6.4.1.1 Activating the PIP
You can the PIP feature (indicated by an illuminated PIP front panel button) in any
of the following ways:

Press and hold (for about 2 seconds) the front panel PIP button

Press the PIP button on the IR remote control transmitter (see Section 7.4 )

Access the OSD menu, select SETUP>Operation Mode>PIP/Single Mode
and then in the PIP menu select the PIP type

Via the Web pages (see Section 7.3.3 )
6.4.1.2 Selecting the PIP Source
To select a PiP source you have to set the VP-790 to any of the PiP display mode
configurations. From the PIP menu, select the PIP source.
6.5 The Multi-unit Screen
Multiple screens can be set in a matrix to provide a larger display that provides a
resolution that is higher than that of a single display. Each display is controlled by
one VP-790 unit. Each VP-790 unit gets the same graphics or video input signal via
a distribution amplifier and outputs the part of the image to its corresponding
display (defined in the Multi-unit OSD screen). In the matrix display the individual
projections usually overlap to give a uniform intersection. The overlapping regions
are illuminated by multiple projectors and are brighter than non-overlapping
regions. For a uniform brightness over the total display, the brightness in the
overlapping regions has to be reduced electronically.
PIP functionality is not supported in the Multi-unit operation mode
due to the higher bandwidth requirements of the video processing.
When using multiple VP-790 units to drive a matrix display, it is
essential that all VP-790 units are frame locked, otherwise motion
tear will be observed at the boundaries of the image processed by
each VP-790. The processing mode should be identical for all the
units as well (see Section 6.7 ).
