• BRIGHTNESS UNIFORMITY
Brightness Uniformity provides further refinement of displays already matched for their primary colors and
overall light output. Use Brightness Uniformity to create an exceptionally smooth image in which no area
appears brighter than another. In the Brightness Uniformity menu, enable the Brightness Uniformity Enable
check box to access a multitude of adjustments for light output control in specific areas throughout the image.
Your settings apply as long as the Brightness Uniformity Enable check box is enabled. While making
adjustments, enable the Coarse Adjustment check box to apply Brightness Uniformity settings with a large
granularity. Coarse Adjustment helps identify brightness changes and accelerates projector response time
while adjusting settings. To disable the Brightness Uniformity function, delete the Brightness Uniformity
Enable checkmark.
WHAT IS BRIGHTNESS UNIFORMITY?
When used to refine screens already matched for their primary colors, see
Matching Colors in Multiple Screens
can create an exceptionally smooth screen in which:
• No area of the screen appears more red, green or blue than another
• No area of the screen appears brighter than another
• Color and light output from one screen closely matches adjacent screens
Although the Brightness Uniformity control can be used for a stand-alone projector, it is particularly useful
for setting up and maintaining tiled images that form a cohesive display wall in which the color "cast" and light
output appear uniform throughout each image as well as throughout the entire wall. The procedure provided
here assumes a multiple-screen application.
IMPORTANT! Before You Begin
Read through the entire procedure before attempting to adjust Brightness Uniformity controls, and keep in
mind the following checklist of prerequisites and guidelines:

ADJUST COLORS FIRST—
Matching Colors in Multiple Screens
This ensures that primary colors, color temperature, and maximized light output are all well matched from
one screen to another. These matches are needed before you can achieve good brightness uniformity
results.

RUN LAMP FOR 100 HOURS—
100 hours of lamp use. For best results with new lamps, either set up brightness uniformity after this
period, or do an initial setup and re-check at 100 hours.
