Configuration - Adjusting System Parameters and Advanced Controls

Use the Configuration menu to define general
operating parameters and communications with
other projectors and equipment, and to access other
advanced processing and image adjustments
affecting overall performance. The Configuration
menu provides access to diagnostics, calibration
tools and the Service submenu (password-
protected).
The first six options in the Configuration menu are
explained below:
LANGUAGE
Choose the available language to use in the
projector's menus. The change will take effect
immediately.
OUTPUT OPTIONS CARD - S
• SCREEN IMAGE ORIENTATION
Select the on screen image orientation from Front, Rear, Front Inverted, and Rear Inverted.
• FRAME LOCKING
Select how the projector controls the output frame timing based on the input signal. When set to Framelock,
output image frames are locked to the input if possible. When Locked, the output is always locked to the
primary input, never the PIP/Secondary image. Free Run sets the output to close to 60Hz for all sources.
When switching to a new input with framelocking enabled, the image will appear black for a short
NOTE:
duration while the system locks onto the new input.
• SET FRAME DELAY
This control delays the output signal timing relative to the input signal timing by a fraction of a frame, and up
to several frames. The minimum latency can vary based on the amount of scaling applied to the image. When
using keystone or warping, an additional latency is required, depending on the amount of warp. The control is
only available when the input signal is frame locked. In free run mode, or in cases where the signal cannot be
frame locked, the minimum latency defined by the scaling and keystone/warp is applied to the signal.
• ACTUAL FRAME DELAY
Dynamically calculated by the software as the achievable range being smaller than the set range. The image
parameters include, image shift, scaling, warp/keystone applied and format. The menu displays both the user
selected value and the actual frame delay value. When setting up tiling of projectors, all projectors in the tile
should be set to the worst case, which is the projector with the highest minimum for the setup.
• FREE RUN FREQUENCY
This control sets the output video vertical frequency.
• FADE TO BLACK TIME
This control sets the amount of time (in seconds) that it takes to fade the image to/from black.
only allows the fade time to be set. To initiate a Fade to Black, the Christie Serial command should be used.
