Correcting the keystone distortion

When the foot adjuster p.24 is used to change the projector placement angle while projecting the image, the picture will undergo keystone (trapezoidal) distortion.

Readjusting the projection size with the zooming lever after focusing will cause the projected image to be out of focus. In that case, perform focusing again.

This projector is capable of correcting this keystone distortion.

7Adjusting the volume with the buttons

The speaker volume can be adjusted when an audio signal is being input.

Notes

Note that a lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to fluctuate slightly.

A lamp is consumable item. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on conditions of use.)

The DMDTM is made using extremely advanced technology, but there may be black spots (pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. Please note that these are not malfunctions.

Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals p.39 , any resolutions not supported by this projector (XGA) will be expanded or shrunk, which will affect image quality slightly. To view high-quality images, it is recommended that the computer’s external output should be set to XGA resolution.

With some models of computer having LCD displays or the like, displaying images simultaneously on the projector and the monitor’s display may prevent the images from displaying properly. If this happens, turn off the computer’s LCD display. For information on how to turn off the LCD display, see the owner’s manual of your computer.

If a signal not supported by the projector is input, the “Unsupported signal” will appear.

If no signal is being input from the connected device, the “No signal” will appear.

If an unavailable operation button is pressed, the icon will appear.

1Press the SET UP button.

2Press the button.

The keystone distortion is automatically corrected. The icon appears during this correction.

Manual adjustment

Press the SET UP button to display the Set up menu and select [Keystone]. Use

the buttons for keystone adjustment. When the adjustment is finished, press the RETURN button. The menu disappears.

Notes

Depending on the amount of keystone adjustment and the content of images, some information may be lost, or the picture quality may suffer.

Keystone adjustment is available for the keystone distortion in a slant angle of ±15 degrees.

Keystone adjustment will not change the shape of the menus, the start-up screen, and the background (with no signal input).
