Calibrating BenQ W500 LCD FP

[Anonymous]

I couldn’t find much information regarding calibration of this particular model of FP from this site, ISFForum or AVSForum, nor could I find a Service Manual online to buy (or view).

Just a couple of questions if anyone is familiar with it.

It looks like as long as User 1, 2, or 3 is selected the GS can be calibrated from the User Menu (with the RGB gains/offsets). I don’t see a gamma adjustment.

As far as color management, it looks like it has an incomplete CMS (consisting of a ‘range’ (hue?) and saturation).

Is it necessary to access the SM to calibrate this FP and, if so, do the codes I’ve seen for other BenQ FPs (UDUDLR) work to access this projector’s SM?

Thank you!

Best,
Greg

Same generation as the W5000 and is the budget projector. Calibrate in user menu. The DLP had cca in sm and in ISF menu but this is not DLP so no CMS aside from the non working one.

same code as w5000 if you need 6 spaces
