Advanced Picture Menu
You can adjust the gaps in color that have occurred after a long period of use.
• Auto Calibration results in relatively coarse calibration. The color settings are not guaranteed to be the same as the factory default values.
• The colors are projected automatically while performing “Pre Check” or “Adjust.” This is not a malfunction.
• Do not turn off the power or operate the remote control or control panel during “Pre Check” or “Adjust,” as the process may be canceled.
Tips
• dE is an indicator of changing color. The smaller the value of dE, the fewer the changes caused by the color.
• Perform the calibration after the power has been on for more than 30 minutes.
• It takes a few minutes for “Pre Check” or “Adjust” to complete.
• When “Pre Check” or “Adjust” starts, the screen position may shift as the lens returns to its factory default position. After completion, the
screen returns to its previous position automatically.
• If the environment, such as the brightness of the room, changes while performing “Pre Check” or “Adjust”, measurement may be affected.
• If the “Pre Check” or “Adjust” function fails, try it again.

Projection Distance and
Lens Shift Range
The projection distance refers to the distance between the
front of the lens and the projected surface.
The lens shift range represents the distance in percent (%)
by which the lens can be shifted from the center of the
projected image. The lens shift range is regarded as 0%
when the point A in the illustration (point where a line
drawn from the center of the lens and the projected image
cross at right angles) is aligned with the center of the
projected image and full width or full height of the
projected image is regarded as 100%.
