2. Installation Guidelines 2.5 Stacking projectors What is possible? Up to 2 projectors can be stacked on each other without using extra tools or accessories. How to stack? Handle as follow: 1. Put the second projector on the first one so that base plate of the second projector matches with the rigging socket of the first projector.

3. Connections Component Video signals (PR/Y/PB) Some interfaces use progressive output signals with a double line frequency of 32 kHz. The video decoder used for the video signals is not appropriate for these signals since it can only handle 15 kHz signals. This signal has therefore to be internally redirected, this is done in the Source selection menu by selecting Data on BNC’s instead of Component video and by selecting Pr/Y/Pb in the advanced settings of the Image file menu.
3. Connections Which signal can be connected ? Standard S-Video (S-VHS) with separate Y (luma) and C (chroma) signals. In extended mode also Composite video can be connected to the S-Video plug.

In case of information contained in the amplitude of the signals which is the case of data color signals (R, G, B),image 8-32 , we are quite sure that the amplitude of these color signals is subject to alterations.
8. Image Menu 0.7V Black level Image 8-32 ∆ ∆Β ∆ Black level Image 8-33 One can conclude here that a good color tracking can only be met by using three previously (input) balanced color signals Analog Digital Conversion The analog color signals must pass through an Analog/Digital conversion circuit prior to any digital processing in the PMP. A typical ADC transforms the analog value into an 8 bit coded digital signal.
8. Image Menu 8.10.2 Adjusting the input balance How can it be done ? To balance the three color signals of a particular source there are conditions; in fact we must know the black and the white level of the source i.e. : The source in question must be able to generate a white signal, ideally a 100% white (background) full screen pattern The source in question must be able to generate a black signal, ideally a 100% black (background) full screen pattern Image 8-35...

8. Image Menu • The white balance happens only on Green. Adjust until bright spots appear in the image. Image 8-42 • The black balance happens on the three colors. The PR and PB connector have to be removed from the input. Adjust until noise appears in the image.
