only)
When using EB-824/84, this does not function even if the button is pressed.
Changing the Projected Image
17
Selecting the Projection Quality (Selecting Color
Mode)
You can easily obtain the optimum image quality simply by selecting
the setting that best corresponds to your surroundings when projecting.
The brightness of the image varies depending on the mode selected.
Mode Application
Dynamic
Ideal for use in a bright room. This is the brightest
mode, and reproduces shadow tones well.
If you are worried about image delays during
projection for games involving speed, try turning off
Progressive in the Configuration Menu. s p.36
Presentation
Ideal for making presentations using color materials in
a bright room.
Theatre
Ideal for watching films in a dark room. Gives images
a natural tone.
Photo
(When the computer image input and the Source are
USB or LAN.)
Ideal for projecting still pictures, such as photos, in a
bright room. The images are vivid and brought into
contrast.
Sports
(When Component Video, S-Video, or composite
video images are input)
Ideal for watching TV programmes in a bright room.
The images are vivid and brought to life.
sRGB
g
Ideal for images that conform to the sRGB color
standard.
Blackboard
Even if you are projecting onto a Blackboard
(greenboard), this setting gives your images a natural
tint, just like when projecting onto a screen.
Whiteboard
Ideal for making presentations using black-and-white
materials in a bright room.
Procedure
Remote Control
Each time you press the button, the Color Mode name is displayed on
the screen and the Color Mode changes.
If you press the button while the Color Mode name is displayed on the
screen, it changes to the next Color Mode.
q
The color mode can also be set using Color Mode in the Image
menu from the Configuration Menu. s p.35
Functions for Enhancing Projection
18
Setting the Auto Iris
By automatically setting the luminance according to the brightness of
the displayed image, it lets you enjoy deep and rich images.
Procedure
A
Press the [Menu] button and select Image - Auto Iris from
the Configuration Menu.
s
"Using the Configuration Menu"
Using the Remote Control Using the Control panel
B
Select On.
The setting is stored for each Color Mode.
C
Press the [Menu] button to close the Configuration Menu.
q
Auto Iris can be set only when the Color Mode is Dynamic or
Theatre.
Hiding the Image and Sound Temporarily (A/V
Mute)
You can use this when you want to focus the audience's attention on
what you are saying, or if you do not want to show details such as
when you are changing between files during presentations from a computer.
Procedure
Remote Control Body
Each time you press the button, or open/close the lens cover A/V Mute
turns on or off.
q
• If you use this function when projecting moving images, the
images and sound continue to be played back by the source, and
you cannot return to the point where A/V Mute was activated.
• You can choose to display Black, Blue, or Logo as the A/V
Mute display using the Extended - Display - A/V Mute setting
from the configuration menu. s p.39
• When the A/V mute slide knob is closed, or when no operations
are made for approximately 30 minutes, Sleep Mode activates and
the power is automatically turned off. If you do not want Sleep
Mode to activate, change the Lens Cover Timer setting to Off
from Operation in the Extended menu. s p.39
Functions for Enhancing Projection
19
Freezing the Image (Freeze)
When the moving image on the screen is frozen, the image continues
to project, so you can project a moving image one frame at a time like
a still photo. Also, you can perform operations such as changing
between files during presentations from a computer without projecting
any images if the freeze function is activated beforehand.
Procedure
Remote Control
Each time you press the button, Freeze turns on or off.
q
• Audio does not stop.
• The image source continues to play back the moving images
even while the screen is frozen, and so it is not possible to
resume projection from the point where it was paused.
• If the [Freeze] button is pressed while the Configuration Menu
or a Help screen is displayed, the menu or Help screen being
displayed is cleared.
• Freeze still works while E-Zoom is being used.
Changing the Aspect Ratio
Change the Aspect Ratio
g
when video equipment is connected so that
images that have been recorded in digital video or onto DVDs can be
viewed in 16:9 wide-screen format. Change the Aspect Ratio when
