About color temperature

There are different kinds of white color. Color temperature is a way to show the differences in white. White of which temperature is low appears reddish. When the color temperature rises, white appears bluish. For example, you can change the color temperature using the following procedures.

To rise the color temperature: Increase the CONTRAST B (blue) and decrease the CONTRAST R (red).

To reduce the color temperature: Decrease the CONTRAST B (blue) and increase the CONTRAST R (red).

If you set all of CONTRAST R, G, and B to negative values, the original brightness of the image can’t be obtained even when you maximize CONTRAST in the IMAGE menu.

To optically brighten or darken projected images (AUTO IRIS):

Iris is a function to optically adjust the contrast by opening or closing the aperture of the lamp. This projector is equipped with the following 2 modes to adjust the iris.

AUTO

The iris is automatically adjusted depending on the image being displayed. AUTO mode has 5 types as follows. Mode 1: When white objects are displayed in an overall dark scene, rich black details can be obtained. (This mode is

suitable for displaying live images.)

Mode 2: White appears more brilliant than that in Mode 1.

Mode 3: Images appear brighter than those in Mode 2.

Mode 4: This mode is recommended when you have been using a standard lamp and its operating time exceeds 2000 hours based on that LAMP MODE is LOW. (See page 30.)

Mode 5: This mode provides deeper blacks than the other modes.

OFF

The iris is kept fully opened.
