become available. Live Color Calibration lets you define a custom color gamut in terms of
primaries (red, green and blue), secondaries (yellow, cyan and magenta) and white color
coordinates. Therefore when one of these custom modes is selected, sections 2 and 3
are disabled.

•
lect one of the nine preset settings of the white point:
◦ Standard the white point associated to the value selected in column 1
◦ High, Medium, Low default white balance levels
◦ Native the projector native white point
◦ D75, D65, D50 the C standard CIE illuminants
◦ User a white point that can be adjusted according to your personal preferences as
Note: To accurately set the Primaries and White Point you will need access to specialized color
measuring equipment and also the knowledge to use such equipment. Alternatively, contact the
SIM2 Authorized Dealer where you purchased your product and ask them to arrange for an ISF
certified calibrator to set up your projector.
Gamma Correction
Determines the projector response to the gray scale, emphasizing or attenuating the different
grades of brightness (blacks, dark, medium and light grays, whites) in the projected image.
Choose the setting that is appropriate to the type of video source, the ambient lighting and your
subjective preferences. The available settings are:
Natural the default preset curve, appropriate for most situations
•
Dynamic the preset curve that increases the detail in the dark areas of the image
•
Parametric that lets you select the coefficient that determines the curve. Coefficient va-
•
lues smaller than 2.2 emphasize the detail of dark images, while reducing overall contra -
st. Values larger than 2.2 increase overall contrast, but reduce the detail of dark areas.
For the most common video sources, if you set the parameter to 2.2 you obtain pleasant
and well-contrasted images.
Note: When using Live Color Calibration software, Natural and Dynamic preset curves can be re-
placed by two custom curves.
Overscan
Removes the outer edges of the image and magnifies the remaining portion of the image to fill
the display area. It is useful with sources that output images with imperfections around their
borders.
Position
Use this adjustment to position the image vertically and horizontally. These parameters do not
normally require adjustment because the projector checks the input signal and automatically
sets the most suitable values. However, if the image is not perfectly centered it may prove useful
to make the projector repeat the input signal analysis and image positioning, activating the au-
tomatic adjustment procedure with the Auto key on the remote control. When this procedure is
requested it is helpful to have a white or light colored background in the current picture on the
screen.

▪ press the number 3 on the remote control to activate the User column
▪ position the white point within the CIE chromaticity diagram
