Adjusting Tint
The higher the value, the more reddish the picture becomes. The lower the value, the 
more greenish the picture becomes.
Adjusting Sharpness
The higher the value, the sharper the picture becomes. The lower the value, the softer the 
picture becomes.
Adjusting Brilliant Color
This feature utilizes a new color-processing algorithm and system level enhancements to 
enable higher brightness while providing truer, more vibrant colors in picture. It enables a 
greater than 50% brightness increase in mid-tone images, which are common in video and 
natural scenes, so the projector reproduces images in realistic and true colors. If you 
prefer images with that quality, select On. If you don’t need it, select Off.
On is the default and recommended selection for this projector. When Off is selected, the 
Color Temperature function is not available.
Selecting a Color Temperature
The options available for color temperature* settings vary according to the signal type 
selected.
1.Cool:Makes images appear bluish white.
2.Normal: Maintains normal colorings for white.
3.Wa r m : Makes images appear reddish white.
*About color temperatures:
There are many different shades that are considered to be "white" for various purposes. 
One of the common methods of representing white color is known as the “color 
temperature”. A white color with a low color temperature appears to be reddish white. A 
white color with a high color temperature appears to have more blue in it.
Setting a preferred color temperature
To set a preferred color temperature:
1. Highlight Color Temperature and select Wa r m,Normal or Cool by pressing 
/   on the projector or remote control.
2. Press  to highlight Color Temperature Fine Tuning and press MODE/
ENTER. The Color Temperature Fine Tuning page displays.

3D Color Management
In most installation situations, color management will not be necessary, such as in 
classroom, meeting room, or lounge room situations where lights remain on, or where 
building external windows allow daylight into the room. 
Only in permanent installations with controlled lighting levels such as boardrooms, lecture 
theaters, or home theaters, should color management be considered. Color management  
						

							Operation 42provides fine color control adjusent to allow for more accurate color reproduction, should 
you require it.
Proper color management can only be achieved under controlled and reproducible viewing 
conditions. You will need to use a colorimeter (color light meter), and provide a set of 
suitable source images to measure color reproduction. These tools are not provided with 
the projector, however, your projector supplier should be able to provide you with suitable 
guidance, or even an experienced professional installer.
The Color Management provides six sets (RGBCMY) of colors to be adjusted. When you 
select each color, you can independently adjust its range and saturation according to your 
preference.
If you have purchased a test disc which contains various color test patterns and can be 
used to test the color presentation on monitors, TVs, projectors, etc. You can project any 
image from the disc on the screen and enter the 3D Color Management menu to make 
adjusents.
To adjust the settings:
1. Go to the PICTURE menu and highlight 3D Color Management.
2. Press MODE/ENTER and the 3D Color Management page displays.
3. Highlight Primary Color and press  /  to select a color from among Red, 
Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, or Magenta.
4. Press   to highlight Hue and press  /  to select its range. Increase in the range 
will include colors consisted of more proportions of its two adjacent colors.
Please refer to the illustration to the right for how the 
colors relate to each other.
For example, if you select Red and set its range at 0, 
only pure red in the projected picture will be selected. 
Increasing its range will include red close to yellow and 
red close to magenta.
5. Press   to highlight Saturation and adjust 
its values to your preference by pressing  /
. Every adjusent made will reflect to the 
image immediately.
For example, if you select Red and set its value at 0, 
only the saturation of pure red will be affected.
Saturation is the amount of that color in a video 
picture. Lower settings produce less saturated colors; 
a setting of “0” removes that color from the image 
entirely. If the saturation is too high, that color will be overpowering and unrealistic.
6. Press  to highlight Gain and adjust its values to your preference by pressing  /
. The contrast level of the primary color you select will be affected. Every adjusent 
made will reflect to the image immediately. 
7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 for other color adjusents.
8. Make sure you have made all of the desired adjusents.
9. Press MENU/EXIT to exit and save the settings.

display auto shut-down symptoms, which is designed to protect your projector from over-
heating. In cases like this, you should switch to High Altitude mode to solve these 
symptoms. However, this is not to state that this projector can operate under any and all 
harsh or extreme conditions.
