ViewSonic PJD5153 - Switching Input Signal

24
Switching input signal
The projector can be connected to multiple devices at the same time. However, it can only
display one full screen at a time.
Be sure the Quick Auto Search function in the SOURCE menu is On if you want the
projector to automatically search for the signals.
You can also manually select the desired signal by
pressing one of the source selection keys on the
remote control, or cycle through the available input
signals.
1. Press Source. A source selection bar is
displayed.
2. Press / until your desired signal is
selected and press Enter.
Once detected, the selected source information
will be displayed on the screen for seconds. If
there are multiple devices connected to the
projector, repeat steps 1-2 to search for another
signal.
The brightness level of the projected image will
change accordingly when you switch between
different input signals. Data (graphic) "PC"
presentations using mostly static images are
generally brighter than "Video" using mostly moving
images (movies).
The input signal type affects the options available for
the Color Mode. See "Selecting a picture mode" on
page 28 for details.
Please see "Projector specifications" on page 53 for
the native display resolution of this projector. For best
display picture results, you should select and use an
input signal which outputs at this resolution. Any
other resolutions will be scaled by the projector
depending upon the 'aspect ratio' setting, which may
cause some image distortion or loss of picture clarity.
See "Selecting the aspect ratio" on page 27 for
details.
Changing HDMI input settings
In the unlikely event that you connect the projector
to a device (like a DVD or Blu-ray player) via the
projector’s HDMI input and the projected picture
displays wrong colors, please change the color space
to an appropriate one that fits the color space setting
of the output device.
To do this:
1. Open the OSD menu and go to the PICTURE > HDMI Settings menu.
2. Press Enter.
3. Highlight HDMI Format and press / to select a suitable color space according
to the color space setting of the output device connected.
