Projector remote control type B (application 1)

This remote control has only two input buttons — one for the RGB inputs and one for the S-video and composite video inputs. Each of these buttons contains one command that causes the projector to toggle between inputs.

•Program the command from the projector remote control’s Computer or RGB button onto the MLC’s PC button.

•Program the command that is on the projector remote control’s Video button onto the MLC’s Video button.

The MLC now has one command each on its PC and Video buttons. You must still repeatedly press an input button to switch between selected sources; however, the button actually contains only one command (a projector input toggle command).
