers also. These numbers will be assigned to the but-
tons on the DVD-204/DVD-212.
If no video is to be played between button pushes, locate a frame of black and make a note of the number. This
will be entered as a still frame. These numbers will be assigned to the buttons on the DVD-204/DVD-212.
If chapters are being used, make a note of the desired chapter numbers. Keep in mind when using chapters that
there must be one more chapter on the disc than will actually be played. This is because of the Pioneer com-
mand protocol. For example, to play chapter 3, the player is instructed to seek to the beginning of chapter 3, and
play to the beginning of chapter 4. Hence, there must always be an extra chapter at the end. If your disc does
not have this, then use the frame mode of addressing.
In preparing the disc, a minimium of “authoring” is required. No commands should be encoded on the disc. All
control functions are taken care of by the DVD-204/DVD-212. Problems arise if a disc has been authored to
“have a mind of its own”; in other words to have been set up such that the disc may be accessed, using the
remote control, via a title screen. In this case all the “intelligence” resides in the DVD-204/212. Discs that are
authored to play on their own will frequently present will conflicts as to who is in charge.
Configuring the computer used for programming:
Double click on the Hypertrm.exe icon. The program will open with a New Connection dialog box, with the instruction to
enter a name and select an icon. Enter a name of your choosing, such as DVD-204, or the name of the product you are
about to program. Choice of icon is immaterial. Click OK.
th
The next dialog box will ask for a phone number. Go to the 4 box down, CONNECT USING, and select DIRECT TO
COM1. (This assumes that COM port 1 is free on your machine, sometimes the internal modem occupies this position.
If this is the case, select COM2). Click OK
The next dialog box is entitled PORT SETTINGS. Use the following settings:
Baud Rate
Data Bits
Parity
Stop Bits
Flow Control
9600
8
None
1
None
.
Click OK. The main screen will appear, and at the bottom left the message “Connected” will appear.
Connect the PC-9 programming cable from the 9 pin COM port on the back of the PC to the 5 pin circular connector on
the back of the Museum Technology product. Make sure power is connected. Press the red PROGRAM button on the
back of the Museum Technology control unit; the red LED should illuminate, and the programming menu should appear
on the computer screen.
Trouble Shooting:
In virtually all cases, problems may be traced to having the wrong COM port selected. If the computer has more than
one 9 pin connector on the back, try the other one.
If gibberish appears, this is generally due to having the wrong baud rate selected.
Keep in mind that the Museum Technology box just sends the main menu immediately after the red PROGRAM button
has been pushed; to get the main menu again, merely press the RESET button and then the PROGRAM button.
If any changes are made in Hyperterminal, they will not take effect until a disconnect has been made, and a reconnec-
tion established. To do disconnect, click on the icon of a phone off the hook. The message on the lower left of the
screen will now say Disconnected. Reconnect by clicking on the icon of the phone on hook.
Programming the DVD-204 /DVD-212
Once communication has been established between the PC and the DVD-204 / DVD-212 it is a simple matter to type in
the frame or chapter numbers, as well as to set the desired options. Please refer to the following programming example
for the available commands and settings. In this example, what appears on the computer screen is on the left side of
the page in courier while the description is on the right.

Units are shipped set to work with Chapters. In
this instance, we wish to use Frame Numbers,
hence typing A will allow us to select Frame mode by typing
F. In general Frame mode offers the most versatility. In the
following examples frame numbers will be used. If the disc
has been prepared with Chapters, they may also be used.
Chapter Start / Frame end is primarily used with the older
Pioneer 7200 players, which were much slower seeking
frames than chapters. The Pioneer 7400 model overcame
this issue.

Interruptibility or Button Lock-out Function.
Please choose a command: I
Button selections can be uninterruptible (they
always play to the end) or interruptible (they can
be interrupted by pressing another button). If
interruptible, a safe time can be set, specifying
the minimum amount of time before a selection can be
interrupted.
Interruptibility refers to the action of the pushbuttons
while a selection is playing. If the buttons are set to
be non-interruptible, they remain locked out while the
selection is playing. If the buttons are set to be inter-
ruptible, a press of a button while any selection is
playing will cause the system to immediately play the
new selection. It is also possible to set a “safe time”
during which the buttons are locked out, becoming
active again after the “safe time” period.
Selections are now interruptible
after 0 seconds.

Please choose a command: R
This function converts the last pushbutton (#4 on
the DVD-204; #12 on the DVD-212) from a normal
selection button to an “instant reset” function.
When configured for instant reset, pressing the but-
ton will cause the player to revert immediately to its
Idle function. Instant reset over-rides any button
lock-out settings. This function can be useful when
the selections are of great length, and the buttons
have been set to non-interruptable (locked out)
Button 4 can be either a normal
button or an instant reset button. If it is
an instant reset button, then pressing it will
immediately stop any other button’s program,
regardless
of the interruptibility and safe time settings.
Button 4 is now a normal button.

Please choose a command: S
Slave Delay is set to 0 tenths of seconds
Do you want to change this (Y/N)? Yes
When a DVD-204 / DVD-212 is used to drive more
than one DVD player ( using a special cable) the
Slave Delay should be set for 1 second (10 tenths).
This is to ensure that the slowest of the players had
had sufficient time to carry out its instructions. Slave
Delay refers to the amount of time that the players
sit on their first frame before actually starting to play.
How many tenths of seconds delay would you like? 10

This completes the programming of the control unit. Unplug the Programming Cable from the back of the unit,
and store it away for the next programming session. Connect the supplied LDV cable (3 pin round to 15 pin)
from the player to the controller. At this point it is recommended that both the controller and the player have their
power shut off for 10 seconds. When they are turned back on, the DVD-204 /DVD-212 will wait 45 seconds
before sending any commands to the player. This is to ensure that the player has had time to spin up. During this
time, the red “Program” light on the back of the controller will wink. When it goes out, the player will go to its Idle
(or Attract) sequence, and the pushbuttons will be enabled. Note that the pushbuttons will only illuminate once the
player is up to speed.

Addendum to DVD-204 / DVD-212 Manual
Effective with version 2.03, most programming tasks can be
accomplished without having to connect the DVD-204 /DVD-212
to a computer. Using only a DVD-204 /DVD-212, a Pioneer
7200 /7400 DVD player, and a video monitor, it is possible
to program the DVD-204 /DVD212. Please note that only
frame numbers (not chapters) can be used when programming
on-screen. Many of the other setup options may be imple-
mented by the on-screen technique.
First, set up the DVD player, the video monitor, and the
DVD-204 /DVD212. The DVD to be used must be in the player.
Apply power to all three components. Make sure that the
DVD player and video monitor are turned on. Press the red
"Program" button on the back of the DVD-204 /DVD-212. The
monitor screen should now display the model and version
number as well as information on how to contact Museum
Technology Source. A few seconds later, the screen will
display:

At this point, pressing
button 1 on the front of the DVD-204 /DVD-212 will
instruct the DVD-204 /DVD-212 that you wish to place new
frame numbers into memory, or to determine what frame num-
bers are currently stored. Note: whenever a button can be
usefully pressed, it will be flashing: here, buttons 1
though 4 are chasing.
Note: "PROGRAM button" refers to the red button on the
rear panel of the DVD-204 or DVD-212

Upon pressing button 1, the following message will appear
on the screen:

In this example let's say that we wish to program button
number 3; we simply press button 3 to do so. The screen
will now say:
Button 3 Plays
Frames: 3000 to 3100.
Change this?
Yes

No

This indicates that button #3’s memory is at the factory
default setting. If the unit had been previously
programmed, the start and stop frame numbers would appear
instead of “Frames: 3000 to 3100.” Since we do indeed
wish to change this, we press button #1 to answer “Yes” to
the question. In response, the screen will display:
Button: 3
Select new START frame.
Use player front panel
or remote control
Press 1 to select.

At this point, you may use the Pioneer DVD player's con-
trols as you normally would, to find the exact frame on
the disc to begin your button sequence. In this example,
let's say frame "5678". After the start frame is located
on the DVD, press button 1 on the DVD-204 /DVD-212. As
mentioned earlier, only button 1 will be flashing now.
Upon pressing button 1, the following screen will appear:
Button: 3
Select new END frame.
Use player front panel
or remote control
Press 1 to select.

Using the same procedure as used in finding the start
frame, use the player's controls to locate the last frame
of the sequence. For this example, let's say frame "5800".
Press button 1, which will be flashing, when you are done.
In this example, the screen will now be reading:
Button 3 plays
Frames: 5678 to 5800.
Change this?
Yes
1
No

Since these are the desired settings, we press button 4 to
indicate that no change is desired (Here, frames 5678 and
5800 are used as an example, in reality, the actual frame
numbers would be displayed).
The screen will now revert to the main menu where we
began. Use the above technique to program the remaining
buttons. It is not necessary to program more buttons than
you are using. If your application calls for just one but-
ton, that is all that needs to be programmed. When you
have finished all programming, return to the main menu and
press the red "Program" button on the back of the DVD-204
/DVD-212, which
3
is the Exit and Run command. The player will now revert to it's normal
state, ready for use.
You may wish to program what the DVD does between plays. This is done on
the main menu by pressing button 2 to bring up the Idle program. By fol-
lowing the steps shown on-screen, you may have the video freeze on a
still frame until a button is pushed, play from a start frame to an end
frame over and over, or do nothing.
From the main menu, pressing button 4 will take you to the Option menu,
which includes the Interruptability, slave delay, and button test func-
tions. These are described earlier in this manual.

NOTES ON PROGRAMMING
MUSEUM TECHNOLOGY CONTROL
UNITS WITH A WINDOWS BASED PC
All versions of Windows contain a terminal program, HYPERTERMINAL, which
works quite well for programming Museum Technology control units, such as HD
and DVD (and also VDC controllers when being used with a long-play video disc
or a Sony player).
If you are using Windows 98 or XP, from the START menu (lower left of screen
usually), go to the PROGRAMS menu, then to the ACCESSORIES menu, then to
COMMUNICATIONS, then to HYPERTERMINAL.
If you are using Windows 95, the steps are the same, except there is no COMMU-
NICATIONS menu. Go directly to HYPERTERMINAL from ACCESSORIES.
Double click on the HYPERTERM.EXE icon (may just say HYPERTRM). The pro-
gram will open with a NEW CONNECTION dialogue box which asks you to enter
a name and select and icon. Enter the name of the product you are about to pro-
gram, such as DVD-204. The choice of icon is immaterial. Click OK.
The next dialog box will ask for a phone number. Go to the fourth box down,
CONNECT USING, and select DIRECT TO COM1 (This assures that COM1 Port
is free on your machine. Sometimes the internal modem occupies this position. If
this is the case, select COM2). Click OK.
The next dialog box is entitled PORT SETTINGS. Use the following settings for
all DVD Controllers:

For Video Disc Controllers, such as the VDC-200A and VDC-212, use the same settings
except the Baud Rate is 1200. Click OK. Main screen will appear and at the bottom left
message “Connected” will appear.
Connect the programming cable from the 9-pin COM port on the back of the PC to the 5-
pin circular connector on the back of the Museum Technology product. Make sure power
is connected. Press the red PROGRAM button on the back of the Museum Technology
control unit. The red LED should illuminate and the programming menu should appear
on the computer screen.
Trouble Shooting
In virtually all cases, problems may be traced to having the wrong COM Port selected. If
the computer has more than one 9-pin connector on the back, try the other one.
If gibberish appears, it is generally due to having the wrong Baud Rate selected.
Keep in mind that the Museum Technology box just sends the main menu immediately
after the red PROGRAM button has been pushed; to get to the main menu again, merely
press the RESET button and the the PROGRAM button.
Any changes made in HYPERTERMINAL will not take effect until a disconnect has been
made and a reconnection established. To disconnect, click on the icon of a phone off the
hook. The message on the lower left of the screen will now say “Disconnected.”
