Selecting Color Space Conversion Highlight Color Space Conversion in the DISPLAY menu and select by pressing / on the projector or remote control. Select an appropriate color matrix type from among Auto/RGB/YUV. This function is only available with HDMI input source. Selecting the aspect ratio The aspect ratio is the ratio of the image wi dth to the image height. For W1060, the default aspect ration is 16:9. Most analog TV and co mputers are in 4:3 ratio, and digital TV and DVDs are usually in 16:9 ratio. With the advent of digital signal processing, digital display devices like this projector can dynamically stretch and scale the image output to a different aspect than that of the image input signal. To change the projected image ratio (no matter what aspect the source is): 1. Press MENU/EXIT and then press / until the DISPLAY menu is highlighted. 2. Press to highlight Aspect Ratio. 3. Press / to select an aspect ratio to suit the format of the video signal and your display requirements.
Operation 33 EnglishAbout the aspect ratio In the pictures below, the black portions are inactive areas and the white portions are active areas. OSD menus can be displayed on those unused black areas. 1.Auto: Scales an image proportionally to fit the projector’s native resolution in its horizontal width and vertical height. This is suitable for the incoming image which is in 4:3 or 16:9 and you want to make most use of the screen without altering the image’s aspect ratio. 2. 16:9: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of the screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio. This is most suitable for images which are already in a 16:9 aspect, like high definition TV, as it displays them without aspect alteration. 3. 4:3: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of the screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio. This is most suitable for 4:3 images like computer monitors, standard definition TV and 4:3 images aspect DVD movies, as it displays them without aspect alteration. 4. Letter Box : Scales an image so that the original aspect ratio of the production is preserved. For input signals that do not conform to the projectors native resolution, the full unaltered image is displayed with a black border where no image exists. 4:3 picture 16:9 picture 16:9 picture 4:3 picture 16:9 picture Letter Box format picture
Operation 34 English5. Real: The image is projected as its original resolution, and resized to fit within the display area. For input signals with lower resolutions, the projected image will display smaller than if resized to full screen. You could adjust the zoom setting or move the projector away from the screen to increase the image size if necessary. You may also need to refocus the projector after making these adjustments. OSD menus can be displayed in the unused black areas. 4:3 picture

For a smoother, more natural image, adjust toward the minimum setting. 3D Color Management In most installation situations, color mana gement 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 manage ment 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 reprod uction. These tools are not provided with the p ro j e c to r, h ow e ve r, yo u r p ro j e c to r s u p p l i e r s h ould 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.
Operation 39 EnglishTo adjust the settings: 1. Go to the PICTURE: Advanced menu and highlight 3D Color Management . 2. Press MODE/ENTER and the 3D Color Management page displays. 3.

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. 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. 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.
