f The A/V mute slide makes it easy to project and store

You can stop and resume projection easily by opening and closing the A/V mute slide which makes giving clear presentations easier.

f Easy to use control panel

For ease of use, buttons are classified and arranged according to their projection and adjustment functions. s p.7

Security Functions

fPassword Protect to restrict and manage users

By setting a password you can restrict who can use the projector. s p.26

fOperation Lock restricts button operation on the control panel

You can use this to prevent people changing projector settings without permission at events, in schools, and so on.

Changing the Projected Image

You can change the projected image in the following two ways.

Changing by Source Search

The projector automatically detects signals being input from connected equipment, and the image being input from the equipment is projected.

Changing directly

You can use the remote control buttons to change to the target input port.

Automatically Detect Incoming Signals and Change the Projected Image (Source Search)

You can project the target image quickly as input ports with no image signal being input are ignored when you change by pressing the [Source Search] button.

The input port where no image signal is being input is skipped.

*EasyMP changes when using EMP-1715/1705.

Install the wireless LAN unit supplied (EMP-1715/1705 only).

Procedure

When your video equipment is connected, start playback before beginning this operation.

13

Using the remote control

Using the control panel

When two or more pieces of equipment are connected, press the [Source Search] button until the target image is projected.

The following screen showing the status of image signals is q 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.

Changing the Projected Image

14

Changing Directly from the Remote Control

You can change directly to the target image by pressing the following buttons on the remote control.

Remote control

Changes to images from the Computer (Component Video) port.

Changes to images from the S-Video port.

Changes to the

EasyMP image.

(EMP-1715/1705 only)

Functions for Enhancing Projection

15

Selecting the Projection Quality (Selecting Colour

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

Photo

(When computer images are input)

 

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.

 

 

Presentation

Ideal for giving presentations in a bright room.

 

 

Theatre

Ideal for watching films in a dark room. Gives

 

images a natural tone.

 

 

Game

Ideal for playing video games in a bright room.

 

Excels at emphasizing dark gradations.

 

 

sRGBg

Ideal for images that conform to the sRGB colour

 

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.

 

 

Customized

You can set it to a specific colour.

 

 

Procedure

Remote control

Each time you press the button, the colour mode name is displayed on the screen and the colour mode changes.

If you press the button while the colour mode name is displayed on the screen, it changes to the next colour mode.

q The colour mode can also be set using "Color Mode" in the "Image" menu from the configuration menu. s p.32

Functions for Enhancing Projection

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

Projector

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

16

• If you use this function when projecting moving images, q 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.35

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" - "Sleep Mode" from the configuration menu. s p.36

Functions for Enhancing Projection

17

 

 

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.

Adjusting Colour for Several Projectors (Multi-Screen Colour Adjustment) 23

When several projectors are lined up and projecting images, you can adjust the brightness and colour tone of each projector's image with multi-screen colour adjustment so that the colours of images from each projector match closely.

In some cases the brightness and colour tone may not match completely even after adjustment.

Summary of Adjustment Procedure

Make adjustments according to the following procedure.

1.Setting screen ID

Before setting up the projectors, set one screen ID for each.

When making adjustments for two or more projectors using the remote control, you can operate them individually by setting individual screen IDs for each projector.

2.Making image corrections

After the projectors are setup, you can adjust the image for each projector.

Using Image Correction you can adjust from black to white in five stages called levels 1 to 5, and in each level 1 to 5 you can adjust the following two points.

Adjusting brightness

Adjust each image by levels 1 to 5 so that they are all equal.

Adjusting colour

Adjust each image by levels 1 to 5 so that the colours match using "Color Correct. (G/R)" and "Color Correct. (B/Y)".

Setting Screen ID

For instance, after setting one projector as screen ID3, when you press button [3] while holding down the [Num] button, even if there is more than one projector setup, you can operate just the one set as screen ID3.

Procedure

A Press the [Menu] button and select "Extended" -

"Multi-screen" - "Screen ID" from the configuration menu. s p.31
