Using Your Projector
2-11
Cyclops F/X
Your projector comes with Cyclops F/X--software effects that you can use to make your presentations more interesting and effective. For more information on Cyclops F/X, see Chapter 4, Cyclops F/X.
ADVANCED FEATURES
There are several advanced features of the DP9100 that make giving presentations even easier. For example, you can program two keys on the remote control, assigning them specific options. You can also save setting profiles, allowing two presenters who use the same projector to save their custom settings.
Programming the Cyclops remote control
You can program two keys on the Cyclops remote control, the Prog 1 and Prog 2 keys, to perform commonly used actions or to access a setting that you frequently adjust. To program the Prog 1 and 2 keys, open the projector menus and choose Preferences. Choose the key you want to program (Prog 1 or Prog 2) and assign the feature or setting you want to access.
Note: If you want to set assign one of the Cyclops F/X effects to one of the programmable keys, you must select Host in the Preferences menu.
Saving a user profile
Different presenters have different styles. The DP9100 offers a way for two presenters to save their settings and recall them each time they give a presentation. To save the current video settings as a profile, open the projector menus and choose Advanced, User. When you exit the projector menus, your settings will be saved as the profile.
Note: Sense line and front/rear settings are not saved as part of the profile. Sense line settings are automatically set when you turn on the monitor that is connected to the projector.
When you want to use your profile, open the projector menus and choose User, Advanced, then select your profile (User A or User B). The settings take effect immediately.

Sense Lines
This appendix explains how to adjust the projector if you're having trouble connecting to a computer with no external monitor.
WHAT ARE SENSE LINES?
Certain display cards and video systems rely on sense line information from the monitor to correctly configure themselves for display resolution. The absence of sense line information causes some display cards to output a default video signal, and actually prevents some video cards from outputting video at all. [. . . ]
