Adjusting the Projection Distance

Upper and Lower Lens Shift Position

• This projector is equipped with a lens shift function that lets you adjust the projection height.

• Adjust it to match the setup configuration.

• The screen can be moved maximum the length of one screen vertically using the lens shift.

• Optimal image quality is produced with the projector positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level. Tilting or angling the projector will reduce the effectiveness of the lens shift function.

Image Projection

Rear Projection

• Place a translucent screen between the projector and the audience.

• Use the projector’s menu screen to reverse the projected image. (See page 42 for use of this function.)

• Optimal image quality can be achieved when the projector is positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and leveled.

Projection Using a Mirror

• When the distance between the projector and a screen is not sufficient for normal rear projection, you can use a mirror to reflect the image onto the screen.

• Place a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens.

• Project the normal image onto the mirror.

• The image reflected from the mirror is projected onto

the translucent screen.

• When using a mirror, be sure to carefully position both the projector and the mirror so the light does not shine into the eyes of the audience.

Ceiling-mount Projection

• It is recommended that you use the optional Sharp ceiling-mount bracket for this installation.

• Before mounting the projector, remove the Swivel Stand. (See page 17 for removing and attaching the Swivel Stand.)

• Before mounting the projector, contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Service Center or Dealer to obtain the recommended ceiling-mount bracket (commercially available). (AN-CM260 ceiling-mount bracket, AN-EP101B extension tube for AN-CM260.)

• When the projector is in the inverted position, use the upper edge of the screen as the base line.

• Use the projector’s menu screen to select the appropriate projection mode. (See page 42 for use of this function.)

This SHARP projector uses a DMD chip. This very sophisticated chip contains 480,000 pixels. As with any high technology electronic equipment such as large screen TVs, video systems and video cameras, there are certain acceptable tolerances that the equipment must conform to.

Specifications are subject to change without notice.

This unit has some inactive pixels within acceptable tolerances which may result in inactive dots on the picture screen. This will not affect the picture quality or the life expectancy of the unit. If you have any questions about this matter, please call toll free 1-800-BE-SHARP (1800-237-4277). U.S.A. ONLY

Glossary

Aspect ratio

Width and height ratio of an image. The normal aspect ratio of a computer and video image is 4 : 3. There are also wide images with an aspect ratio of 16 : 9 and 21 : 9.

Auto Sync

Optimizes projected computer images by automatically adjusting certain characteristics.

Background

Initial setting image projected when no signal is being input.

Clock

Clock adjustment is used to adjust vertical noise when clock level is incorrect.

CLR Temp (Color temperature)

Function that can be used to adjust the color temperature to suit the type of image input to the projector. Decrease the color temperature to create warmer, reddish images for natural flesh tones, or increase to create cooler, bluish images for a brighter picture.

Composite sync

Signal combining horizontal and vertical sync pulses.

Digital keystone correction

Function to digitally correct a distorted image when the projector is set up at an angle, smoothes out jaggies on keystone images and compresses the image not only horizontally but vertically keeping the 4 : 3 aspect ratio.

Digital shift

Shifts image up or down easily by / buttons when RESIZE mode of input image is NORMAL, BORDER, or STRETCH of COMPUTER, VIDEO and DTV inputs.

DVI (Digital Visual Interface)

Display digital interface that also supports Analog interfaces.

GAMMA

Image quality enhancement function that offers a richer image by brightening the darker portions of the image without altering the brightness of the brighter portions. You can select from four different modes: Standard, Black Detail, White Detail and Brighten.

HDCP

Digital entertainment content is protected from copying with the HDCP system.

Intelligent compression and expansion

High quality resizing of lower and higher resolution images to fit the projector’s native resolution.

Phase

Phase shift is a timing shift between isomorphic signals with the same resolution. When phase level is incorrect, the projected image typically displays horizontal flicker.

RESIZE

Allows you to modify or customize the picture display mode to enhance the input image. You can select from four different modes: NORMAL, FULL, BORDER and STRETCH.

Stretch

Mode that stretches the 4:3 image horizontally to display it on the wide screen.
