Ceiling mounting the
projector
We want you to have a pleasant experience
using your BenQ projector, so we need to bring
this safety matter to your attention to prevent
possible damage to person and property.
If you intend to mount your projector
on the ceiling, we strongly recommend
that you use a proper fitting BenQ
projector ceiling mount kit and that
you ensure it is securely and safely
installed.
If you use a non-BenQ brand
pr
ojector ceiling mount kit, there is a
safety risk that the projector may fall
from the ceiling due to an improper
attachment through the use of the
wrong gauge or length screws.
You can purchase a BenQ projector

BenQ recommends that you also
purchase a separate Kensington lock
compatible security cable and attach it
securely to both the Kensington lock
slot on the projector and the base of
the ceiling mount bracket. This will
perform the secondary role of
restraining the projector should its
attachment to the mounting bracket
become loose.

The projector is preset with several predefined picture modes so that you can choose one
to suit your operating environment and input signal picture type.
To select an operation mode that suits your need, you can follow one of the following
steps.
•Press MODE/ENTER on the projector repeatedly until your desired mode is
selected.
• Go to the Picture > Picture Mode menu and press ◄/► to select a desired mode.
1.Bright mode: Maximizes the brightness of the projected image. This mode is
suitable for environments where extra-high brightness is required, such as using the
projector in well lit rooms.
2.Presentation mode: Is designed for presentation. The brightness is emphasized in
this mode to match PC and notebook coloring..
3.sRGB mode: Maximizes the purity of RGB colors to provide true-to-life images
regardless of brightness setting. It is most suitable for viewing photos taken with an
sRGB compatible and properly calibrated camera, and for viewing PC graphic and
drawing applications such as AutoCAD.
4.Vivid mode: This is suitable for displaying colorful video and pictures with well-
balanced color saturation and high color brightness.
5.3D mode: Is appropriate for playing 3D images and 3D video clips.
6.Infographic: Is perfect for presentations with the mixture of text and graphics due
to its high color brightness and better color gradation to see the details clearly

functions by highlighting them and press ◄/► on the projector or remote control.
Adjusting Brightness
The higher the value, the brighter the image. And
lower the setting, darker the image. Adjust this
control so the black areas of the image appear just as
black and that detail in the dark areas is visible.
Adjusting Contrast
The higher the value, the greater the contrast. Use
this to set the peak white level after you have
previously adjusted the Brightness setting to suit
our selected input and viewing environment.

Adjusting Color
Lower setting produces less saturated colors. If the setting is too high, colors on the image
will be overpowering, which makes the image unrealistic.
Adjusting Tint
The higher the value, the more reddish the picture becomes. The lower the value, the
more greenish the picture becomes.
Adjusting Sharpness
The higher the value, the sharper the picture becomes. The lower the value, the softer the
picture becomes.
Adjusting Brilliant Color
This feature utilizes a new color-processing algorithm and system level enhancements to
enable higher brightness while providing truer, more vibrant colors in picture. It enables a
greater than 50% brightness increase in mid-tone images, which are common in video and
natural scenes, so the projector reproduces images in realistic and true colors. If you
prefer images with that quality, select On. If you don’t need it, select Off.
When Off is selected, the Color Temperature function is not available.

*About color temperatures:
There are many different shades that are considered to be "white" for various purposes.
One of the common methods of representing white color is known as the “color
temperature”. A white color with a low color temperature appears to be reddish white. A
white color with a high color temperature appears to have more blue in it.

3D Color Management
In most installation situations, color management will not be necessary, such as in
classroom, meeting room, or lounge room situations where lights remain on, or where
building external windows allow daylight into the room.
Only in permanent installations with controlled lighting levels such as boardrooms, lecture
theaters, or home theaters, should color management be considered. Color management
provides fine color control adjustment to allow for more accurate color reproduction,
should you require it.
Proper color management can only be achieved under controlled and reproducible viewing
conditions. You will need to use a colorimeter (color light meter), and provide a set of
suitable source images to measure color reproduction. These tools are not provided with
the projector, however, your projector supplier should be able to provide you with suitable
guidance, or even an experienced professional installer.
The Color Management provides six sets (RGBCMY) of colors to be adjusted. When you
select each color, you can independently adjust its range and saturation according to your
preference.
If you have purchased a test disc which contains various color test patterns and can be
used to test the color presentation on monitors, TVs, projectors, etc. You can project any

For example, if you select Red and set its value at 0,
only the saturation of pure red

Saturation is the amount of that color in a video picture. Lower settings produce less saturated
colors; a setting of “0” removes that color from the image entirely. If the saturation is too high,
that color will be overpowering and unrealistic.
