Texas Instruments MATRIX 3000 any time in the Advanced Image Settings, 19. Color Gamut Choices

Section 3: Operation

From the factory, the projector can utilize any of the 3 pre-defined color performance settings identified at right (default=Max Drives), or colors can be driven on the basis of color temperature. For most applications, one of these gamuts will produce accurate and realistic colors from a variety of sources. They can be applied at

not adjustable.

DEFINING “USER” COLOR GAMUTS: In some cases, you may find that none of the pre- defined “Select Color Adjustment” options exactly suit your needs. For example, you may require a unique color gamut (range) for a single projector or application, or you may need to precisely match colors across multiple adjacent displays. In such cases, use the Color Adjustments by X,Y or Color Saturation submenu to define the precise hue of each primary color component (red, green, blue, and white) used to generate the millions of colors produced in displays. You can create up to four custom color gamuts (User 1, 2, 3, or 4) with these adjustments.

Note that the two menus differ only in their user interface, so use whichever menu best suits your needs and application. A color meter can help with adjustments.

•Color Adjustments by X,Y — Enter known x/y coordinates from the chromaticity graph.

•Color Saturation — Adjust color slidebars and judge image color by eye or meter.

A user-defined color “adjustment” can be applied by selecting it in the Advanced

Image Settings menu (“Select Color Adjustment”).

COLOR ADJUSTMENT BY X,Y: Use
this submenu if you want to create,
alter or copy a color gamut (i.e.,
“color adjustment”). Controls in
this menu define the precise hue of
each primary color component (red,
green, blue, and white) used to
generate the millions of colors
produced in displays. The x/y
coordinates for each color define its
location on the standard CIE
chromaticity graph (see Figure
3.20)—changing either or both of
these numbers will change the hue
of the color, and relocate the
“triangle” for possible colors. For
example, changing the x/y
coordinates for red may move the	Figure 3.20. Customize Color
