About the Preset Memory No.

This projector has 43 types (VPL-CX100/ CX120/CX125/CX150/CX155) or 44 types (VPL-CW125) of preset data for input signals (the preset memory). When a preset signal is input, the projector automatically detects the signal type and recalls the data for the signal from the preset memory to adjust it to an optimum picture. The memory number and signal type of that signal are displayed on the Information menu (see page 44). You can also adjust the preset data through the Signal menu.

This projector has 20 types of user memories for each of Input A and Input B into which you can save the setting of the adjusted data for an unpreset input signal.

When an unpreset signal is input for the first time, a memory number is displayed as 0. When you adjust the data of the signal using the Signal menu, it will be registered in the projector. If more than 20 user memory items are registered, the newest memory always overwrites the oldest one.

See the chart on page 58 to find if the signal is registered in the preset memory.

Since the data for the following signals is recalled from the preset memory, you can

use these preset data items by adjusting “H Size.” Make finer adjustments by adjusting “Shift.”
