NOTE: See

Section 2, Installation and Setup

, for a full explanation of how to

connect a variety of sources to the projector.

The projector stores and automatically recalls up to 99 different channels (source

setups) for a variety of inputs. This memory feature allows you to define and

conveniently use a wide variety of customized setups rather than having to repeatedly

re-configure the projector for different presentations. Each physical source (i.e.,

input) can have several different channels associated with it.

An input simply describes a physical location for an incoming signal

connection. These connections are always either on the projector itself (one of the

four inputs at the rear of the projector) or on any switcher connected to the

projector’s switcher port.

describes the source signal according to two specific

criteria only—to which switcher it is connected and to which slot it is connected—

and is identified by a 2-digit number entered on the keypad. The first digit specifies

the switcher (0-9), the second specifies the slot (1-9). Note that the projector is

always considered “switcher #0”.

= use source connected to switcher #1, slot #3

= use source connected to the projector, slot #1 (i.e.,

)

You can switch to an input in either one of two ways. Pressing the appropriate direct

key —

, , , or

— is a quick and seamless way to display from one

of the four inputs connected at the rear of the projector. Or, if your projector has a

switcher connected to it at the

port, press the general key and enter

the 2-digit number representing the switcher and slot location for the desired signal

(note there is no on-screen feedback for entering the numbers).

Regardless of which method you use to select a source/input, the image will be

displayed according to the following:

If it is the first time you have used the source/input

(or if you used the input but did

not define a channel by adjusting anything ), the projector will recognize the new

input signal based on its frequencies and polarities, and will automatically display an

image according to default settings for such a signal. Note that a graphic source will

resize into a full-screen image, whereas video or HDTV sources will resize only as

much as possible while maintaining their aspect ratio.

If you used the source once before and changed a display parameter

such as

contrast, V-Position etc., then a channel was automatically created and still exists in

projector memory (see below). Using an

key will automatically recall this

channel—and all its setup parameters—and update the display accordingly.

If more than one channel exists

for the input, the image will be displayed according

to the setup parameters for the first channel with matching characteristics.

A channel is a collection of measurements, locations and settings that

tailor a display to your specific needs. Since source types and applications can vary

greatly, you will likely want to adjust and define a wide variety of parameters, such

as brightness, contrast, tint, size, etc., in order to customize and optimize the display

coming from a particular source. For example, the display settings you choose for a

VCR source may be very different from those you choose for a high resolution

computer source, or one signal may simply vary from another signal used earlier
