    Image Blending
    Adjust blend widths and settings to left, right, top and/or bottom sides to create 
    a seamless multi-projector  stitched image. (Available only when optional Dual 
    Processor Warp Module is installed.)
    What is a Blend?
    In simple terms, a blend appears as a gradient strip along an edge of a 
    projected image. It is darkest along  the extreme edge of the image, and 
    lightens nearer to the rest of the image(see below).
    How are Blends used?
    In multiple-projector wall, complem entary blends between neighboring images 
    can compensate for the extra brightne ss or intensity where these edges 
    overlap. By controlling blend width an d other properties, you can achieve 
    uniformity across the group of images. Visible overlaps will disappear, as 
    shown below
    Blending regions can be defined on all sides - left, right, top and bottom. The 
    same gamma curve is used for all blending regions.

    Color Matching
    You may require a unique color gamut (range) for a single projector or 
    application, or you may need to precisely match colors across multiple 
    adjacent displays. Use Color Matching  by Meter Adjustment or by Manual 
    Adjustment to define the precise hue of  each primary color component (red, 
    green, blue and white).
    The x/y coordinates for each color define its location on the standard CIE 
    chromaticity graph. Changing either or  both of these numbers will change the 
    hue of the color, and modify the range of possible colors. For example, 
    changing the x/y coordinates for red may move the color closer to orange or 
    closer to violet, which will in turn affect all displayed colors having a red 
    component. Adjust the slide bars or enter new specific coordinates as desired 
    to define or change the color gamuts needed for your environment and 
    applications.
    Enable the selected method (Meter or Manual Adjustment)- this will 
    automatically disable the other method. For both methods, if Auto Test Pattern 
    is enabled, the solid colored test pattern will be displayed according to the 
    menu item on which you are positioned.
    • Meter Adjustment
    1 Using a color meter, enter the current x and y co-ordinates of Red, Green, Blue and White for the projec tor image into the Measured Data 
    menu. This is the reference point for the projector. The default values in 
    the menu are based on the average for all projectors.
    2 After measuring the values for  all the projectors to be matched, 
    calculate the target values.
    3 Enter the target values for x, y and gain for each color into the Target  Data menu.

    • Manual Adjustment1 Adjust color slide bars and judge image color by eye or meter. A user-defined color adjustment can be applied.
    2 Use this submenu if you do not have specific color coordinates in mind  and will judge color performance by eye or meter. As for Meter 
    Adjustment, each color control actually defines new x/y coordinates for 
    that color and changes its hue. The main colors (red part of red, green 
    part of green and blue part of blue ) adjust the intensity of that color 
    component, while the modifying colors (e.g. green part of red and blue 
    part of red) modify the x and y value and change the hue of that color. 
    At the same time the main colors also are used to control the color of 
    the white point.
    Hot-Key Settings
    Assign a different function to the hot-key on the remote control by highlighting 
    the function in the list and pressing ENTE R. Choose a function that does not 
    already have a dedicated button, and assign the hot-key to that function, 
    allowing you to quickly and easily use the chosen function.
    Service
    •  Projector Info: Display current projector settings (read-only).
    •  Factory Reset: Restore a ll settings to their default value. It will not reset 
    network but it will reset RS232.
    •  Test Pattern: Choose the desired internal test pattern to display, or select  OFF to turn off a test pattern.
    •  Phosphor Index: The Phosphor index synchronizes the phosphor wheel  with the filter wheel and DMD. The  index defines the delay between the 
    wheel and the DMD. When the Phosphor index is adjusted, it will impact 
    the smoothness and contouring  of the R/G/B gray level.
    •  Filter Index: The Filter index synchro nizes the filter wheel with the phosphor 
    wheel and DMD. The index defines the delay between the wheel and the 
    DMD. When the filter inde x is adjusted, it will impact the smoothness of the 
    white color space without contouring,  similar to the phosphor index 
    behavior.
    •  Error log: Show the projector error log for debug.
    •  Mode Adjustment: Fine tune the H and V start position for a signal in the  EDID timing table and record the values in the system to override the timing 
    table. The settings must be Saved to  Record before exiting the menu, or 
    they will be lost. To revert to original timing table settings, each setting must 
    be manually cleared. Factory Defaults wil l not clear these override settings.
    •  Laser Diode Info: Display current laser banks status and temperature  information.
    •  High ambient temperature warning: Show the warning message the when  the ambient temperature is over 35°C.

    4.4 Light Source
    Light Source Mode
    Select Constant Power, Constant Intensity or ECO mode. When in ECO mode, 
    the projector will adjust to the lowest fan speed and switch the laser diode 
    power to the mi nimum setting.
    Constant Power
    Set the value of the laser diode power (in Watts).
    Constant Intensity
    Set the value for the Constant Intens ity to maintain constant brightness.
    The light sensor will monitor the light level and will apply more power as the 
    laser brightness decays naturally over time. When the laser setting reaches 
    maximum power of 405W, it will remain at  this setting. Note that the light 
    sensor needs to be calibrated for Constant  Intensity mode to work properly. 
    Calibration should be performed again after every lamp change.
    Total Projector Hours
    Display current total hours the projector used.
    Light Sensor
    Calibrate light sensor.
