The Edge Blending submenu provides a range of controls for smoothing together the overlapping 
bright edges of multiple adjacent projected images to create a single larger “seamless” image. 
These controls, which primarily affect white levels, are typically used in conjunction with mechanical 
lens blinders (optional), which are installed on the front of the projector and which...

DefInIng  “UseR”  ColoR gaMUTs:	In	some	 cases,	 you	may	 find	that	 none	 of	the	 pre-
defined	 “Select	Color	Adjustment”	 options	exactly	suit	your	 needs.	 For	example,	 you	may	 require	
a unique color gamut (range) for a single projector or application, or you may need to precisely 
match colors across multiple adjacent displays. In such cases, use the  Color Adjustments by X,Y 
or Color Temp Adjust	submenu	to	define	the	precise	hue	of	each	primary	color	component	(red,	
green,  blue,  and...

noTe: Keep new x,y coordinates within the original color gamut triangle shown \
here.
ColoR  TeMP aDjUsT : Use  this 
submenu	 if	you	 do	not	 have	 specific	
color coordinates in mind and will simply 
judge color performance by meter. Like 
the  Color Adjustment by X,Y  submenu, 
each	 color	control	 actually	 defines	
new  x/y  coordinates  for  that  color  and 
changes  its  hue  —  it  is  just  a  different 
interface.
Adjust  the  hue  of  each  primary...

TesT PaTTeRn
Choose the desired internal 
test  pattern  to  display,  or 
select OFF to turn off a test 
pattern.  Alternatively,  use 
the  
Test key  for  cycling 
through test patterns.
noTe:  There is a centerline 
(both horizontal and vertical) 
in  the  Edge  Blending  test 
pattern.  The  intersection  of 
these lines is the true center 
of  the  projector’s  display 
area.

fReeze IMage
Enter  a  check  mark  to  freeze  (stop)  an  image  on  a  single  frame. This  diagnostic  tool  is  useful 
if  you  need  to  examine  in  detail  a  still  version  of  an  incoming  image  that  cannot  be  “frozen”  at 
the	 source.	 For	example,	 in	moving	 images	it	is	 sometimes	 difficult	to	observe	 artifacts	such	
as  external  de-interlacing/resizing  and  signal...

noTes: 1) Adjust offset before gain, since offset affects gain.  2) A value of 128 represents no 
change in normal odd pixel offset or gain.  3) Odd Pixel Adjustment eliminates “one pixel on, one 
pixel off” artifact only, not any type of larger artifacts.

lens VaRIsCoPe sYsTeM (lVs™) CalIbRaTIon
This option allows you to choose between three types of lens calibrations.  Reference calibration 
determines	 a	reference	 point	that	is	used	 as	a	defined	 starting	position	 for	relative	 motion	of	the	
lens. All  positioning  is  measured  from  this  reference  point. A  reference  calibration  is  lost  when 
power  is  removed  from  the  projector  and  will  occur  on  every  power  up  as  long  as  LVS™  is 
enabled. A  Motion...

Section	3	►	Operation
PIP (Picture-in-Picture) and Seamless Switching are independent but related projector features 
that  both  utilize  two  image-processing  paths  within  the  projector.  In  the  case  of  Picture-in-
Picture,  this  double  processing  enables  you  to  display  two  different  images  simultaneously  – 
typically a smaller “secondary” image within a large “primary” background.  In a seamless switch, 
the  double  processing  essentially  occurs  between  displays  so  that...

Toggle  the  current  picture-in-picture  relationship  so  that  the  primary  (main)  image  becomes 
secondary (PIP), and the secondary image becomes primary. Swapping is available only when 
PIP is enabled.
noTe: There may be a slight delay when swapping the Primary and Secondary imag\
es.

Working with seamless                              switching Seamless Switching is the ability to instantly and/or smoothly switch sources, and is controlled 
with options 7 and 8 in the  PIP menu. To use Seamless Switching, PIP must be disabled.
Tips for best source switching: Ensure	a	channel	has	been	configured	for	each	source.
•	
Progressive digital and analog sources are recommended.
