Sources>Power-up Source: this determines which source the projector
checks first for active video during power-up.
Sources>Autosource: When Autosource is not checked, the projector
defaults to the source selected in Power-up Source. If no source is found, a
blank screen displays. When Autosource is checked, Power-up Source
determines which source the projector defaults to at startup. If no signal is
present, the projector checks the sources in order until a source is found or
until power down. When Autosource is selected, the Source Enable fea-
ture indicates which sources the projector attempts to lock onto. You can use
the Source Enable feature to eliminate certain sources from this search,
which will speed the search. By default, the check boxes for all sources are
checked. Uncheck a source box to eliminate it from the search. When Auto-
source is not checked, the projector defaults to Computer 1 initially, then
defaults to whatever source is selected in the Power-up Source menu. To
display another source, you must manually select one by pressing the
Source button on the remote or keypad. This cycles through all the sources
