Delta Elec. Inc. Vivitek rev.00 2-8. Remote Control Parts Important: 1. Avoid using the projector with bright fluorescent lighting turned on. Certain high-frequency fluores- cent lights can disrupt remote control operation. 2. Be sure nothing obstructs the path between the remote control and the projector. If the path be- tween the remote control and the projector is obstructed, you can bounce the signal off certain reflective surfaces such as projector screens.

Delta Elec. Inc. Vivitek rev.00 2-11. Explanation of the block diagrams 1. Input signal processing 1-1.RGB & Component & DVI input system The RGB(5BNC) and COMPONENT input signals are led through the multiplexer circuit. After these signals and DVI signal have been converted into 10-bit digital signals of RGB each at the A/D converter (U201) incorporated in the VIDEO amplifier, the resultant signals are output to the scaler (U400).
