Proxima Dp6500x Projector User Manual

							32 Advanced settings
Sharpness: (video sources only) changes the clarity of the edges of a video 
image. Select a sharpness setting.
Color Space: This option applies to computer and component video 
sources (it won’t appear in the menu for S-video or composite video 
sources). It allows you to select a color space that has been specifically tuned 
for the video input. When Auto is selected, the projector automatically 
determines the standard. To choose a different setting, turn off Auto, then 
choose RGB for computer sources, choose either SMPTE240, REC709, or 
REC601 for component video sources.
Color Temperature: changes the intensity of the colors. Select a listed 
value, or select User and individually adjust the intensity of the red, green, 
and blue colors.
Video Standard: When it is set to Auto, the projector attempts to pick the 
video standard automatically based on the input signal it receives. (The 
video standard options may vary depending on your region of the world.) If 
the projector is unable to detect the correct standard, the colors may not 
look right or the image may appear “torn.” If this happens, manually select 
a video standard by selecting NTSC, PAL, or SECAM from the Video Stan-
dard menu.
Overscan: (video sources only) removes noise around the video image.
The following 4 options are for computer sources only. 
Phase: adjusts the horizontal phase of a computer source.
Tr a c k i n g: adjusts the vertical scan of a computer source.
Horizontal/Vertical Position: adjusts the position of a computer source.

Settings menuAudio: allows adjustments to the sound Balance between speakers and 
speaker Volume. The Internal speakers and projector startup Chime can be 
turned on or off by placing or removing a check in the respective check-
boxes.
Sources>Power-up Source: this determines which source the projector 
checks first for active video during power-up. 
Sources
: allows you to assign a particular input to a specific source key as 
an optional full-featured remote. Also allows selection of a default Power-
up Source and enables or disables Autosource. When Autosource is not 
checked, the projector defaults to the source selected in Power-up Source. If 
no source is found, a blank screen displays. When Autosource is checked, 
Power-up Source determines which source the projector defaults to at 
power-up. If no signal is present, the projector checks the sources in order 
until a source is found or until power down. 
System>Rear: reverses the image so you can project from behind a translu-
cent screen.
Ceiling: turns the image upside down for ceiling-mounted projection.
NOTE: It is recommended that all final image adjustments in Ceiling mode 
are made once the unit has fully warmed up.
Auto Power: When Auto Power is checked, the projector automatically 
goes into the startup state after the projector is powered on. This allows con-
trol of ceiling mounted projectors with a wall power switch.
Display Messages: displays status messages (such as “Searching” or 
“Mute”) in the lower-left corner of the screen.
Low Power: toggles between on and off. Turn it on to lower the light output 
of the lamp. This also lowers the fan speed, making the projector quieter.
Pow e r  S av e: automatically turns the lamp off after no signals are detected 
for 20 minutes. After 10 additional minutes with no signal, the projector 
powers down. If an active signal is received before the projector powers 
down, the image will be displayed.

Screen Save: automatically blanks the screen with a black color after no sig-
nals are detected for a preset number of minutes. The image returns when 
an active source is detected or a remote or keypad button is pressed. Screen 
Save is disabled when Power Save is enabled.
Startup Logo: allows you to display a blank Black, White, or Blue screen 
instead of the default screen at startup and when no source is detected. 
Blank Screen: determines what color displays when you press the Blank 
button on the remote or there is a blank screen when no source is active.
Effect Key: allows you to assign a different function to the Effect button on 
the remote to quickly and easily use the effect. Only one effect can be 
enabled at a time. Highlight an effect and press Select to choose a different 
one. 
Blank: shows an empty screen. 
Mute: turns off all sound. 
Aspect Ratio: sets the ratio of the image width to image height.
Source: cycles through the available sources.
Auto Image: causes computer sources to be reacquired.
Freeze: pauses the projected image.
Zoom: lets you magnify a part of the screen. To use the Zoom effect, 
press Effect, then press the remote’s mouse left-click to zoom the 
image, press the mouse right-click to decrease the magnification. You 
can use the cursor control to pan the image, displaying different parts 
of it (only if the image is magnified). To return to the original size and 
cancel Zoom, press the Effect button a second time.
About: is the default effect. It displays the About menu.

The Network Info menu is informational and cannot be edited. It displays 
the current IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and the projector’s 
MAC Address.
Language: allows you to select a language for the onscreen display of 
menus and messages.
Service: 
To use these features, highlight them and press Select.
Factory Reset: restores all settings (except Lamp Hours and Network set-
tings) to their default after displaying a confirmation dialog box.

cleaner directly to the lens. Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh 
chemicals might scratch the lens.

Replacing the projection lampThe lamp hour timer in the About menu counts the number of hours the 
lamp has been in use. After 1,980 hours, the message “Change lamp” briefly 
appears on the screen at each startup. When the timer reaches 2,000 hours, 
the lamp will no longer light. You can order new lamp modules from your 
dealer. See “Accessories” on page 40 for information.1
Turn off the projector and unplug the power cable. 
2
Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.
3
Turn the projector upside down and remove the lamp door by removing 
the two screws and sliding the lamp door tabs out of the three tab bays.
CAUTION: Never operate the projector with the lamp door removed. 
This disrupts the air flow and causes the projector to overheat.
4
Loosen the captive screw on the lamp module.

WARNINGS: 
To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before 
you replace the lamp.
Do not drop the lamp module. The glass may shatter and cause injury.
Do not touch the glass lamp screen. Fingerprints can obscure projection 
sharpness.
Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely 
event that the lamp ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated. 
The lamp module is designed to contain most of these fragments, but 
use caution when removing it.5
Carefully remove the lamp module by grasping and lifting the metal 
bail wire. Dispose of the lamp in an environmentally proper manner. 
6
Install the new lamp module, making sure that it is properly seated.
7
Tighten the single screw.
8
Replace the lamp door by sliding the tabs into the tab bays and tighten-
ing the two screws.
9
Plug in the power cable, then press the Powe r button to turn the projec-
tor back on.
10
Reset the lamp hour timer.
Resetting the lamp timerIf the lamp timer has reached the maximum number of hours for the projec-
tor lamp (2,000 hours), the LED on the projector’s keypad will show a lamp 
error (see “LED behavior and meaning” on page 16). To reset the lamp age, 
simultaneously holding down the two Vo l u m e keys on the projector’s key-
pad for 10 seconds. At that point the LED will turn green and you can 
power on the projector. 
You can also navigate to the Settings>Service menu and select Lamp Reset 
to reset the lamp timer.
