APPENDIX
Color temperature* (P105)
A value that represents the related color in a
light source in general. In this projector, the
color temperature is used to adjust the RGB
color balance for the projected image to cor-
rect the related color influence by the ambi-
ent light. If you increase and decrease the
color temperature, white changes to blue and
red, respectively. You can set the color tem-
perature in the [Color adjustment] menu if
[Photo] has been selected for [Image mode].
Component (P27, 64, 92)
A signal system in which an image is trans-
mitted by being broken down the brightness
signal (Y) and the color signal (C) into the B-Y
color difference signal and the R-Y color dif-
ference signal. Its image quality is higher
than that of the composite video. This system
can project a better-quality image as com-
pared with the composite signal system.
Connect the component video terminal on
the AV equipment and the ANALOG IN-2 ter-
minal on this projector with a component
cable. Select [COMPONENT] at projection.
Composite (P27, 66)
A video signal system used to send a bright-
ness signal (Y) and a color signal (C)
together. Connect the composite output
(RCA) terminal on the AV equipment and the
VIDEO IN terminal on this projector with a
video cable. Select [VIDEO] at projection.
Digital PC (P27, 37)
A signal system used to send digital informa-
tion of individual display dots. This system is
free from deterioration of image quality
because of no analog conversion. Connect
the DVI output terminal on the computer and
Input Terminal-1 on this projector with a DVI
connection cable. Select [DIGITAL PC] at
projection.
DVI (P37, 48, 65, 70)
A digital video signal connection interface for
a computer and AV equipment. This interface
allows digital data to be transmitted without
converting to analog data, assuring high
image quality with no signal degradation. The
DVI-I (integrated) connector can be used to
transmit both an analog video signal and dig-
ital video signal.
Gain (P105)
A parameter that adjusts the reproduction
range of a brightness signal from black to
white within the image signal to naturally
reproduce it on the screen. The reproducibil-
ity of the bright tone is mainly changed. Since
you can adjust the gain for each RGB color in
this projector, you can also adjust colors. The
gain is normally adjusted with the offset.
Gamma Correction (P104, 106)
A tone adjustment system used during pro-
jection of image data. The gamma correction
function works effectively when portions of an
image are obscure because they are too light
or dark.
This projector supports manual gamma cor-
rection and dynamic gamma correction
which performs the gamma correction auto-
matically.
HDCP
An abbreviation of High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection which is an encryption
technology for copy protection of digital
image signals. In this projector, you can
project digital contents copy-protected with
the HDCP technology. To project the con-
tents, connect the Input Terminal-1 on the
projector and an HDMI terminal or DVI termi-
nal on an AV equipment with a dedicated
cable, and then select [DIGITAL VIDEO] from
the [INPUT] menu.
