  • Page 150 As the BARCOVISION 708 MULTIMEDIA is digitally controlled, all geometry and convergence adjustments are stored in the projector’s memory as numeric values. These numeric values are used to control digital potentiometers which in turn, control the projector. Each source connected to the projector has a unique set of adjustment data which is automatically downloaded into the projector’s digital potentiometers as the source is selected.
