I have a MX 7000, type: 8700 which I would like to have a PIP module installed in. Can someone please explain which PIP module i should aquire and where I can buy one?

Someone have offered me a PIP module from a LX 5500 - can this be used? He says that the servicemanual for this module says: Type 4120 (LX) og 4121 (MX) and on the PCB: 80073350 and 44900095.

 Hope to hear from you experts...

 

Best regards,

Rasmus

The module for the LX5500 will not fit. The one you need looks like a triangle... the 5500 is a square and internally complete different.

ok... thank you for your answer... do you have any idea where to find such a module and do I need anything else to get PIP working? I'm thinking - do I need to change firmware or anything like that?

 Can someone please comment on this PIP module: http://my.qxl.dk/accdb/viewItem.asp?IDI=515114182

which models is it for?

You need Firmware 1.x.

Firmware 2.0 does not support the pip module. At least the series firmware 2.0 does not work with it, i had the same problem and had to downgrade to 1.1.

I think the shown module is for Avant or later models.

ehh... where can I see the firmware version.

on the backside of my MX 7000 it says: "S.W. 4.7" - and I can see it has been upgraded from ver. 4.3

but is it not the firmware version?
