Input modes and settings
Input mode detection
The projector can automatically detect the following parameters from the incoming 
video signal:
line frequency
frame rate
interlace / progressive
From these parameters the projector can determine input mode, for example:
 input source  horizontal  vertical     mode
composite 15.7KHz  50.0Hz = NTSC
RGB1 31.5KHz 60.0Hz = SDTV 480p
DVI 31.25KHz 50.0Hz = SVGA
When you select a new input source, the green LED near the input connector will 
fl ash, and the searching message will be displayed.
When the input mode has been detected, the LED will show continuously and the 
auto detect message will be displayed, for example:
If the input mode cannot be detected, the LED will continue to fl ash, to show that the 
input is still selected. However, the following message will be displayed:
Mode library and mode history
Once an input mode has been successfully determined for the fi rst time, a set of 
default modal settings (picture, geometry and colour), will be copied from the mode 
library to the mode history. •

4. Controlling the projector  Digital Projection TITAN HD-500, HD-250 User Manual
Any subsequent changes that you make to the modal settings will be saved in the 
mode history,  with the input mode.
If a new signal is detected, the mode history for the previous signal will be saved in 
the mode history, and the new mode added, along with a new set of default settings. 
Thus the projector builds up a history of input modes, and the required settings for 
each mode, depending on actual useage.
Input presets
It may be the case that you need to save more than one set of modal settings for 
the same input mode. For example you may have more than one video player or a 
selection of fi lms with different characteristics.
In that case, the current input source and modal settings can be saved to any one of 
16 input presets, for recall when the same input source is used again.
When you recell a preset, the projector switches to the saved input source, and 
redetects the input mode before applying the saved modal settings.
Notes
  In normal use, there should be 
adequate  memory to record 
all likely modal settings in the 
mode history.
  However, in exceptional 
circumstances, the least used 
settings will be deleted, to allow 
a new mode to be added.
  A preset can be applied only to 
the same mode for which it was 
created. If the detected input 
mode does not match, then 
settings from the mode history 
or mode library will be applied.

Keypad layout
The controls on the keypad are identical to those at the top of the remote control, 
and are described on the following pages.
Projector status indicators
The indicators on the control panel are as follows:
Power off = NO POWER
 green = normal RUNNING mode amber = STANDBY mode
Shutter yellow = CLOSED green = OPEN
Error off = NO ERROR
 fl ashing = ERROR (temperature) steady = ERROR (voltage)
IR blue fl ash = Remote control command received
Lamp 1 off = OFF

 fl ashing green/amber  = LAMP COOL-DOWN or WARM-UP
Lamp 2 off = OFF
 fl ashing red = LAMP ERROR green = ON (100%) amber = (80 - 99%)
 fl ashing green/amber  = LAMP COOL-DOWN or WARM-UP
Notes
  Many features are controlled 
from the menus using the menu 
navigation keys on the remote 
control or keypad.
 For more information about 
using the menus, see later in 
this section, Using the menus.
  Some of the menu features, for 
example brightness, contrast 
and input preset operations, can 
be accessed directly using the 
control keys at the bottom of 
the remote control.
  Other features, eg zoom and 
focus, are controlled using the 
control keys at the top of the 
remote control and keypad.
 For more information about 
using the control keys, see 
later in this section, Using the 
control keys.
 The Lamp 2 indicator applies 
only to the HD-500. The HD-
250 has only one lamp.

Notes
  Closing the shutter produces 
a better black than simply 
removing the signal, as the 
light source will be completely 
blocked by the shutter blade.
  When the OSD is OFF:
  -  all menu navigation keys are 
disabled.
  - keys such as 
 BRI 
(brightness) will still function, 
but the slider bars will not be 
visible on screen.
  When any of the three Lens 
adjustment keys is pressed, the 
blue Transmit indicator on the

adjustment.
  - to end the adjustment before 
10 seconds has elapsed, press

Notes
  The magnify feature utilises a 
digital zoom. Used with the pan 
control, this can be used to:
  - enlarge a section of the image
  - enable the use of multiple 
projectors to construct a large 
image from tiles.
  The pan control is available 
only when the image has been 
magnifi ed.
  If the OSD moves off screen 
due to a change in image size, 
then pressing the size key will 
restore its readability.
  When fresh batteries are 
inserted in the remote control 
it will default to address 00. 
Remote control 00 is a master 
control,  able to control all 
projectors.
  If two or more projectors are set 
to the same address, they can 
be controlled from one remote 
control, provided they are 
connected by cable or in range 
of the infra red.
