Basic Flow Set up the projector and point it at the screen. User's Guide (Basic Operations): Setting Up the Projector Connect the computer or video device to the projector. User's Guide (Basic Operations): Connecting a Computer to the Projector User's Guide (Basic Operations): Connecting to a Standard Video Device Preparing the Projector Starting Projection Turn on the projector and the connected computer or video device. ] (power) key to turn on the projector. Press the [ User's Guide (Basic Operations): Turning On the Projector Perform fine adjustment of the projection position and angle. User's Guide (Basic Operations): Adjusting the Projector Elevation Angle Select the input source. "Manually Selecting the Input Source" (page 6) Adjust the projected image size and focus the image. "Zoom and Focus" (page 7) Start projection (presentation, video, etc.). · Perform the required operation on the input source computer or video equipment. · Use the projector's various functions to adjust the projected image as required. 4 Projection Operations Auto Input Source Selection When you turn on the projector, it checks the status of each input source (whether or not the input source is sending a signal) in the sequence shown below. It automatically selects the first input source it finds that is sending an input signal, and projects the applicable image. RGB terminal input (RGB/Component) VIDEO terminal input (VIDEO) S-VIDEO terminal input (S-VIDEO) If the RGB input terminal is connected to a computer and the S-VIDEO input terminal is connected to a video deck and signals are being supplied by both, for example, the projector automatically selects RGB input when it is turned on. The currently selected input source name is shown in the upper right corner of the projection screen. If the projector does not find any input signal, the message "No signal input" appears in place of the input source name. The input source that corresponds to input to the RGB input terminal is displayed in accordance with the "Detailed Settings Advanced Settings 2 RGB Input" (page 44) as shown below. "RGB" is displayed when the input signal to the RGB input terminal is RGB, "Component" is displayed in the case of a component signal. When the setting is "RGB": "RGB" is displayed. When the setting is "Component": "Component" is displayed. Note that the projector does not select the input source automatically when "Off" is selected for the "Detailed Settings Advanced Settings 1 Auto Input Detect" (page 40) on the setup menu. When the setting is "Auto": 5 Projection Operations Manually Selecting the Input Source The procedure you should use to select the input source depends on whether you are using projector keys or remote controller keys. [S-VIDEO] key [VIDEO] key [RGB/COMPONENT] key [Projector] [INPUT] key [Remote Controller] To select the input source using projector keys, press the [INPUT] key on the projector to cycle through input sources in the sequence shown below. (RGB/Component) (VIDEO) (S-VIDEO) To select the input source using remote controller keys, press the [RGB/COMPONENT], [VIDEO], or [S-VIDEO] key on the remote controller to select the input source you want. The currently selected input source name is shown in the upper right corner of the projection screen. If the currently selected input source is not sending an input signal, the message "No signal input" appears in place of the input source name. The input source name when RGB/Component is selected as the input source is displayed as "RGB" or "Component" in accordance with the "Detailed Settings Advanced Settings 2 RGB Input" on the setup menu (page 44). For more information, see the note under "Auto Input Source Selection" (page 5). 6 Projection Operations Zoom and Focus Use the zoom ring to adjust the image size, and the focus ring to focus the image. Zoom ring Smaller Larger Focus ring It is best to have a still image on the screen when you focus the image. Performing zoom after focusing can cause the image to go out of focus. If this happens, focus again. Auto Adjustment of an RGB Image When the input source is RGB (computer), the projector automatically adjusts vertical and horizontal positioning, frequency, and phase whenever it detects an RGB signal (following input source selection, power up, etc.). You can also execute an automatic adjustment operation by pressing the [AUTO] key. You can turn off auto adjustment (page 41) when you want to disable auto adjustment and maintain manual settings. The projected image may become distorted while an auto adjustment operation is in progress. If an image is unclear following the auto adjustment operation, you can use the menu to adjust items manually. For details, see "Signal Settings" on page 30. 7 Projection Operations Keystone Correction (KEYSTONE) When the projector is at an angle to the screen it is projecting on, the projected image may have different length top and bottom edges. This phenomenon is called, "keystoning". This projector comes with functions for automatic as well as manual keystone correction, which provides a regularly shaped projected image. The following shows the allowable angle that the projector can be positioned relative to the screen. Screen Up to about 20 degrees Up to about 20 degrees The angles shown in the above illustration are subject to the following conditions. Projection of an image from a computer (Resolution: 1024 × 768; Vertical Frequency: 60Hz) Resize Image To Fit: On Actual correction ranges are affected by the type of signal being projected, zoom, the "Resize Image To Fit" setting, the aspect ratio setting, and other factors. Keystone correction can cause the corrected image to be smaller than the original (uncorrected) image, or it can cause distortion of the image. If the projected image becomes difficult to view, try moving the screen and/or projector so they are oriented close to the configuration shown under "Setting Up the Projector" in the "User's Guide (Basic Operations)". The projector does not support horizontal keystone correction. The center of the projector's lens should be aligned with the horizontal center of the screen (see "Setting Up the Projector" in the "User's Guide (Basic Operations)"). 8 Projection Operations Automatic Keystone Correction Automatic keystone correction correct the image to counteract the effects of vertical keystoning. Performing auto keystone correction causes the message "Auto Keystone Corrected." to appear in the bottom center of the projected image. Auto keystone correction is performed by detecting the elevation angle of the projector. This means that the surface you are projecting onto needs to be standing straight up. If the surface you are projecting onto is not straight, use manual keystone correction to correct the image. You can turn auto keystone correction on or off as required. For details, see "Detailed Settings Advanced Settings 1 Auto Keystone Correction" on page 40. 9 Projection Operations Manual Keystone Correction Manual keystone correction can be used to correct for vertical keystoning. To use manual keystone correction 1. Press the [KEYSTONE] key. This causes the keystone correction screen to appear on the projected image. 2. Use the [ ] and [ ] keys to correct for keystoning. Each press of [ ] or [ ] shifts the indicator on the currently selected bar left or right. Keystone correction is possible within the range that the indicator is able to move within the selected bar. Depending on conditions, the indicator may not move all the way to either end of the bar. 3. To close the setup screen, move the cursor to "Close", and then press the [ENTER] key. You can also close the setup screen by pressing the [ESC] or [KEYSTONE] key. 10 Projection Operations Using Color Mode (COLOR MODE) The color mode setting lets you specify the type of image you will be projecting, so the projector can optimize image color. To change the color mode setting 1. Press the [COLOR MODE] key. mark This causes the color mode screen to appear on the projection image. The indicates the current color mode setting.
