C3X Lumis HOST

1 INTRODUCTION

The

C3X Lumis HOST

system combines the video signal processing capacity of the

HOST

system with the reproductive fidelity of the projector employing DLP™ technology, connecting the two units via optical fibre.

The

HOST

system, ideally placed next to the sources, is able to acquire and process a very wide range of video signals, and to send them, via an optical fiber connection, to the projector.

Its range of inputs (2 Composite Video inputs, 2 S-Video inputs, 4

Component or RGB inputs (3 via Phono/RCA connection & 1 Via

BNC connection), 2 graphic RGB inputs, 6 HDMI™ inputs, 1 SDI input, 1 DVI-D input) allow it to be connected to a wide range of analogue and digital sources: DVD players, video recorders, satellite and terrestrial receivers, computers, video game consoles, camcorders, etc. Its image processing system permits optimum reproduction of a wide range of input signals, from interlaced video to high definition and digital graphics. Faithful reproduction of signals at higher resolutions (such as high definition video and graphics) occurs without loss of information or reduction of image sharpness thanks to the processor’s high pixel rate signal acquisition capabilities. Different input signal resolutions can be adapted to match the specified screen resolution without loss of image quality, thanks to a generous selection of default aspect ratios, some of which are user definable. All picture adjustments can be made with the remote control interacting with a simple menu-activated On

Screen Display; alternatively, the projector can be controlled by a domestic automation system through its serial port , the 1.1 USB port, an RS232 serial port or the RJ45 Ethernet port.

Read this manual carefully.

This manual contains important information on how to install and use this equipment correctly. Before using the equipment, read the safety prescriptions and instructions carefully. Keep the manual for future consultation.

Do not touch internal parts of the units.

Inside the housing there are electrical parts carrying dangerously high voltages and parts operating at high temperature. Never open the housing. Entrust all servicing and repair work to an authorised Service

Centre. Opening the housing voids the warranty.

Disconnecting the appliance from the power supply.

The device which disconnects the unit from the mains is the power plug.

Ensure that the power cable plugs and the electrical mains socket outlets are easily accessible during installation operations. Pull the plug, not the cable, to disconnect the unit from the mains. Use only the specified power supply.

Connect the units to a mains electrical supply with rated voltage of between

100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz and equipped with a protective earth connection. If you are not sure of your domestic mains rating, contact an electrician. Take care to avoid overloading the power socket and any extension leads.

C3X Lumis Host RS232 Port Connector

The RS232 Port placed on the projector back panel is only for service operations. Do not use this port. For all remote applications use RS232

Port placed on HOST Connections panel.

Changing the fuses (HOST System and Projector)

Before changing the fuse, disconnect the unit from the mains power supply. The fuse compartment is next to the power supply connector.

Remove the fuse holder with a flat head screwdriver and replace the fuse. Fit the replacement fuse. Use only T 10A L H fuses for the projector and FUSE T 3,15 A H, 250V~ fuses for the HOST system.

Be careful with cables.

Make certain cables are routed so that people will not be impeded or tripped up. Keep all cables away from children. Install the unit as close to the wall socket as possible. Avoid stepping on power cables, make certain they do not become tangled, and never jerk or tug them; do not expose them to sources of heat, and make sure they do not become knotted or crimped. If the power cables become damaged, stop using the system and request the assistance of an authorised technician.

Connection of the units to the mains power supply.

(HOST System and Projector)

Connect the unit as shown in Figure.

Disconnect the unit from the mains power during electrical storms and when not in use.

To prevent damage from lightning strikes in the vicinity, disconnect the unit during storms or when the system is going to be left unused for a long time.

Avoid contact with liquids and exposure to damp.

Do not use the unit near water (sinks, tubs, etc.); do not place objects containing liquids on or near the units and do not expose them to rain, humidity, drops of water or sprays; do not use water or liquid detergent to clean them.

Do not allow the units to overheat.

To prevent overheating, allow a free space of at least 20 cm at the back of the projector. Do not obstruct the ventilation slots. Do not place the unit near heat sources such as heaters, radiators or other devices (including amplifiers) that generate heat. Do not place the unit in an area where there is insufficient space (shelving units, bookshelves, etc.) and in general avoid placing it in poorly ventilated areas as this may prevent sufficient cooling.

Never look directly at the projection lamp.

Never look directly at the lamp when it is on as the intense light may damage your eyes. Take particular care that children cannot do so.

Take special care regarding movement of the lens.

Do not place objects in the slots on the side of the lens, and also ensure that vertical lens movements are not imped ed by external objects.

Place the unit on a stable surface.

Place the projector on a stable surface or use the ceiling mounting bracket provided. Never place the projector on its side or rear, on the lens or top panel.

Do not insert objects through the openings in the unit.

Make sure that no objects are inserted inside the units. If this should occur, disconnect the unit from the power supply immediately and call an authorised technician.

Power saving.

We advise disconnecting the unit from the power supply when not in use. In this way you will achieve considerable power savings while at the same time protecting internal electrical parts from wear.

! ATTENTION:

Do not switch off the HOST system via the front panel or remove the power without first setting the system into standby and allowing the unit to complete the cool down sequence.

The HOST and projector are in constant communication with each other, therefore when switching off the system, both units must switched off together and vice versa when powering on the system. In the event of a power outage it is recommended to completely reset the HOST and projector.

PRODUCT DISPOSAL

This projector is fitted with a pressurised lamp containing a small amount of mercury. These lamps may be subject to special disposal regulations due to environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or, if you are located in the

6 INSTALLATION

POSITIONING THE 2 UNITS

The C3X Lumis HOST system is made up of two separate units (HOST and C3X Lumis projector), each of which have a power cable and are connected to each other by a 20 m long optical fibre cable. Ideally, the HOST system should be placed on the top of a cabinet. Make sure that the surface it stands on is stable and that there is sufficient space around it to permit good ventillation (at least 3 cm). Place the projector on a stable surface or use the optional ceiling mount bracket.

! WARNING:

When using the ceiling mount bracket, the safety instructions provided with the bracket must be strictly observed. Placed the projector at the desired distance from the screen: the size of the projected image depends upon the distance between the lens and the screen and the zoom setting. See the APP.1 for further details.

CONNECTING THE TWO UNITS

The connection between the two units is made with a single cable containing three fibre optic cables each terminating in an LC connector. The standard cable length of 20 m will be sufficient for most installation requirements.

During installation of the fibre optic cable:

• this could cause the connectors to be pulled out and damaged.

Ferrule

After removing the protective caps from the fibre optic cable connectors and the panel connectors, insert the fibre optic connectors carefully, matching the numbers shown on each element. Be very carefully when handling fibre optics and connectors.

HOST - OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTIONS

• The individual optical cables are delicate: always handle the main cable without touching the individual optical cables. Never pull the individual optical cables or connectors; if necessary, you may pull the main three-core cable.

• Only remove the cap protecting the connector ferrule immediately before inserting the connector; if the ferrule is allowed to come into contact with foreign material it may be damaged, making the connector unusable.

• Take particular care when inserting fibre optic connectors in their respective sockets on the rear panel of the

HOST system and on the back of the Projector.

• Make sure that the single optical cables are not switched: the numbers on the cables must match the numbers on the connectors.

Check that the connectors are correctly inserted.

Make sure that the cable does not constitute an obstacle for persons moving around the room.

Take care not to create knots in the cable; the minimum radius of bends in the cable is 2 cm.

Prevent the cable from pulling and mechanical stress:

CONTROLLING THE 2 UNITS

The remote control supplied (IR, infrared operation), permits full control of the system. It controls both the HOST™ system and the projector since both are equipped with an

IR sensor on the front while the projector also has an IR receiver on the back. The two units are connected by a cable containing three optical fibres, each ending with an LC connector. The standard cable length (20m), permits even the most demanding installations.

CONNECTIONS TO VIDEO SOURCES

Connect the cables from the video sources, the serial cable from an external control unit and the fibre optic cables for hooking up with the Projector to the rear panel of the HOST system.

To obtain the best performance from the C3X Lumis HOST system, connect the various signal sources using good quality cables designed for video applications.

Ensure that:

• the cables are routed in such a way that they do not present an obstruction to people moving around the room;

• the connectors are inserted carefully to avoid damaging the pins; the cables are not twisted or crushed; when disconnecting the cables the connectors are not violently pulled out of the connectors on the various units.

20 cm (7,87 inches)

20 cm (7,87 inches) air inlet

20 cm (7,87 inches) air outlet

Failure to observe the above warnings may cause the fibre optic cable to break. It is appreciated that it is not always practical or convenient but due to the fragile nature of fibre optic cables we highly recommend to test the cable prior to and after installation. Also it is good practice to examine the cable between fixes and making good just in case other trades haven’t accidentally damaged the cable. All cables are fully tested prior to shipping. SIM2 cannot be held responsible for damage caused to property or incurred costs as a result of a malfunctioning cable.

! WARNING:

Video sources (television receivers, VCRs, DVD players, etc.) often feature several outputs. To obtain the best performance from your system, carefully choose which output to use.

Generally, the type of signal offering the best picture quality is HDMI™, followed by DVI-D, RGB, Components, S-Video and Composite Video, in that order.

However, the C3X Lumis HOST system is equipped with an excellent Video Decoder and Deinterlacer and therefore even inferior quality signals will produce high quality results.

PROJECTOR VENTILATION

“The lamp inside the projector generates a great deal of heat, thus requiring a continuous flow of air to maintain op

sides of the projector and it is critical that these vents re main free from obstruction. SIM2 recommends a distance of 20 cm clearance each side. If the projectors is to be mounted inside a “Hush Box” or a confined space then the projector must be fed a supply of cool air to maintain good ventilation.

Inadequate ventilation will result in the projector overheating, this may cause the projector to shut down randomly and will damage the lamp and significantly shorten the lamp life.”

NETWORK FUNCTIONS (RJ45 connector)

The C3X Lumis HOST system has a 10/100 Mbit Ethernet interface located on the HOST system connector panel to connect the projector to a LAN network or to the Internet.

The network connection can be used to remotely control the projector from any workstation with access to the network by sending TCP/IP protocol commands.

Additionally, by suitably configuring the network specifications, you can receive e-mail notifications on the operating status of the C3X Lumis HOST system.

Network Setting

IP Configuration

Email Configuration

IP: 172.031.127.045

MAC: 00:00:00:00:00:00

This menu screen permits you to:

1. access the menu for setting the projector’s network address;

2. access the menu for entering the e-mail address for receiving notifications on the projector status.

The projector’s current IP address and MAC address (physical address) are displayed at the bottom of the screen.

N.B. The system is delivered with default factory settings, in which the dynamic IP address (DHCP) is active. If the network to which the projector is connected has no DHCP server, the current IP address displayed on screen may not be valid.

TYPE OF IP ADDRESS

This screen permits you to select the type of IP address to be assigned:

1. Static IP: the IP address, network SUBNET and GATE-

WAY must be entered manually.

2. Dynamic IP (DHCP): choose this option if you want the projector IP address to be automatically assigned by the network DHCP server (in most networks the DHCP server is a router).

REMOTE CONTROL

In order to control the projector by TCP/IP protocol, you must specify the TCP port to which the connection must be made (called TCP socket). Choose the port number and set “Port 1”. If you want to establish a connection with the projector via the Internet, the port chosen for remote connection must be accessible from outside (usually a Virtual

Server is created in the network router to make the projector’s IP address accessible from a Personal Computer connected to the Internet).

SAVING SETTINGS

9 VIDEO CONNECTIONS

ATTENTION: When switching between inputs the image is deliberately ‘frozen’ to allow time for the system to stabilize, during this time you may see color changes & noise on screen - this is perfectly normal and not a malfunction of the projector

COMPOSITE VIDEO

(1-2)

Fit an RCA connector with a Composite Video (CVBS) signal to this input.

The output connector on the external appliance is normally coloured yellow and will often be labelled VIDEO.

Other signal and socket formats may be preferable (because they give better image quality), but this type of output socket is still the most commonly used, and nearly all television receivers, video recorders, DVD players and camcorders, etc. use it.

S-VIDEO

(3-4)

Fit a mini-DIN connector with an S-Video signal to this input.

The corresponding output on the external device is normally identified by the labels S-VIDEO or Y/C. This type is nearly as common as Composite Video, and is preferable to the latter, since it gives higher image quality.

RGB - YPrPb

(5-6-7-8)

These inputs use a set of 5 RCA connectors and 5 BNC connectors. RGB and Component signals can be applied to each set of connectors.

If you use the RGB inputs you can select YPrPb video mode. RGB signals may feature composite synchronisation on the green signal (RGsB), or on the HV signal.

Connect the R, G, B outputs of the source to the respective

R, G, B inputs of the HOST system (taking care not to invert the positions) and any synchronisation signals to the HV.

With regard to the 3 sets of RCA connectors, when hooking up, use the colours of the RCA connectors as an aid as follows: the R connector is red, G is green, B is blue and

HV is white. You can use a SCART to RCA adapter cable to connect the RGB signal from a source equipped with a

SCART output to this input.

The Component signals connect to the Y, Pr and Pb inputs: take care that the inputs match the outputs on the source device.

Since these may be labelled differently, refer to Table 1 to establish the correspondence between the various signals.

As indicated in the table, the colours of the connectors can also be of help.

Only horizontal scanning frequencies of 15 kHz (standard video resolution) or 32 kHz or higher (high definition video, with progressive scanning, high definition video) can be applied to this input.

Progressive signals usually provide better quality than interlaced signals, but if the source features both progressive and deinterlaced signal outputs it is good practice to compare the quality of the pictures reproduced by the C3X

Lumis HOST in the two cases: the deinterlacing performed by the C3X Lumis HOST is often more effective than that performed by the sources themselves.

GRAPHICS RGB / YPrPb

(9-10)

This input should be connected to an RGB/YPrPb type video or graphic signal using a cable with a DB15HD type connector. The signal source device (typically a personal computer or game console) must be able to provide separate

H/V synchronisation or composite H+V synchronisation.

DVI-D (Non HDCP)

(11)

This input permits you to make the best use of digital image quality. If your source has a DVI-D output (with YPrPb or

RGB signal) connect it to this input.

HDMI™

(12-13-14-15-16-17)

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) integrates an uncompressed high definition video signal with a multichannel audio signal and allows exchange of control data between the video source and the C3X Lumis HOST.

The HDMI™ input allows connection to video sources that use the HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) protocol to protect their contents. Once the video source has been connected to the HDMI™ input, internal processing by the C3X Lumis HOST separates the video information from the audio information.

You can use a DVI-D > HDMI adapter cable to connect the

DVI-D signal from a source equipped with a DVI-D output.

The design of the HOST means that the connection to source equipment can be as short as possible, therefore reducing the need for long HDMI cable runs. HDMI gives the user access to some of the highest picture quality currently available today. The system uses an encryption system called HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) which protects recorded media from being copied illegally via Satellite, cable, PC and the next generation of disc based systems such as Blu-Ray. The connection between source and display requires the two devices to “hand-shake” and pass to each other the encryption keys before a picture can be displayed. Therefore it is perfectly normal to experience a short delay before the picture appears on screen.

SDI

(18)

The HDSDI/SDI input permits you to connect sources with serial digital outputs in YPrPb components in compliance with the SMPTE292M (high definition) and SMPTE259M-

C (standard definition) standards. The signal, of the uncompressed type, is transmitted digitally by single coaxial cable, thus guaranteeing a high level of resistance to noise and disturbance.

CONTRAST

Use this control to adjust the images white level without affecting its dark areas. For correct adjustment it may prove useful to display a grey scale with at least twenty bands.

Now try to increase the brightness of the white band as much as possible while ensuring that it can still be distinguished from the adjacent band with brightness slightly less than white.

Alternatively use a scene composed of well-lit white objects surrounded by light objects with lower level lighting, and try to ensure that all the objects can be separately identified.

COLOUR

This control (also called Saturation) increases or decreases the picture colour intensity. When set to zero, colour images will be shown in black and white.

Increase the value until the colours appear natural: suitable references include skin tones and grass in landscape shots.

BRIGHTNESS

Use this control to adjust the darker areas of the picture

(black level), without affecting bright areas. Increasing the value will give more detail in darker parts of the picture. For correct adjustment it may prove useful to display a grey scale with at least twenty bands. Now try to reduce the brightness of the black band as much as possible while ensuring that it can still be distinguished from the adjacent band with brightness slightly higher than black. Alternatively use a scene composed of black objects alongside other dark coloured objects and try to ensure that all the objects can be separately identified.

TINT

This adjustment controls the purity of colours. Basically it determines the red-green ratio of the picture. Decreasing the value increases the red content of the image, increasing it increases the green content. For this adjustment use skin tones or a test card image with colour bars as a reference.

SHARPNESS

This adjustment serves to modulate the signal to increase or decrease the level of picture detail. When the sharpness value is reduced the image details appear less pronounced, while increasing the value raises image definition, making the outline of objects sharper.

Note that an excessively high value may result in a noisy picture and the edges of objects may appear unnaturally clearly defined.

SHARPNESS MODE

This allows you to select the type of processing associated with sharpness adjustment. For an interlaced or progressive video signal, set to Video; for PC graphics signals, set to Graphics.

If the VIDEO option is set, it applies Noise Reduction to increase the clarity of the image.

FILTER

This allows you to select the mode in which the input signal is processed. Selecting the most appropriate value for a given input signal ensures the best horizontal and vertical definition and makes the picture sharper.

CINEMA MODE

Use this option if the video signal source is a movie film

(obtained from a Telecin device with 3:2 or 2:2 pull-down).

In this case a deinterlace algorithm optimised for this type of signal is applied. Selecting AUTO mode causes the deinterlacer to analyse signal characteristics and apply the correct deinterlace mode automatically.

User 1, 2, 3:

Use this option if none of the default aspects are satisfactory. User formulas make it possible to continuously adjust the picture size horizontally and vertically and therefore the aspect ratio too.

With progressive HDMI signals, for all resolutions, “User” adjustment can be used only in decreasing mode: the increment mode is intentionally set to value “0”.

ASPECT

This adjustment allows you to change the dimensions and aspect ratio (relationship between width and height) of the displayed image. There are six default aspects available and three user aspects (user adjustable parameters). You can select a different aspect for each source: the selected aspect ratio will be automatically applied the next time the relative source is displayed.

You can also select the required aspect ratio from the remote control by repeatedly pressing the the

The following aspects are available: key or by pressing

key and one of the number keys (1...9).

Normal:

projects the image occupying the full height of the screen while maintaining the aspect ratio of the input signal. When the input signal aspect ratio is 4:3, black vertical bands are displayed on the right and left of the picture.

Anamophic:

correctly displays a 16:9 image.

Letterbox:

displays a 4:3 letterbox image (source signal with black bands above and below the picture) in such a way that it fills the

16:9 screen and maintains the correct aspect.

Panoramic:

widens the 4:3 image cutting off a strip from the top and bottom. Panoramic is ideal for displaying a 4:3 image on the

16:9 screen of the Display.

Subtitles:

raises the image, to make space for subtitles.

Pixel to Pixel:

makes a pixel to pixel map of any image, without adapting it to the screen. The image is projected in the centre of the screen and if its horizontal and/or vertical dimensions are smaller than the display, it is bordered by vertical and/or horizontal black bands.

COLOUR TEMPERATURE

Changes the colour balance of the image.

You can choose one of the 5 default settings or use the user mode for manual adjustment:

The default setting are:

NATIVE (the projector’s native primary colours)

HDTV, EBU, SMPTE-C, primary colours defined by the standards.

AUTO, mode that applies one of the standard settings described above.

PC, a mode that is available only if instructions regarding the colour temperature have been sent to the projector by a PC using the Live Colors Calibration software.

If the default white balance settings are not sufficient, you can adjust the white balance manually.

Colour temperature can be adjusted by positioning the white point within the CIE chromaticity diagram. The system permits you to place the white point inside a grid positioned in the neutral colour zone. Moving along the horizontal lines changes the related colour temperature, with low temperatures on the right

(thus increasing the red content) and high temperatures on the left of the graph (thus increasing the blue content). Points along the yellow horizontal line represent the colours on the black body curve. The colour temperature along the vertical lines is constant but differs to a lesser or higher degree from the black body curve. This means that by selecting the points on the higher part of the graph you will increase the blue content. On the contrary, by selecting points in the lower part of the graph, you will increase the purple content.

Gamma Correction

Determines the systems response to the grey scale, emphasising or attenuating the different grades of brightness (blacks, dark, medium, light greys, whites) in the projected image.

The projector has a range of gamma functions which enable you to display any image to the best effect for the type of video source, the ambient lighting and your subjective preferences.

There are 3 sets of gamma curves: Standard (ST), Enhanced

SIM2 (EN) and Graphics (GR). The Standard curve has been defined for general use, and is set for video cameras, digital cameras, and for viewing films or photos from your PC.

GAMMA CORRECTION SETTINGS

Standard

ST1 For general use.

Enhanced SIM2

EN1 Suitable for displaying images from camcorders, digital cameras or TV studios in bright ambient light.

EN2 Suitable for displaying images from camcorders, digital cameras or TV studios in poor ambient light.

EN3 Suitable for projecting films in bright ambient light.

EN4 Suitable for projecting films in moderate ambient light.

EN5 Suitable for projecting films in controlled ambient lighting conditions.

Graphics

GR1 Suitable for displaying graphic images (e.g.

Windows Desktop) in moderate lighting conditions.

GR2 Suitable for displaying graphic images in controlled lighting conditions.

The Enhanced set is suitable for watching movies. The Graphics set is suited to displaying synthetic graphics (PC desktop, CAD,

PC presentations, etc.).

By selecting User you can define your own curve. You can thus select the coefficient which determines the curve. Values from

1.5 to 2.2 allow you to emphasise the detail of dark images, but reduce overall contrast. Values higher than 2.2 increase overall contrast, but reduce the detail of dark areas. For the most common video sources, by setting the value to 2.2 you can achieve pleasant and well-contrasting images.

DYNAMIC BLACK

The C3X Lumis HOST Projector allows for custom picture contrast settings through both its “Variable Iris”, set to accommodate the environment viewing light conditions, and by enabling the “Dynamic Black” function. The latter setting enables another dynamically controlled iris that reacts to the image content by considerably increasing the black level thus achieving better picture depth and detail in mid to low brightness scenes.

By enabling the Dynamic Black function in conjunction with the Variable Iris setting, you will obtain the best possible picture quality based on the installation light conditions.

POSITION

Use this adjustment to position the image vertically and horizontally. It determines the aspect ratio of the projected image.

These parameters do not normally require adjustment because the system checks the input signal and automatically sets the most suitable values.

However, if the image is not perfectly centralised it may prove useful to request the system to repeat the input signal analysis and image positioning, by requesting the automatic control procedure with button A on the remote control or the AUTO button on the keypad. When this procedure is requested, it is helpful to project a picture with a white or light-coloured background on the screen.

FREQUENCY/PHASE

These adjustments, available for progressive signals and for signals from a PC, ensure correspondence between the number of pixels making up the signal and the number of pixels that make up the projected image.

These parameters do not normally require adjustment because the system checks the input signal and automatically sets the most suitable values.

If however the image is disturbed (loss of resolution between equidistant vertical bands or instability and lack of detail in thin vertical lines) it may help to ask the system to rerun the input signal analysis and set the best parameters by requesting the automatic adjustment function with button A on the remote control or AUTO on the keypad.

OVERSCAN

Eliminates irregularities around the outer borders of the image.

Some less accurate sources may produce an image with uneven borders; thanks to the overscan function these

15

C3X Lumis HOST_ EN.indd 15 11-02-2009 14:40:33

C3X Lumis HOST imperfections can be moved outside the displayed area.

Setting the parameter to 2.2, typically yields pleasant, wellcontrasted images. For most common video sources, the overscanning setting may be from 0 (no overscan) to 32

(highest setting).

The resulting image always maintains the selected aspect

Y/C DELAY

Where Video and S-Video signals are concerned, it may be necessary to correct horizontal colour misalignment within the projected image. For a given video standard (e.g. PAL or NTSC) the stored value does not normally require further fine-tuning, unless the source or connection cable is changed.

SETUP

The setup menu groups adjustments that have an impact on the image characteristics. Any adjustments not available for a given input will not be displayed in the menu. The following table summarises the adjustments available for each input.

ORIENTATION

Reverses the image vertically and horizontally to best fit the installation: i.e. desktop front, ceiling front, desktop rear and ceiling rear.

VERTICAL KEYSTONE

To achieve the maximum image quality, we recommend installing the projector on a surface which is perpendicular to the screen. If the projected image is not level, adjust the feet on the bottom of the projector to bring it into a level position, lining up the base of the projected image with the base of the projection screen (Fig.26).

If this adjustment is insufficient to centre the image, tilt the projector and use the vertical/horizontal keystone adjustment to compensate for the resulting distortion.

In STANDBY mode the projector remains in STANDBY mode and awaits the power-up command from the remote control or keypad.

VARIABLE IRIS

The C3X Lumis HOST features a variable iris which allows users to choose between High Contrast or Optimum Picture modes. The Iris control is accessed via the OSD. Press

Menu +/- on the remote control repeatedly, until the ‘Setup’ page is displayed.

Open:

Use this setting to get optimum performance from the projector. This will give the ideal balance between Contrast,

Brightness & Colour. SIM2 recommends this setting for Home

Theatre applications.

Closed:

Use this setting to achieve a higher contrast. By closing the Iris, Brightness and Colour performance will be reduced.

LAMP POWER

If your projection room is especially dark, the images projected by the C3X Lumis HOST system may appear to be excessively bright.

Use the LAMP POWER function to reduce the power used to operate the lamp while achieving maximum image quality.

In this way, the brightness of the image will be adapted to your projection conditions and a longer life.

MEMORIES

The main picture parameters can be saved in discrete sets of values called Memories so that they can be subsequently applied as a group using a single command.

There are 6 separate Memories (Memory 1, Memory 2.... -6) for each of the 14 signal types handled.

The following image parameters can be saved/recalled by the Memory Management system:

Image

BRIGHTNSS

CONTRAST

COLOUR

TINT

SHARPNESS

FILTER

NOISE REDUCTION

ASPECT

COLOR TEMPERATURE

OVERSCAN

GAMMA CORRECTION

Some of these parameters may not be available for certain inputs or certain input signals, as indicated in Tables 4 and

5.

The Memory Management function menu page is activated by pressing the key on the remote control.

SAVING A MEMORY

To save the current image settings in Memory 1, move the cursor to line 1 using the ▼ and ▲ keys and open the dropdown menu by pressing the ◀ key. Select the “Save current settings” line. The message “Current settings saved” will be shown at the bottom of the display to confirm that the operation has been completed. Repeat the operation to save other image settings in new memories.

USING A MEMORY

To use a Memory, select the line in question and press the

▶ key. The settings stored in the memory you have selected will be applied to the projected image, while a message will confirm that Memory has been applied. The memory will be associated with the particular source and signal type and will be automatically applied whenever that particular combination of source and signal type is selected.

RESTORING INITIAL SETTINGS FOR A MEMORY

When you need to restore the initial settings in a Memory that has previously been modified, select the line referring to the

Memory in question and open the corresponding pull-down menu (key ◀). Then select the “Save initial settings” line.

A message stating “Initial settings saved in Memory 1” will appear at the bottom of the display.

RENAMING A MEMORY

All Memories can be named. To assign a name (with a maximum length of 12 alphanumeric characters) to a Memory, select the Rename option from the corresponding pull-down menu. Enter the text as described in the paragraph Text

Entry.

RESTORING CURRENT SETTINGS

When you enter the MEMORIES menu a copy of the current settings is saved in a temporary memory (marked 0 - AUTO).

Once one or more memories have been recalled, you can restore the settings that were effective at the moment the

Memories menu was accessed by selecting Memory 0 (0 -

AUTO). Note that this operation must be performed before the Memories menu page disappears (30 seconds after the last operation with the remote control or keypad). The next time it appears, in fact, the temporary memory will contain new information that takes account of any Memories selected on the last time but one that the MEMORIES page was accessed.

Memory 0 can be used even when you do not wish to enable

Memories management for the signal in use. In fact, once

Memory 0 has been selected, when a source is chosen, the settings that were effective at the time the Memory was previously recalled will be automatically applied.

INFO

Displays the current operating status of the projector and information concerning the projected video/graphic signal.

This function is displayed by pressing the key on the re-

QUICK MENUS

The quick menus provide access to the main adjustments that affect image quality without opening the main menu.

BRIGHTNESS, CONTRAST, COLOUR, TINT, SHARPNESS,

FILTER and NOISE REDUCTION adjustments appear at the bottom of the screen one after the other when the ▼ and

▲ keys are pressed.

MESSAGES

The following messages may appear on your screen:

No signal:

The system does not recognise any signal applied to the selected input. In this case:

Make sure the selected input is connected to a video or graphic signal and that that source is functioning correctly.

Check the condition of the cables used to connect the system to the various sources.

Make sure the video or graphic signals supplied by the source are compatible with the system’s technical specifications and, in particular, with those of the selected input.

Out of range

This message appears when either the resolution or the vertical/horizontal frequency of the input signal exceeds system specifications (e.g. a QXGA graphic signal).

11 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

The HOST system do not require internal adjustments and do not contain any user-serviceable parts.

To change the lamp, or for any repairs, always contact your nearest technical service centre that will resolve all your problems in a courteous and efficient manner.

To clean the outer cover of the projector use a soft cloth and moisten slightly if necessary with water and a small amount of neutral soap. Do not rub hard on the printed captions on the rear panel.

The lens may be cleaned with a very soft, non-abrasive small brush, in order to remove dust particles. Alternatively, use a soft dry cleaning cloth (of the type used for camera lens cleaning) to remove fingerprints and grease marks.

12 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

NO POWER (LEDs ALWAYS OFF)

Check that the projector’s power switches are turned on.

Check that the power cables are correctly connected to the projector’s power sockets.

Check the condition of the fuse located next to the power socket at the rear of the projector.

Replace the fuse located on the projector’s power socket with an identical type (T 3,15A H).

If the fuse blows repeatedly, seek technical assistance from your nearest service centre.

LAMP FAILS TO SWITCH ON

If this happens immediately after the last time the unit was switched off, allow a few minutes between switching off and switching on again.

This will allow the lamp to cool down to the optimum temperature for switching on.

If the lamp fails to light - even though the unit has had time to cool down - seek technical assistance from your nearest service centre.

Check the state of the connection by using Table 1 to interpret the code displayed by the system LEDs.

Reset the Projector & HOST by turning off the power on both units. Wait 10 seconds before powering on again.

Check fibre Optic cable connections on Projector and

Host.

NO IMAGE

Make sure the selected input is connected to a video or graphic signal and that that source is functioning correctly.

Check that the source is HDCP compliant, you will not get a picture using encrypted material via the DVI-D input.

Make sure the video or graphic signals supplied by the source are compatible with the C3X Lumis HOST system’s technical specifications and, in particular, with those of the selected input.

Check the condition of the cables used to connect the projector to its input sources.

Check the state of the connection by interpreting the code displayed by the system LEDs.

Make sure the cooling air vents on the units are not blocked and that the room temperature is below 35°C.

PICTURE OK ON 1080i & 720P MATERIAL BUT NO

PICTURE DISPLAYED IN 1080P 60HZ/50HZ?

This usually means that the HDMI cable has insufficient bandwidth to pass 1080p 60hz/50hz.This is quite commonon cheap cables and also excessively long cables.

We suggest using better quality cables and as short as possible, avoid cables in excess of 10mtrs.

C3X Lumis HOST

APP.2 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION (VERTICAL SHIFT)

To install the C3X Lumis HOST system correctly place the projector so that the projected image completely fills the screen. Ideally, to avoid image distortion, the projector should be positioned perfectly perpendicular to the projection screen, as shown in the figure below. The centre of the projection lens should be lined up with the centre of the projection screen .
