Project an image on the screen roughly at first. 1. Turn the Zoom ringand adjust to the desired size within the zoom range. WIDE: Enlarges (zooms in) the projected image. TELE: Reduces (zooms out) the projected image. 2. Turn the Focus ringuntil the image on the screen becomes clear.Zooming and Focusing MENU V-MUTE ENTER PATTERN STANDBY ON Turning on the Power You can strictly focus the image with focus pattern.1. Press the PATTERNbutton to project the focus pattern on the screen. 2. Turn the Focus ringto make an adjustment. Adjust the focus for the sharpest image possible to obtain, using focus pattern. 3. Press the PATTERNbutton again to hide the focus pattern. This completes fine focusing. Note :Changing the Focus Pattern Color According to Lens Position ( P.14) The focus pattern changes color depending on the lens position. There are two colors and they can be used for checking the quality of the projected image. The whitefocus pattern uses the highest optical performance to maximize the sharpness of the projected image. To enjoy the highest sharpness, it is recommended to position the lens within this range. When the lens is shifted outside the aforementioned range, the focus pattern turns green. Rough focusing in this range looses image sharpness. Adjusting the zoom position from WIDE to TELE enhances sharpness even at the same lens position. However, the focus pattern does not change when the zoom position is changed.

For the VP-12S4 the projector can be mounted 15% of the height of the screen(=0.15H)* above the top of the viewable portion. For extended mounting conditions, the lens can be shifted even farther (170% →200%). However if these values are used, optical performance may suffer slightly. This could manifest itself as chromatic aberration (minor color fringing) and/or geometric distortion. If the projector is used in the extended mounting conditions, the focus pattern will be displayed in Green. *the height of the screen=1H
