Control Parameter Projector Options
These Control parameter options remotely access and operate the internal projector’s menu
system
.
Control Option Description

Projector Up arrow
Note: These options control the directional buttons
on the projector menu display and cannot
be activated until you set the Dimmer

The following options are always active and do not require the dimmer to be at zero
Projector Floor Orientation
These commands activate the projector’s setting for specific mounting
or projection alternatives.
Once set, these commands maintain their value until reset even after
shutdown and re-homing. For example, if the Control parameter is set to
switch the unit to Ceiling orientation, then the unit will remain in Ceiling
orientation until another command is sent to switch back to Floor. This
allows the Control parameter to revert to another value without losing
the orientation or mirroring status.

Input from External RGBHV to
Projector
Video input can be utilized with either RGBHV or VGA but not both. You
can select between RGBHV and VGA in the menu system, (see
“DMX_Control Screen” on page 3-27). RGBHV is the factory default.
Before using DMX to change DL.3 or DL.2 inputs, you must enable the
Projector Input by DMX option in the menu system (see
“Set_Projector
Screen” on page 3-31) or through the CMA (see “DL.3 and DL.2 Media
Server Configuration Options” on page 16-208).Once the selection is
made, allow about 10 seconds for the change to take effect.
