NOTE:

BIf using this projector in places such as cafes or hotels to display programs for a commercial purpose or for public presentation, note that if the aspect ratio (16:9) selection function is used to change the aspect ratio of the screen picture, you may be infringing the rights of the original copyright owner for that program under copyright protection laws.

BIf a 4:3 picture is projected onto a 16:9 screen, distortion may occur around the edges of the picture so that part of the picture is no longer visible. Programs which have 4:3 aspect ratios should be viewed in 4:3 mode to give proper consideration to the aims and intentions of the original program’s creator.

RESIZING

This should normally be set to “ON”. (This setting is only for signals which have lower resolutions than the LCD panels. Refer to page 62 for details.)

ON

The pixel resolution of the input signal is converted to the same resolution as the LCD panels before being projected.

This may sometimes cause problems with the quality of the picture.

OFF

The input signal is projected at its original resolution, with no pixel conversion. The projected picture will be smaller than normal, so adjust the zoom setting or move the projector forwards or backwards to adjust the picture size if necessary. If set to “OFF”, some features, such as “D.ZOOM” (digital zoom), “KEYSTONE” or “INDEX WINDOW” will not function.

FRAME LOCK

If the picture’s condition is bad while a RGB moving picture is projected, set “FRAME LOCK” to “ON”. Refer to page 62 for compatible RGB signals.
