3.2 Operating the Bay Cat
The Bay Cat has a cache which saves the last ten source settings.
To change sources (input connectors)
Press the
SOURCE button on the remote. Bay Cat
will look for the next connector that has a picture
coming in, select that one, and auto adjust to it.
Or open the Picture menu and select the source
with the left-right arrow keys.
To “disable” the remote control
To prevent unauthorized use and adjustment of
the Bay Cat, either hide the remote, or put a small
piece of tape over the IR received hole in the lower left
corner. You can also disable and enable IR command
processing with an RS232 command.
To save settings
Settings (position, aspect ratio, brightness/con-
trast, color balance) are saved automatically 5 sec-
onds after you make a change. The system caches the
last tens settings. Whenever a picture is shown from
a new source with the same resolution as a previous
picture, the system recalls the previous settings
rather than readjust everything. This happens regard-
less of the check marks in Auto Adjust Options. (See
also “Auto Adjustment Options” on page 51.)
For example, suppose you display an NTSC picture
in the composite input and set the Aspect Ratio and
Position to your liking. Then you feed in a composite
PAL picture and set a different Aspect Ratio and a dif-
ferent Position. If you then feed in a new NTSC pic-
ture, the previous NTSC picture’s settings for Aspect
Ratio and Position will be used.
