OPTICAL APERTURE - The optical aperture inside the projector controls the diameter
of the light beam passing through the system. With a fully open aperture (slide bar
default of “0”), the maximum amount of light passes through for maximum brightness
in your images. Increase the slide bar setting to reduce the aperture diameter and
maximize contrast ratio instead. Performance of aperture depends on the lens in use.
NOTE: Optical Aperture also appears in the lamp menu.
Aperture Manual Adjustment - A variable position manual aperture is present on the
1.2:1 and 1.1:1 lens. It may be used together with the internal electronic aperture to
increase the contrast ratio; noting a slight decrease in brightness when it is used. It is
recommended for highest brightness operation, under normal conditions, the manual
aperture is to be left open. See Aperture Manual Adjustment below for aperture
open/close and lock and unlock dial positions. NOTE: The lock/unlock dial position
allows you to open the aperture at a desired position and lock it in place.

SUBMENU OF ADVANCED IMAGE
SETTINGS
Use the options in the Simulation 3D
menu to make the timing adjustments
necessary for realistic simulation and
3D images.
NOTE: For complete 3D application
notes, refer to the separate Using 3D
in Mirage manual provided with the
Mirage projector.
FRAME DELAY MONITOR —For best
results, the value should remain fairly
constant, indicating that timing of input and output frames is locked; the Frame Delay
Monitor value should stay within 5-10 lines or so of the Frame Delay setting. If a
frame is lost or “dropped”, this value will cycle to maximum and jump to minimum
and then repeat, indicating that the frame input is no longer equal to the output. If the
signal is not locked, the values will change erratically; you can adjust the Frame delay
to attempt a correction.
NOTE: See separate Using 3D in Mirage manual provided for more information.
