 Correcting Keystone Distortion
When the projector is not exactly perpendicular to the screen, keystone \
distortion occurs. To overcome it, you can use the
Keystone function , a digital technology that can adjust for keystone-type distortion, res\
ulting in a crisp, square image.
The following procedure explains how to use the [Keystone] screen from t\
he menu to correct trapezoidal distortions.
When the projector is placed diagonally to the screen,
When the projector is set up at an angle in relation to the screen, adju\
st the Horizontal option of the Keystone menu so
that the top and bottom of sides of the projected image are parallel.
1. Press the 3D REFORM button on the remote control or the projector
cabinet.
The Keystone screen will be displayed on the screen.
2. Press the SELECT  button to select [Vertical] and then use the
SELECT

age are parallel.
* Adjust the vertical keystone distortion.
3. Align the left (or right) side of the screen with the left (or right)\
 side of the projected image.
• Use the shorter side of the projected image as the base.
• In the right example, use the left side as the base.
4. Press the SELECT  button to select [Horizontal] and then use the
SELECT 
 or  so that the top and bottom sides of the projected
image are parallel.
