Terminology

This section provides simple explanations for the terminology used within the manual, items for which explanations are not available, and other complex processes.

A/V Mute

Temporarily erases the image and sound. The sound and image can be muted

 

by pressing the [A/V Mute] button on the projector. Press the [A/V Mute]

 

button once again or adjust the volume or display the menu to cancel the mute

 

mode.

DVI-D port

The input port that supports DVI ratings and that is one of the types of com-

 

pression/playback technologies for digital audio.

D output port

The output port for digital tuners that support the new digital broadcasts

 

within Japan.

Remote port

Enables the optional remote control receiver to be connected so that multiple

 

items of equipment can be operated with a remote control unit.

SRS

The three-dimensional acoustic system. This enables wide and deep sound to

 

be listened to. These are adjusted with the [Space] (wide) and [Center] (deep)

 

buttons.

SVGA

IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 800 horizontal pix-

 

els and 600 vertical pixels.

SXGA

IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 1,280 horizontal

 

pixels and 1,024 vertical pixels.

Sync(synchronization)

Outputs computer signals at a pre-determined frequency. The image will not

 

be projected clearly unless this frequency is aligned with the frequency of the

 

projector. Aligning the signal phasing is known as synchronization. Projected

 

images will be subject to distrubance, blurring and horizontal noise if not syn-

 

chronized.

VGA

IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 640 horizontal pix-

 

els and 480 vertical pixels.

XGA

IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 1,024 horizontal

 

pixels and 768 vertical pixels.

USB

An abbreviation for Universal Serial Bus. This is an interface for connecting

 

comparitively low frequency equipment to the computer.

UXGA

IBM PC/AT compatible (DOS/V equipment) signals with 1,600 horizontal

 

pixels and 1,200 vertical pixels.

Color temperature

The temperature of the subject that emits light. A blue hue is attained when

 

the color temperature is high, and a red hue is attained when the color temper-

 

ature is low.

Color differential signal

Video equipment transmits signals through three cables as Red-Bright (R-Y),

 

Bright (Y) and Blue-Bright (B-Y). This enables the composite signals (the red,

 

green and blue signals and their brightness signals are transmitted along one

 

cable) to be projected more clearly.

Operating system

The software necessary to operate the computer. The EMP Link V supplied

 

with the projector operates the computers with the use of the Windows 95

 

(Japanese version) operating system, the Windows 98 (Japanese version) oper-

 

ating system, the Windows NT 4.0 (Japanese version) operating system, the

 

Windows 2000 (Japanese version) operating system, and the Macintosh Kanji

 

Talk 7.5.5 or higher operating systems.

9100 specifications

The Epson 9100 is a formidable player in the realm of high-quality projectors, designed for both home theater enthusiasts and professional users. As one of Epson's flagship models, it stands out due to its impressive blend of advanced technologies, exceptional image quality, and a range of features tailored to enhance the viewing experience.

One of the standout features of the Epson 9100 is its use of 3LCD technology. This innovative system utilizes three individual LCD panels—one each for the primary colors: red, green, and blue. This design not only delivers vivid colors but also ensures a high level of brightness, making it ideal for various lighting conditions. Unlike certain DLP projectors, the 3LCD technology minimizes the risk of color wheel artifacts, resulting in rich and immersive visuals that captivate audiences.

The Epson 9100 supports 4K enhancement, providing stunningly sharp images that are crucial for modern content. This feature utilizes advanced pixel-shifting technology to produce 4K-like resolution, dramatically improving the clarity and detail of images, whether watching a movie, playing video games, or viewing presentations. The expanded resolution allows for a more extensive detail capture, enhancing overall immersion.

Moreover, the Epson 9100 boasts a remarkable color gamut, capable of producing a wide range of colors, thanks in part to its high dynamic contrast ratio. With an impressive brightness output, this projector can deliver vibrant images even in brightly lit rooms, ensuring versatility across different settings. The projector supports HDR (High Dynamic Range), enhancing the dynamic range of color and brightness, which brings out subtle details in bright and dark scenes alike.

Connectivity is another strongpoint of the Epson 9100, featuring an array of ports that accommodate various devices. From HDMI inputs for high-definition devices to USB ports for easy streaming and presentations, the projector is designed for convenience. Access to wireless connectivity options allows users to project content from smartphones or tablets without the need for cables.

The Epson 9100 also prioritizes user comfort with its quiet operation, ensuring that movie nights or presentations remain undisturbed by distracting fan noises. Additionally, its sophisticated lens shifting capabilities allow for flexible installation options, enabling users to position the projector in various settings without compromising image quality.

In conclusion, the Epson 9100 is a versatile and high-performance projector that merges advanced technologies with exceptional features. From 3LCD technology and 4K enhancement to extensive connectivity options and quiet operation, it caters to the needs of both casual viewers and serious professionals looking for superior home entertainment or presentation solutions. Its combination of vivid imagery and user-friendly design makes it a standout choice in the projector market.
