the previous menu; press the Menu button at any time to close the menus. 
Dots appear before the menu name. The number of dots indicate the menu’s 
level, ranging from one (the Main menu) to five (the most nested menus). 
The menus are grouped by usage:
 The Picture menu provides image adjustments.
 The Settings menu provides set-up type adjustments that are not 
changed often.
 The About menu provides a read-only display of information about the 
projector and source. 
Certain menu items may be hidden until a particular source is connected. 
For example, Tint is only available for NTSC video sources and will be hid-
den when other sources are active. Other menu items may be grayed out 
when they are not available. For example, Brightness is grayed out until an 
image is active.

Picture menuTo adjust the following five settings, highlight the setting, press Select, use 
the up and down arrows to adjust the values, then press select to confirm 
the changes. All menu defaults are listed in a table starting on page 28.
Keys t on e: adjusts the image vertically to make a squarer image.
Contrast: controls the degree of difference between the lightest and darkest 
parts of the picture and changes the amount of black and white in the 
image.
Brightness: changes the intensity of the image. 
Color: (video sources only) adjusts a video image from black and white to 
fully saturated color.
Tint: (NTSC video sources only) adjusts the red-green color balance in the 
image.
Aspect Ratio: Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. 
TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are 
1.78:1, or 16:9. You can choose Native, 4:3, 16:9, Letterbox, or Natural Wide. 
The default is 16:9. The goal is to show the most detail on the screen while 
preserving the ratio of width to height. The native resolution of the projec-
tor is 1280x720. Use Native, 4:3 or Natural Wide for 4:3 input sources; use 
Native, 16:9 or Letterbox for 16:9 input. Pressing the Resize button on the 
remote cycles through these options.
Native: this mode bypasses the internal scaler, displaying the image with no 
resizing. Since the native resolution is 1280x720 and 4x3 video images are 
approximately 640x480, 4x3 images will always be smaller than the display 
and will be centered in the display. Computer images 1024x768 or smaller 
will also be centered in the display. If a 16x9 video source or a 1280x1024 or 
larger computer source is viewed, it will display up to 1280 pixels and 720 
lines from the center of the input. 16:9: the default is 16:9, which preserves 
the 16:9 aspect ratio and is designed to be used with content that is 
Enhanced for Widescreen TVs. 4:3: resizes the image from its original ver-
sion to fit a standard 4:3 aspect ratio screen. If you have a 4:3 source on a 
16:9 screen, the image is placed in a 16:9 space, so black bars appear at the 
sides of the image. Letterbox: preserves the 16:9 aspect ratio. If you have a 16:9 source and screen, the image fills the screen. If your source is letter-
boxed, the image is expanded to fill the screen. Natural Wide: this mode 
stretches a 4:3 image to fill the entire 16:9 screen. The center two-thirds of 
the image is unchanged; the edges of the image are stretched. The mode is 
only available when TrueLife is active (see page 14).

Presets: This allows you to customize settings and save the settings to be 
restored later. To restore the factory default settings, choose Factory Reset in 
the Settings>Service menu. 
To set a preset for the current source, adjust the image, select Save Settings 
in the Presets menu, then choose Save User 1, 2, or 3. You can recall these 
settings in the future by selecting the appropriate user presets. 
Gamma: Gamma tables contain preset intensity configurations optimized 
for the input source. You can select a gamma table that has been specifically 
tuned for either film, CRT (Cathode Ray Tube), video, Bright Room, or PC 
input. Bright Room 2 raises the brightness of low level content more than 
Bright Room 1, thus it is designed for lighting conditions that have high 
ambient light. (Film input is material originally captured on a film camera, 
like a movie; video input is material originally captured on a video camera, 
like a TV show or sporting event.)
NOTE: Your viewing preferences may vary. Cycle through the gamma 
options and pick the one you like the best.
Overscan: (video sources only) removes noise around the video image.Advanced settingsThe following 4 options are for computer or HDTV sources only. 
Phase: adjusts the phase of the video signal’s digital conversion.
Tr a c k i n g: adjusts the frequency of the video signal’s digital conversion. 
Horizontal/Vertical Position: adjusts the position of the source.
Sync Threshold Adjust: If a hardware device, such as a DVD player, is not 
syncing properly with the projector, select this option to help it to sync 
when connected to the projector.

Tr u e L i f e: This option refers to Faroudja’s TrueLife processing of the image. 
All standard definition interlaced video signals (composite, S-video and 
component) are routed through this processor. Extended and High Defini-
tion progressive component sources are not routed though this processor by 
default. You can turn TrueLife on to route these signals through the proces-
sor and then adjust the following 3 options:
Chroma Detail: This adjusts the color sharpness.
Luma Detail: This adjusts the overall sharpness (edge enhancement) of 
the Luma signal. 
Chroma Delay: aligns the Luma and Chroma signals.
CCS: (Cross Color Suppression) processes the signal to remove any color 
information from the luma portion of the signal. It is On for all composite 
signals, Off for all component signals, and can be turned on or off for all S-
video signals.
Film Mode: controls deinterlacing. If 2:2/3:2 Enable is selected, the deinter-
lacer attempts to perform a 3:2 pulldown, assuming the source was origi-
nally created on 24fps film. If the original source is 30fps film, you should 
select NTSC 2:2 Pulldown. The NTSC 48Hz option eliminates 2:3 pulldown 
induced jitter normally seen when deinterlacing 24Hz film content (most 
DVD movies) and playing it back at 60Hz. This is accomplished by playing 
the each frame of the original 24Hz film twice, resulting in 48Hz playback 
frame rate.
Noise Reduction: adjusts signal noise reduction. Choose Off to have no 
noise reduction, choose Auto to have the software determine the amount of 
noise reduction, or choose Manual and adjust the Level. Skintone Bypass 
prevents the noise reduction from being performed on skin tones, thus pre-
venting them from appearing overly softened.

Color Space: This option applies to computer and HDTV sources (it won’t 
appear in the menu for video sources). It allows you to select a color space 
that has been specifically tuned for the video input. When Auto is selected, 
the projector automatically determines the standard. To choose a different 
setting, turn off Auto, then choose RGB for computer sources, choose 
REC709 for component 1080i or 720p sources, or choose REC601 for compo-
nent 480p or 576p sources.
Color Temperature: changes the relative warmth of the colors. Select a 
listed value.
Color Control: allows you to individually adjust the gain (intensity of the 
color) and the offset (the amount of black in the color) of the red, green, and 
blue colors. 
Color Gamut: is the range of colors that are displayable by a device. The 
color gamuts listed restrict the output of our display to those that are 
defined by the industry standards mentioned, with the exception of “maxi-
mum” which display all of the colors that our display is capable of. Choose 
among SMPTE C, REC 709, EBU, and Maximum.
Video Standard: When it is set to Auto, the projector attempts to pick the 
video standard automatically based on the input signal it receives. (The 
video standard options may vary depending on your region of the world.) If 
the projector is unable to detect the correct standard, the colors may not 
look right or the image may appear “torn.” If this happens, manually select 
a video standard by selecting NTSC, PAL, or SECAM from the Video Stan-
dard menu.

Settings menuSources
: allows you to assign a particular input to a specific source key on 
the remote and enables or disables Autosource. When Autosource is not 
checked, the projector defaults to the last-used source. If no source is found, 
a blank screen displays. When Autosource is checked, the projector checks 
the last-used source first at power up. If no signal is present, the projector 
checks the sources in order until a source is found or until power down. 
You can use the Source Enable feature to eliminate certain sources from this 
search, which will speed the search. By default, the check boxes for all 
sources are checked. Uncheck a source’s box to eliminate it from the search.
System
All options in this menu toggle between on and off.
Rear: reverses the image so you can project from behind a translucent 
screen.
Ceiling: turns the image upside down for ceiling-mounted projection.
Auto Power: When Auto Power is checked, the projector automatically 
goes into the startup state after the projector receives power. This 
allows control of ceiling mounted projectors with a wall power switch.
Display Messages: displays status messages (such as “Searching”) in 
the lower-left corner of the screen.
Tr a n s l u c e n t  O S D: makes the menus translucent. This prevents the 
image from being completely covered by the menus while you are 
making image adjustments.
Sleep Timer: allows you to force the projector to automatically shutoff 
after 4 hours.

Pow e r  S av e: when On, the lamp is automatically turned off after no 
signals are detected for 20 minutes. After 10 additional minutes with no 
signal, the projector powers down. If an active signal is received before 
the projector powers down, the image will be displayed. 
Logo Light Always On: Under normal conditions, the logo is illumi-
nated when the power is turned on, then not illuminated when the 
lamp comes on. Check this box to keep the logo illuminated after the 
lamp comes on.
Lens Control Enable: This feature allows the lens to be moved using 
the up and down buttons on the remote when the menu is not up. 
Installers, turn this feature off after setup so end users do not inadvert-
ently change the lens position.
Startup Logo: allows you to display a blank Black, White, or Blue screen 
instead of the default screen at startup and when no source is detected. 
Blank Screen: determines what color displays when you press the Blank 
button on the remote or when no source is active.
Language: allows you to select a language for the onscreen display of 
menus and messages.

Replacing the projection lampYou can order new lamp modules from your dealer. 1
Turn off the projector and unplug the power cable. 
2
Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.
WARNINGS: 
 To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before 
you replace the lamp. 
 Unplug the power cord before replacing the lamp.
 Do not drop the lamp module. The glass may shatter and cause injury.
 Do not touch the glass lamp screen. Fingerprints can obscure projection 
sharpness.
 Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely 
event that the lamp ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated. 
The lamp module is designed to contain most of these fragments, but 
use caution when removing it. Before replacing a ruptured lamp, clean 
the lamp compartment and dispose of cleaning materials. Wash hands 
after lamp replacement. This product has a lamp which contains a very 
small amount of mercury. Dispose of it as required by local, state or fed-
eral ordinances and regulations. For more information see 
www.eiae.org.
