Interrelation of luminance and runtime
The projector can be operated at arbitrary brightness and duration of use by combining the settings of [MAX
LIGHT OUTPUT LEVEL], [LIGHT OUTPUT], and [CONSTANT MODE] in [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP].
Interrelation of luminance and runtime is as follows. Make the settings depending on your desired duration of use
and brightness of the projected image.
Values of the luminance and runtime are rough estimations.

Note
f The runtime may be shorter than the estimation due to the inuence of characteristics of each light source, conditions of use, installation
environment, etc.
f The duration of use is referred to as the runtime when you use the projector successively. The duration of use is an estimated duration and
is not the warranty period.
f If the runtime exceeds 20 000 hours, replacement of the components inside the projector may be required. Consult your dealer for details.
Setting [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP]
Set the operation of the brightness control function.
The [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP] setting is synchronized with the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu →
[BRIGHTNESS CONTROL] → [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL SETUP]. The most recent setting is reected in both
items.
1) Press as to select [OPERATION SETTING].
2) Press the <ENTER> button.
f The [OPERATION SETTING] screen is displayed.
3) Press as to select [CONSTANT MODE].
4) Press qw to switch the item.
f The items will switch each time you press the button.
[OFF] Does not correct the brightness of the screen by the brightness sensor.
[AUTO]
Corrects the brightness of the screen by the brightness sensor.
When the brightness of light source or white balance changes, the brightness of the screen is
automatically corrected.
[PC]
Synchronizes nine or more projectors using a computer and the dedicated software “Multi Monitoring
& Control Software”
