y Serial Port Echo: Control whether the serial port echoes characters.
 
y Projector Address: Set the projector address (0-9). The projector will\
 
respond to IR remotes set either at the same address as the projector or\
 to 
IR remotes set to address 0.
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 optiona\
l 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, complementary blends between neighboring ima\
ges 
can compensate for the extra “brightness” or intensity where these edges 
overlap. By controlling blend width and other properties, you can achiev\
e 
uniformity across the group of images. “Visible overlaps will disappear, as 
shown below”

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 examp\
le, 
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 havi\
ng 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 P\
attern 
is enabled, the solid colored test pattern will be displayed according t\
o the 
menu item on which you are positioned. 
y Meter Adjustment
1.  Using a color meter, enter  the current x and y co-ordinates of Red,  Green, Blue and White for the projector 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.

y Manual Adjustment
1.  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 high\
lighting 
the function in the list and pressing ENTER. Choose a function that does\
 
not already have a dedicated button, and assign the hot-key to that func\
tion, 
allowing you to quickly and easily use the chosen function.
Service
 
y Projector Info: Display current projector settings (read-only).
 
y Factory Reset: Restore all settings to their default value. It will not \
reset 
network but it will reset RS232.
 
y Test Pattern: Choose the desired internal test pattern to display, or se\
lect 
OFF to turn off a test pattern.
 
y Color wheel Index (2x): Set Color wheel index to Speed 2X. This settin\
g 
only needs to be used when the Main Board is changed, and should be 
adjusted to optimize picture quality.
 
y Color wheel Index (3x): Set Color wheel index to Speed 3X. This settin\
g 
only needs to be used when the Main Board is changed, and should be 
adjusted to optimize picture quality.
 
y Error log: Show the projector error log for debug.
 
y Mode Adjustment: Fine tune the H and V start position for a signal in th\
e 
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 will not clear these \
override settings.
 
y Light Sensor: Calibrate the Light Sensor for use with the Constant Inten\
sity 
lamp mode, which allows the projector to be set for constant brightness.\
 If 
the Light Sensor has not been calibrated, Constant Intensity mode will b\
e 
disabled. Light Sensor calibration should be repeated when new lamps are\
 
installed.

4.4  Lamp Menu
Lamp 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 l\
amp 
power to the minimum setting.
Constant Power
Set the value of the lamp power (in Watts).
Constant Intensity
Set the value for the Constant Intensity to maintain constant brightness\
. 
The light sensor will monitor the light level and will apply more power \
as the 
lamp brightness decays naturally over time. When the lamp setting reache\
s 
maximum power of 370W, it will remain at this setting.  Note that the li\
ght 
sensor needs to be calibrated for Constant Intensity mode to work proper\
ly. 
Calibration should be performed again after every lamp change.
Lamp Info
Display current lamp(s) settings (read-only).
Lamp Life Setting
Set the number of hours for the lamp life warning. After the lamp hours exceed 
this value, a lamp replace message will appear. Once the lamp hour excee\
ds 
the value of " Lamp Life Settings", a warning message box will be shown \
on 
screen and the Lamp LED will be solid yellow at the same time.
Reset Lamp Hours
Reset the lamp used hours counter to zero. Do this after changing the la\
mp.
Light Sensor
Calibrate light sensor.
