    Operations
     Precautions
    Lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to  uctuate slightly.
    The DLP® chip is made using extremely advanced technology. There may be black spots 
    (pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. These 
    are intrinsic characteristics of the technology and are not malfunctions.
     Notes
    A lamp is consumable item. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and 
    the lamp could burn out.  This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The 
    lifetime of the lamp depends on conditions of use.)
    Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals 
    p.97, any resolutions not 
    supported by this projector (XGA) will be expanded or shrunk, which will affect image 
    quality slightly. To view high-quality images, set the computer’s external output to XGA.
    With some models of computer having LCD displays or the like, displaying images 
    simultaneously on the projector and the monitor’s display may prevent the images from 
    displaying properly. If this happens, turn off the computer’s LCD display. For information 
    on how to turn off the LCD display, see the computer’s owner’s manual.
    If no signal is being input from the connected equipment or signal input\
     is stopped while 
    projecting, the “ No signal” message will appear.
    If a signal not supported by the projector is input, the “ Unsupported signal” message 
    will appear.
    If an unavailable operation button is pressed, the 
     icon will appear with a beep sound 
    (if the beep sound is set to [ On]).
    Moving pictures played back on computers using DVD software may appear unnatural 
    when projected with this projector. However, it is not a malfunction of the projector.
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    Basic operations (Continued)Using handy features
    Using auto setting (For computer input only)
    This function automatically sets up the projector to the optimum state. It 
    sets up sampling phase, frequency and screen position, for each type 
    of the input signal by using simple operations.
      Press the remote control’s AUTO SET button.
    The  icon will appear during processing.
     Notes
    The image may not be projected or auto adjustment/setting may 
    not be performed correctly for input signals other than those 
    supported by the projector 
    p.97, p.98.
    If auto setting fails adjustment, adjust manually with the  Position adjustment 
    menu 
    p.37.
    Correcting the keystone distortion
    When the projector placement angle against the screen is changed while p\
    rojecting the 
    image, the picture will undergo keystone (trapezoidal) distortion.
    This projector is capable of correcting this keystone distortion.
    Before correction After correction
    The keystone distortion will be corrected automatically based on the projector’s 
    placement angle.
    Adjusting Keystone distortion [Manual]
    1  Press the KEYSTONE button.
    2 Use the   buttons for keystone 
    adjustment.
     Notes
    Depending on the amount of keystone adjustment 
    and the content of images, some information may 
    be lost, or the picture quality may suffer.
    Even if [ Auto keystone ] is set to [On], keystone distortion can be adjusted 
    manually. Note that if you change the position or angle of the projector, automatic 
    keystone correction will be performed again.
    When [ Auto keystone ] is set to [On], the automatic keystone correction will be 
    performed each time the power is turned on.
    The keystone correction settings are memorized after the power has been turned off. 
    Therefore, it is recommended that you set [ Auto keystone] to [Off], if the case is that 
    the projector placement angle against the screen remains unchanged and y\
    ou do not 
    wish to change the keystone adjustment that you set.
    Some adjustments using both digital zoom and keystone correction while displaying 
    an input image with a 16:9 aspect ratio, may affect displaying the menu properly. In 
    such a case, reset either digital zoom or keystone correction to use the menu.
