Auto Input Source Selection
When you turn on the projector, it checks the status of each input source (whether or not
the input source is sending a signal) in the sequence shown below. It automatically selects
the first input source it finds that is sending an input signal, and projects the applicable
image.
RGB terminal input
(RGB/Component)
If the RGB input terminal is connected to a computer and the S-VIDEO input terminal is
connected to a video deck and signals are being supplied by both, for example, the projector
automatically selects RGB input when it is turned on. The currently selected input source
name is shown in the upper right corner of the projection screen.
z If the projector does not find any input signal, the message “No signal input” appears in
place of the input source name.
z The input source that corresponds to input to the RGB input terminal is displayed in

Keystone Correction (KEYSTONE)
When the projector is at an angle to the screen it is projecting on, the projected image may
have different length top and bottom edges. This phenomenon is called, “keystoning”. This
projector comes with functions for automatic as well as manual keystone correction, which
provides a regularly shaped projected image. The following shows the allowable angle that the
projector can be positioned relative to the screen.
Screen
Up to about 20
degrees
Up to about 20
degrees
z The angles shown in the above illustration are subject to the following conditions.
z Projection of an image from a computer (Resolution: 1024 × 768; Vertical Frequency:
60Hz)
z Resize Image To Fit: On
z Actual correction ranges are affected by the type of signal being projected, zoom, the
“Resize Image To Fit” setting, the aspect ratio setting, and other factors.
z Keystone correction can cause the corrected image to be smaller than the original
(uncorrected) image, or it can cause distortion of the image. If the projected image
becomes difficult to view, try moving the screen and/or projector so they are oriented
close to the configuration shown under “Setting Up the Projector” in the “User’s Guide
(Basic Operations)”.
z The projector does not support horizontal keystone correction. The center of the
projector’s lens should be aligned with the horizontal center of the screen (see “Setting
Up the Projector” in the “User’s Guide (Basic Operations)”).

Projection Operations
Automatic Keystone Correction
Automatic keystone correction correct the image to counteract the effects of vertical keystoning.
Performing auto keystone correction causes the message “Auto Keystone Corrected.” to appear
in the bottom center of the projected image.
z Auto keystone correction is performed by detecting the elevation angle of the projector.
This means that the surface you are projecting onto needs to be standing straight up. If
the surface you are projecting onto is not straight, use manual keystone correction to
correct the image.
z You can turn auto keystone correction on or off as required. For details, see “Detailed
Settings J Advanced Settings 1 J Auto Keystone Correction” on page 40.

Using the Setup Menu
Before Configuring Menu Settings
Always remember that the settings you configure on the setup menu are applied for the input
source (RGB, Component, S-VIDEO, VIDEO) that was selected when you displayed the setup
menu. Note the following important points.
z The items that appear on the setup menu depend on the currently selected input source
and other factors.
Some items apply to a certain specific input source, while some apply to multiple input
sources.
z Even for menu items that are common to multiple input sources, the setting range or
selectable options may differ according to the input source.
z With certain exceptions, there are basically two types of settings that can be configured
for multiple input sources. One type lets you configure different settings for each individual
input source. The other type applies a single setting to all input sources. The volume
level setting, for example, lets you configure a different setting for each input source, while
the keystone correction setting lets you configure a single common setting for all input
sources.
z In the case of settings that can be configured for each input source, you can configure
and save settings for the following signal types when the input source is a component
signal.
(1) 480i60 and 576i50 (2) 480p60 and 576p50 (3) 1080i60 and 720p60
When the input source is a 480i60 component signal, for example, changing the setting
for “Image Adjustment J Brightness” will cause the change to be reflected when the input
source is a 567i50 component signal as well. The change is not, however, reflected for
the 480p60 or 1080i60 signal.
z For details about how settings are saved, and other details, see “Setup Menu Reference”
on page 27.
