Using the Color Saturation Menu for Color Matching 
You may prefer to use the 
Color Saturation menu to 
match colors across 
multiple screens. In the 
three Color Adjustment 
submenus (Red, Green, 
Blue—see right), set all 
main values to 100 and 
the secondary values to 0. 
Then judge by eye and 
adjust the slidebars as 
needed. Note that 
adjustments here define 
new x/y coordinates in the 
Color Adjustments by X,Y 
menu.

edge (for example, if the projector’s image is on the left, its right edge overlaps the 
adjacent image—adjust Right Blend Width). Use the same setting on the second 
projector for this shared edge.

operation. Such a condition can be caused by a simple invalid keypad entry, an input 
signal error (most common) or a system error. The manner in which users are to be 
notified of error conditions is set in the Menu Preferences menu: 
• To see error messages displayed on-screen, select the “
Screen” or “All” option.

If they are correct, then the signal is not recognized by the projector. On some PCs 
you may be able to change the settings to generate a compatible signal. If the 
frequencies shown in the Status menu are incorrect, check the cabling to see where the 
problem might originate.

message or a...
