Advanced features
Displaying a user-defined image during startup or mut-
ing
You can display your desired image as the startup screen (or splash 
screen). Using the menu, you can also use it as the background that is 
displayed while the video is muted or no signal is input.
Important: You cant select IMAGE CAPTURE when PASSWORD FUNC-
TION in the FEATURE menu is set to SPLASH ID SCREEN to 
activate the password lock.
 You cant select IMAGE CAPTURE when the component video 
signal is input.
Procedure
1. Press the COMPUTER button to select the image input to the 
COMPUTER/COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminal.
2. Display your desired image.
3. Display the INSTALLATION menu.
4. Select IMAGE CAPTURE by pressing the S or T button.

 When the capture starts, the captured image will be dis-
played.
 When you press ENTER button once, any button doesnt 
function until the capture completes.
 When image resolution is lower than XGA(1024 x 768), the 
image is captured by adjusting its resolution to XGA.
 When image resolution is higher than XGA(1024 x 768), the 
image area of XGA is only captured.
Important: You cant change the new startup screen back to the original 
screen. (Even when you select RESET ALL in the FEATURE 
menu, the factory default screen is no longer effective.) When you 
want to change the startup screen again, capture another image.
 The captured images will be deleted at the same time as pressing 
the ENTER button. If you pressed ENTER button wrongly, try to 
capture the same images again.
 The captured image is displayed from the next startup. If the cap-
tured image isnt displayed, check to see if SPLASH SCREEN in 
the INSTALLATION menu is set to OFF. (See page 33.)
 To display the captured image while the video is muted, set AV 
MUTE MODE in the INSTALLATION menu to IMAGE. (See page 
33.)
 When BACK COLOR in the INSTALLATION menu is set to 
IMAGE, the captured image is displayed while no signal is input.
 Some images cant be captured correctly because of their signal 
type.

play a still image):
Press the FREEZE button on the remote control.
 The image freezes temporarily.
To resume the motion in the image:Press the FREEZE button on the remote control again.
Important: Do not keep displaying a still picture for an extended period of 
time, as the afterimages may linger on the screen.
Page-up and page-downYou can go up and down the pages of a presentation projected from a 
computer using the remote control. Switch the pages using the PAGE 
UP or DOWN button on the remote control.
ConnectionTo manipulate images projected from the computer using the remote 
control, connect the projector with the computer as shown below.
 When the projector is connected with the computer via the USB 
port, the Page up/down function works if the computer supports 
the USB connection as a standard feature. (In some cases, it may 
not work.)
 Page up/down function when connecting with the USB cable
