Section 3: Operation
Switching to a Different Input Source
There are different ways to change between different Inputs:
• Press the appropriate direct key (Inputs 1 to 6) to quickly display one of the 6 inputs connected at the side of
the projector.
• Press I
NPUT
and enter the appropriate number (1 to 6) corresponding to the location of the desired signal (on-
screen feedback is provided).
• Alternatively, if the "
press numbers 1 to 6 on the built-in keypad or standard IR remote to select the appropriate Input source.
With any of these methods, the image displays 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 recognizes the new input signal based on its frequencies and polarities, and
automatically displays an image according to default settings for such a signal. In general, the image from the
new source is as large as possible without losing its aspect ratio. This and other default image settings depend
on the incoming source.
If you used the source once before and changed a display parameter such as Contrast, V-Position, etc., then
a channel is automatically created and still exists in projector memory (see below). Using an I
automatically recalls this channel (along with all associated setup parameters) and updates the display
accordingly.
If more than one channel exists for the input, the image displays according to the setup parameters for the
first channel with matching characteristics.
If PIP is enabled, press I
the main (primary) image source.
NOTE:
Inputs 7 and 8 require the Dual SD/HD-SDI module in either of the projector's option slots. For their
selection, refer to
A Channel is a collection of measurements, locations and settings that tailor the display of a signal to your
specific needs. Since source types and applications can vary greatly, you likely want to adjust and define a
wide variety of parameters, such as brightness, contrast, size, etc., in order to customize and optimize the
display from or for 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 previously through the same input location. Once you have adjusted a display
parameter, such as pixel tracking or contrast, all current settings are collectively stored in the projector's
memory as a unique 2-digit Channel, such as "09".
You can have numerous distinct channels available for the same input, any of which can be selected by using
the C
HAN
key on the remote, followed by the 2-digit channel number.
