Fig. 12
For rear projection the screen must be translucent.
For front projection, we recommend the use of screens with
low gain specifications (i.e. 1.3 to 2).  The use of high gain
screens should be avoided due to their limited viewing angle, 
						

							9 which is undesirable for a large audience.
Preferably, use a screen with black, non-reflecting borders,
which will perfectly frame the projected image.
Avoid light shining directly on the screen during projection as
this will reduce contrast and black level detail on the projectedimage.  For the true cinema experience best results are
achieved with little or no ambient light.
Furniture and other objects with reflecting surfaces, as well as
light coloured walls should be avoided, as they are likely to
interfere with the screen’s characteristics.
5   SWITCHING ON AND OFF THE PROJECTOR
CAUTION: Connect the projector to a power supply
with a nominal voltage within the following values:
100-240 Vac, 50/60 Hz. It must be earthed 
(Fig. 13).

SWITCHING OFF AND RETURNING TO STAND-BY
By remote control: press 
By keyboard: press key  
When switching off, the projector goes in to stand-by
memorising the input selection at the time of switch-off.
The fans will continue to work until the lamp has cooled down
(red and green LEDs flashing) and will stop automatically afterthis period.
Be sure to keep power to the projector onwhen the unit is turned
off to insure that the cooling fans function properlyLED INDICATORS
The LED indicators, located in the top-rear of the projector,
provide information about the state of  the projector (see table
below).
6   CONNECTIONS
To obtain the best performance from your projector, we
recommend the use of good quality “video cables” to the various
signal sources (75 ohm Impedance).
Poor quality cables will cause inferior picture performance.
For optimum connectivity we recommend you follow these
simple steps:
- With exception of coaxial RCA/Phono type connectors,
always double-check that the plug is inserted the correct
way round to avoid damaging the plugs or the sockets on
the projector 
(Fig. 16).

signal (RGsB) or on the luminance (Y) signal (YsCrCb) through
a cable with RCA/Phono type connector 
(Fig. 20).

							12 red, G is green, B is blue and  HV is white.  By using a suitable
SCART to RCA  connector adapter cable, an RGB video signal
from a source equipped with an SCART connector can be con-
nected to this input.
Component signals are connected to inputs Y, Cr and Cb, tak-
ing care to observe the correspondence with the outputs on
the source. The video signals that can be connected to this
input can have horizontal scanning frequencies of 15 kHz
(standard video resolution), 32 kHz, or higher (progressive scan-
ning video, high definition video).
Some sources provide the facility to choose between a pro-
gressive signal or an interlaced signal. Although in general a
progressive signal is higher quality than an interlaced signal, it
is often preferable to perform the deinterlacing operation on
the projector rather than on the source because the projector
is equipped with Faroudja’s sophisticated directional correla-
tion deinterlacing technology (DCDi™).
DIGITAL INPUT
The Digital Input allows to extend the signal quality to audio
signal as well.
Through this input it is possible to connect to source capable
of delivering excellent digital images supported by multi-
channel digital audio and by control data (
Fig. 21a).
The internal data elaboration by the projector divides the video
data from audio data.
The audio data is available through a TOSLINK connector for
fiber optic output (
Fig. 21b).

Fig. 22
The projector is equipped with two outputs (Voltage: 12 Vdc)
for motorised projection screen and screen masking systems.
These 12V outputs should be connected to the appropriate
screen interface provided by the screen manufacturer 
(Fig. 22).
The +12V output is activated when the projector is switched on
(green LED on) and is de-activated when the projector is in
stand-by mode (red LED on).
The output 
 can be used to control a screen masking system;
its output can be set with the “Screen control” adjustment in
the  “Aspect” menu. This output allows reduction in the area of
a 16:9 screen, into a 4:3 format, by activating a screen masking
system (refer to screen manufacturer for further information).

PICTURE
This menu features the adjustments related to picture quality.
Adjustments that are not available for a given input do not
appear on the menu. 
Table 1 summarises the adjustments
available for each input. For a complete overview of the on-
screen menus, consult the ‘On screen menu layout’ in the
“Additional Information” section.
BRIGHTNESS
Use this control to adjust the image’s black level without
affecting white areas. Increasing the value will give more detail
in darker parts of the picture. For correct adjustment it may
prove useful to display the signal relative to the grey scale within
which the black level and the level immediately above it must
be separately identifiable. Alternatively use a scene composed
of black objects alongside other dark coloured objects.
CONTRAST
Use this control to adjust the image’s black level without
affecting white areas.
To ensure correct adjustment, it may prove useful to display
the signal relative to the grey scale, within which the white level
and the level immediately below it must be separately
identifiable. Alternatively use a scene composed of well-lit white
objects surrounded by light coloured objects with lower level
lighting.
COLOR
This control (also called Saturation) increases or decreases
the picture colour intensity. When set to zero, colour images
will be shown in black and white. Increasing the value, try to
find the point at which the colours look natural: suitable
references include skin tones and grass in landscape shots.
TINT
Controls the purity of the colours. Basically determines the
red-green ratio of the picture.
Reducing the value will boost the red contents of the picture,
increasing the value will boost the green tones. For this
adjustment use skin tones or a test pattern image with colour
bars as a reference.
SHARPNESS
Use this adjustment to increase and decrease the level of
picture detail.
When the sharpness value is reduced the image details
appear less pronounced, while increasing the value raises
image definition, making the outline of objects sharper.
Note that an excessively high value may result in a ‘noisy’ picture
and the edges of objects may be unnaturally defined.
SHARPNESS MODE
This allows you to select the type of processing associated
with sharpness adjustment. In the case of a progressive or
interlaced video signal 
VIDEO mode is advisable; with PC graphic
signals use 
GRAPHIC MODE.
FILTER
This allows you to select the mode in which the input signal
is processed. Selecting the most appropriate value for a given
input signal ensures the best horizontal and vertical definition
and makes the picture sharper. 
						

							17 TABLE 1INPUT SIGNALS AND ADJUSTABLE/SETTING ITEMS
CINEMA MODE
In AUTO the deinterlacer recognises if the video signal source
is a movie film (obtained from a Telecine device with 3:2 or 2:2
pull-down) and applies a deinterlace algorithm optimised for this
type of signal.
If the video signal source is not identified as a film, or if you
select 
NO the deinterlacer applies a Motion compensated
algorithm optimised for video camera signals.
VIDEO TYPE
Activates a filter to improve stability of pictures from video
recorders. To toggle between 
NORMAL, VCR1 mode and VCR2
mode press  on the remote control.
NOISE  REDUCTION
This adjustments allows to choose the filter value for noise
reduction purposes.
As soon as this option is selected on the menu, the image is
divided in two parts.In the left side the image is not altered by the filter, in the right
part the filter is activated.
This allows you to compare the effect of the filter.
It is possible to deactivated the filter (
NOT ACTIVE), to use the
automatic adjustments (
AUTO) or to manually select (MANUAL)
the value suitable for the image with the 
VALUE adjustment.
In case of using the 
VALUE adjustement, it is enoght to select to
cursor below and set the value with the  /  keys of the remote
control.
Associated to the 
NOISE REDUCTION there is the possibility to use the
specific function 
(FLESH TONE CORRECTION) to make skin tone more
natural. Often the use of noise reduction filter slightly degrades
the image in those areas where skin tones are visible. With the
use of this function it is possible to maintain an excellent image
quality throughout the entire projected image.
