2.7 Memory 

Setup 

This section explains how to set up projector memories to improve the performance of the projector's ASI and 
ASR features.  If you are not familiar with setup memories, read 0, prior to memory setup; in particular, read 
Section3.3, Setup Memories, and the ASI with Save and Turn ASR On/Off entries in Section 3.6, Utility Features.  
If the projector's setup memories are properly set up, the projector will be easier to use and operate. 

Note: Memory setup should be performed when the projector is in its final operating position.  If the physical 
position of the projector changes, memory setup must be repeated. 

Here is a brief summary of the setup memory, ASR, and ASI discussions in 0 

2.7.1  About Setup Memories 

The projector has 80 setup memories for storing display settings of different sources.  Multiple setup memories 
are required since display settings usually vary amongst sources.  There are two types of setup memories: Input 
and Recall.  Both memory types store the same parameters.  The only difference is that Input memories store 
display settings for a particular physical input (e.g., switcher 0, slot 1) while Recall memories can be used with 
any input.  

At any one time, one setup memory is the current setup memory.  The display settings in the current setup 
memory are used for the current display.  When a source is selected by entering its input number, the Input 
memory for the selected input becomes the current setup memory*.  If a Recall memory is selected, it becomes 
the current setup memory*.  Display adjustments are automatically saved in the setup memory which is current at 
the time of adjustment (unless the setup memory is locked). 

Note: 

If the ASR feature (explained below) is turned on during setup memory selection, the selected memory 
may not be the current setup memory.   

To display the Recall memories stored in the projector, press [

memories.  (Unused setup memories are not displayed).
