Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Lumagen
Vision
™
Video Processor. It has been
designed to offer great video processing quality, while providing the best available value.
We hope you find that the
Vision
Video Processor exceeds your expectations.
The two main sections of this manual are the User Guide and the Installer Guide. As
their names imply, the User Guide provides instructions on day-to-day usage, and the
Installer Guide provides initial setup information.
To simplify references to video projectors, direct-view televisions and rear-projection
televisions, they are all referred to as a “display” in this manual.
It is important to read and understand this manual, and the display’s specifications, before
programming the
Vision
Video Processor. Also, check the www.lumagen.com
