Using the Digital Cinema Display Options

All of the digital cinema display options are located in the OSD on the Main Menu > Image Adjustment > Aspect Ratio Display page. These options are unavailable and the menu option dimmed unless one of the following resolutions is being displayed via the active video input:

●2048 × 1080

●4096 × 2160

●3840 × 2160

NOTE: Though the Digital Cinema Options menu is available for the 3840 × 2160 resolution, the aspect ratio options are not available because 3840 × 2160 is not a DCI container size.

To access the digital cinema display options:

1.Connect a computer or video device to the monitor that is configured to output a 2048 × 1080 or 4096 × 2160 resolution.

2.Press any button on the front bezel.

3.Press the bottom Open Menu button to open the OSD.

4.Select Image Adjustment to display the adjustment options screen.

5.Select Aspect Ratio Display to display the display options.
