Using the preset and user modes
Selecting a preset mode
The projector is preset with several pre-defined picture modes so that you can choose one
to suit your operating environment and input source picture type.
To select a preset mode that suits your need:
1. Press MENU/EXIT and then press / until the Picture menu is highlighted.
2. Press to highlight Preset Mode.
3. Press / until your desired mode is selected.
These modes consist of preset values suitable for various projection situations as
described below:
• Cinema: With well-balanced color saturation and contrast with a low brightness level,
this is most suitable for enjoying movies in a totally dark environment (as you would
find in a commercial cinema).
• Dynamic: Maximizes the brightness of the projected image. This mode is suitable for
environments where extra-high brightness is required, such as using the projector in
well lit rooms.
• Standard: It is slightly brighter than Cinema mode, and suitable for use in rooms
where there is a small amount of ambient light.
• 3D: It is optimized to bring up 3D effects when watching 3D contents.
This mode is only available when 3D function is enabled.
• User 1/User 2/User 3: Recalls the customized settings. See "Setting the User 1/User
2/User 3 mode" on page 37 for details.
User 3 is only available when 3D mode is enabled.
Fine-tuning the selected picture mode
The pre-defined picture mode settings can be altered via the available items shown in the
Picture menus.
To fine-tune the picture mode:
1. Press MENU/EXIT and then press / until the Picture menu is highlighted.
2. Press to highlight the item you want to adjust and press / to set your
desired value. Your selection is automatically stored in the projector and associated
with that input source.
See "Fine-tuning the selected picture mode" on page 36 and "Advanced picture
quality controls" on page 39 for details.
Each time you change the picture mode, the projector also changes the setting to the one
which was last set for that particular picture mode on that particular input. If you change
the input source, the most recently used picture mode and settings for that input and
resolution will be restored.
