Override only if standard pixel tracking and phase adjustments do not clear up a “noisy” video signal, or if a 
graphics signal appears overly “soft”. 
3.7.5 Detail
“Detail” adjusts the sharpness of a video image so that edges remain clearly defined. It can be useful if a 
“Noise Reduction” adjustment has caused the image to appear too soft. Adjust until the display is sharp. 
“Detail” adds some high...

instances. This activates the decoder’s AGC circuit to make sure of correct bright images. Delete the 
checkmark if a decoded video image exhibits strange color...

2. Check the color temperature setup using an internal grayscale test pattern, making sure to obtain a neutral 
grayscale. 
NOTE: Not required for “Auto” adjustment.
3. Confirm that you are using an analog source not connected to 
INPUT 3 or INPUT 4. Input Levels are not 
applicable for digital sources or sources going through the decoder. A grayscale is recommended.

Color Temperature
Adjust to apply a specific and accurate color temperature to all displays. Color temperatures are expressed in 
degrees Kelvin (3200-9300K), and utilize different combinations of the projector’s original native color 
primaries to produce a “coloration” or cast in images. The lower the temperature the more reddish the cast; the 
higher the temperature, the more bluish the cast. The slidebar...
