another source. This change can be virtually instantaneous, or slowed as desired so
that the current image appears to dissolve or “fade” into the new image.
Options for enabling and controlling PIP and Seamless Switching all reside in the
same menu. Note, however, that because both features utilize the projector’s double
processing capability, PIP and Seamless Switching cannot be used together. For
example, fading a pair of PIP images into a new display from a different source is not
possible.
For best PIP or Seamless Switching results, use two different signal types* as defined
below. Do not mix two signals of the same type.
Signal Type Description (Input Location)
#1 5 BNCs (RGBHV or YPbPr)
#2 DVI - I (analog or digital)
#3 Decoded signals (Input 3, Input 4, Composite video, S-Video, or any video
signal via Input 1 BNC connectors or via an analog option card).
#4 Analog Option Cards
#5 Digital Option Cards
#6 Digital Option Cards

HD interlaced sources are not recommended for the PIP window.
