Adjusting the Screen Image Adjusting the Image Size Correcting Keystone Distortion Adjusting the Image Angle Displaying a Test Pattern You can adjust the screen image in order to obtain the best possible picture. Adjusting the Image Size The size of the projected image is basically determined by the distance from the projector to the screen. (Refer to the Setup Guide.) The following procedures explain how to adjust the screen image once the projector itself has been set up.
Adjusting the Screen Image Correcting Keystone Distortion If the projector is set up so that it is at an angle to the screen, a type of distortion known as "keystone distortion" may occur. Keystone correction can be carried out if the angle of the projector is within a range of approximately 15° vertically from the perpendicular. Approx. 15° above Approx. 15° below 15° 15° Procedure While holding down the [SHIFT] button on the projector's control panel, press the or button.
Adjusting the Image Size Correcting Keystone Distortion Adjusting the Image Angle Displaying a Test Pattern Displaying a Test Pattern When setting up the projector, you can project a test pattern onto the screen and use this test pattern to adjust the projected images before a video source has been connected. The following two types of test pattern are available. • Crosshatch • Basic Operations This can be used to adjust the focus and correct keystone distortion.
Adjusting the Image Quality The quality of the screen images can be adjusted as follows. Focusing the Screen Image Turn the focus ring to adjust the image focus. Procedure • If the surface of the lens is dirty or misted over as a result of condensation, it may not be possible to adjust the focus correctly. If this happens, clean or de-mist the lens.
