PICTURE CONTROLS
The front panel offers complete controls of key pic-
ture adjustment parameters: Brightness, Contrast,
Tint, Color, Noise Reduction, and Detail.
To adjust the different controls simply press the but-
ton associated with the parameter to be adjusted and
toggle the value key up or down (see figure 5). The
LCD readout on the front panel provides a status
report with both numbers and a bar graph for setting
levels.
Presets
Ð Once the levels have been adjusted for
the best image they can be stored as one of four
presets. There are four present for each input
source, i.e. four for Video, Four for S-Video, etc.
To store, first adjust the image then press the Store
button. The next preset button pushed will store
those settings. The preset will automatically be
recalled the next time that input source is selected.
The Factor Preset button recalls all settings to
SMPTE reference standards. When aligning the pro-
jector for the first time, the VP301 should be in the
factory preset. Using an external test pattern from a
DVD, laserdisc, or pattern generator adjust the bright-
ness and contrast using the projectorÕs controls. Then
adjust Color, Tint, and Detail using the controls on the
VP301. Once completed, store the settings in one of
the presets.
To store presets using the On-Screen-Display (OSD)
with the infrared remote, first adjust the setting for
the best image possible, then use the function key to
scroll down to the Preset function. Use the value key
to select which preset to store the information. The
information will be stored either when the function
button is touched or when the OSD times off (after
approx. 10 seconds).
Select the different presets by pressing the Preset
button on the remote.

2)
Video
Ð refers to any composite NTSC video signal -
(e.g. VCRÕs, laserdisc players, cable boxes, etc.)
3)
S Video
Ð refers to any source that outputs S-Video
signals (DVD, S-VHS, satellite receivers, etc.). Using
the input allows one to realize all the benefits of
maintaining the separation of the luminance (picture)
and chrominance (color) signal through the video sig-
nal processing chain, thus avoiding rainbow patterns
and dot crawl.
4)
RGB
Ð refers to the incoming video signal broken
down to the individual red, green and blue format
more typically found in the professional and broad-
cast area.
