Saving And Recalling Configurations - Planar Bobcat X SN-4045-WX User Manual

3.5 Saving and Recalling Configurations

Some settings are saved automatically, but there are big advantages to saving a configuration manually. You can
use the 40 numbered memory "slots" to quickly save and recall a complete setup.
How automatic save works
Whatever changes you make with the remote control or
RS232 commands, these changes are saved automatically.
If you change sources (switch to another input connector)
and come back to this source, everything you did before
will be "recalled." Things will look like they did before.
Suppose you make adjustments to an SVGA source on
Analog 1, then you feed a UXGA source to Analog 1 and
make new adjustments. Then you switch to the S-Video 1
connector and do some more setup for it.
Later you switch to the Analog 1 input again, and this
time it has the SVGA source from before. The Bobcat X
will recognize that it has seen this source before, or at least
a source with these characteristics, and will recall the
SVGA settings you established before.
This kind of recall includes Input Levels, Position, and
Frequency, but it does not include Wall Mode and any Big
Picture adjustments you made. Those need to be recalled
from memory slots.
The fastest, most efficient way to change from one source
to another, or to change a wall from individual pictures to
one big picture, is to recall a memory. All of this is saved
even with AC off.
What the memories store
• selected source
• resolution (and much more about the signal)
• frequency
• phase
• sharpness
• position and size (zoom settings)
• everything in the Wall & Aspect Ratio menu
• Black and While Levels for RGB sources
• Brightness, Contrast, Hue, and Saturation for video
sources
All this is stored separately for each memory slot; as an
example, you could store multiple different wall setups and
switch between them quickly.

Global storage
Some things are stored globally; that is, they stored at
the unit level and are the same for all memory slots.
• everything in the Miscellaneous menu
• everything in Auto Setup Options
• everything in Menu Options
• all the Hours menu
• all the color balance settings
