Getting started Using other useful functions You may use buttons on the LCD projector or remote control unit for the following operations. Selecting the Language for OnScreen Displays (for Model PV215E-C only) The LCD projector can display screens in one of five different languages. The procedure and on-screen displays shown below assume that an RGB signal is being used as the input signal.
Getting started Turning off the input signal display The function which displays the currently selected input signal on the screen can be turned off by the following procedure. The procedure and on-screen displays shown below assume that an RGB signal is being used as the input signal.
Getting started Canceling the enlarging (scanning line conversion) function When a VIDEO/S-VIDEO signal in NTSC format or a signal with less than 800 x 600 dots (for example, 640x480 dots) is input, the LCD projector automatically enlarges the image to 800 x 600 dots. This may cause picture quality degradation. For a better image, select EXPANSION (VGA) or (NTSC):OFF by the following procedure. The procedure and on-screen displays shown below assume that an RGB signal is being used as the input signal.
Getting started Blue Screen with no input signal The LCD projector is equipped with an internal blue screen function which turns the screen blue when the video or computer equipment connected to the input jack is turned off, or when there is nothing connected to the input jack.
