Figure 3-17. Channel Setup Menu

To display the Channel Setup menu, press 3 or highlight Channel Setup and press

ENTER or . The Channel Setup menu appears with the active channel highlighted.

WHAT APPEARS IN THE CHANNEL SETUP MENU? This menu lists all channels defined so far and indicates where they are connected on the input panel.

The far left column lists channel numbers currently defined. The values in the far right columns indicate horizontal and

vertical frequencies — if someone has defined a name for this channel, it appears here instead. Remaining columns contain details pertaining to each channel setup, such as its switcher

number (always 0 = projector), slot location, a variety of icons indicating access to each channel, and an abbreviated description of each signal type.

Signal Type Abbreviations: The Channel Setup menu identifies signal types in a shortened form. These descriptors indicate what signal information the projector uses to identify a match for a given channel, and are preceded by either an “i” (for interlaced signals) or “p” (for progressive signals).

When used with the DHD Controller, the HDMI output signal is either “pDig” or “iDig.”

Unlocking Channels: Channels are pre-configured at the Runco factory for use with the DHD Controller, and are locked to prevent the factory settings from being over-written accidentally. For 1080i and 1080p digital signals, there are separate channels for each aspect ratio and “ISF” memory preset (day and night).

Before proceeding with calibration, unlock the currently-active channel so that any changes you make are stored in that channel.

To unlock a channel:

1.Select Channel Setup from the Main Menu to display the Channel Setup menu.

2.The active channel should be highlighted. Press ENTER to go to the Channel Edit submenu.
