    Hiding the image
    In order to draw the audiences full attention to the 
    presenter, you can use BLANK on the projector or remote 
    control to hide the screen image. The word BLANK 
    appears in the corner of the screen while the image is 
    hidden. When this function is activated with an audio 
    input connected, the audio can still be heard. 
    You can set the blank time in the 
    SYSTEM SETUP: 
    Basic > Blank Timer menu to let the projector return 
    the image automatically after a period of time when there 
    is no action taken on the blank screen. The length of time 
    can be set from 5 to 30 minutes in 5-minute increments.
    If the preset time spans are not suitable for your 
    personation, select Disable. 
    No matter 
    Blank Timer is activated or disabled, you can 
    press any key except PAGE / and LASER on the 
    remote control to restore the picture.
    Freezing the image
    Press FREEZE on the remote control to freeze the 
    image. The word FREEZE will display in the upper left 
    corner of the screen. To release the function, press any 
    button on the projector or remote control.
    Even if an image is frozen on the screen, the pictures 
    are running on the video or other device. If the 
    connected devices have active audio output, you will 
    still hear the audio even though the image is frozen 
    onscreen.
    Once BLANK is pressed, the 
    projector lamp enters 
    Economic mode 
    automatically.
    Do not block the projection 
    lens from projecting as this 
    could cause the blocking 
    object to become heated and 
    deformed or even cause a 
    fire.

    							Operation 43
    Operating in a high altitude environment
    We recommend you use the High Altitude Mode when your environment is between 1500 m 
    –3000 m above sea level, and temperature is between 0°C–35°C.
    Do not use the High Altitude Mode if your altitude is between 0 m and 1500 m and temperature 
    is between 0°C and 35°C. The projector will be over cooled, if you turn the mode on under 
    such condition.
    To activate the High Altitude Mode, go to the SYSTEM 
    SETUP: Advanced > High Altitude Mode, select On 
    by pressing  /  on the projector or remote control. 
    A confirmation message displays. Highlight Ye s and 
    press Mode/enter on the projector or ENTER on the 
    remote control.
    Operation under 
    High Altitude Mode may cause a 
    higher decibel operating noise level because of 
    increased fan speed necessary to improve overall system cooling and performance.
    If you use this projector under other extreme conditions excluding the above, it may display 
    auto shut-down symptoms, which is designed to protect your projector from over-heating. 
    In cases like this, you should switch to High Altitude mode to solve these symptoms. 
    However, this is not to state that this projector can operate under any and all harsh or 
    extreme conditions.
    Creating your own startup screen
    In addition to selecting the projector preset startup screen from among BenQ logo, Black or 
    Blue screen, you can make your own startup screen that is a picture projected from your 
    computer or video source.
    To create your own startup screen, project the picture you want to use as your startup screen 
    from either a computer or video source. The rest steps are as follows.
    •Using the remote control
    1. Press CAPTURE on the remote control. 
    2. A confirmation message displays. Press CAPTURE 
    or ENTER again.
    3. The message Screen Capturing... displays while the 
    projector is processing the picture. Please wait.
    4. If the action is successful, you see the message 
    Captured Succeeded on the screen. The captured 
    picture is saved as My Screen.
    5. To view the captured picture displayed as the startup 
    screen, set My Screen in the SYSTEM SETUP: Basic 
    > Splash Screen menu and restart the projector.
    •Using the OSD menu
    1. Press MENU/EXIT and then press  /  until the SYSTEM SETUP: Basic menu is 
    highlighted.
    2. Press  to highlight My Screen and press Mode/enter.
    3. Repeat steps 2-5 in the “Using the remote control” section to capture and view the 
    captured picture.
    In the unlikely event that the capturing action fails, change your target picture.
    We recommend you use the High 
    Altitude Mode by selecting it 
    whenever your environment is 
    higher than 1500 m.
    Do you want to turn High Altitude 
    Mode on?
