Control Panel
The HD2700D has 3 modes for DVD and DVD ROM
playback. The rst 2 modes are for traditional DVD
formats. Meaning the DVD has authored with a
menu, chapters and titles. The “TITLE” (1) mode will
auto play and loop all the video les and chapters
associated with the largest title on the DVD. Most
main stream DVDs are authored so the main feature
is in a single title and other content such as behind
the screens footage is in separate titles. The “ALL” (2)
mode option will simply play all of the DVD content
in order according to how the disc was authored.The
“ROM” (3) mode is to be used when video les such
as .mov, .mp4, .MPEG2, jpg, etc are simply copied
onto a DVD Disc (DVD ROM). Once in ROM mode the
settings menu oers multiple“Play Mode”options in-
cluding repeat, interactive and scheduler (see page 3
for more details).The Eject button (4) only illuminates
30 seconds after a DVD has been inserted. The player
can be powered on and o with either the power
button (5) (RED=O/GREEN=On) or the remote.

Connections
The HD2700D is capable out outputting video from
either Composite Video (6), HDMI (7) or Component
Video (8). The HD2700D is capable of outputting
audio through HDMI, R/L audio jacks (9) and digital
audio (10) while HDMI is being used (see audio set-
tings). The I/O port (11) is used for RS232 communi-
cation and connecting to our line of interactive so-
lutions including PUSH, ELEVATE, MOVE, SENSE and
WAVE. The Ethernet jack (12) and Wi USB (13) can
be used for time sync only. For remote access please
refer to the HD2700N.

Settings - Play Mode
The HD2700D has 4 play back modes which can be accessed
and changed by selecting the Settings option from the home
screen (15) or by pressing the Settings button on the remote.
Each mode has unique functionality and can be easily changed
for your specic application.
• Repeat Mode (16) - This mode will loop all content burned
onto DVD ROM in alphabetical order. If your DVD ROM in-
cludes videos & photos, the HD2700D will play all video les
rst and then play photo les.Your le list will automatically
play from the beginning when your DVD ROM is inserted
and when the player powers up.
• Interactive trigger mode (instant (19) & delayed (20))-These
modes would be used if you have an application that re-
quires interactive video triggering using a motion sensor,
push buttons, a wave sensor or weight platform. For ex-
ample: Lets say your application requires a looping video
and 3 mechanical buttons that each play a specic video
when pressed. First you would load 4 video les on your
DVD ROM (17). These les would need to be labeled 000.
mov (18), 001.mov, 002.mov and 003.mov (or what ever ex-
tension your video has.... mp4, avi, etc..). The video le 000.
mov represents the video that will loop endlessly until ei-
ther button 1 (001.mov will play), 2 (002.mov will play) or 3
(003.mov will play) is pressed.
- Instant mode (19) will trigger a dierent video even if
the rst video has not nished playing. For example:
If 3 buttons are available and button 2 is pressed, vid-
eo 002.mov will begin playing. If button 3 is pressed,
then video 002.mov will stop and video 003.mov will
instantly play.
- Delayed mode (20) will ignore any additional button or
sensor triggers until the 1st video is nished playing.
For example: If 3 buttons are available and button 2 is
pressed, video 002.mov will begin playing, play once
and then begin looping the 000.mov video. If button
3 is pressed during video 002.mov, the HD2700D will
ignore all requests for a new video until the 1st select-
ed video is done playing.
• Scheduling mode (21) - This mode would be used if you
wish to play specic videos at dierent times of the day
and/or week. For example if you wanted to play a breakfast
menu from 8am to 11am, a lunch menu from 11am to 3pm
and a dinner menu from 3pm to 11pm you would use this
menu option. Once scheduling mode is selected you sim-
ply need to create a text le (22) with start and stop times
and load it on the same DVD ROM as your video les (23).
A sample play list can be downloaded from our web site
or can be manually typed from the example on the right
(24). Notes: 1) The text le must be called playlist.txt 2)
None of the command text is case sensitive, only the video
le names are 3) Make sure the date and time are set cor-
rectly on the Date & Time settings section. In this example
the [NUMBER_OF_VIDEOS] (25) must equal the total num-
ber of videos loaded on your SD or USB. [MOVIE_AUTOFILE]
(26) will be your looping attract screen or default video. The
“breakfast menu.mov” will loop whenever no other start/
stop time is active. You can input an unlimited number of
stop and start times and the scheduler works o of a 7 day
calendar. Trigger playback on specic days by inputting the
[DAY_TO_PLAY]= as MON TUE WED THU FRI SAT (27)
SUN, otherwise enter ALL (every day). You can also set your
HD2700D to power on and o at specic times by using the
{POWERON] (28) and [POWEROFF]= commands.

Video encoding tips
The HD2700D will play a majority of video and
audio codecs. The only limitation is the bit rate
of the le. The HD2700D is capable of playing
up to 100mbps. As a comparison a standard
DVD plays at 8mbps and a Blu-Ray DVD plays at
roughly 20mbps. Most customers are using vid-
eo les well under 100mbps but if the HD2700D
is not playing properly, load the video on any
computer and play it. Every video program
should have an option for “Video Properties”.
You can view the bit rate and determine if it is
within range. If the video is out of range, it will
Trouble Shooting
• No image on TV - Start by determining if you are having a video le issue or an issue with the output by removing the DVD, SD and USB. If
you still do not have a picture, unplug the power to the HD2700D and make sure you only have 1 video output connected (either HDMI,
Composite or Component). Follow this output cable to your TV and verify which input its connected to (some TVs have multiple inputs...
Example: HDMI1, HDMI 2 and HDMI 3). Make sure your TV is set on the correct input. Next plug the HD2700D back in. If you still do not
have an image after 30 seconds then press then press and release the“Output” button (on the remote) 2 TIMES.. wait 10 seconds. If you
still do not see a picture, press and release the “Output” button 2 TIMES again. You may have to follow this sequence up to 4 times.
• Interactive option not working - Make sure the HD2700D is set to “Interactive” mode (either instant or delayed). Make sure your video
les are labeled as shown on page 2 (18). If the video le does not have an extension ( .mov .mp4 .avi ...etc) and/or does not have 000
001 002 before the extension the interactive portion will not trigger.
• Video is pausing or pixilated - Make sure the bit rate is under 100mbps. Make sure the audio codec is 16bits or less. Check to make sure
the frame rate is not 23.97. If any of these conditions apply the video may not play back properly and will need to be converted.
• Video scheduler is not playing videos at the set times - Make sure the play list is a text le and is called playlist.txt also make sure the
play list is on the same SD, USB or DVD ROM that contains the videos you wish to play. Review the text le (24) (page 2) and make sure
the video le names match what is entered exactly (the video le names ARE case sensitive). Make sure the date and time are set cor-
rectly. If you need additional help, please take screen shots/photos of the play list and DVD ROM les names and email them to sales@
videoteldigital.com and we will be happy to assist.
