test pattern is displayed. NOTES: 1) This option is only available when using
a video source. 2) This option is not available when using an internal test
pattern.
DETAIL
Detail adjusts the sharpness of the video image. Use
or until the
display is as sharp as possible, keeping in mind that any level of detail above
3 (default) increases the level of detail as well as introduce some level of
noise in the image. Set below 3, to filter the signal and remove noise from a
noisy source. Keep at 3, to apply no detail. NOTE: This option is only
available when using a video source.
GAMMA
The Gamma option affects the shape of the curve determining what gray
shades are available for a given amount of signal input between minimum
(black) and maximum (white). Different curves can improve performance for
certain kinds of source input and applications. Generally the best gamma
curve is one that produces maximum contrast, brightness and color
performance for the current signal and ambient lighting conditions. There are
four preset gamma curves to choose from. They are: Photographic,
Enhanced Photographic, Enhanced Graphics/Video or Max. Brightness.
See Figure 3.12. NOTE: The option that appears highlighted in the list of
preset gamma curves is the current gamma curve applied to the incoming
signal.

SELECT COLOR TEMPERATURE
Select Select Color Temperature to apply a preset color temperature
(3200K, 5400K, 6500K, or 9300K) and/or to create a custom color
temperature (User1 or User2).
All temperatures are measured in degrees Kelvin and represent the
“coloration” (reddish or bluish) of the whites displayed by the projector.
Whites appear more reddish when a low color temperature is selected and
more bluish when a higher color temperature is selected. NOTE: 6500K is the
default color temperature.
User1, User2 - Select User1 or User2 if you want to create a custom color
temperature or to apply an already defined one. When you select either
User1 or User2, a separate window appears with Red, Green and Blue as
options that are fully adjustable to create or modify a custom color
temperature.
