To change the color mode, press the
Color Mode button on
the remote control until you see the mode you want. The
currently selected setting appears in the upper right corner of
the screen. You can also use the projector menu system to select
the Color Mode in the Image menu.
Correcting Computer Images
If you’ve connected a computer and the image doesn’t look
right, or it doesn’t fit properly on the screen, press the
Auto
button on the remote control. This automatically resets the
projector’s tracking, sync, resolution, and position settings. You
must be projecting an image for this button to have any effect.
Additionally, if the
Auto Setup option in the Image menu is set
to
OFF, the Auto function will not work.
Sleep/Standby Mode
When the projector has not received any input signals for
30 minutes, it automatically turns off the projector lamp and
enters “sleep mode.” This conserves electricity, cools the
projector, and extends the life of the lamp. If you are done using
the projector, unplug the power cord. If you want to start
projecting again, press the P
Power button.
Note
You can disable sleep mode through the Setting menu.
Shutting Down the Projector
When you’ve finished using the projector, follow the
recommended procedure to shut it down. This extends the life
of the lamp and protects the projector from possible
overheating.
1. If you’re using a computer, shut it down first.
2. To turn off the projector, press the P
Power button on the
projector or remote control. You see a confirmation message.
(If you don’t want to turn it off, press any other button.)
3. Press the P
Power button again. The power light flashes
orange for about twenty seconds as the projector cools down.
When the projector has cooled, the orange light stays on and
the exhaust fan shuts off.
If you want to turn the projector on again, wait until the
orange light stops flashing. Then press the P
Power button.
4. Retract the front feet as shown.
5. Replace the lens cap and unplug the power cord.
Caution
To avoid damaging the projector or lamp, never unplug the
power cord when the power light is green or flashing orange.
6. If you’re using a VCR or other video source, turn it off after
you turn off the projector.
7. Disconnect all equipment, and store the projector in the soft
case that came with it or in a protective case.
Using the Remote Control
Before using the remote control, pull out the tape from the
battery tray as shown below.
When using the remote control, stand within 20 feet of the
projector. Point the remote control either at the front or back of
the projector or at the screen (the projector’s front sensor can
detect signals bounced off the screen). Press the button for the
function you want to use.
Turning Off the Picture and Sound
You can use the A/V Mute button on the remote control to turn
off the image and sound and darken your screen. This is useful
if you want to temporarily re-direct your audience’s attention
without the distraction of a bright screen.
To turn off the picture and sound, press the
A/V Mute
button. The screen goes dark.
To turn the image and sound back on, press the button
again.
