Operation During Projection This section explains the various types of operations you can perform while the projector is projecting an image. Image Operations During Projection You can perform the following operations while projecting an image.
Selecting the Color Mode You can select from among five different color mode settings to optimize the projected image in accordance with image contents and projection conditions. To change the color mode 1 Press the [COLOR MODE] key. 2 Use the [T] and [S] keys to move the highlighting to the color mode you want to select, and then press the [ENTER] key. z This displays the color mode selection window. The currently selected color mode is the one whose button is selected (filled in).
Momentarily Cutting Off the Input Source Image 1 Press the [BLANK] key. 2 To resume projection of the image from the input source, press the [BLANK] key (or [ESC] key). z This temporarily cuts off the image from the input source and projects a black screen in its place. Note You can specify projection of a black screen or blue screen, or a logo. For details, see “Blank Screen” under “Screen Settings Main Menu” on page 23. Freezing an Image Pressing the [FREEZE] key freezes the projected image.
Displaying a Pointer in the Projected Image You can select from among different pointer styles, including various arrow styles, for display in the projected image. Pointers can be used during a presentation to indicate or highlight a specific part of the image. Note Depending on the pointer style you are using, the pointer may not display properly when you are using keystone correction. If this happens, use the [KEYSTONE +] and [KEYSTONE –] keys to change the keystone correction value to zero.
To select the pointer type 1 2 Press the [POINTER] key to display the pointer. Keep pressing the [POINTER] key until the pointer you want is displayed. z Each press of the [POINTER] key cycles through the available pointer types. To clear the pointer from the image Press the [ESC] key. Changing the aspect ratio of the projected image Press the [ASPECT] key to change the aspect ratio of the projected image. How the aspect ratio changes depends on the current input source.
Eco Mode Turning on the Eco Mode reduces lamp brightness to save power. The projector’s cooling fan also operates at a slower speed while the Eco Mode is turned on, which results in quieter operation. Turn on the Eco Mode when your priority is quieter operation. Turn off the Eco Mode when your priority is maximum brightness. To turn the Eco Mode on or off Press [ECO] to toggle the Eco Mode on and off.
Configuring Advanced Projector Settings Your projector has a setup menu that you can use to configure advanced settings. Basic Setup Menu Operations Displaying the Setup Menu Pressing the [MENU] key displays the menu shown below in the center of the projection screen. Main menu The main menu includes nine (10 on the USB port equipped models) main menu items. The currently selected main menu item is the one that is highlighted.
Basic Setup Menu Example The procedure below shows how to configure the following three settings: • Image Adjustment 1 J Contrast • Image Adjustment 1 J Color Mode • Option Settings 1 J Eco Mode Note z Certain settings on the setup menu cannot be changed while there is no input signal to the projector. Because of this, you should configure setup menu settings after selecting an input source and starting projection. z This example covers basic steps only.
To configure the “Image Adjustment 1 J Color Mode” setting 5 6 Press the [T] key once to select “Color Mode”. 7 Use the [T] and [S] keys to select the color mode you want, and then press the [ENTER] key. 8 After selecting the color mode you want, press the [ESC] key. Press the [ENTER] key. z This displays the color mode menu. To configure the “Option Settings 1 J Eco Mode” setting 9 Press the [ESC] key. 10 Press the [T] key five times to select “Option Settings 1”. 11 Press the [ENTER] key.
Password Protecting the Projector The password feature lets you keep unauthorized individuals from using the projector. You can specify whether password input is required whenever you turn on the projector, and you can specify and change the password as required. Use the setup menu “Option Settings 1 J Power On Password” setting to configure power on password settings.
Keep a written record of your password! You will not be able to use the projector if you forget its password. We strongly suggest that you keep a written or other type of record of the password so you can look it up when necessary. To change the password 1 2 3 Press the [MENU] key to display the setup menu. Use the [T] key to select “Option Settings 1”, and then press the [ENTER] key. Use the [T] key to select “Power On Password”, and then press the [ENTER] key.
To turn password protection on and off 1 Display the Power On Password setting screen by performing steps 1 through 5 of the procedure under “To change the password” on page 15. z At this time, make sure that “Power On Password” is selected on the Power On Password setting screen. 2 Use the [W] and [X] keys to select “On” or “Off”. z Changing the power on password setting from “On” to “Off” causes the confirmation dialog box shown below to appear.
Restoring Projector Settings to Their Initial Factory Defaults You can use the procedures in this section to restore all of the settings on a particular main menu or all of the settings on the setup menu to their initial factory defaults. To restore all settings on a particular main menu to their initial factory defaults 1 2 Press the [MENU] key to display the setup menu. Use the [T] and [S] keys to select the main menu whose settings you want to restore to their initial factory defaults.
To restore all settings on the setup menu to their initial factory defaults 1 2 Press the [MENU] key to display the setup menu. 3 Use the [T] key to select “Restore All Defaults” sub-menu, and then press the [ENTER] key. Use the [T] key to select “Restore All Defaults”, and then press the [ENTER] key. z This displays a confirmation message asking if you want to initialize all settings. 4 5 Use the [S] key to select “Yes”.
