Switching Input Signal - BenQ ES500 User Manual

Switching input signal

The projector can be connected to multiple devices at the same time. However, it can
only display one full screen at a time. When starting up, the projector automatically
searches for the available signals.
Be sure the Quick Auto Search function in the SOURCE menu is On (which is
the default of this projector) if you want the projector to automatically search for the
signals.
You can also manually cycle through the
available input signals.
1. Press Source on the remote control. A
source selection bar displays.
2. Press
selected and press Mode/Enter.
Once detected, the selected source
information will display on the screen for
seconds. If there is multiple equipment
connected to the projector, repeat steps 1-2 to search for another signal.

presentations using mostly static images are generally brighter than
"Video" using mostly moving images (movies).
• The input signal type effects the options available for the Picture Mode.
See "Selecting a picture mode" on page 32

signal which outputs at this resolution. Any other resolutions will be
scaled by the projector depending upon the 'aspect ratio' setting, which
may cause some image distortion or loss of picture clarity. See
"Selecting the aspect ratio" on page 31
