4. Controlling the projector
For important information about how to control the projector when Input 8 is being used, see the final pages of Section 4.
Any subsequent changes that you make to the modal settings will be saved in the
mode history, with the input mode.
If a new signal is detected, the mode history for the previous signal will be saved in
the mode history, and the new mode added, along with a new set of default settings.
Thus the projector builds up a history of input modes, and the required settings for
each mode, depending on actual useage.
Input presets
It may be the case that you need to save more than one set of modal settings for
the same input mode. For example you may have more than one video player or a
selection of films with different characteristics.
In that case, the current input source and modal settings can be saved to any one of
16
input presets
, for recall when the same input source is used again.
When you recell a preset, the projector switches to the saved input source, and
redetects the input mode before applying the saved modal settings.

Notes
The
input mode detection
and
mode library described here do
not apply to Input 8. For more
information, see the final pages
of this section.
In normal use, there should be
adequate memory to record
all likely modal settings in the
mode history.
However, in exceptional
circumstances, the least used
settings will be deleted, to allow
a new mode to be added.
For more information about
presets, see
Input Menu, later
in this section.
A preset can be applied only to
the same mode for which it was
created. If the detected input
mode does not match, then
settings from the mode history
or mode library will be applied.
