GlossaryThis section briefly explains terms that are used with the projector and difficult terms that  are not explained in the text of this guide.  For details, 
refer to other commercial ly available publications.
Aspect ratio
The width-to-height ratio of a projected image or screen. When th e width-to-height ratio is 16:9 or 16:10, the elongated screen is known 
as wide-screen. The aspect ratio  for standard images is 4:3. 
Component Video
A video signal which has the luminance  component and color component separated to provide better image quality. 
Refers to images that consist of three  independent signals: Y (luminance signal),  Pb and Pr (color difference signals). 
Composite video
Video signals that have the video brightness signals and color si gnals mixed together. The type of signals commonly used by hou sehold 
video equipment (NTSC, PAL, and SECAM formats). The carrier si gnal Y (luminance signal) and chroma (color) signal that are 
contained in the color bar are overlapped to form a single signal.
Contrast
The relative brightness of the light and dark areas of an image can be increased or decreased to make text and graphics stand o ut more 
clearly, or to make them appear softer. Adjusting this par ticular property of an image is called contrast adjustment. 
Dolby Digital
A sound format developed by Dolby Laboratories. Normal stereo is  a 2-channel format that uses two speakers. Dolby Digital is a  6-
channel (5.1-channel) system which  adds to this a center speaker, two rear speakers, and a sub-woofer. 
HDTV
An abbreviation for High-Definition Televi sion that refers to high-definition systems which satisfy the following conditions. 
 Vertical resolution of 720p or 1080i or greater (p = progressive
g, i = interlace
g)
 Screen aspect ratio
g of 16:9
Dolby Digital
g audio reception and playback (or output)
Interlace
A method of image scanning whereby the imag e data is divided into fine horizontal lines that are displayed in sequence starting  from left 
to right and then from top to  bottom. The even-numbered lines and odd-numbered lines are displayed alternately. 
Progressive
A method of image scanning whereby the image data from a single  image is scanned sequentially from top to bottom to create a si ngle 
image. 
Refresh rate
The light-emitting element of a display main tains the same luminosity and color for an extremely short time. Because of this, the image 
must be scanned many times per second to  refresh the light-emitting element. The number  of refresh operations per second is called the 
Refresh rate and is ex pressed in hertz (Hz). 
SDTV
An abbreviation for Standard Defi nition Television that refers to standard tele vision systems which do not satisfy the conditions for 
HDTV
g High-Definition Television. 
Squeeze mode
In this mode, wide-screen images  in 16:9 mode are compressed in the horizontal  direction so that they are stored on the recording 
medium as 4:3 images. 
When these images are played back by th e projector in squeeze mode, they are restored to their original 16:9 format. 
sRGB
An international standard for color interval s that was formulated so that colors that are reproduced by video equipment can be  handled 
easily by computer operating systems (OS) and the Internet.  If th e connected source has an sRGB mode, set both the projector and the 
connected signal source to sRGB.
SVGA
A type of video signal with a  resolution of 800 (horizontal)  ^ 600 (vertical) dots that is used by  IBM PC/AT-compatible computers. 
S-Video
A video signal which has the luminance  component and color component separated to provide better image quality. 
Refers to images that consist of two independent si gnals: Y (luminance signal) and C (color signal).  
						

							
Glossary
99
SXGA
A type of video signal with a resolution of 1280 (horizontal) ^ 1024 (vertical) dots that is used  by IBM PC/AT-compatible computers. 
Synchronization
The signals output from computers have a  specific frequency. If the projector frequency  does not match this frequency, the resulting 
images are not of a good quality. The process  of matching the phases of these signals (the relative position of the crests and the troughs in 
the signal) is called Synchroniz ation. If the signals are not synchronized, flickering, blurrine ss, and horizontal interference occur. 
Tracking
The signals output from computers have a  specific frequency. If the projector frequency  does not match this frequency, the resulting 
images are not of a good quality. The proces s of matching the frequency of these signals (the number of crests in the signal) is called 
Tracking. If tracking is not carried out correctly,  wide vertical stripes appear in the signal. 
VGA
A type of video signal with a resolution of 640 (horizontal)  ^ 480 (vertical) dots that is used by  IBM PC/AT-compatible computers. 
XGA
A type of video signal with a resolution of 1024 (horizontal)  ^ 768 (vertical) dots that is used  by IBM PC/AT-compatible computers.

ESC/VP21 CommandsCommand List
The ESC and VP21 commands are commands sent from the computer to 
control the projector. 
When the power ON command is transm itted to the projector, the power 
turns on and it enters warm-up mode . When the projectors power has 
turned on, a colon : (3Ah) is returned. 
When a command is input, the projector executes the command and 
returns a :, and then accepts the next command. 
If the command being processed term inates due to a problem, an error 
message is output and a : is returned. * Add a Carriage Return (CR) code (0 Dh) to the end of each command and 
transmit.
