NOTES: 
1) Increasing the Dark Interval decreases the peak brightness of the image.
Use only if necessary—you may prefer some color artifacts rather than reduced
brightness, or vice versa. 
2) Higher input frame rates limit the range of Dark Interval
adjustment. 
3) You may have to adjust Gamma (if available—it is set to “Default” if
the Adjust Primary Colors function is also in use) to account for the longer dark
interval. 
4) Faster glasses enable use of a...

Keys projector will then relay keypad commands to the others. If using a wired
remote, make sure to select the “Broadcast Keys” option for the projector to which
the wired remote is connected.
