to switch the item.
f
The items will switch each time you press the button.
[NORMAL]
Set this item when high luminance is required. [LIGHT OUTPUT] is 100 %, and the estimated runtime
is approximately 20 000 hours
*1
.
[ECO]
Set this item to increase the life of the light source, though it will lower the luminance than [NORMAL].
[LIGHT OUTPUT] is 80 %, and the estimated runtime is approximately 24 000 hours *1 .
[QUIET]
Select this item when operation with lower noise is preferred. [LIGHT OUTPUT] is 80 %, and the
estimated runtime is approximately 20 000 hours
*1
.
[USER] [LIGHT OUTPUT] can be set individually.
*1 Estimated runtime is the time until the brightness decreases to approximately half of the time of delivery when the projector is used with the

. The screen becomes brighter. The runtime becomes shorter.
20 % - 100 %
Press
q
. The screen becomes darker. The runtime becomes longer.
Note
f
When [USER] is selected, the uniformity of brightness between multiple screens can be maintained by adjusting [LIGHT OUTPUT] of each
projector when a multi-display screen is structure with multiple projectors.
f
If the runtime exceeds 20 000 hours, replacement of the components inside the projector may be required. Consult your dealer for details.
Interrelation of brightness and runtime
The projector can be operated at arbitrary brightness and duration of use by combining the settings of [LIGHT
OUTPUT], and [CONSTANT MODE] in [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP].
Interrelation of brightness and runtime is as follows. Make the settings depending on your desired duration of use
and brightness of the projected image.
Values of the brightness and runtime are rough estimations.
