Control Panel

The Control Panel allows you to adjust major aspects of the visual display, as well as the volume
of the internal (or a connected external) sound system. The volume settings for individual input
sources are retained. In other words, if you set the audio level differently for each device, these
settings are preserved when you switch back and forth among devices.

NOTE: Be careful not to press the Control Panel buttons in quick succession. If the projector is
busy processing a request (indicated by the appearance of an hourglass), do not press another
Control Panel button until it has completed its processing.

Control Panel Features

1 Display Source Button

Press this button to select the input
display source for the projector: choose
from the internal computer, a VCR or
DVD player, or a connected guest
laptop. The LED indicators to the right of
this button indicate the current display
source. Exercise some patience when
using this button: You should expect a
very slight delay between LED
illumination and source change.

2 Volume

Press the arrow buttons to adjust the
volume for the current input source. Audio
settings are retained for each source.

3 Brightness

Press the arrow buttons to brighten
or darken the projected image.

4 Contrast

Press the arrow buttons to increase
or decrease the level of contrast in
the projected image.

5 Projector Standby Button

Press this button to put the projector
into standby mode from its active
state. In standby mode, the projector
remains powered up, but the lamp is
off. Projector power should always
remain on, unless you will not use the
3000i for an extended period.

If the lamp is on when you press the
Projector Standby button, the
projector enters into a five-minute
period of reversible standby. If you
press the Projector Standby button
again during this period, the system
is instantly restored. After five
minutes, the lamp powers down and
full standby mode initiates.

The green LED indicator immediately
to the left of this button indicates the
current status of the lamp, as shown
in the table below:
