Glossary
Advanced intelligent compression
High quality resizing of lower and higher resolu-
tion images to fit the projector’s native resolution.
Anti-theft
If the “Keycode” set in the projector is not cor-
rectly entered, the projector will not operate even
if signals are entered.
Aspect Ratio
Width and height ratio of an image. The normal
aspect ratio of a computer and video image is 4:3.
There are also wide images with an aspect ratio
of 16:9 and 21:9.
Auto Sync
Optimizes projected computer images by auto-
matically adjusting certain characteristics.
Background
Initial setting image projected when no signal is
being output.
Border
Projects a 4:3 image fully within a 16:9 screen by
keeping the aspect ratio at 4:3.
Clock
Clock adjustment is used to adjust vertical noise
when clock level is incorrect.
CLR Temp (Color temperature)
Function that can be used to adjust the color tem-
perature to suit the type of image input to the pro-
jector. Decrease the color temperature to create
warmer, reddish images for natural flesh tones,
or increase to create cooler, bluish images for a
brighter picture.
C.M.S. (Color Management System)
Function allows you individually adjust the display
characteristics of six colors (R: Red, Y: Yellow, G:
Green, C: Cyan, B: Blue, M: Magenta)
Digital Shift Setting

', " buttons
when RESIZE mode of input image is BORDER,
STRETCH or SMART STRETCH of the video or
the DTV signals.
Dot by dot
Mode that projects images in their native resolution.
Gamma
Image quality enhancement function that offers a
richer image by brightening the darker portions of
the image without altering the brightness of the
brighter portions. You can select four different
modes: STANDARD, PRESENTATION, CINEMA

Keystone correction
Function to digitally correct a distorted image
when the projector is set up at an angle, smooth-
ens out jaggies on keystone images and com-
presses the image not only horizontally but verti-
cally keeping the 4:3 aspect ratio.
Notevision Lock Down
A new ceiling mounting mechanism that is ef-
fective in anti-theft and realizing improved in-
stallation strength.
Password
A password is set so that changes cannot be made
in the settings of the “Options (2)” menu.
Phase
Phase shift is a timing shift between isomorphic
signals with the same resolution. When phase
level is incorrect, the projected image typically
displays horizontal flicker.
Picture in Picture
Allows you to add video images onto a data screen
image, providing you with even more effective pre-
sentations.
Progressive Mode
The progressive display projects a smoother video
image. You can select three different modes: 2D
Progressive, 3D Progressive and Film Mode.
Resize
Allows you to modify or customize the picture dis-
play mode to enhance the input image. You can
select six different modes: NORMAL, FULL, DOT
BY DOT, BORDER, STRETCH and SMART
STRETCH.
Smart Stretch
Projects the image fully in a 16:9 screen by en-
larging only the surrounding areas while keeping
the aspect ratio in the middle part of the image at
4:3.
sRGB
An international standard of color reproduction
regulated by the IEC (International
Electrotechnical Commission). As the fixed color
area has been decided by the IEC, the color
changes according to LCD features, so that the
images are displayed in a natural tint based on
an original image, when switching to the “sRGB”
mode.
Stretch
Mode that stretches the 4:3 image horizontally to
display it fully on a 16:9 screen.
