at the video device or computer). The range of optimum operation is up to 
30 feet (9.14m).
Press the remote’s Menu button to open the projector ’s menu system. Use 
the arrow buttons to navigate, and the Select button to select features and 
adjust values in the menus. See page 23 for more info on the menus.

page 28 to page 31 for details on these features.
 For rear projection, turn Rear mode on in the Settings>System menu.
 For ceiling mounted projection, turn Ceiling mode on in the Set-
tings>System menu.

you can optimize the image using the onscreen menus. For general informa-
tion on using the menus, see page 23.
 Adjust the Keystone, Contrast, Brightness, Color, or Tint in the Picture

 Change the Aspect ratio. Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to 
image height. TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV 
and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9. Choose the option that best fits your 
input source. See page 24.
 Select a Sharpness setting. See page 27.

Using the menusTo open the menus, press the Menu button on the keypad or remote. (The 
menus automatically close after 60 seconds if no buttons are pressed.) The 
Main menu appears. Use the arrow buttons to move up and down to high-
light the desired submenu, then press the Select button. 
To change a menu setting, highlight it, press Select, then use the up and 
down arrow buttons to adjust the value, select an option using radio but-
tons, or turn the feature on or off using check boxes. Press Select to confirm 
your changes. Use the arrows to navigate to another setting. When your 
adjustments are complete, navigate to Exit, then press Select to go to the 
previous menu; press the Menu button at any time to close the menus. 
Dots appear before the menu name. The number of dots indicate the menu’s 
level, ranging from one (the Main menu) to four (the most nested menus). 
The menus are grouped by usage:
 The Picture menu provides image adjustments.
 The Settings menu provides set-up type adjustments that are not 
changed often.
 The About menu provides a read-only display of information about the 
projector and source. 
Certain menu items may be grayed out until a particular source is con-
nected. For example, Sharpness is only available for video sources and will 
be hidden when a computer source is active. Other menu items may be 
grayed out when they are not available. For example, Brightness is grayed 
out until an image is active.

Picture menuTo adjust the following six settings, highlight the setting, press Select, use 
the up and down arrows to adjust the values, then press select to confirm 
the changes.
Ve r t i c a l  K e y s t o n e: adjusts the image vertically and makes a squarer image. 
You can also adjust vertical keystone from the keypad. If you want the pro-
jector to automatically adjust the vertical keystone, check the Auto Vertical 
check box.
Horizontal Keystone: adjusts the image horizontally and makes a squarer 
image. 
Contrast: controls the degree of difference between the lightest and darkest 
parts of the picture and changes the amount of black and white in the 
image.
Brightness: changes the intensity of the image.
Color: (video and component sources only) adjusts a video image from 
black and white to fully saturated color.
Tint: (NTSC video sources only) adjusts the red-green color balance in the 
image.
Aspect Ratio: Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. 
TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are 
1.78:1, or 16:9. The default is16:9.
Native: this mode bypasses the internal scaler, displaying the image with no 
resizing. Since the native resolution is 1280x720 and 4x3 video images are 
approximately 640x480, 4x3 images will always be smaller than the display 
and will be centered in the display. Computer images 1024x768 or smaller 
will also be centered in the display. If a 16x9 video source or a 1280x1024 or 
larger computer source is viewed, it will display up to 1280 pixels and 720 
lines from the center of the input.

16:9: the default is 16:9, which preserves the 16:9 aspect ratio and is 
designed to be used with content that is Enhanced for Widescreen TVs. 
4:3: resizes the image from its original version to fit a standard 4:3 
aspect ratio screen. If you have a 4:3 source on a 16:9 screen, the image 
is placed in a 16:9 space, so black bars appear at the sides of the image.
Letterbox text: preserves the 16:9 aspect ratio and maximizes readabil-
ity of the text.
Letterbox: preserves the 16:9 aspect ratio. If you have a 16:9 source and 
screen, the image fills the screen. If your source is letterboxed, the 
image is expanded to fill the screen.
Natural Wide: this mode stretches a 4:3 image to fill the entire 16:9 
screen. The center two-thirds of the image is unchanged; the edges of 
the image are stretched.

Presets: You can customize the settings for each source and save them as a 
preset. There are three user-definable presets. To set a preset for the current 
source, adjust the image, then choose Save User 1, 2, or 3. You can recall 
these settings in the future by selecting the appropriate user presets. 
Gamma: Gamma tables contain preset intensity configurations optimized 
for the input source. You can select a gamma table that has been specifically 
tuned for either film, presentation, or photography. 
NOTE: Your viewing preferences may vary. Cycle through the gamma 
options and pick the one you like the best.
Overscan: (video sources only) removes noise around the video image.

Sharpness: (video sources only) changes the clarity of the edges of a video 
image. Select a sharpness setting.
Color Space: This option applies to computer sources. It allows you to 
select a color space that has been specifically tuned for the video input.

To choose a different setting, turn off Auto, then choose RGB for computer 
sources, choose either SMPTE240, REC709 or REC601 for component 
sources.
Color Temperature: changes the relative warmth of the colors. 
Color Control: allows you to individually adjust the gain (intensity of the 
color), the offset (the amount of black in the color), and the gamma of the 
red, green, and blue colors. 
The following 4 options are for computer and component sources only. 
Phase: adjusts the horizontal phase of a computer source.
Tr a c k i n g: adjusts the vertical scan of a computer source.

Settings menuAudio: allows adjustments to the volume and mute, and turns the projec-
tor ’s startup Chime on and off.
Sources
: allows you to assign a particular input to a specific source key on 
the remote. Also allows selection of a default Startup Source and enables or 
disables Autosource and RGB Video. 
Sources>Startup Source: this determines which source the projector 
checks first for active video during power-up. 
Sources>Autosource: When Autosource is not checked, the projector 
defaults to the source selected in Startup Source. If no source is found, a 
blank screen displays. When Autosource is checked, Startup Source deter-
mines which source the projector defaults to at power-up. If no signal is 
present, the projector checks the sources in order until a source is found or 
until power down. 
Sources>RGB Video: check this box if you are using a DVD player with 
RGB output.
System>Rear: reverses the image so you can project from behind a translu-
cent screen.
Ceiling: turns the image upside down for ceiling-mounted projection.
Auto Ceiling: automatically senses when the projector is inverted and turns 
the image upside down. This is On by default.
Auto Power: When Auto Power is checked, the projector automatically 
goes into the startup state after the projector is powered on. This allows con-
trol of ceiling mounted projectors with a wall power switch.
Display Messages: displays status messages (such as “Searching” or 
“Mute”) in the lower-left corner of the screen.
Pow e r  S av e: automatically turns the lamp off after no signals are detected 
for 5 minutes. After 3 additional minutes with no signal, the projector pow-
ers down. If an active signal is received before the projector powers down, 
the image will be displayed. 
Screen Trigger: turns on the 12 volt DC output switch on the connector 
panel.
Backlight: allows you to turn off the backlighting on the keypad.
