Overview
DCC is the software that is pre-installed in the touch panel. By using DCC, you can operate NC
Series projectors and MM2000/MM2000B(*).
The PC version DCC that can be operated in the same way as DCC without a touch panel is also
available. By installing PC version DCC in the personal computer that is connected to a projector
in the LAN connection, DCC can be operated from the personal computer also.
(*) By using PC version DCC, you can operate MM2000/MM2000B. MM2000/MM2000B cannot
be connected from the touch panel DCC
This software can be used with the personal computer that fills the following environments.
Supported OS Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server, Windows 2000 Professional
Supported hardware IBM PC/AT compatible personal computers
CPU Pentium 300 MHz or higher required
Memory 128 MB or more
Network TCP/IP-compatible LAN environment required

1. Overview of Software
The installation/version upgrading procedures differ between the touch panel DCC and the PC
version DCC.
DCC is pre-installed in the touch panel. This section describes the DCC version upgrading
procedure.
[1] Save the EXE file of the touch panel version DCC that was formally
released in the USB memory.
[2] Set the USB memory in the touch panel after activating the DCC.
[4] Press the “ ” button on the top-right corner of the START screen.
[5] Terminate the DCC by pressing the “Yes” or “No” button in the Save
Execute Log dialog.
[6] Click (tap) the [My Computer] icon on the desktop screen.
[7] Open the “USBDisk” directory and copy the EXE file that was saved in
procedure [1].
[8] Paste the EXE file that was copied in the directory displayed by selecting
“Disk”-“AppData”.

1. Overview of Software
This section describes the installation procedure of PC version DCC. Use the same procedure as
for installation for version upgrading (installation by overwriting).
Preparatory operation:
- Boot up your PC's Windows.
- If you have already started Windows, quit all running application programs.
If you do not quit all running programs before installing the DCC Software, you risk having
unsuccessful installation.
You must have "Administrators" privileges to install and uninstall the PC Control Software in
Windows 2000, and "Computer Administrators" privileges to do the same in Windows XP.
[1] Save the EXE file of the PC version DCC that was released formally in
the local drive of the personal computer.
- For Windows XP
[Start] -> [Control Panel] -> [Add or Delete Program]
- For Windows 2000
[Start] -> [Control Panel] -> [Add or Delete Applications]

1. Overview of Software
The activation method and termination method differ between the touch panel DCC and the PC
version DCC.
- Activation and termination of the touch panel DCC :See 1-3-1 section (this page).
- Activation and termination of the PC version DCC :See 1-3-2 section (next page).
The touch panel power works together with the projector. When you turn on the main power to
your projector, it enters standby mode and the software automatically starts. Turning off the
main power to the projector causes the software to automatically exit.

2. Setting Up Your Projector
This corrects the chromaticity of the colors of the image projected on the screen by means of a
color meter and performs the setting of target colors (TCGD) during test pattern projections.
You can also project an image in target colors (TCGD file) with red, green, blue and white colors
selected.
The projector measures the value of each native color (color before corrections) and saves it in
a file (MCGD) to allow the user to faithfully reproduce the specified color (i.e., target color or
TCGD).
Initial Preparation
- Use a colorimeter to make preparations so that the value of the screen center can be
measured.
- Display the “Cross Hatch” test pattern to adjust the screen center.
- Set the brightness of the room to projection conditions (i.e., turn off all illumination).
- Use of a PR-650 manufactured by PHOTO RESEARCH is recommended in measurement of the
chromaticity level.
- Adjust the alignment of the valve prior to measuring the MCGD.
- Wait at least 15 minutes for the projector to warm up and the brightness becomes constant
before adjusting alignments.
To perform advanced adjustments, you need to select the Installation (or Service) mode.
Color adjustment is not available in the User mode.

By pressing the "Red", "Green", "Blue", and "White" buttons in the “MCGD Setup”, you can
project an image in colors, respectively.
To select a target color (TCGD file), press the “SELECT” button in the “TCGD Setup”.
You can also select a native color of the projector with the “Native” button.

2. Setting Up Your Projector
You can register adjusted lens settings (lens memory function) or adjusted brightness of the
lamp (lamp memory function). Assign registered settings to titles to call them up later. For
information on the lens and lamp memory functions, refer to the NC-TP6402/NC-TP6401 Touch
Panel Controller User's Guide.
The projector zoom, focus and projected screen (lens shift) are adjusted with the “LENS” screen
for information on how to adjust them, refer to the NC-TP6402/NC-TP6401 Touch Panel
Controller User's Manual.
When the projector main unit is used in the NC1600 Series, the following functions cannot be used.
- Copy of the Lens Memory function ([Copy] button on the Lens Memory screen)
- Paste of the Lens Memory function ([Paste] button on the Lens Memory screen)
- With Focus of the Lens Memory function (With Focus check box of the Lens Memory Setup field
of the Lens Memory screen)

2. Setting Up Your Projector
The brightness of the lamp is adjusted using the LAMP screen. For information on how to adjust
it, refer to the NC-TP6402/NC-TP6401 Touch Panel Controller User's Guide.
Setting FeedBack to “Enable” allows the set brightness to be maintained automatically.
In the case of movies, adjust the brightness of your DLP Cinema Projector to approximately 12
or 14 (ftl).
The set value will be invalidated after replacement of the lamp, therefore, you must set lamp
brightness once again.
If you set 100% of the lamp output, automatic brightness adjustment (FeedBack mode) will be
disabled.

2. Setting Up Your Projector
The data listed below have been cataloged in your projector before shipping from our factory.
When projecting an image source covered by these data, you do not need to change the
settings of your projector. When projecting an image source other than those mentioned above
(data listed below), follow the procedures given in Section, “2-4-4. Creating New Titles” (Page.
