Security lock

A device consisting of a protector case with a hole in it that a commercially-available theft-prevention cable can be passed through in order to secure the device to a table or pillar. This projector is compatible with the Microsaver Security System manufactured by Kensington.

sRGB

An international standard for color intervals that was formulated so that colors which are reproduced by video equipment can be handled easily by computer operating systems (OS) and the Internet.

SVGA

A type of image signal with a resolution of 800 (horizontal) x 600 (vertical) dots which is used by IBM PC/ AT-compatible computers.

SXGA

A type of image signal with a resolution of 1280 (horizontal) x 1024 (vertical) dots which is used by IBM PC/ AT-compatible computers.

Sync. (Synchronization)

The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images will not be of a good quality. The process of matching the phases of these signals (the relative position of the crests and troughs in the signal) is called "synchronization". If the signals are not synchronized, problems such as flickering, blurriness and horizontal interference can occur.

Tracking

The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images will not be of a good quality. The process of matching the frequency of these signals (the number of crests in the signal) is called "tracking". If tracking is not carried out correctly, wide vertical stripes will appear in the projected images.

VGA

A type of image signal with a resolution of 640 (horizontal) x 480 (vertical) dots which is used by IBM PC/ AT-compatible computers.

XGA

A type of image signal with a resolution of 1,024 (horizontal) x 768 (vertical) dots which is used by IBM PC/ AT-compatible computers.

YCbCr

The carrier signal which is contained in the color bar signal used in modern TV transmissions. The name comes from the Y (luminance) signal and the CbCr (chroma [color]) signals.

Glossary

YPbPr

The carrier signal which is contained in the color bar signal used in high-definition TV (HDTV) transmissions. The name comes from the Y (luminance) signal and the PbPr (color difference) signals.
