13 MENU DESCRIPTION

To access the main On Screen Display menu, press the Menu key on the keyboard or the key Menu + or Menu - on the remote control

(Fig. 46)

Fig. 46

The main menu is divided into four sections to cover various adjustments in a practical and logical manner. The on-screen menu layout is dependant upon the chosen input signal so various options may not be applicable, i.e. some typical adjustments to the video signal are not applicable to the graphic RGB signals from PC and viceversa.

13.1 PICTURE

This menu features adjustments relating to the projected image quality.

13.1.1 BRIGHTNESS

Use this control to adjust the image’s black level.

13.1.2 CONTRAST

Use this control to adjust the image’s white level, be careful not to over saturate the white level.

13.1.3 COLOR

Use this control to adjust the colour level.

13.1.4 TINT

Controls the purity of the colours, to NTSC coded signal standards. Tint is only applicable to video input with NTSC standard, to RGB 15kHz and YCrCb 15kHz inputs and YCrCb 32kHz (no RI2).

13.1.5 SHARPNESS

Use this adjustment to increase and decrease the level of picture detail.

13.1.6 SHARPNESS MODE

It allows to select the type of processing that determines the detail. In progressive or de-interlaced video signals the video option is suggested, with graphic signals from a PC the Graphic option is suggested.

13.1.7 FILTER

For video signals it improves the image’s horizontal/vertical definition and sharpness.

13.1.8 CINEMA MODE

In Auto the de-interlaced recognizes if the video signal is originated from a cinematographic film (resulting from Teleciné with 3:2 or 2:2 Pull Down) and applies an interpolation algorithm optimized for this type of signal. Instead if the video signal does not originate from a cinematographic film, or Off is chosen, the de-interlacer applies a “Motion Compensated” algorithm optimized for signals coming from a videocamera.

13.1.9 VIDEO TYPE

Inserts a filter that improves stability of images from video-recorders. To toggle between Normal and VCR mode,

press the VCR key on the remote control.

QUICK MENU

It's possible to access to adjustment herewith showed, using the P+ and P- keys on remote control, without recalling the main menu.

13.2.1 POSITION

Use this adjustment to position the image vertically and horizontally.

13.2.2.2 Anamorpchic

This aspect allows to properly visualize an image 16:9

13.2.2.3 Letterbox

This aspect allows to project a 4:3 letterbox image fil-ling the 16:9 screen and maintaining the correct aspect ratio.

13.2.2.4 Panoramic

This aspect stretches the 4:3 image slightly cutting the upper and lower parts. It's ideal to project a 4:3 image in a screen of 16:9 aspect ratio.

13.2.2.5 Pixel to Pixel

This aspect projects the signal as it is input without scaling up or down. Image is projected in the center of screen.

13.2.2.4 User 1, 2, 3

Image aspect ratio selection

By repeatedly pressing the key or by pressing the and one of the numeric keys 1...8 of the remote control, it is possible to select the aspect ratio.

13.2.2.1 Normal

This aspect projects the image occuping the full vertical dimension of the screen and maintaining the correct aspect (4:3 or 16:9).

By using the Horizontal and Vertical adjustments it is possible to select the screen shape of your choice. It is important to keep the relation between height and width so that the correct aspect ratio can be maintained.

Screen Control. If an appropriate screen-masking interface is connected to the 12V output socket “ ” it is possible to re-frame the screen to a variety of aspect ratios and screen sizes (please refer to the screen manufacturer’s manual).

13.2.3 FREQUENCY / PHASE

In the case of RGB graphic signals this adjustment is used for synchronization of the RGB image to the number of pixels on the DLP.
