Switching input signal
The projector can be connected to multiple devices at the same time. However, it 
can only display one full screen at a time. 
Be sure the Quick Auto Search function in the SOURCE menu is On (which is the 
default of this projector) if you want the projector to automatically search for the 
signals.
You can also manually cycle through the 
available input signals.
1. Press SOURCE on the projector or remote 
control. A source selection bar displays. 
2. Press  /  until your desired signal is 
selected and press MODE/ENTER.
Once detected, the selected source 
information will display on the screen for 
seconds. If there is multiple equipment 
connected to the projector, repeat steps 1-
2 to search for another signal.
• The brightness level of the projected image will 
change accordingly when you switch between 
different input signals. Data (graphic) PC 
presentations using mostly static images are 
generally brighter than video using mostly 
moving images (movies).
• The input signal type affects the options available for the Preset Mode. See Selecting a 
picture mode on page 29 for details.
• The native display resolution of this projector is in a 4:3 aspect ratio. For best display 
picture results, you should select and use an input signal which outputs at this resolution. 
Any other resolutions will be scaled by the projector depending upon the aspect ratio 
setting, which may cause some image distortion or loss of picture clarity. See Selecting 
the aspect ratio on page 27 for details.

Adjusting the projected image
Adjusting the projection angle
The projector is equipped with 1 quick-release adjuster foot and 1 rear adjuster foot. 
These adjusters change the image height and projection angle. To adjust the 
projector:
1. Press the quick-release button and lift the 
front of the projector. Once the image is 
positioned where you want it, release the 
quick-release button to lock the foot in 
position.
2. Screw the rear adjuster foot to fine tune 
the horizontal angle.
To retract the foot, hold up the projector while 
pressing the quick-release button, then slowly 
lower the projector. Screw the rear adjuster 
foot in a reverse direction.
If the projector is not placed on a flat surface or the screen and the projector are not 
perpendicular to each other, the projected image becomes trapezoidal. To correct 
this situation, see Correcting keystone on page 26 for details.
• Do not look into the lens while the lamp is on. The strong light from the lamp may cause 
damage to your eyes.
• Be careful when you press the adjuster button as it is close to the exhaust vent where hot 
air comes from.
Auto-adjusting the image
In some cases, you may need to optimize the 
picture quality. To do this, press AUTO on the 
projector or remote control. Within 3 seconds, 
the built-in Intelligent Auto Adjustment 
function will re-adjust the values of Frequency 
and Clock to provide the best picture quality. 
The current source information will be 
displayed in the upper left corner of the 
screen for 3 seconds. 
• The screen will be blank while AUTO is functioning.
• This function is only available when PC signal (analog RGB) is selected.

Selecting the aspect ratio
The aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to the image height. Most analog 
TV and computers are in 4:3 ratio, which is the default for this projector, and digital 
TV and DVDs are usually in 16:9 ratio.
With the advent of digital signal processing, digital display devices like this projector 
can dynamically stretch and scale the image output to a different aspect than that of 
the image input signal. 
To change the projected image ratio (no matter what aspect the source is):
1. Press MENU/EXIT and then press  /  until the DISPLAY menu is 
highlighted.
2. Press
  to highlight Aspect Ratio. 
						

							Operation 283. Press  /  to select an aspect ratio to suit the format of the video signal and 
your display requirements.
About the aspect ratio
In the pictures below, the black portions are inactive areas and the white portions are active 
areas. OSD menus can be displayed on those unused black areas.
1.Auto: Scales an image proportionally to fit the 
projectors native resolution in its horizontal 
width. This is suitable for the incoming image 
which is neither in 4:3 nor 16:9 and you want to 
make most use of the screen without altering 
the images aspect ratio.
2.
Real: The image is projected as its original 
resolution, and resized to fit within the display 
area. For input signals with lower resolutions, 
the projected image will display smaller than if 
resized to full screen. You could adjust the 
zoom setting or move the projector towards the 
screen to increase the image size if necessary. 
You may also need to refocus the projector 
after making these adjustments.
3.4:3: Scales an image so that it is displayed in 
the center of the screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio. 
This is most suitable for 4:3 images like 
computer monitors, standard definition TV and 
4:3 aspect DVD movies, as it displays them 
without aspect alteration.
4.16:9: Scales an image so that it is displayed in 
the center of the screen with a 16:9 aspect 
ratio. This is most suitable for images which 
are already in a 16:9 aspect, like high definition 
TV, as it displays them without aspect 
alteration.

Using Wall Color
In the situation where you are projecting onto a colored surface such as a painted 
wall which may not be white, the Wall Color feature can help correct the projected 
picture’s color to prevent possible color difference between the source and 
projected pictures.
To use this function, go to the DISPLAY > Wall Color menu and press  /  to 
select a color which is the closest to the color of the projection surface. There are 
several precalibrated colors to choose from: Light Yellow, Pink, Light Green, 
Blue, and Blackboard.
Fine-tuning the image quality in user modes
According to the detected signal type, there are some user-definable functions 
available when User mode is selected. You can make adjustments to these 
functions based on your needs.
Adjusting Brightness
Highlight Brightness in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by pressing  /
 on the projector or remote control.
The higher the value, the brighter the image. 
Likewise, the lower the setting, the darker the 
image. Adjust this control so the black areas of the 
image appear just as black and that detail in the 
dark areas is visible.
Adjusting Contrast
Highlight Contrast in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by pressing  / 
on the projector or remote control.
The higher the value, the greater the contrast. Use
