Did you try going in the main menu page? try pressing P1 (home), then P5 (page down) and then you should see F4 drop/non drop. Hope this helps.
BTW, I was having the same problem when I first purchased the HDW D1800 deck. I was used to editing with the JH3.

Wow, that was fast. Thanks a lot on this Peter. I found the download and I will try the update tonight.

Yes, two different BB dip settings one that’s 23.98 and one thats 23.98psf. The D-1800 liked the regular 23.98 (not psf).
The pulldown card is working ok now. I just can’t lock it in dual reference mode. My needs don’t require the dual reference right now but Sony was concerned that it wasn’t working correctly when they were helping me troubleshoot. They thought a firmware update would resolve. I’m still waiting to hear back from them.
I bought the card at the same time I got the deck. It did not come installed though. I had to install myself. It came with instructions and wasn’t too difficult.

I’m still waiting for Sony to get back to me about how to update the software. They mentioned sending the deck in (I hope not) and the memory card way. The memory card sounds like a better option. I am currently running ROM SY1 V2.03. I was told that V2.08 is the current build. You can check yours by first pressing P1 home then hold the ALT/DELETE and F9 button at the same time and you will enter the maintenance mode. From there select M3: others and then there will be a ROM version option.
Yes, the deck is noisy. If I’m not capturing from it I usually leave it off.
About the AJA, the dip switches on the bottom of the AJA determine what format of Tri Level your are sending. AJA has a downloadable pdf file that has the detailed matrix of all the available settings. I got it from their website as the unit didn’t come with any literature or instructions.

Thanks for the response Mike.
I have been on the phone with Sony the past few days and we have resolved a few isssues I had regarding the Trilevel sync. I needed to send a 23.98 BB signal instead of 23.98psf BB signal. The Gen 10 does both. Now the external reference input is working for the non pulldown modes.
However we are still having problems using the dual reference mode that is needed for the pulldown output. Whenever I try to change the menu item number 342 Pulldown lock mode, I end up losing reference. Sony thinks I need an ROM update as I am running an old version.
The deck is a month old and I’m already out of date… go figure!

I am having the exact problem updating to 4.1. I contacted Boris Tech support a week ago and still havn’t resolved. I don’t want to back down to 4.0 as I have already created about a weeks worth of 4.1 animations.
