7.2.5 Defining the system color gamut
All colors visible to the eye are defined by CIE Chart in Figure 7-7. The boundary of the colors
the projector can display is called the system color gamut. The white triangle in Figure 7-7 is
an example of a system color gamut. By default the projector has the widest possible system
gamut, which is limited by the color wheel selected for the system. The VizSim color wheel
has the widest color gamut and the High Brightness color wheel has the smallest.
The system color gamut cannot be expanded outside color gamut defined by the
color wheel.
It may be desirable to change the system color gamut of the projector to:
- Color match multiple projectors.
- Meet defined color standards, like REC 709.
- Create a special “look” to the image.
Before the system color gamut can be change the desired RealColor™ mode has to be
defined. To change the RealColor™ mode, please go the menu entry PICTURE > REAL-
COLOR > DESIRED VALUES > DESIRED COORDS MODE.
RealColor™ has to be enabled for the desired system gamut to be applied. Go to menu entry
PICTURE > REALCOLOR > COLOR CORRECTION to enable RealColor™.
After RealColor™ is enabled and the desired color correction mode is selected, please go
the menu entry PICTURE > REALCOLOR > DESIRED VALUES to change the color points to
the your desired system color gamut.
For graphical visualization of the system color gamut and easy color management for
a single or multiple projectors, the ProNet software package could be used. A license
for the calibration software package of ProNet must be purchased separately.
