How to switch the input impedance (signal level) of the
synchronization signal
When the ET-MD95RGB input module (sold separately) is mounted, the user can switch the input impedance
(signal level) of the synchronization signal with the analog RGB input.
Choose 75 Ωwhen connecting with the equipment whose synchronization output impedance is 75 Ωsuch as a
signal selector, or switch to HI-Z (TTL) when connecting with the equipment whose synchronization output is TTL
such as a video card of a PC.

compensation is to be provided.
Select the BRIGHT OUTSIDE with the
buttons.
Adjust the compensation value (0-255)
with the buttons.
• The BRIGHT adjustment is a function for making the brightening of the BRIGHT level in those areas
where the pictures overlap less conspicuous when multi-screens have been configured using edge
blending.  The optimal point is where, after the BRIGHT INSIDE has been adjusted, the compensation
amount is the same for the BRIGHT levels in the areas where the pictures overlap and where the
pictures do not overlap.  If, after the BRIGHT INSIDE adjustment, only the vicinity of the borders of the
areas where the pictures overlap and where the pictures do not overlap becomes bright, proceed to
adjust the top, bottom, left and right widths.  Alternatively, if only the vicinity of the borders has
darkened as a result of the width adjustments, proceed with the BRIGHT OUTSIDE adjustment.
• When a rear screen or screen with a high gain is used, the joints may appear to be discontinuous
depending on the viewing position.Note

How to use RGB REALITY mode
RGB REALITY mode converts RGB (primary colors) input signals into component signals and achieves the high-
quality playback by motion-image-specific picture conversion process.
This mode is effective only when the signal input is applied to the RGB input signal module (ET-MD95RGB).
The appropriate mode can be selected according to the signal. (Refer to page 69)
RGB mode: For RGB signals input from a PC etc. (mostly still images)
RGB REALITY mode: For RGB signals input from a scan converter etc. (mostly motion images)
The following are the signals that can be converted into RGB REALITY mode:

: Use the signal in the RGB REALITY mode because the signal may not be supported depending on
the state of the signal.
: Not supported
• The automatic picture adjustment (page 43) and the adjustment of the input resolution (page 63)
cannot be performed because the optimal adjustment value is preset in the RGB REALITY mode.
• The projectors adjustment functions in the RGB REALITY mode are the same as those for the YP
BPR
(or YCbCr) input.
• If RGB is selected using the SYSTEM SELECTOR button when the RGB signals in the above table
have been input to the RGB1 and RGB2 terminals, playback with a high picture quality will be achieved
automatically by the motion-image-specific picture conversion process.
Note
