About backup input

The “Backup Input” function allows the user to set up two input sources with the same timing specification.

Upon connection loss of one input source, the projector automatically switches to the backup source.

This function can be useful for the installations requiring uninterrupted displaying of the content source, such as live show, exhibition, and critical control room.
