Correcting the Projected Image Using Screen Fit (EB-1925W/1915 Only)

23
This projector (EB-1925W/1915) is equipped with the following two functions for automatically correcting the projected image.
Auto H/V-Keystone
When the projector senses any movement, for example, when it is moved, repositioned or tilted, it automatically corrects vertical and horizontal keystone distortions and focus problems. This function of the projector is called Auto H/V-Keystone. When the projector remains still for about two seconds after it sensed a movement, it displays a screen for adjustment and then automatically corrects the projected image.
Auto H/V-Keystone only works when Extended menu -
q
Screen Fit
Screen Fit is a function that corrects the projected image so that it aligns with the frame (outer border) of the screen, white board and the like. By pressing the [Screen Fit] button on the remote control or the control panel, the projected image is fitted into the screen, and keystone correction and focus adjustments are performed automatically.
Projection from the Configuration menu is set to Front. s p.58
If you do not want to use the Auto H/V-Keystone function, set Configuration menu - Settings menu - Keystone - H/V-Keystone
- Auto H/V-Keystone to Off.s p.56
s
Quick Start Guide
The following are the conditions for correcting the projected image using Screen Fit.
Screen size: less than or equal to 100"
Distance between projector and screen: approx. 1.0 to 3.5 m
Correction angle: approx 20˚ right and left/approx. 30˚ up and down
If you exceed the above mentioned range, the projected image
q
cannot be corrected properly. Correct the projected image manually. Also, depending on the combination of horizontal and vertical angles, the range of correction may be narrower than the above mentioned values.
Screen Fit does not function if the projector is suspended from a ceiling. Correct the projected image manually.
This section explains how to correct the projected image using Screen Fit.
Correcting the Projected Image Using Screen Fit (EB-1925W/1915 Only)

Procedure
A
Press the [Screen Fit] button on the remote control or the control panel.
Using the Remote Control Using the Control panel
When the following message box appears, move the projector to adjust the position of the projected image, so that the message box is at the center of the screen.
B
C
Adjust the Zoom ring so that the projected area (defined by outer white border line) is bigger than the screen frame.
If the projected area is still not larger than the frame even after adjusting the Zoom ring to its maximum size, try moving the projector further away from the screen. (If this causes the message box moves away from the center of the screen, adjust it so that it is centered again.)
Press the [Screen Fit] button again.
After the adjustment screen appears, the projected image is corrected according to the
Aspect Ratiog of the inputted image.
q
Correction cannot be performed unless the message box fits within the screen frame. If you cannot make the message box fit inside the screen frame even after adjusting the projector position or the Zoom ring, correct the projected image manually.
q
Once the adjustment screen appears, do not move the projector or block the image. The projected image will not be corrected properly
Correcting the Projected Image Using Screen Fit (EB-1925W/1915 Only)

D
After the correction is performed, the following message appears. To exit the correction menu, press the [Esc button] on the remote control or the control panel to clear the message. To fine-tune the projected image after it has been corrected,
make the adjustments using the [
on the control panel.
If no operation is performed, the message closes after about 5 seconds.
After Screen Fit is executed, Keystone from the Configuration menu is set to Quick Corner. After this, any correction of the
projected image using [
control panel will be done through the Quick Corner function.

q
Screen Fit corrects the projected image when it detects two or more sides inside the projected area, and aligns with the detected frame. For example, when projecting onto a wide screen in a small room, you can make corrections by fitting the top and bottom sides of the screen into the projected area.
Screen Fit may not work well in dark environment, such
as a room with lights turned off. In this case, make the room brighter, then try executing Screen Fit again.
Because Screen Fit uses a sensor, it may not work
properly depending on the condition of the projected surface (deflections, patterns and the like) or the effects of outside light. In this case, make the adjustments manually.

Correcting Distortions in the Projected Image Using Quick Corner (EB-1925W/1915 Only)

This projector (EB-1925W/1915) provides two ways to correct distortion in projected images as below.
H/V-Keystone This allows you to manually correct distortion in the horizontal and
vertical directions independently. H/V-Keystone correction is ideal for fine-tuning Keystone distortion. You can perform easy corrections by
26
using the [
control panel.
Quick Corner This allows you to manually correct each of the four corners of the projected image separately.
This section explains how to correct the projected image using Quick Corner.
