Numbers Select Main Image
Use Numbers Select Main Image to use the
numeric keys #1-8 as input keys. This
remapping of the keypad (see right) can be
particularly useful with PIP displays, providing
a convenient shortcut for changing the primary
(background) image without first having to
return to the Main menu. To use the keys in
this manner all of the time, even with single
displays, select Always. For normal keypad
function, select Never (default). Set to When
PIP Active to activate number keys only when
PIP is in use.
NOTE: Numbers Select Main Image keypad
functionality works only when menus are
closed.
Whenever you install a new lamp in the
projector, access the Lamp menu to record

change optical aperture size (if present),
and access other read-only information
pertaining to past and present lamps.

number of hours logged on the current
lamp. Whenever you record a new lamp
serial number this value automatically

appears in the Status menu.

install a new lamp and enter its serial number, the number will appear here.
Enter a checkmark for
LAMP MESSAGE
upon power-up when the lamp has reached the specified lamp limit and should be
replaced. Delete the checkmark to prevent display of this message—instead, when
your lamp expires, only the status display messages on the back of the projector will
provide the visual warning to replace the lamp.
NOTES: 1) It is recommended that the Lamp Message checkbox remain enabled. 2)
When a lamp warning message appears, press
message. The message will continue to appear upon power-up until you install a new
lamp.
