6.1 Controlling multiple projectors with remote control ID (RCID) The remote control can be operated either in ‘broadcast mode’, or ‘individual mode’. When several projectors are in use in an installation, individual control may be convenient. Individual control is available either by wired remote control, using the data-jack, or by using an individual number code. For individual control, first set the individual RC ID code using the projector menu system, see the SETTINGS sub menu.
english 6.3 Using dual head input For extended flexibility to connect high resolution sources with a pixel clock over 165 MHz, the projector is supporting a dual head input mode. In this mode the left and right half of the image can be connected to the DVI 1/DVI 2 or HDMI 1/HDMI 2 interfaces respectively (Figure 6-1). To enable this mode, go to the menu INSTALLATION > DUAL HEAD SETUP. Side-by-side is the only available option at this time. 1 2 Figure 6-1.
X-PORT DCC120 has advanced capabilities for handling synchronization of multiple projectors in a 3D installation. 6.4.1 Synchronous frame sequential A typical synchronous frame sequential 3D setup is shown in Figure 6-2. Figure 6-2. Synchronous frame sequential 3D In this case IGs are synchronized and 3D sync from the source is connected from the DIN connector on the IG to the BNC sync-in connector. The source 3D sync is then sent to every projector in the setup. See table below.
english 6.4.3 Synchronous side-by-side Figure 6-3 illustrates a typical synchronous side-by-side 3D setup. Figure 6-3. Synchronous side-by-side setup Since the sources are synchronized in this setup, synchronization management is not required in the projector. The table below shows the recommended system settings.
In asynchronous side-by-side 3D, the projectors utilize the BNC sync-in and sync-out connectors to distribute a system wide display sync. This display sync is used by all projectors to perform frame rate conversion on the input signals if necessary. Figure 6-4 illustrates this setup. Figure 6-4. Asynchronous side-by-side setup As seen in Figure 6-4, an extra cable is connected between BNC sync-out on projector 1 and BNC sync-in on projector 2.
english 6.5 Setting custom color space and digital level The projector will automatically try to set the correct color space and digital drive level based on information from the source. To manually override the automatically detected color space and digital level go to menu entry PICTURE -> ADVANCED. Set the “digital color space and level” to manual and select your color space and digital drive level. 6.6 Disabling IR receivers The projector has 3 IR receivers as shown in chapter “4.1 Overview”.
Using DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling) The projector is enabled for DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling). When enabled, the projector will automatically switch to standby mode after a specified time if there is no valid source present at its inputs. When a valid source is reconnected, the projector will start up again. To enable or disable DPMS, go to menu entry SETTINGS > DPMS. The desired DPMS timeout is set in the DPMS > DPMS TIMEOUT menu entry. DPMS is disabled by default. 6.

The projector has power features for picture optimization. This chapter describes details in using these features. All color calibration is done using projectiondesign’s proprietary RealColor™ solution. 7.1 Calibration data All projectiondesign projectors are measured and calibrated with high precision equipment at the factory for the best out-of-box experience. Over the lifetime of the lamps the characteristics of the projector might change slightly. The same applies when replacing lamps. 7.1.
english 7.2 Working with RealColor™ 7.2.1 Setting the BrilliantColor™ correctly The BrilliantColor™ setting is used to control how color boost is applied in the image. It can operate in four modes: • Computer Native (Default): This give max brightness and color boost. Recommended for non-video applications, like CAD and visualization. • Computer Balanced: Gives the same brightness as Computer Native, but has a less aggressive color boost profile.
Gamma The projector features a set of 6 built in gamma curves: Film 2.2, Film 2.8, Video 1, Video 2, Computer 1, Computer 2. The different gamma curves are displayed below. The names of the curves are descriptive for their recommended use. Use any of the computer curves for video applications will results in significant image noise. Figure 7-1.

english Figure 7-4. Video 2 gamma Figure 7-5. Computer 1 gamma Figure 7-6.
RealColor™ operating modes Before any color correction is applied to the image, the feature must be enabled. Go to menu entry PICTURE > REALCOLOR > COLOR CORRECTION to enable RealColor™. RealColor™ can operate in 3 modes: • Color temperature/white point correction only. • Red, Green, Blue, White correction. In this mode optimal color coordinates for Cyan, Magenta and Yellow will be computed automatically. • Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, White.
english 7.2.5 Defining the system color gamut All colors visible to the eye are defined by CIE Chart in Figure 7-7. The boundary of the colors the projector can display is called the system color gamut. The white triangle in Figure 7-7 is an example of a system color gamut. By default the projector has the widest possible system gamut, which is limited by the color wheel selected for the system. The VizSim color wheel has the widest color gamut and the High Brightness color wheel has the smallest.
8.1 Software upgrades In order to upgrade your projector, please follow the method and sequence described below. • You will need a USB memory stick set up with a FAT-file system to perform this upgrade • Access the upgrade software from the following web-address; www.projectiondesign.com • Download and save the firmware.
english 8.2 Lamp replacement (UHP units only) The LAMP indicators on the keypad will turn red when lamp life expires or if the lamp fails. Change the lamp when lifetime expires. Always replace lamp with the same type and rating. USE ORIGINAL LAMPS ONLY. The lamp includes an electronic lamp timer that is tracking the life time of the lamp.
