DOT PHASE

About the memory function The adjustment data for 48 types of input signals are preset at the factory (preset memory). When a signal is input to the projector, the signal type is automatimally detected and the data for the signal is called from the memory to display an optimum picture. The data can be adjusted in the INPUT SETTING menu and the adjusted data will be saved as user memory. When you save more than 200 user memories, the newest one always overwrites the oldest one. The saved user memory number is displayed in the INPUT SETTING menu as t NO. ss. When an RGB signal other than the preset signals is input to the projector, the memory number is displayed as 0 and the closest option is automatically selected from the preset 48 types of signals.
