Multiple Output Mode

The default configuration uses a single output mode for all inputs and input memories. This
works well for fixed pixel displays. However, for CRT projectors, and some fixed pixel projector
configurations, such as when a movable Anamorphic-lens is used, having more than one output
mode may be desirable. For example, in this case, 16:9 source material is viewed with a different
output aspect ratio than 2.35:1 material.

After the first output configuration is programmed, and saved, select multiple output mode
(MENU

→ OUT → MODE → INDEP OK). This enables eight output configurations.

NOTE:

When multiple-output-mode is enabled, all input memories, including the HD

input “per-resolution” sub-memories, are set to output configuration 0. So, at

that point, changes to the output setup still affect all the input memories.

Select a new Output Configuration Number before making changes if they

are not supposed to affect all memories.

To create a new output configuration, select an input and input memory to be changed. Then
select a different output configuration number (e.g. MENU

→ IN → OUTSEL → 1 OK). For SD

inputs, there is a single output configuration selection. However, for HD capable inputs, each
memory has four resolution “sub-memories” (PC, 480i/480p/576i/576p, 720p, 1080i). The PC
memory is used for any single input resolution other than those listed above. For these HD
inputs, when Multiple-Output-Mode is enabled, the output-configuration numbers for each of
these is listed as four numbers separated by a “/” in the order shown above. The output-
configuration selection can be made for all four submemories independent of input resolution.

NOTE:

Each HD input submemory must be configured independently

while the respective input resolution is active.

As an example consider a system with two sources, a DVD player and a set top box. It is desired
that the output resolution be 960p when the DVD is the source, 960p output when the source is
the satellite receiver and it is receiving SD material (480i, 480p, 576i or 576p), and 1080p when
the satellite receiver is receiving 720p or 1080i material. This can be achieved as follows (this
example assumes that the Lumagen is at factory default state and that the set top box is set to
output at the source’s native resolution – i.e. 480i or 480p for SD source, 720p for 720p source
and 1080i for 1080i source). Do the following steps:

1. Select 960p output resolution and configure.
2. Select multiple-output mode
3. View a 720p or 1080i set top box source channel
4. Change the 720p submemory output configuration to 1 (see page 19)
5. Change the 1080i submemory output configuration to 1 (see page 19)
6. With a 720p or 1080i source from the satellite, select 1080p output and configure
7. Save the configuration

After this, when the DVD player is selected the output will be 960p. When the satellite is selected
and it is outputting 480i, 480p, 576i or 576p the output will be 960p. When the satellite is
selected and it is outputting 720p or 1080i the output will be 1080p.
