Vidikron 140/150 manual Calibrating Projector Input 2 DVI

Page 57

After you have installed and adjusted the projector and lens (or lenses), you are ready to begin calibrating the DVI input (Input 2) to the Vision 140/150.

Vidikron calibrates both the Vision 140/150 and VHD Controller at the

Note factory for optimum performance in most typical home cinema environments, before the system ships.

Carefully assess the displayed image quality before proceeding with calibration. In most cases, it is not necessary to calibrate the projector inputs, as the VHD Controller gives you as much control as you will need over the image quality.

Only ISF-certified installation technicians should attempt the calibration procedures described here, and ONLY if absolutely necessary to accommodate an atypical installation.

To perform the calibration, you will use the projector rear-panel keypad (Figure 2-3)or TheaterMaster Remote Control, shown in Figure 3-17and described on the pages that follow. Once you have completed the projector input calibration, the end user can use the VHD Controller Remote Control (Figure 2-6)to adjust input image quality, change aspect ratios, switch between sources and more. (The exception to this rule is when sources are connected directly to the projector. Although this is technically possible, Vidikron advises against this.)
