This section explains easily terms that are used with the projector and difficult terms that are not explained in the text of this guide. For details, refer to other
commercially available publications.
Ad hoc mode A method of wireless LAN connection that communicates with wireless LAN clients without using an access point. It is not possible to communicate
with two or more devices simultaneously.

Aspect Ratio
(Aspect Ratio)
The ratio between an image's length and its height. HDTV images have an aspect ratio of 16:9 and appear elongated. The aspect ratio for standard
images is 4:3.
Component Vide o A Video signal which has the luminance component and color component separated to provide better image quality.
Refers to images that consist of three independent signals: Y (luminance signal), Pb and Pr (color difference signals).
Composite video Video signals that have the video brightness signals and color signals mixed together. The type of signals commonly used by household video
equipment (NTSC, PAL, and SECAM formats). The carrier signal Y (luminance signal) and chroma (color) signal that are contained in the color bar
are overlapped to form a single signal.
Contrast The relative brightness of the light and dark areas of an image can be increased or decreased to make text and graphics stand out more clearly, or to
make them appear softer. Adjusting this particular property of an image is called Contrast adjustment.
DHCP An abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, this protocol automatically assigns an IP Address
g
to equipment connected to a
Network.
DICOM An acronym for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine. An international standard that defines image standards and a communications
protocol for medical images.
Gateway address
(Gateway Address)
This is a server (router) for communicating across a network (subnet) divided according to subnet masks
g
.
HDCP HDCP is an abbreviation for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. It is used to prevent illegal copying and protect copyrights by encrypting
digital signals sent over DVI and HDMI input ports. Digital images protected by HDCP technology can be projected with this projector because the
projector's HDMI input ports are compatible with HDCP. However, the projector may not be able to project images protected with updated or revised
versions of HDCP encryption.
HDTV An abbreviation for High-Definition Television that refers to high-definition systems which satisfy the following conditions.
•Vertical resolution of 720p or 1080i or greater (p = Progressive
g
, i = Interlace
g
)
•Screen Aspect Ratio
g
of 16:9
Infrastructure mode A method for wireless LAN connection in which devices communicate through access points.
