Fine-tuning the image quality in user modes below for details.
Fine-tuning the image quality in user modes
According to the detected signal type and selected picture mode, some of the below 
functions may not be available. Based on your needs, you can make adjustments to these 
functions by highlighting them and pressing  /  on the projector or remote control.
Adjusting Brightness
The higher the value, the brighter the image. And the 
lower the setting, the darker the image. Adjust this 
control so the black areas of the image appear just as 
black and that detail in the dark areas is visible.
Adjusting Contrast
The higher the value, the greater the contrast. Use this 
to set the peak white level after you have previously 
adjusted the Brightness setting to suit your selected 
input and viewing environment.
Adjusting Color
Lower setting produces less saturated colors. If the setting is too high, colors on the image 
will be overpowering, which makes the image unrealistic.
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.
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.Warm: 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.

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 
provides fine color control adjustment 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 
adjustments.
To adjust the settings:
1. Go to the PICTURE menu and highlight 3D Color Management.
2. Press MODE/ENTER on the projector or remote control and the 3D Color 
Management page appears.
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. 
						

							Operation 33 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 adjustment 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 
adjustment made will reflect to the image immediately. 
7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 for other color adjustments.
8. Make sure you have made all of the desired adjustments.
9. Press MENU/EXIT to exit and save the settings.
Resetting current or all picture modes
1. Go to the PICTURE menu and highlight Reset Picture Settings.
2. Press MODE/ENTER and press  /  to select Current or All.
