Power

The Red LED to the left of the STANDBY/ON Push-button lights to indicate the MDLP2 is in Standby mode. To Switch ON the MDLP2, 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 MDLP2 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 MDLP2 has not yet been performed refer to page 14 at this time.

Source Selection

The default Source Select for the MDLP2 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 MDLP2 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 Menu System. The

On-Screen Menu System is inter-

active 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 Menu System by perform- ing the Display Installation Orien-

tation, Display Vertical Keystone

Adjustment and Remote Control Configuration. All of the remain-

ing menu options are performed in a similar manner.
