Changing the Projected Image Use the following methods to switch images for projection. • Switching by source search The projector automatically detects signals being input from connected equipment, and the image being input from the equipment is projected. • Direct switching (EB-W6 only) Switch by pressing the button for the target input port on the remote control. 17 Procedure When your video equipment is connected, start playback before beginning this operation.
Changing the Projected Image q The following screen showing the status of image signals is displayed when only the image that the projector is currently displaying is available, or when no image signal can be found. You can select the input port where the connected equipment you want to use is projecting. If no operation is performed after about 10 seconds, the screen closes.
Functions for Enhancing Projection Selecting the Projection Quality (Selecting Color Mode) You can easily obtain the optimum image quality simply by selecting the setting that best corresponds to your surroundings when projecting. The brightness of the image varies depending on the mode selected. Mode Game Presentation Text Theater Photo*1 Sports*2 sRGBg Blackboard *1 *2 Application Ideal for use in a bright room. This is the brightest mode and reproduces shadow tones well.
Functions for Enhancing Projection f Changing color mode with the configuration menu Procedure the [Menu] button and select "Image" - "Color A Press Mode" in the configuration menu. EB-W6 s p.37 EB-X6 s p.38 EB-S6 s p.39 Using the remote control EB-W6 EB-X6/S6 Using the control panel EB-W6/X6 EB-S6 B Select a Color Mode name. the [Menu] button to close the configuration C Press menu.
Functions for Enhancing Projection Setting Auto Iris By automatically setting the luminance according to the brightness of the displayed image, it lets you enjoy deep and rich images. Procedure the [Menu] button and select "Image" - "Auto A Press Iris" in the configuration menu. EB-W6 s p.37 EB-X6 s p.38 EB-S6 s p.39 Using the remote control EB-W6 EB-X6/S6 Using the control panel EB-W6/X6 EB-S6 B Select "On". the [Menu] button to close the configuration C Press menu.
Functions for Enhancing Projection Hiding the Image and Sound Temporarily (A/V Mute) You can use this when you want to focus the audience's attention on what you are saying, or if you do not want to show details such as when you are changing between files during presentations from a computer. Procedure Remote control EB-W6 Projector EB-X6/S6 Each time you press the button, or the A/V mute slide is opened or closed, A/V Mute turns on or off.
Functions for Enhancing Projection Freezing the Image (Freeze) When the moving image on the screen is frozen, the image continues to project, so you can project a moving image one frame at a time like a still photo. Also, you can perform operations such as changing between files during presentations from a computer without projecting any images if the Freeze function is activated beforehand. Procedure Remote control EB-W6 EB-X6/S6 Each time you press the button, Freeze turns on or off.
Functions for Enhancing Projection Changing the Aspect Ratio When you connect video equipment and project images that have been recorded in digital video or onto DVDs in 16:9 wide-screen format, change the aspect ratiog.
