Projector FeaturesThe following six preset colour modes are provided so that you can easily 
obtain optimum images simply  by selecting a Colour mode.
In addition, if projecting onto blackboard s rather than projection screens in 
places such as schools, you can select  the Blackboard setting to allow 
images to be projected  in their natural tints.

The projector is compact B5 size (19.3 (D)  × 27.6 (W)  × 7 (H) cm) and 
lightweight (EMP-765/755 : approx.  1.8 kg, EMP-760/750 : approx. 1.7 kg). 
Easy to carry it with the included So ft carrying case which has a pocket to 
put cables and  other accessories.
Despite its compact size, the projector  can display images at high resolutions 
with a high degree of luminance, provid ing beautifully clear images even in 
bright environments. The brightness of the lamp can be set to one of two settings. 
Fine and clear images can be obtaine
d even in a bright room like a 
conference room and a classroom.
If projecting images in a dark room or  onto a small screen and the images are 
too bright, change the setting to Low.
The advantages of the Low setting are
 Reduction in power consumption of approximately 20%
 Reduction in operating noise of approximately 12%
 Approximately 1.5 times longer lamp life
s p.62
The vertical angle of the projector is de tected, so that any vertical keystone 
distortion in the projected images  can be automatically corrected. sp.41
Automatically detects images input fr om connected equipment. You can 
switch between the images with  just a single touch of a button. sp.37

Projector FeaturesUser’s Guide
The accessory remote control can be used to carry out operations such as 
pausing projection (Freeze function sp.51), zooming in on important parts 
of images (E-Zoom function sp.52) and pointing out important parts of 
images using a pointer icon (Pointer function sp.53).
In addition, the remote control can be used to move the pointer around on the 
computer screen during projection (Wireless Mouse Function sp.22). 
The direct power on function means you can turn the projector on simply by 
plugging the power cable into the electrical outlet. 
s
p.65
Also, with the instant-off function you can finish quickly by unplugging the 
power cable immediately after use. 
This function locks the buttons on the projectors control panel.
This function is useful at times such as during shows and exhibitions, or in 
places such as schools to limit the range of buttons that can be used. sp.54Password protection function allows you to limit the use of the projector. 
This means that the projector cannot be used if it is taken without 
authorisation, and thus serves as a theft-prevention feature. sp.31
