Please note the following important points regarding the Auto Acquire mode:
• If Auto Acquire is ON and a valid input is selected that does not have a saved
Input Config file associated with it, the system attempts to acquire the source and
save an Input Config file. This process may take a few moments.
• If an input is selected that does have a saved Input Config file associated with it,
the (blinking) source will transition to program after TAKE is pressed.
• When the system performs an Auto Acquire for Inputs 5 through 8, the PDS first
checks for a DVI signal. If not found, the system looks for a valid analog signal.
• If Auto Acquire is OFF and a valid input is selected (either with or without a
saved Input Config file), the system compares the library file to the input’s
incoming timing.
~ If the timings match, the system transitions to the input after TAKE is
pressed.
~ If the timings do not match, the “Invalid Signal” message appears, and
the system transitions to black after TAKE is pressed.

With PDS, the HDCP mode is essentially automatic. Provided that you connect an HDCP
compliant monitor, you can select and switch between unprotected sources and “protected”
HDCP sources (e.g., a Blu-Ray player) without restriction.
• Inputs 1 through 4 (analog) are unprotected sources.
• Inputs 5 through 8 (analog) are unprotected sources.
• Inputs 5 through 8 (digital) are protected when an HDCP source is connected.
Please note the following important points regarding HDCP operations:
• When the input signal is an HDCP source on DVI inputs 5 through 8 and a valid
HDCP monitor is connected, the following actions occur:
~ The PDS’s analog output is disabled.
~ You cannot store a logo from a “protected” source. However,
“unprotected” logos that are already stored in the system can be
switched to Program.
~ You cannot use the FRZ button.
Note
The Input Config file will only be saved if the "Auto Input
Save" mode is ON in the User Preference Menu.
Note
As a prerequisite, ensure that you have read the “A Word
About HDCP” section in Chapter 1 on page 4 prior to reading
this section.
