Some of the “Wide Mode” setting items are not displayed on the screen according to the input
signal.
Note that if the projector is used for profit or for public viewing, modifying the original picture by
switching to the wide mode may constitute an infringement of the rights of authors or producers,
which are legally protected.
This projector has 45 types of preset data for input signals (the preset memory). When a
preset signal is input, the projector automatically detects the signal type and recalls the
data for the signal from the preset memory to adjust it to an optimum picture. The memory
number and signal type of that signal are displayed on the INFORMATION menu (1
page 44). You can also adjust the preset data through the INPUT SETTING menu.
See the chart on page 54 to find if the signal is registered in the preset memory.
When the aspect ratio of input signal is other than “Full 2”, a part of the screen may be displayed in
black.
