OPERATION
DLV1280 DX User’s Manual
3-5
NOTES: 1) For extra long distances and/or harsh environments, you may prefer to
use an optional remote Two-Way Controller to control the projector. For operating
details, please see the Two-Way Controller User’s Manual included with this
accessory. 2) Old VistaGRAPHX “Roadie style” keypads can be used with this
projector, but the
Func key codes listed on the back are different and do not apply.
Keep in mind the following guidelines:
1)
Press keys one-at-a-time; there are no simultaneous key presses required.
2)
For any key having an “*” ( Power* , for example), hold the key for approximately 1
second in order to toggle the function with a single key press. For other keys (or
to use a “*” key in conjunction with
ON
or
OFF ), a momentary press similar to
a mouse click is sufficient.
3)
Press the “lightbulb key” to temporarily illuminate the keypad without sending
any other command.
4)
, , ON
, and
OFF
repeat their “arrow” actions when held down. For
other keys, release and press again to repeat an action. In a network, pause
between adjustments to ensure that the last projector can keep pace with the
commands.
5)
If you press a key while the projector is busy with another action, such as during
a power-up, the key press may not take effect.
When you turn on the projector it begins operating at presentation level, such as an
image from the most recently used source signal. The projector temporarily leaves
presentation level whenever you use the keypad to work with control settings, display
menus, or on-line help. For example, pressing
Menu
after startup displays the main
menu — presentation level is no longer active, although the image still appears in the
background. Press
Menu
again (or
Exit
) to return or leave the menu system and return
to presentation level.
Specific keypad commands are explained below:
Power ON/OFF
Press and hold for approximately 1 second to turn the projector on or off with a
single key press. Or press
Power*
followed immediately by
ON or OFF
if you want to
guarantee the correct toggle (useful if you are unsure of the present status).
NOTES: 1) Whenever the projector is turned off, the lamp cooling fans remain on for
about five minutes to cool the lamp. 2) It is a good idea to avoid turning a projector
back on until it has been off for a few minutes. Hot re-strikes of the lamp may reduce
lamp life.
