13.13 Color space

Color space
A color space or color standard is a mathematical representation for a color. For example the RGB color space is based on a Cartesian coordinate system.
What can be adjusted ?

The color space (gamut), the collection of colors which can be reproduced by the projector, can be adjusted to 4 predefined stored values (one projector specific, 2 international standards and one custom preset). A temporary custom adjustment is possible. The maximum color space which can be displayed is the projector color space. This color space is measured at the factory and stored inside the projector.
