Projector Overview

The J Series is a family of high resolution video/graphics 3 chip 1080p HD, SXGA+ and WUXGA projectors,
see Table 1.3 J Series
Instruments.

1.3.1 How the Projector Works

The projector accepts data/graphics and video input signals for projection onto front or rear screens. Light is
generated by a xenon lamp, then modulated by three Digital Micro-mirror Device (DMD) panels that provide
digitized red, green or blue color information. Light from the "ON" pixels of each panel is reflected, converged
and then projected to the screen through a single front lens, where all pixels are perfectly superimposed as a
sharp full-color image.

1.3.2 User Interface Overview

The projector can be controlled via a menu system displayed on the image. The menu system can be controlled
by an IR remote, wired remote or through the built-in keypad. The LCD screen and built-in keypad allow
functions to be controlled without the need of an OSD display, and provide a quickly accessible interface to
view error reporting. The functions on the OSD can also be controlled using the Christie Serial Protocol, via a
serial or Ethernet connection to the projector. The Web interface provides access to the menu system as a
Virtual OSD (On-screen display) and to features that maintain the projector software and settings.
