Specifications

Shown at right is a sample channel list as would

be available from Channel . This is typically called

the channel list.

NOTE: The Channel key may display a channel list

or not, depending on what you have defined for

“Display Channel List” (see Menu Preferences

later in this section).

In order to access channels by using Channel on

the keypad, you must first create the channels.

See below.

To use a new source with the projector, a new channel must be added to projector

memory so that the projector will respond properly to an input signal from that source in

the future. A new channel can be created automatically, as described here, or it can be

copied from an existing channel and then edited as necessary (see Copying or Deleting

Channels later in this section).

When you select a direct input ( Input 1 , Input 2 , Input 3 , Input 4 , Input 5 or Input

6 ), any existing channels in the projector are searched for matching input and signal

parameters – this only occurs if Auto Source is enabled on these channels. If no match

to the incoming input signal is found in currently-defined channels, a new channel is

temporarily created based on factory-defined defaults for this type of signal. The channel

number assigned is the lowest available number from 01-50.

NOTES: 1) An automatic channel will be discarded unless one or more of its parameters

are changed and will not appear in the channel list (see below). 2) If two channels have

the same distinguishing source characteristics except for the reversal of sync connectors

(i.e., H-sync and V-sync, are switched), they are still defined as distinct channels. 3) You

cannot define a new channel without an incoming signal.

If the incoming signal

does match an existing channel, the image will be set up and

displayed as usual according to the parameters currently defined for that channel.

USING A CHANNEL: You can normally select a channel at any time by pressing Channel

(see right). If you want to prevent a channel from appearing in this list, you must edit the

channel as described in Channel Edit later in this section. Such a channel can still be

selected by entering its number as shown at right.

NOTES: 1) The current channel

is highlighted upon entering the

channel list, or, if this channel is not

displayed here, the first channel in

the list is highlighted. 2) Channels

created automatically do not

appear in the channel list unless a

parameter for the channel has been

changed.
