Section 3: Operation
Shown at right is a sample channel list as would be available from Channel . This is typically called the channel list.
NOTE: The Channel key may display a channel list or not, depending on what you have defined for “Display Channel List” (see Menu Preferences later in this section).
In order to access channels by using on the keypad, you must first create the channels. See below.
Channel List
Creating a New f To use a new source with the projector, a new channel must be added to projector
Channel | memory so that the projector will respond properly to an input signal from that source | |||||||||||||||||
– AUTOMATIC – | in the future. A new channel can be created automatically, as described here, or it can | |||||||||||||||||
| be copied from an existing channel and then edited as necessary (see Copying or | |||||||||||||||||
| Deleting Channels later in this section). | |||||||||||||||||
| When you select a direct input ( Input 1 , Input 2 , Input 3 , Input 4 , Input 5 ), any existing channels in | |||||||||||||||||
| the projector are searched for matching input and signal parameters – this only occurs | |||||||||||||||||
| if Auto Source is enabled on these channels. If no match to the incoming input signal | |||||||||||||||||
| is found in | |||||||||||||||||

| NOTES: 1) An automatic channel will be discarded unless one or more of its | |||||||||||||||||
| parameters are changed, and will not appear in the channel list (see below). 2) If two | |||||||||||||||||
| channels have the same distinguishing source characteristics except for the reversal | |||||||||||||||||
| of sync connectors (i.e., | |||||||||||||||||
| distinct channels. 3) You cannot define a new channel without an incoming signal. | |||||||||||||||||
| If the incoming signal does match an existing channel, the image will be set up and | |||||||||||||||||
| displayed as usual according to the parameters currently defined for that channel. | |||||||||||||||||
