Operations

7After use, turn off the light, and fold up the document camera.

Fold up the camera using the opposite order from Preparation of the document camera.

PRECAUTION

If the room’s fluorescent lighting causes the image to flicker, either turn off the fluorescent light, or set the Shutter speed from the Auto setting menu p.29 . Note that changing the Shutter speed setting may not eliminate the flicker, depending on the lighting, state of the document, or image adjustment.

When arm light is used, document camera image of paper/object with reflective surface may have bright spots. In this case, turn off the arm light and have an adequate lighting from the room light.

Notes

The camera light automatically goes off when the camera arm is collapsed.

The camera will not output images when the camera arm is stowed.

No audio is output when camera input is selected.

The writing will not be displayed properly if using colors other than blue or red.

The writing may not be displayed properly if the pen is too fine.

Locking the white balance

Although the projector’s camera is constantly adjusting the color balance of the images it photographs, the color balance may be disrupted, depending on the color layout of the document, etc. If this happens, the white balance can be locked using the procedure below.

1 Lay down a piece of white paper, and adjust so it fills the screen.

Adjust the camera head and arm so that the white paper fills the screen completely.
