Audio Source Select This setting allows you to match a computer or video input to an audio input. The projector has four computer and three video inputs, but only four audio inputs. NOTE: Audio cables must be connected in order to hear sound from the projector. Select among audio sources 1, 2, and 3, and CableWizard. (The CableWizard computer input does not have a separate audio input. Audio is transmitted in the CableWizard computer input.) By default, the RGBHV and M1-DA sources are assigned to audio input 1, the VESA source to audio 2, the CableWizard source to CableWizard, and all video sources to audio 3. (Figure 4 on page 7 shows the labeled audio inputs on the connector panel.) To change these assignments, make the desired source active (for example, the VESA input), then select an audio source.
27 Image Menu FIGURE 20 Image menu NOTE: Some screen savers inter- fere with the operation of Auto Image. If you’re experiencing prob- lems, try turning your screen saver off, then turning Auto Image off and back on. Overscan This option crops all the edges of the image to remove noise gen- erated on the edges by your source. This option is available for video sources only. Image Position This setting allows you to re-position a 16x9 or native mode video image. Select among top, bottom, and center by highlight- ing Image Position in the menus and clicking either mouse but- ton to cycle through the options. Auto Image The projector automatically adjusts tracking, signal synchroniza- tion and vertical and horizontal position for most computers (Auto Image does not apply to video sources). If you want to adjust these features manually, you must turn off Auto Image first by highlighting Auto Image in the Image menu and clicking the left or right mouse button to select “off”. NOTE: When you connect an HDTV source, the projector auto- matically displays the image in 16x9 format. ResizeThis option works differently for computer and video sources. For computer sources, Resize automatically resizes the image by scaling it up or down. It only affects computer images that are not the projector ’s native resolution. When Resize is on, the projector makes the best fit of the image to the computer screen. If you turn Resize off (by highlighting it in the Image menu and clicking the left or right mouse button to select “off”), the image may be either cropped or too small for the screen.

28 Using the Projector For video sources, Resize allows you to select from among four different re-sizing options. The default is Standard, which resizes the image from its original version to fit a standard 4x3 aspect ratio screen. Widescreen Letterbox preserves the 16x9 aspect ratio of the original theater version, but the image is placed in a 4x3 space, so black bars appear at the top and bottom of the image. Enhanced Widescreen also preserves the aspect ratio of the origi- nal theater version and is designed to be used with content that is Enhanced for Widescreen TVs. This option yields more detail than Widescreen Letterbox. Native reduces the Standard size to match the height of Enhanced Widescreen. Manual Sync The projector adjusts signal synchronization automatically for most computers. But if the projected computer image looks fuzzy or streaked, try turning Auto Image off then back on again. If the image still looks bad, try adjusting the signal synchronization manually: NOTE: The Manual Sync, Manual Tracking, Horiz. Position and Ve r t . P o s i t i o n options are available only for computer sources. The projector sets these options automatically for video sources. 1Tu r n A u t o I m a g e o f f . 2Highlight Manual sync, then press the left or right mouse but- ton repeatedly until the image is sharp and free of streaks. Manual Tracking The projector adjusts tracking automatically to match the video signal from your computer. However, if the display shows evenly spaced, fuzzy, vertical lines or if the projected image is too wide or too narrow for the screen, try turning Auto Image off then back on again. If the image is still bad, try adjusting the tracking man- ually: 1Tu r n A u t o I m a g e o f f . 2Highlight Manual tracking, then press the left or right mouse button repeatedly until the fuzzy vertical bars are gone.
29 Horizontal position Follow these steps to manually adjust the horizontal position: 1Tu r n A u t o I m a g e o f f . 2Highlight Horizontal position, then press the left mouse but- ton to move the image right or press the right mouse button to move the image left. Positioning adjustments are saved when you power off the pro- jector. Ve r t i c a l p o s i t i o n Follow these steps to manually adjust the vertical position. 1Tu r n A u t o I m a g e o f f . 2Highlight Vertical position, then press the left mouse button to move the image down or press the right mouse button to move the image up.

This option allows you to digitally zoom a computer image. Highlight Zoom, then press either mouse button. A rectangle appears on the screen. Use the arrow buttons on the keypad or the disk mouse on the remote to move the rectangle to the area you want to zoom, then click the right mouse button (not the left mouse button). The image is zoomed. To zoom further, press the right mouse button, move the rectangle to the desired area, then press the right mouse button again. You can zoom three times. To return the image to normal view, press the left mouse button. The zoom rectangle appears. To cancel zoom, press the left mouse again or activate the menu.
30 Using the Projector Controls Menu FIGURE 21 Controls menu Video Standard NOTE: If you already know the video standard used in your geographical area, it’s often best to manually select it. When Video standard is set to Auto, the projector attempts to pick the video standard (NTSC, NTSC 4.43, PAL, PAL-M, PAL- N,PAL-60, or SECAM) automatically based on the input signal it receives. (The video standard options may vary depending on your region of the world.) The input signals for SECAM, PAL-M, PAL-N and PAL-60 video cannot be automatically detected, therefore they must be chosen manually. If the projector is unable to detect the correct standard, the colors might not look right or the image might appear “torn.” If this happens, manually select a standard by clicking the left or right mouse button and cycling through the standards. Standby Time This option lets you select how long the lamp stays on and the blank screen is displayed when the projector enters standby mode before the projector turns off. Select among instant, 1, 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes and 1 and 2 hours by clicking the left or right mouse button and cycling through the options.

Default Source Default Source toggles among Computer RGBHV, Computer VESA, Computer M1 Analog, Computer M1 Digital, Computer CableWizard and Component Video, Composite Video, and S-video. This determines which source the projector checks first for active video during power-up. Highlight Default Source and click the left or right mouse button to toggle among the options. Auto Source Select This setting toggles between On and Off. When this feature is Off, the projector defaults to the source selected in Default Source. To display another source, you must manually select one by press- ing the source button on the keypad or the computer or video but- ton on the remote. When this feature is On, the projector automatically finds the active source, checking the default source first. Highlight Auto Source Select and click the left or right mouse button to turn this feature on and off. Plug and Play This setting toggles between On and Off. When it is On, most new computers will automatically recognize the projector, then set the monitor resolution and refresh rate accordingly. You need to set the Plug and Play setting to Off for the projector to display properly on some older computers. The Plug and Play setting does not affect video images. If the projector ’s display constantly changes between the com- puter image and the message, “Perfecting the image”, you may need to turn Plug and Play Off.
