III. SPECIAL CONTROL NOTE:
The Sony has configuration options that must be set properly at the time of installation:
DEVICE INDEX SWITCH
: The Panel codes assume the projector network ID to 01.
To set the projector to 01:
Set the Device Index switches below the projector inputs so the first switch is 0
and the second switch is 1.
RS-232C/422A
: The projector control port must be set to RS-232C.
To set the projector to RS-232C control:
Locate the switch labeled

below the projector inputs.
Be sure the projector is set to RS-232C (left position).

To specify signal types:
Summon onscreen menus using the remote control or Panel Hidden Functions.
Navigate to the

submenu.
Select the Input whose type you wish to specify.
Set the input to the appropriate value.
POWER SAVING
: The Sony
Power Saving
feature will automatically shut the projector off after ten
minutes if it does not receive a valid input signal. You should disable this option in the onscreen menus –
especially if the installation does not include a power current sensor.
To disable
Power Saving mode
:
Summon onscreen menus using the remote control or Panel Hidden Functions.
Navigate to the

is set to

default).
