The grayscale video signal is measured in IRE units. In some areas which use NTSC TV
standard, the grayscale is measured from 7.5 IRE (black) to 100 IRE (white); however, in
other areas where PAL equipment or Japanese NTSC standards are used, the grayscale is
measured from 0 IRE (black) to 100 IRE (white). We suggest that you check the input
source to see if it is with 0 IRE or 7.5 IRE, then select accordingly.

This feature utilizes a new color-processing algorithm and system level enhancements to
enable higher brightness while providing truer, more vibrant colors in picture. It enables a
greater than 50% brightness increase in mid-tone images, which are common in video and
natural scenes, so the projector reproduces images in realistic and true colors. If you
prefer images with that quality, select
On
. If you don’t need it, select
Off

*About color temperatures:
There are many different shades that are considered to be "white" for various
purposes. One of the common methods of representing white color is known as the
“color temperature”. A white color with a low color temperature appears to be
reddish white. A white color with a high color temperature appears to have more
blue in it.
