Setting itemDetails
[AUTO CONTRAST]
(Automatic light source  adjustment) [OFF]
Does not adjust the light source.
[1] - [255] The higher the value, the stronger the light adjustment of the light 
source. 
Can be set in increments of 1.
[BRIGHT SIGNAL LEVEL]
(Setting of the brightness level  of the signal to start the light  adjustment) [6%] - [50%]Adjusts the light source when the brightness level of the video 
signal being input gets lower than the set value. The higher the 
value, the larger the range to perform the light adjustment of the 
light source.
Can be set in increments of 1
  %. (Factory setting: 30   %)
[LIGHTS OUT TIMER]
(Time setting until the light turns  off) [DISABLE]
Does not turn off the light source. 
[0.0s] - [10.0s] Turns off the light source when the brightness level of the video 
signal being input goes under the value set in [LIGHTS OUT 
SIGNAL LEVEL].
Select an item from [0.0s] - [4.0s], [5.0s], [7.0s], or [10.0s]. [0.0s] -

Note
 f[LIGHTS OUT  SIGNAL LEVEL] cannot be set when [LIGHTS OUT TIMER] is set to [DISABLE]. fWhen [LIGHTS OUT
 TIMER] is set to anything other than [DISABLE], the following are the conditions to turn the light source back on again 
from the state that the light source has turned off by this function.
 g When the brightness level of the video signal being input has exceeded the value set in [LIGHTS OUT  SIGNAL

 LEVEL]
 gWhen the input signal is gone gWhen on-screen display such as menu screen (OSD) or input guide, a test pattern, or a warning message is displayed gWhen the operating environment temperature is around 0

  °C (32   °F) and the light source is forced to turn on due to warm-up
 fWhen [LIGHTS OUT

 TIMER] is set to anything other than [DISABLE], it will take approximately 0.5 seconds to turn the light source back on 
again from the state that the light source has turned off by this function.
 f When the image of analog signal is projected, the image may be af

fected by the signal noise while the brightness level of the video signa\
l is 
detected. In this case, even when the brightness level of the image falls below the value set in [LIGHTS OUT  SIGNAL LEVEL], it is judged 
that the brightness level is not below the value as a signal.
 f The contrast will be maximized when [DYNAMIC GAMMA] is set to [3]. fThe brightness control function and the dynamic contrast function will o\
perate simultaneously

, but the dynamic contrast function will not 
operate while measuring the brightness and the color.
 f The contrast synchronization function is a function to display a combine\
d screen with a balanced contrast by sharing the brightness level of 
the video signal input to each projector when a multi-display is constru\
cted by combining the projected image of multiple projectors.
 fThe [3D SYNC SETTING] setting is disabled and fixed to [OFF] when [MUL TI PROJECT

Be careful of this when selecting the aspect ratio.
 f If using the projector in places such as cafes or hotels to display prog\
rams for a commercial purpose or for public presentation, note that 
adjusting the aspect ratio or using the zoom function to change the scre\
