21 c3X 1080 iNiTiAL SETTiNgS Reconfigures the projector to original factor y settings except Position, Orientation, Y/C Delay, Zoom and Focus (Fig. 28). MENUS LANgUAgE It allow to select the languages available for the On Screen Display menus. iNPUTS LiST In order to make the C3X1080 system increasingly flexible, the functions described below make it possible to modify the inputs selection menu and adapt it so that it matches the re- quirements of the user more closely. The main page displays all the inputs physically present on the projector. You can delete any inputs which are not in use. To do this, select the input in the pull down menu which appears when you press ◀, and choose whether to activate or deactivate the input (Fig.29). The deactivation or activation of the source results in automatic renumbering of the remaining active inputs. Active video signal sources (shown in the inputs selection menu) are distinguished by tick symbols. It can useful to identify the input with a user defined name rather than the type of signal (for example, with the name of the connected device). To do this, in the pull down menu select NAME and rename the source. This makes it easier to remember which source is con- nected to a given input; you can use up to 12 alphanumeric characters for the name (for further details, see ENTERING TEXT). ENTERiNg TEXT The text entr y menu in (Fig.30) makes it quick and easy to enter text. Cancel Confirm Edit source name ()?@ 1 ABC 2 DEF 3 GHI 4 JKL 5 MNO 6 PQRS 7 - + TUV 8 0 WXYZ 9 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Text input mode is same whether you are editing an existing name or entering a name for the first time. Characters can be inserted in any of the available positions (represented by horizontal lines). Use the ◀ and ▶ keys to move the cursor leftor right respectively. Press the number key corresponding to the character; pressing once selects the first character, twice, the second character and so on. The available characters are shown in the text insert menu that appears in this input mode. Once you have entered a character, move to the next space on the right to enter the next with the ▶ key on the remote control, and repeat the procedure. The same applies if the letter is associated with the same key as before. Use the ▲ key to switch from upper case to lower case cha- racters. Cancel errors with ▼ once you have selected the character in question. Once you have terminated the text input procedure confirm your text and save it by pressing the MENU+ key on the remote control. If you wish to cancel the modifications, press MENU- on the remote control. Fig.28 No Confirm?

GAMMA CORRECTION Successive pressing of the key in question (F1 or F2) makes it possible to select from among the available gamma curves. SOURCE iNfORMATiON When active (YES) each time the source is changed informa- tion is displayed relative to the signal type. If inactive, (NO) no information about the source is displayed. OSD BACKgROUND Determines the type of background for the On Screen Display (opaque transparent). OSD TiMEOUT Determines the On Screen Display timeout. The adjustment is made using the ◀ (decrease) and ▶ (increase) keys within a 6-200 second timeframe. OSD POSiTiON Allows the On Screen Display to be positioned in a particular area of the projected image. The OSD can be positioned using the arrow keys for fine adjustments or keys 1...9 on the remote control to select one of 9 preset positions. f1-f2 KEYS The remote control is equipped with two keys (F1 and F2) which are associated with various different functions. The screen has six options, one for each line, and two columns indicating the keys F1-F2. You can select F1 and F2 with the keys ◀ and ▶ on the remote control; select the function to assign to F1 or F2 with the keys ▼ and ▲. The function performed by the key is confirmed by the appea- rance of a dot on the corresponding column-row intersection (Fig 31). The following menu options are available. ZOOM Accesses the lens zoom, so that ◀ and ▶ zoom into and out The FOCUS setting drives the motorized focus to focus the image; precise focus should enable you to see ever y pixel in the image when close to the screen. FOCUS This option enables you to use the ◀ and ▶ keys to focus the image. MAGNIFICATION Activates the electronic zoom, the keys ◀ and ▶ zoom into the image. If the key is pressed a second time you will activate PA N mode in which the ◀ and ▶, ▼ and ▲ keys enable you to pan over the magnified image. At the thirr pression of ▼ key, the system reconfigures the projector to original visualisation settings. BLANK Switches off the video signal and displays a black page. As soon as the key is pressed an OSD indication lasting a few se- conds confirms that the function has been activated. Pressing any further keys on the remote control restores the previous conditions.

MEMORiES
The main picture parameters can be saved in discrete sets
of values called “Memories” so that they can be subsequently
applied as a group using a single command.
There are 6 distinct Memories (Memor y 1, Memor y 2, Memor y
3) for each of the 8 signal types managed:
making a total of 24 different available Memories.
The image parameters that can be saved/recalled by the
Memories management system are the following:
image Picture
BRIGHTNESS ASPECT
CONTRAST COLOUR TEMPERATURE
COLOUR OVERSCAN
TINT GAMMA
SHARPNESS
FILTER
NOISE REDUCTION
Some of these parameters may not be available for certain
inputs or certain input signals, as indicated in Tables 4 and 5.
The menu page for the Memories management functions is
activated by pressing the key on the remote control.
The operations that can be performed on each memor y
selected are described here below.

SAVE MEMORY
To save the image parameter current values in memor y 1,
move the cursor to line ‘1’ with the ▼ and ▲ ‚ keys and open
the pull-down menu by pressing the ◀ key (Fig.33). Now select
the corresponding drop-down menu (◀ key). Select the line
‘Save initial settings’.
To confirm the operation, the message ‘Initial settings saved in
Memor y 1’ is shown at the bottom of the display and the letter
“I” appears to the left of the memor y name.
RENAME A MEMORY
All Memories can be named. To assign a name (with a ma-
ximum length of 12 alphanumeric characters) to a Memor y,
select the option ‘Rename’ from the corresponding pull-down
menu. The text is input in accordance with the method descri-
bed in the heading TEXT INSERT.
RESTORE CURRENT VALUES
When you enter the MEMORIES menu a copy of the current settings
is saved in a temporar y memor y (designated by 0 - AUTO). Once
one or more memories have been recalled, you can restore
the settings that were effective at the moment the Memories
menu was accessed by selecting Memor y ‘0’(0 - AUTO). Note that
this operation must be executed before the Memories’ menu
page disappears (30 seconds after the final operation with the
remote control or keypad). The next time it appears, in fact,
the temporar y memor y will contain new information that takes
account of any Memories that were selected in the penultimate
access to the ‘MEMORIES page.
Memor y 0 can be used even when you do not wish to enable
Memories management for the signal in use. Once Memor y 0
has been selected, when a source is chosen, the settings that
were effective at the time the Memor y was previously recalled
will be automatically applied.
24 c3X 1080 10 CLEANiNg AND MAiNTENANCE The projector does not require internal adjustment. There are no user serviceable parts inside the projector. To replace the bulb or any other repairs, contact your local service centre. To clean the outer cover of the screen use a soft cloth and moisten slightly if necessar y with water and a small amount of neutral soap. Do not rub the rear panel markings. The lens may be cleaned with a ver y soft, non-abrasive small brush, in order to remove dust particles.
