50 Adjusting the Image Quality To change the status, press the [Wall Shot] button while the status is being displayed on the screen. For example, if you press the [Wall Shot] button while Wall Shot OFF is displayed, the status will change to Wall Shot ON and measurement of the projection surface will start. Colours in the order red → green → blue → black will be projected for approximately five seconds while measurement is in progress.Once the measurement is finished and colour correction is complete, the images will be projected in the corrected condition. To cancel the correction, press the [Wall Shot] button while Wall Shot ON is being displayed on the screen so that Wall Shot OFF is selected. 2 Wall Shot ON 3 TIP When the projectors power is turned off, images will be projected next time with the status set to Wall Shot OFF. However, the correction values that were obtained by the previous measurement operation will be stored even when the power is turned off. If projecting in the same location as before, you can retrieve the colour correction values that were used previously (the five seconds required for readjustment will not be necessary). The status will change as follows each time the [Wall Shot] button is pressed. When Wall Shot retrieval is selected, the previous adjustment values are retrieved. If you change the projection location or change the condition of the projection surface, you should repeat the Wall Shot measurements. If you press the [Wall Shot] button twice while Wall Shot ON is being displayed, Wall Shot Readjustment will be displayed and adjustment will then start.

51 Adjusting the Image QualityAdjusting Computer Images Automatic setup detects analogue RGB signals coming from a connected computer, and automatically adjusts these signals so that the optimum images can be obtained. Automatic setup involves adjustment of the following three items: Tracking , Position and Sync . Automatic Setup TIP If Auto Setup in the Advanced2 menu is set to OFF (the default setting for this command is ON), automatic setup is not carried out. If you press the [Auto] button on the remote control or the [Auto/Enter] button on the projectors control panel while computer images (analogue RGB signals) are being projected, adjustment will then be carried out. If you press the [Auto] button on the remote control or the [Auto/ Enter] button on the projectors control panel while the E-Zoom function or Freeze function is active, the active function will be cancelled and then the adjustment will be carried out. Sometimes the signals may not be adjusted correctly depending on the type of signals being output by the computer. In such cases, use the Tracking, Position and Sync. menu commands to make the adjustments manually. p.52, p.53, p.75 Automatic setup is not carried out while the preview function is being used.

52 Adjusting the Image Qualityl If vertical stripes appear in the projected images, and this cannot be fixed using automatic setup, you will need to adjust the tracking manually using the following procedure. PROCEDURETracking adjustment can be carried out using either the projectors control panel or the configuration menus. This procedure explains how to use the projectors control panel to adjust the tracking. For adjustment using the configuration menus: See Video - Tracking p.75 Press the following buttons to adjust the tracking value until the vertical stripes disappear from the projected images. While holding down the [Shift] button on the projectors control panel, press the [ ] button. The tracking value increases each time the button is pressed.While holding down the [Shift] button on the projectors control panel, press the [ ] button. The tracking value decreases each time the button is pressed. Adjusting the Tracking Projector Projector TIP The images will flash when continuous tracking adjustment is carried out, but this is normal.
53 Adjusting the Image Quality If flickering, fuzziness or interference appear in images that are input from the computer, and this cannot be fixed using automatic setup, you will need to adjust the sync manually using the following procedure. PROCEDURESync adjustment can be carried out using either the projectors control panel or the configuration menus. This procedure explains how to use the projectors control panel to adjust the sync. For adjustment using the configuration menus: See Video - Sync. p.75 Press the following buttons to adjust the sync value until the flickering, fuzziness or interference disappears from the projected images. While holding down the [Shift] button on the projectors control panel, press the [ ] button. The sync value increases each time the button is pressed.While holding down the [Shift] button on the projectors control panel, press the [ ] button. The sync value decreases each time the button is pressed. Adjusting the Sync Projector Projector TIP If you adjust the sync without adjusting the tracking first, it will not be possible to get the best adjustment results. Incorrect tracking adjustment may not be noticeable with some types of image. However, images with lots of lines and shading will tend to show incorrect tracking adjustments more clearly, so be sure to check the tracking adjustment first. It may also be possible to fix flickering and fuzziness by adjusting the brightness, contrast , sharpness and keystone correction settings.
54 Adjusting the Image QualitySelecting the Projection Quality (Colour Mode Selection) The following five preset colour modes are available for use depending on the characteristics of the images that are being projected. You can easily obtain the optimum image quality simply by selecting the colour mode that corresponds to the projected images. The brightness of the images will vary depending on which colour mode is selected. PROCEDURESelecting the colour mode can be carried out using either the remote control or the configuration menus. This procedure explains how to use the remote control to select the colour mode. For selecting using the configuration menus See Video - Color Mode p.76, p.79 The colour mode changes as follows each time the [Color Mode] button on the remote control is pressed. Dynamic → Presentation → Theatre → Living Room → sRGB ...The current setting is displayed on the screen each time the mode is changed.The default setting for the colour mode is as follows: When computer images are being input: Presentation When other types of images are being projected: Dynamic Mode Application Dynamic Images are modulated and made fresher to emphasise brightness. Presentation Brightness is emphasised. For presentations in bright rooms. Theatre Movie images are optimised using natural tints. Living Room Brightness is emphasised. Ideal for playing video games in bright rooms. sRGB Images conform to the sRGB colour standard. If the connected source has a sRGB mode, set both the projector and the connected signal source to sRGB. Remote control Presentation
55 Adjusting the VolumeYou can adjust the volume for the sound from the projectors built-in speaker or from the external speakers that are connected to the projector. PROCEDUREThe volume can be adjusted using either the remote control, the projectors control panel or the configuration menus.
