Power

The Red LED to the left of the STANDBY/ON Push-but- ton lights to indicate the MDLP1 is in Standby mode. To Switch ON the MDLP1, press the STANDBY/ON Push- button on the Projector Control Panel or the Projector ON Push-button using the Remote Control. The Green LED to the right of the STANDBY/ON Push-button lights to indi- cate the MDLP1 is ON. Refer to figures 14 and 15.

Notes: 1. It is normal for the projector lamp warm up period to last about a minute before an image appears on the screen.

2.If the Initial Setup for the MDLP1 has not yet been performed refer to page 14 at this time.

Source Selection

The default Source Select for the MDLP1 Projector is the COMPonent 1 Input. There is an additional Component Video Input (COMP 2) along with two HDMI Inputs. Select the desired source using the push-buttons located on the Projector Control Panel or on the PROJ INPUT Push- buttons located on the Remote Control. Refer to figures 14 and 15.

Note: Whenever possible use HDMI connections between the source device output to the MDLP1 Input. This will yield better image quality, as the video signal will go through one less analog to digital conver- sion process and possibly one less digital to analog conversion process as well.

 

Image Adjustments and Setting changes

 

All of the electronic based image adjustments and pro-

 

cessing settings are performed by using the extensive

 

On-Screen Menuing System. The

 

On-Screen Menuing System is in-

 

teractive and the ability to change

 

a given setting is dependent on

 

the Input selected, the presence

 

of a video signal for that input,

 

the Picture Mode selected and are

 

automatically saved for the cur-

 

rently selected video input. When

 

a menu item is “grayed out” it

 

can not be changed until either

 

another Input is selected, a signal

 

is present or a different Picture

 

mode is selected.

 

The selection of a menu item

 

and the available choices/adjust-

 

ments are performed by using the

 

Navigation (◄LEFT, ►RIGHT,

 

▲UP or ▼DOWN) Push-buttons

 

along with the ENTER/SELECT

 

Push-buttons located on the Pro-

 

jector Control Panel and/or using

 

the Remote Control Push-buttons.

 

The following examples

 

will illustrate how to use the

 

On-Screen Menuing System by

 

performing the Display Installa-

 

tion Orientation, Display Vertical
