NOTES: 1) If no user curves have been defined and downloaded to projector
memory, only the 2.2 default gamma curve is available here – adjust as desired using
gamma in the main Image Settings menu. 2) Some graphic material will look best with
the video setting while some video material is best with the graphic setting.
SELECT COLOR ADJUSTMENT: In “Select Color Adjustment”,
choose an overall color palette for all images. The “Max
Drives” factory default simply drives all three colors at their
maximum level so that they are fully on and cannot be
changed. The two other pre-defined color adjustment
choices—SD Video and HD Video—apply a color gamut
optimized for video sources (standard or high-definition).
Alternatively, you can specify a color temperature. This
enables the adjacent Color Temperature slide bar and applies
its current setting (default = 6500K). If none of the pre-
defined “Select Color Adjustment” options or color temperatures suits your
application, select one of four color gamuts previously defined by a user (User 1, 2, 3,
4). A “User” option applies a customized color performance in which the user has
precisely set the hue and intensity of each color component in the Color Adjustment
by X/Y or Color Saturation submenus. It is most often needed with multiple-projector
applications. Select the color adjustment producing the best color accuracy for your
application and installation.
To configure a “User” color adjustment (gamut), use either the Color Adjustment by
X/Y or Color Saturation submenu.
NOTES: 1) “Color Temperature” defaults to 6500K until changed. All four “User”
options default to SD Video unless the user has redefined them. 2) Factory-defined
color primaries, which ensure consistent color gamut from projector-to-projector, can
be calibrated in the Service menu only. If you suspect alteration, the factory settings
can be recovered with selection of “Reset to Factory Defaults?” in the Color Primary
Settings submenu within the Service menu (password-protected).
COLOR TEMPERATURE — Adjust to apply a specific and accurate color temperature to
all displays. Color temperatures are expressed in degrees Kelvin (3200-9300K), and
utilize different combinations of the projector’s original native color primaries to
produce a “coloration” or cast (reddish or bluish) in images—the lower the
temperature, the more reddish the cast; the higher the temperature, the more bluish the
cast. Note that the slide bar is enabled only if you have a source connected and have
selected “Color Temperature” in the adjacent “Select Color Adjustment” pull-down
list in the Advanced Image Settings menu.
