Sony VPL-VW50 Projector ImageDirector Utility 3.1

This software (ImageDirector version 3.1) allows you to use a computer connected to the projector to adjust the projectors gamma value to your preference and provides a feature that allows you to adjust the gamma value in more detail by selecting any point on the gamma curve.

Important Notes:

- If you already have a version of ImageDirector installed, it is necessary to quit the existing ImageDirector program and uninstall it before installing the latest software.
- Important: You cannot reset the projector's gamma value to the default settings without using ImageDirector. If you used ImageDirector to adjust the projector's gamma value and you want to reset the gamma value back to the default settings, please do so before you uninstall the current application.
- Additional information about the ImageDirector software is available within the application by selecting the "Help(H)" option on the menu.
- Do not operate the projector during communication with the computer. This may cause the gamma value stored in the projector to be corrupted.
- During the installation of this file, be sure that you are logged in as the Administrator or as a user with Administrative rights.
- To ensure that no other program interferes with the installation, save all work and close all other programs. The Taskbar should be clear of applications before proceeding.
- It is highly recommended that you print out these instructions for use as a reference during the installation process.

About Projector Packages:

Install this firmware package and projectors can benefit from higher image quality, improved performance and stability, various fixed issues encountered throughout the unit's lifetime, as well as several other changes.

Still, if you wish to apply this release, it would be best if you first read and understand the installations procedure; also, perform this task using a fully-charged battery or in a steady power environment (such as the one ensured by a UPS unit), and only after you have familiarized yourself with the update steps.

Bear in mind that, while the firmware is upgrading, it isn't recommended to use the projector's buttons, or interrupt the process in any way; doing so can cause serious malfunctions to the device and might even render it unusable.

That being said, if you intend to update to this release, click the download button, get the package and update the firmware version. If not, check back with our website as often as possible so that you don't miss the update that will boost the performance of your projector.
