Changing the Projected Image

Use the following methods to switch images for projection.

• Switching by source search The projector automatically detects signals being input from connected equipment, and the image being input from the equipment is projected.

• Direct switching (EB-W6 only) Switch by pressing the button for the target input port on the remote control.

Switching by Automatic Detection of Input Signal (Source Search)

You can project the target image quickly because the [Source Search] button skips input ports where no image is being input.

Changing the Projected Image

The following screen showing the status of image signals is

displayed when only the image that the projector is currently displaying is available, or when no image signal can be found. You can select the input port where the connected equipment you want to use is projecting. If no operation is performed after about 10 seconds, the screen closes.

Direct Switching by Remote Control (EB-W6 only)

You can switch directly to the targeted source by pressing a button on the remote control.

Refer to the following for button operation. s p.11

Functions for Enhancing Projection

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

Game Ideal for use in a bright room. This is the brightest

mode and reproduces shadow tones well.

Presentation Ideal for making presentations using color materials

in a bright room.

Tex t Ideal for making presentations using black-and-

white materials in a bright room.

Theater Ideal for watching films in a dark room. This gives

images a natural tone.

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

Each time you press the button, or the A/V mute slide is opened or closed, A/V Mute turns on or off.

• 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.

• From the remote control you can choose to display black, blue, or logo as the A/V mute display using the "Extended" - "Display" - "A/V Mute" setting in the

configuration menu.

• When the A/V mute slide is closed and A/V Mute begins, the power supply can be set to automatically turn off after about 30 minutes by setting "Extended" - "Operation" "Lens Cover Timer" in the configuration menu.

Functions for Enhancing Projection

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

• Audio does not stop.

• The image source continues to play back the moving images even while the screen is frozen, 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.

EB-W6 EB-X6/S6

Each time you press the button, Freeze turns on or off.

want to project a full screen on a 16:9 screen.

When some portions of an image are missing or not all of the image can be projected during computer image projection, set

"Resolution" in the configuration menu to "Wide" or "Normal" according to the panel size of the computer.

f Changing the aspect of computer image/HDMI image (For EB-W6)

When projecting input images from the Computer input port or HDMI input port, the aspect ratio can be changed as follows. For EB-W6 the projection size is 1280 x 800 dots (aspect ratio 16:10) due to WXGA panel resolution. When projecting on to 16:9 screens, set the aspect to "16:9".

Zoom Projects to full projection size in the lateral

direction retaining the aspect ratio of input image. Parts that extend beyond the projection size are not projected.
