Operating in a high altitude environment
We recommend you use the High Altitude Mode when your environment is between 1500 
m–3000 m above sea level, and temperature is between 0°C–35°C.
CAUTION
Do not use the High Altitude Mode if your altitude is between 0 m and 1500 m and temperature 
is between 0°C and 35°C. The projector will be over cooled, if you turn the mode on under 
such a condition.

Operation under "High Altitude Mode" may cause a higher decibel operating noise level 
because of increased fan speed necessary to improve overall system cooling and 
performance.
If you use this projector under other extreme conditions excluding the above, it may display 
auto shut-down symptoms, which is designed to protect your projector from over-heating. 
In cases like this, you should switch to High Altitude Mode to solve these symptoms. 
However, this is not to state that this projector can operate under any and all harsh or 
extreme conditions.
Creating your own startup screen
This function is only available for the PJD6223/PJD6253/PJD6353/PJD6353s/PJD6383/PJD6383s/
PJD6653w/PJD6653ws  series.
In addition to selecting the projector preset startup screen from among ViewSonic logo, 
Black or Blue screen, you can make your own startup screen that is a picture projected from 
your computer or video source.
To create your own startup screen, project the picture you want to use as your startup screen 
from either a computer or video source. The rest of the steps are as follows.
1. Press MENU/EXIT on the projector or Menu on the remote control and then press 
/  until the SYSTEM SETUP: Basic menu is highlighted.
2. Press   to highlight Screen Capture and press MODE/ENTER on the projector or
Enter on the remote control.
3. A confirmation message is displayed. Press MODE/ENTER on the projector or 
Enter on the remote control again.
4. The message 'Screen Capturing...' is displayed while the projector is processing the 
picture. Please wait.
5. If the action is successful, you see the message 'Capture Succeeded' on the screen. 
The captured picture is saved as Screen Capture and the captured picture will be 
displayed as the startup screen if you restart the projector.
In the unlikely event that the capturing action fails, change your target picture. When the 
resolution of the input signal is higher than the projector’s native display resolution (See 
"Projector specifications" on page 64 for details.), the capture action may fail. When it 
happens, please set the resolution of the input signal under native resolution and try again.
We recommend you use the High Altitude 
mode by selecting it whenever your 
environment is higher than 1500 m.
