							 Terminology - 101




 
Terminology
This section provides simple explanations for the terminology used within the manual, items 
for which explanations are not available, and other complex processes.
A/V Mute Temporarily erases the image and sound. The sound and image can be muted 
by pressing the [A/V Mute] button on the projector. Press the [A/V Mute] 
button once again or adjust the volume or display the menu to cancel the mute 
mode.
DVI-D port The input port that conforms to the DVI digital video ratings (Digital Visual 
Interface: Ratings to govern how video signals are digitally transmitted). Syn-
chronization and tracking misalignments will not occur during transmission.
D output port The output port for digital tuners that support the new digital broadcasts 
within Japan.
Remote port Enables the optional remote control receiver to be connected so that multiple 
items of equipment can be operated with a remote control unit.
SRS The three-dimensional acoustic system. This enables wide and deep sound to 
be listened to. These are adjusted with the [Space] (wide) and [Center] (deep) 
buttons.
SVGA IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 800 horizontal pix-
els and 600 vertical pixels.
SXGA IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 1,280 horizontal 
pixels and 1,024 vertical pixels.
Sync(synchronization) Outputs computer signals at a pre-determined frequency. The image will not 
be projected clearly unless this frequency is aligned with the frequency of the 
projector. Aligning the signal phasing is known as synchronization. Projected 
images will be subject to disturbance, blurring and horizontal noise if not syn-
chronized.
VGA IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 640 horizontal pix-
els and 480 vertical pixels.
XGA IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 1,024 horizontal 
pixels and 768 vertical pixels.
USB An abbreviation for Universal Serial Bus. This is an interface for connecting 
comparitively low frequency equipment to the computer.
UXGA IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 1,600 horizontal 
pixels and 1,200 vertical pixels.
Color temperature The temperature of the subject that emits light. A blue hue is attained when 
the color temperature is high, and a red hue is attained when the color temper-
ature is low.
Color differential signal 
(Components)Video equipment transmits signals through three cables as Red-Bright (R-Y), 
Bright (Y) and Blue-Bright (B-Y). This enables the composite signals (the red, 
green and blue signals and their brightness signals are transmitted along one 
cable) to be projected more clearly.
Operating system The software necessary to operate the computer. The EMP Link V supplied 
with the projector operates the computers with the use of the Windows 95 
operating system, the Windows 98 operating system, the Windows NT 4.0 
operating system, the Windows 2000 operating system. 
						

							102 - Terminology
Cool-down A lamp cooling procedure continues to operate even after the power supply 
has been switched off and the lamp extinguished. The cooling fan will begin 
to operate when the lamp is extinguished, and button operations will no 
longer be possible. This period is known as the cooling down period. The 
amount of time required for the cooling down procedure will differ in accor-
dance with the surrounding temperature.
Contrast By strengthening or weakening the tone of the colors, it is possible to project 
characters and pictures more clearly and attain a softer tint. This is known as 
contrast adjustment.
Stack projection Refers to the simultaneous duplicate projection of images with the use of mul-
tiple projectors in order to increase projection image brightness.
Theft-protection lock A theft-proof (available on the open market) is passed through the holes on 
the projector case to secure it to a desk or column. These holes support the 
Micro-Saver Security System manufactuered by Kensington Inc. The agency 
for this product within Japan is listed below.
