Optimizing video images

After your video device is connected properly and the image is on the screen, you can optimize the image using the onscreen menus. For general information on using the menus, see page 26.

•Adjust the Keystone, Contrast, Brightness, Color, Tint or Sharpness in the Basic Picture menu (page 27).

•Change the Aspect Ratio. Choose the option that best fits your input source (page 27).

•Adjust the Color Temperature. Select a listed warmth value (page 28).

•Turn on Overscan to remove noise on the edges of the image (page 28).

Customizing the projector

You can customize the projector for your specific setup and needs. See page 29 to page 30 for details on these features.

•For rear projection, turn Rear Project on in the Setup menu.

•For ceiling mounted projection, turn Ceiling Mount on in the Setup menu.

•Specify which source the projector checks first for active video during power-up.

•Specify the function of the Custom key on the remote.

•Turn the projector’s display messages on and off.

•Turn on power saving features.

•Specify appearance of blank screen and startup screen.

•Specify the language viewed on the menus.

Dynamic Messaging

Using command codes, text messages can be sent for display by the projector (and all other InFocus projectors with the Dynamic Messaging feature) over a network or serial connection. Text is shown on top of whatever else is being displayed, and can be shown in ticker tape format or in a box, with optional beep tone alert. This is a great way to display urgent alert messages to employees, and simply requires a connection to the projector’s RS-232 serial control or LAN connector. Command codes for executing Dynamic Messaging are available on our website at www.infocus.com/support.
