All measurements are approximate and may vary from the actual sizes.

We recommend that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should physically test the projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before you permanently install it, so as to make allowance for this projector's optical characteristics. This will help you determine the exact mounting position so that it best suits your installation location.

The projection range for lens shift

a a b b Caser

a: Maximum horizontal range (H × 23%)

b: Maximum vertical range (V × 60%)

Be sure to stop turning the Lens shift dial when you hear a clicking sound indicating that the knob has reached its limit. Over-turning the knob may cause damage.

You cannot move the image to both the horizontal and vertical maximum values.

Adjusting the projected image

Adjusting the projection angle

The projector is equipped with 4 adjuster feet. These adjusters change the image height and projection angle. To adjust the projector, screw the adjuster foot to fine tune the horizontal angle. To retract the foot, screw the rear adjuster foot in a reverse direction.

If the projector is not placed on a flat surface or the screen and the projector are not parallel to each other, the projected image becomes trapezoidal. To correct this situation, see "Correcting keystone" on page 30 for details.

Do not look into the lens while the light source is on. The strong light from the light source may cause damage to your eyes.

Auto-adjusting the image

In some cases, you may need to optimize the picture quality. To do this, press AUTO PC. Within 3 seconds, the built-in Intelligent Auto Adjustment function will re-adjust the values of Frequency and Clock to provide the best picture quality.

The current source information will be displayed in the corner of the screen for 3 seconds.

This function is only available when PC signal (Computer) is selected.

Fine-tuning the image size and clarity

1. Adjust the projected image to the size that you need using the zoom ring.

1. Sharpen the image by rotating the focus ring.

Diagram showing bird habitat transformation from a photo frame to a camera lens, with no visible text or symbols.

Allow a 30 min. warm up before focus adjustment, if possible. Immediately after startup, the heat of the light source may prevent stable focus. (Page 17)

Correcting keystone

Keystoning refers to the situation where the projected image becomes a trapezoid due to angled projection.

Use the keystone keys on the projector or remote control to display the keystone page. After the keystone page is displayed, press □ to correct keystoning at the top of the image. Press △ to correct keystoning at the bottom of the image.

Press ▽/▲. Press ▽.

- You can correct the vertical keystone. However, the adjustment ranges are limited in such correction.

- When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the adjustment value is indicated. Note that this value doesn't mean a projection angle.

- The allowable range of the adjustment value in the keystone adjustment varies depending on the installation conditions.

- Images may not be projected in a shape of a regular rectangle or with its aspect ratio 4:3, depending on the installation conditions of the projector and the screen.

- When the keystone adjustment takes effect, the resolution decreases. In addition, stripes may appear or straight lines may bend in images with complicated patterns. They are not due to product malfunctions.

- Noise may appear on the screen during the keystone adjustment because of the type of the video signal being projected and the setting values of the keystone adjustment. In such cases, set the keystone adjustment values in the range where the image is displayed without noise.

- When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the image may not be displayed correctly because of the type of input signal.

Connection

When connecting a signal source to the projector, be sure to:

- Turn all equipment off before making any connections.

- Use the correct signal cables for each source.

- Ensure the cables are firmly inserted.

- In the connections above, some cables may not be included with the projector (see "Shipping contents" on page 21). They are commercially available from electronics stores.

- The connection illustrations are for reference only. The rear connecting jacks available on the projector vary with each projector model.

- Many notebooks do not turn on their external video ports when connected to a projector. Usually a key combo like FN + function key with a monitor symbol turns the external display on/off. Press FN and the labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your notebook's documentation to find your notebook's key combination.

- If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct video source has been selected, check that the video source device is turned on and operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.

Connecting multiple sources through HDBaseT

HDBaseT is a connectivity standard that combines HD digital video, audio, Ethernet, and various control signals. These signals are transmitted with one CAT5e (or above) cable up to 100 meters in length. With the use of HDBaseT switching matrix (commercially available), you may connect multiple sources to your projector with HDBaseT connection.

When connecting the RJ45 cable, avoid coiling and intertwining the cable as it may cause signal noise or interruption.

The illustration below is for reference only, actual layout may vary.

When you select each color, you can independently adjust its range and saturation according to your preference.• Select Color: Selects a color from among Red, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, or Magenta.Hue: Increase in the range will include colors consisted of more proportions of its two adjacent colors. Please refer to the illustration for how the colors relate to each other.For example, if you select Red and set its range at 0, only pure red in the projected picture will be selected. Increasing its range will include red close to yellow and red close to magenta.Gain: Adjusts the values to your preference. The contrast level of the primary color you select will be affected. Every adjustment made will reflect to the image immediately.Saturation: Adjusts the values to your preference. Every adjustment made will reflect to the image immediately.Saturation is the amount of that color in a video picture. Lower settings produce less saturated colors; a setting of "0" removes that color from the image entirely. If the saturation is too high, that color will be overpowering and unrealistic.
