  • Page 94 A p p e n d i x A Glossary This appendix defines the specific terms used in this manual as they apply to this projector. Also included are other general terms commonly used in the projection industry. Active Line Time The time, inside one horizontal scan line, during which video is generated.
  • Page 95 Appendix A: GLOSSARY Checkbox A menu item that indicates whether an option is currently in effect (checked) or not (unchecked). Color Shift A change in the tint of a white field across an image. Color Temperature The coloration (reddish, white, bluish, greenish, etc.) of white in an image, measured using the Kelvin (degrees K) temperature scale.
  • Page 96 Appendix A: GLOSSARY screens with gain more than 1 direct more incident light to the audience but have a narrow viewing angle. For example: An image reflecting off a 10 gain screen appears 10 times brighter than it would if reflected off a matte white wall. Curved screens usually have larger gain than flat screens.
  • Page 97 Appendix A: GLOSSARY Line of Best Viewing When light from a projector is incident on a screen, the light reflects from the screen such that the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence. The Line of Best Viewing is along the line of reflection. Loopthrough The method of feeding a series of high impedance inputs from a single video source (Loopthru)
  • Page 98 Appendix A: GLOSSARY Resolution (lens) The maximum number of alternate white and black horizontal lines that can be distinguished on a screen when a photographic target is placed between the lens and a light source and illuminated by that source. Resolution (projector) The maximum number of pixels that the projector can display horizontally and vertically across an image, such as 1024 x 768 (called XGA).
  • Page 99 A type of RGB video with digital characteristics. Throw Distance The distance between the front feet of the projector and the screen. Also called "Projector-to-Screen Distance”. Always use the correct Christie throw distance formula to calculate the proper throw distance (±5%) required for your lens. Tint Balance of red-to-green necessary for realistic representation of NTSC signals.
