Setting the shutter synchronization function
The shutter synchronization function is a function to synchronize the shutter operation of the specified projector 
to other projectors, and the effect using the shutter function including the fade in/fade out operation\
 can be 
synchronized.
To use the shutter synchronization function, it is necessary to connect t\
he projectors targeted for synchronization 
in a loop with daisy chain connection using the  terminal and the  terminal. For details of how to connect the projectors, refer to “Connecting example 
when using the contrast synchronization function/shutter synchronization function” (
x
  page   55).

Interrelation of luminance and runtime
The projector can be operated at arbitrary brightness and duration of use by combining the settings of [MAX 
LIGHT OUTPUT LEVEL], [LIGHT OUTPUT], and [CONSTANT MODE] in [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP].
Interrelation of luminance and runtime is as follows. Make the settings depending on your desired duration of use 
and brightness of the projected image.
Values of the luminance and runtime are rough estimations.

corrects brightness and white balance of the projected image according t\
o the changes in brightness and color of 
the light source.
By using this function, in such a condition that multiple screens are configured using projected images of multiple 
projectors, you can reduce changes in overall brightness and white balan\
ce of the multiple screens due to aging 
of the light source and suppress variation in brightness and white balan\
ce to preserve uniformity.

Note
 fWhen [CONST ANT MODE] is set to [AUTO] or [PC], keep the shutter function disabled (shutter: open) for at least two minutes, since the 
brightness sensor calibration is performed after the [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL  SETUP] setting has been completed.
 fIf the shutter function is enabled (shutter: closed) within approximately 10 minutes after the light source has been turned on while the 
projector operates with [CONST

ANT MODE] set to [AUTO] or [PC], brightness and color cannot be measured. Therefore, brightness may be 
corrected approximately two minutes after the shutter function is disabled (shutter: open).
 f When the projector operates with [CONST

ANT MODE] set to [AUTO] or [PC], the brightness and color of the light source do not stabilize for 
approximately eight minutes after the light source is turned on.  Therefore, the brightness and color of the light source will be automatically 
measured after approximately eight minutes have elapsed after the light source is turned on.
 f When the projector operates with [CONST

ANT MODE] set to [AUTO], and [LINK] set to [OFF], the brightness will be corrected until it 
reaches the value set in [MAX LIGHT OUTPUT LEVEL].
 f The variation in brightness may increase due to dust accumulating on the\
 lens, screen, or inside the projector

, depending on the installation 
environment of the projector.
 f When the variation in brightness has increased due to aging of the light\
 source, or when you replaced the light source, readjust the
