Betson Imperial Multisync problem
Dave_K.:
Either this is one massive manufacturing defect, or we are all missing something. Hoping the answers will come tomorrow when I visit Betson during lunch.

One thing is for sure is things are not rosey in Betson monitor land.Following all your guys threads and you guys are not giving me reasons to buy this thing.Seems like this thing has just as much problems as wg d-9200.

Yeah, to think the main reason I chose the Betson is because I thought I'd be getting a simple plug 'n play monitor with no problems. The 9200 is sounding better all the time, but unfortunately it's too late for me! I think this would be a great monitor if its problems were fixed. I'm hoping that we just got a bad batch that Betson will replace for free.
KevSteele:
I'll chime in here - my onscreen rotate function doesn't seem to do anything, either. Luckily for me, the onscreen image was fine when I got the monitor, so I didn't need to rotate it.
I'm going to dig around the specs and the monitor a bit and see if I can find a manual potentionmeter on the circuit board to adjust the rotation and focus (as it is done on the D9200)
I'm also going to be calling my contact at Betson soon, so I'll see what he has to say about these problems.

UPDATE: I checked the service manual, and it mentions that a rotation failure could be due to a loose tilt connection (CN402). Unfortunately, the diagrams fail to identify where, exactly, CN402 is on the board! The service manual has some lousy schematics. I'll keep digging, though...
The Spade:
I'd like to say I'm 'glad' to see I'm not alone, but being glad that folks having problems is just not right.
