When a preset signal is input, this projector automatically detects the signal type. When the signal is registered in the preset memory, a suitable picture is displayed on the screen according to the signal type. The type of input signal is displayed in the INPUT SETTING menu. You can adjust the preset data through the INPUT SETTING menu. This projector also has 20 user memory locations for each INPUT A/B. You can register a new type of signal that is not preset. When an unpreset signal is input for the first time, the adjusted setting made using INPUT A/B in the INPUT SETTING menu is stored. When more than 20 user memory items are registered for each INPUT A/B, the newest memory item is automatically stored over the oldest one.
