Correcting Trapezoidal 
Distortion
When the image is projected either from 
the top or from the bottom towards the 
screen at an angle, the image becomes 
distorted trapezoidally. The function for 
correcting trapezoidal distortion is called 
Keystone Correction.
The Keystone Correction can be adjusted up 
to an angle of approximately ±40 (XR-55X)/
±20 (XR-50S) degrees and the screen can 
also be set up to an angle of approximately 
±40 (XR-55X)/±20 (XR-50S) degrees.
