Basic instructions for getting your IMC mounted, powered up and configured.
Configuring Your IMC for use with an F.Series or iQ
Connect your system
according to any of
the wiring guides on
the other side of this
guide.
Make sure your ReQuest
server is powered on and
connected to the network
before connecting and
powering up the IMC.
On first run, the IMC will begin
cycling through video modes,
changing once every 15
seconds. Confirm the mode
that works best with your TV.
The connected TV will display
a message that the “server
was not found” or “this panel
is not configured”. Close this
dialogue to proceed.
Move your cursor down
to the “ReQuest Server
IP” Box. Delete 0.0.0.0
and enter your ReQuest
server’s IP address using
the onscreen keypad.
Click on “Close” then
“Save” and your IMC
will reboot. After
reboot, the IMC will be
configured and ready
for use!
On a networked computer,
browse to the iQ system’s
webserver and click “iQ
Configuration” in the
bottom menu.
To reset your IMC to factory
defaults, aim your remote at the
IMC and click:
The unit will reboot and return to
factory defaults.
Click on “Rooms”. Once
there, drag the IMC to the
appropriate room with a
speaker and your IMC will
be ready to use!

If you find yourself stuck at any

Any time you make a change to
your screen resolution mode, your
IMC will cycle through all modes
(720, 1080i, 1080p, 480p) for 15
seconds at a time until you select
one that works. This prevents the
IMC from getting stuck on the
wrong mode for your TV.
