same functions, but apply a different look to certain effects (for 
example, a different stamp or pointer).

box in the upper left corner of the ELP Link III main dialog box.

keyboard. Because these assignments remain in effect until you 
clear them, you can customize the keyboard of a computer that you 
frequently use with the projector. You can then use the keyboard 
instead of the Effects keys on the remote control.
