video have maximum contrast without crushing black or white. By default (and in an “Auto Setup”), the 
projector automatically determines the best input levels by monitoring image content and adjusting the 
controls appropriately; further adjustment is typically not required to obtain proper blacks or whites. 
NOTE: This automatic adjustment requires at least 6-12 consecutive white pixels in the image. Without these 
pixels,...

Clamp Location brightens the image produced from certain high-resolution high-frequency graphic sources. 
The projector automatically selects the best clamp location for most sources. Use the normal Back Porch 
location if the image is either sufficiently bright or overly bright. Select Sync Tip if the image appears 
unusually dim, if there are horizontal streaks across the image, or if there is significant...

6. Repeat steps 3-5 with the 2 remaining primary colors. When each primary color shows one optimized 
black band and white (or colored) band, the Input levels for this source are correctly set. Upon exiting the 
Input Levels menu, the Peak Detector check box will clear.

•Gamma Correction
Applies a global offset to all gamma settings for each channel. It affects the shape of the curve by performing 
a linear transform toward a gamma curve of 1.0 while the control is increasing and likewise a linear 
transform toward a gamma of 3.0 as the control is decreasing. The control should only be adjusted to 
compensate for ambient conditions. To correct a particular source only, use the Gamma control....

• Detail Threshold
Selects a filter sensitivity to noise. A higher value may improve noisy sources especially for higher settings 
of detail.
• Detail Overshoot
Minimizes ringing on the enhanced edges detail and texture effects.
• Split Screen
Allows a snap shot of the main image to be presented on the right side of the screen to allow evaluation of 
advanced image processing features. All resizing controls are honoured on both...

Actual Frame Delay
Indicates the dynamically calculated, effective minimum frame delay for the projector. The calculated delay is 
affected by image shift, scaling, warp/keystone applied, and format. For example, the minimum latency can 
vary based on the amount of scaling applied to the image. When using keystone or warping, an additional 
latency is required, depending on the amount of warp.

Fan Assist
Normal cooling uses temperature sensors to regulate fan speed. Fan Assist enables full speed fan operation on 
the Light Module (LM) when operating in high ambient temperatures or for long periods. This may help to 
reduce thermal problems and may prevent an emergency shutdown for thermal safety reasons. Fan assist 
increases noise levels due to the simultaneous full speed operation of the fans.
