Note: You can also use the projector’s Keystone function to help get optimum screen geometry. Adjust angle tilt optically by pressing the Optical Keystone Adjustment knob on the side of the projector (next to the handle), and then turning the dial clockwise or counterclockwise to move the lens up or down. Adjust angle tilt digitally by pressing the Keystone button on the control panel to increase or decrease the image adjustment. This feature allows you to correct up to a ± 20° tilt, maintaining an aspect ratio of 4:3. Using the ELP Link IV software, you can correct up to a ± 30° tilt.
Resizing the Projected Image
The Resize button lets you select the projection method for certain types of image signals input from a computer. Press the Resize button on the control panel or the remote control to select one of the following projection methods for your projector.
With images less than XGA (1024 × 768) for the PowerLite 8000i and less than SXGA (1280 × 1024) for the PowerLite 9000i, you can either display the image in the center of the projection area or display it full size.
With images greater than XGA size for the PowerLite 8000i and greater than SXGA size for the 9000i (up to 1600 × 1200 pixels), you can project the entire image in a compressed format. If you keep pressing the Resize button, the projector will pan around areas of the image in the original source resolution. When displaying the full screen, the projector automatically reduces the image size to the projector’s maximum resolution.
Note: The Resize button cannot be used with images at XGA
(1024 × 768) resolution on the PowerLite 8000i or with images at SXGA (1280 × 1024) resolution on the PowerLite 9000i.
