Using the preset and user modes

Selecting a picture mode

The projector is preset with several pre-defined picture modes so that you can choose one to suit your operating environment and input source picture type.

To select a picture mode that suits your need:

Using the remote control

1.Press PICTURE MODE repeatedly or USER 1, USER 2, USER 3 on the remote control until your desired mode is selected.

Using the OSD menu

1.Press MENU and then press / until the Image menu is highlighted.

2.Press to highlight Picture Mode.

3.Press / until your desired mode is selected.

These modes consist of preset values suitable for various projection situations as described below:

Cinema Mode: with well-balanced color saturation and contrast with a low brightness level. This is most suitable for enjoying movies in a totally dark environment (as you would find in a commercial cinema).

Dynamic Mode: Maximizes the brightness of the projected image. This mode is suitable for environments where extra- high brightness is required, such as using the projector in well lit rooms.

Standard: Is slightly brighter than Cinema Mode mode, and suitable for use in rooms where there is a small amount of ambient light.

Fine-tuning the selected picture mode

The pre-defined picture mode settings can be altered via the available items shown in the Image and Color menus.

To fine-tune the picture mode:

1.Press MENU and then press / until the Image or Color menu is highlighted.

2.Press to highlight the item you want to adjust (from among Brightness, Contrast, Color, Tint, Sharpness, Black Level, Clarity Control, Color Temperature, Gamma Selection, Brilliant Color, Color Management, IRIS) and press / to set your desired value. Your selection is automatically stored in the projector and associated with that input source.

See "Fine-tuning the picture quality" on page 25 and "Advanced picture quality controls" on page 26 for details.

Each time you change the picture mode, the projector also changes the setting to the one which was last set for that particular picture mode on that particular input. If you change the input source, the most recently used picture mode and settings for that input and resolution will be restored.
