DISPLAY CHANNEL LIST — Enter a checkmark if you want to see a scrollable channel 
list whenever you press 
Chan from your presentation. Channels marked with a list 
icon 
 in the Channel Setup menu will appear here. The “Display Channel List” 
option also enables on-screen feedback when using the Input key. If you prefer to hide 
the channel list and input dialog box while switching channels and sources during a 
presentation clear the checkbox....

network of projectors, if you discover that a projector has a different baud rate, make 
sure to use the pull-down list and select the correct baud rate using the 
 key—do 
not just scroll this control with 
 or  keys. Serial communication is always 8 
data bits, no parity. 
Projector 
Enter a three-digit number (such as “001”) to assign or change a number to the 
projector currently in use. If the current projector already has a number assigned, that...

Ethernet Settings (SUBMENU) 
NOTES: 1) Recommended for network administrators only. 
DHCP: Enable this checkbox if you want a DHCP server to automatically change the 
projector’s default IP address (0.0.0.0) to one that is valid and unique for use on the 
current Ethernet network. On networks without a DHCP server, or to simply override 
the automatic DHCP server function, delete the checkmark and enter the new “IP 
Address” settings desired. Remember...

Color Adjustments by X/Y, and Color Saturation — SUBMENUS 
NOTES: 1) For defining or changing a User 1, 2, 3, or 4 color performance or 
“gamut”. Sometimes known as Comprehensive Color Adjustment™.  2) Factory-
defined primary color levels, which ensure a specific color performance from 
projector-to-projector, can be calibrated in the Service menu only. If you suspect 
alteration of these defaults, the factory settings can be recovered with selection...

COLOR ADJUSTMENT BY X,Y: Use 
this submenu if you want to create, 
alter or copy a color gamut (i.e., 
“color adjustment”). Controls in 
this menu define the precise hue of 
each primary color component 
(red, green, blue, and white) used 
to generate the millions of colors 
produced in displays. The x/y 
coordinates for each color define 
its location on the standard CIE 
chromaticity graph (see Figure 
3.22)—changing either or both of 
these numbers...

COLOR SATURATION: Use this 
submenu if you do not have 
specific color coordinates in mind 
and will simply judge color 
performance by eye or meter. 
Like the Color Adjustment by X,Y 
submenu, each color control 
actually defines new x/y 
coordinates for that color and 
changes its hue—it is just a 
different interface. 
Adjust the hue of each primary 
color (red, green, blue, and white) 
by using more or less of it in 
relation to the other colors....

Odd Pixel Adjustment 
NOTES: 1) Factory-set and rarely required by user. 2) Source must be >90 MHz. 
When using certain RGB sources, you may need to adjust the normal gain or offset of 
odd pixels in relation to even pixels. This will smooth out very narrow (1-pixel wide) 
“checks” or vertical stripes that indicate adjacent “on” and “off”...

Peak Detector 
The “Peak Detector” is a fast method for defining individual input levels, and can 
improve the accuracy of input levels set by the Auto Input Level function. Enabling 
the “Peak Detector” activates a special operating mode for detecting only pixels that 
are considered black or white—all other levels are displayed as a mid-level gray. 
When used with a 16-step grayscale pattern in which the two black and white bands 
are known to be at...

For example, on Roadster models the Dual SD/HD-SDI module is factory-installed at 
INPUT 5 (Option 1). The Option 1 Card submenu provides controls for configuring 
the various connections on this multi-input, multi-output module. As desired for your 
application, you can define 1) which physical input loops through to which output, 
and 2) which functional input (main or PIP signal) loops through to which output. 
PIP (Picture-in-Picture) and Seamless...
