Edge blending
Brightness and colors of overlapping edges of images from multiple projectors, which form a

Incorrect settings may shorten the useful life of the lamp or other parts.
• Be sure to perform this setting to use vertical projection.
• Projecting vertically without using this setting will shorten the useful life of the lamp 
and other parts.
• Even if you complete this setting, vertical projection will result in a shorter useful life 
of the lamp and other parts than horizontal projection.

• Setting display to [Off] will disable both the message to prepare a replacement lamp 
and the warning to replace the lamp. To review the replacement timing, check the 
lamp counter (P106).
• Lamps that are still used after the timing for lamp replacement are more likely to

Setting [Air filter warning display] to [Off] will disable display of the warning to clean 
the air filter. We recommend checking the air filter counter (P107) occasionally to
