10.3.1 Dynacolor concept and expert use

Concept
Dynacolor allows setting a desired color reproduction - within the limits of the projector - by digitally changing the primary and sec-
ondary color coordinates. In multiple channel display systems, it is used to fine tune the colors of all devices to create color uniformity
all over the full image.
If Dynacolor is disabled, the projector can display any combination of its native primary colors R (red), G (green) and B (blue). A set
of all combinations of the device's primary colors is called the color gamut of that projector. It can be presented as a color triangle
in the CIE chromaticity diagram where each vertex is defined by the x and y coordinate of the primary colors. The white point W
can be moved within the color triangle by changing its x and y coordinates, resulting in different color temperatures.
Due to the tolerance on optical components the X, Y value of the primary colors of different devices is slightly different.

Color triangle: native color gamut of a projector
Dynacolor can be used to create a color triangle which is slightly different from the original color triangle of the projector. The
coordinates of the desired color triangle (R, G, B and W) are stored in Dynacolor sets. Activating a Dynacolor Set enables the
corresponding color triangle, resulting in a different color reproduction.
