Note: You can also connect a 3.5-mm mini jack cable to the Trigger Out port. This outputs a 12-volt DC signal to raise or lower the projection screen automatically. To use Cinema Color Editor, you have to connect your computer to the projector’s USB port (a USB cable is included). But be sure to install your software first (see your User’s Guide for instructions). Compatible Video Formats The projector supports NTSC, PAL, and SECAM, as well as the digital video and computer monitor formats listed below. If you’re projecting from a computer, set the computer’s video card at a refresh rate (vertical frequency) that’s compatible with one of the following monitor formats. The frequencies of some computers may not allow images to display correctly. Resizing the Image Composite and S-video signals are sized automatically to fit on the screen when Auto is selected as the Aspect setting. For other video signals, you may need to resize the image by pressing the Aspect button. Choose from these settings: ❏ Normal for standard TV broadcasts, computer images, or images having a 4:3 aspect ratio. ❏ Zoom for images recorded in 16:9 (wide-screen) format. ❏ Squeeze for recordings made in a compressed (anamorphic) 16:9 format, sometimes called “Squeeze Mode.” ❏ Through if your image is smaller than 1280 × 720 pixels and you want to display it at its original pixel size without resizing it to fit on the screen. ❏ Squeeze Through if your image is recorded in Squeeze Mode, is smaller than 1280×720 pixels, and you want to display it at its original pixel size.

Epson PowerLite Cinema 200 Projector 4 - Epson PowerLite Cinema 200 Projector 1/04 Positioning the Projector You can install the projector for these viewing setups: When projecting from a rear or overhead position, orient the image by selecting the correct Projection option (see page 5). Image Size and Projection Distance The maximum size of the image is determined by the distance from the projector’s lens to the screen. Depending on how you use the Zoom and other settings, the actual size may be smaller. Projecting a Square Image For best image quality, place the projector level and at a height so its lens is between the top and bottom of the screen. Then use the vertical lens shift knob to position the image. If you place the projector above or below screen level, you’ll have to tilt it up or down to aim the image at the screen; this distorts (or “keystones”) the shape of the image, but you can correct it using the projector’s Keystone function (see page 6). If you place the projector off to the side, aim it straight ahead (rather than at the center of the screen), then use the horizontal lens shift knob to center the image. Do not place the projector farther to the left or right than the edge of the screen, or you will not be able to project a square (or rectangular) image. Tip: To display a test pattern to help you center the image on the screen, press the Pattern button on the remote control, then select Cross-hatching. You can use the feet to correct a tilted image. Turning the Projector On and Off 1. Connect the power cord to the projector and a grounded electrical outlet. 2. Press the On button on the remote control, or press the P Power button on the projector. The projector takes about 30 seconds to warm up. If you don’t see an image, you may need to select its source (see page 5).[] Turning Off the Projector To turn off the projector, press the Off button on the remote control (or press the projector’s P Power button twice). Let it cool about 30 seconds while the Ppower light flashes. Once the light stops flashing and stays on, you can unplug the projector. Caution: Turn the projector off when not in use. Continuous 24- hour-a-day use may reduce its overall life. Never unplug the projector without pressing the Off button and letting it cool, or you could damage it and reduce lamp life.

Epson PowerLite Cinema 200 Projector 6 - Epson PowerLite Cinema 200 Projector 1/04 Performing Keystone Correction If the projected image looks like or , use the Keystone function to correct its shape. Note: If the image is shaped like or , the projector has been placed off to the side of the screen and angled toward it. Face the projector straight ahead (instead of at the center of the screen), then use the horizontal lens shift knob to center the image. To perform keystone correction: 1. Press the Menu button on the remote control. 2. Use the menu navigation buttons to open the Setting menu, then open the Screen menu and select Keystone. 3. Use the arrow buttons to adjust the shape of the image. 4. Press the Menu button when done. Choosing the Aspect Ratio If the image doesn’t fit on the screen the way you like, you can change the aspect ratio by pressing the Aspect button on the remote control. See “Resizing the Image” on page 2 for details. Choosing the Color Mode You can change the Color Mode to adjust the brightness, contrast, and color, letting you quickly optimize the image for various lighting environments. 1. Select the image source you want to adjust (a different Color Mode can be saved with each image source). 2. Press the Color Mode button on the remote control. Then choose from these settings: ❏ Dynamic for projecting in bright rooms; images retain their natural color. ❏ Living Room for projecting in rooms with subdued lighting; images retain their natural color. ❏ Natural for projecting in darkened rooms; increases contrast and makes flesh tones appear more natural. ❏ Theatre for projecting movies with dark scenes. ❏ sRGB for projecting computer images that conform to the sRGB color standard. Note: You can fine-tune the color and other image quality settings using the projector’s menu system or the Cinema Color Editor software. See the User’s Guide for details. Projector Status Lights If your projector isn’t working correctly, first turn it off, wait for the Power light to turn a steady orange, and unplug it.
