About the marks being used in this manual

 refers to as explanations/instructions for DLA-NX5 series.

Items without markings are for all models.

“JVC Projector Calibration Software” is a tool that enables you to use the projector in an optimal condition at all times 

with the use of a commercially available optical sensor.

Calibration Feature

By performing a precise calibration with easy procedures in optimizing the projected images, which changes 

depending on the installation conditions, such as installation position of the main unit, lens shift/zooming position, 

you can enjoy high-quality images that are suitable for the installation conditions. You can also maintain the projector 

in an optional state by correcting distortions, such as those in the color balance, which are caused by the prolonged 

use of the projector.

Environment Settings

Adjusts the video settings according to the installation environment to minimize any influence on the image quality 

by objects, such as white walls or indirect illumination.

Import/Export Image Quality Adjustment Data

Enables you to save the image setting data to a PC from the projector, or imported from a PC to the projector via the 

LAN terminal.

Gamma Data Adjustment Feature

Allows you to adjust the gamma curve of the projector according to your preference.

* “JVC Projector Calibration Software” is designed to adjust gamma and color display by changing the settings of the 

projector.

* Please note that setting of the projector is changed by using this software.
