Note
 f [BRIGHTNESS  ADJUST] is a function that makes the increased brightness in black level of the overlapping image area difficult to notice 
when [EDGE BLENDING] is used to configure multiple screens. The optimal point of correction is set by adjusting [NON-OVERLAPPED 
BLACK LEVEL] so the black level of the overlapping image area will be the same level as the non-overlapping area. If the border area of the 
part where the image is overlapping and the non-overlapping part gets brighter after adjusting [NON-OVERLAPPED BLACK LEVEL], adjust 
the width of the top, bottom, left, or right. Adjust [BLACK BORDER LEVEL] when the width adjustment makes only the border area darker.
 f The 

joining part may look discontinuous depending on the position you are looking from when a screen with high gain or rear screen is used.
 fWhen configuring multiple screens using both horizontal and vertical edge blending, adjust [OVERLAPPED BLACK LEVEL] first before 
making adjustments in Step  12)

. Adjustment method is same as the procedure of [NON-OVERLAPPED BLACK LEVE\

 fAdjustment of the tilt of the border between [NON-OVERLAPPED BLACK LEVEL] and [BLACK BORDER LEVEL] is a function to perform 
the adjustment of [GEOMETR

Y] (x   page   81) together with the edge blending. If [NON-OVERLAPPED BLACK LEVEL] is tilted by 
correcting the keystone from [KEYSTONE] in [GEOMETRY], perform Steps 17) and 18) to adjust the edge blending according to the shape
