Controlling the Picture and Sound

You can use the remote control to preview and select your picture

sources, temporarily turn o the picture and sound, freeze the action,

zoom in on the picture, and adjust the volume.

After you select a source, the screen goes dark for a moment before the

Adjusting the Aspect Ratio

You can use the Aspectbutton on the remote control to adjust how

an image ts into the display area. Each time you press the button, the

projector changes to the next setting.

When Connected to Video Equipment

If you’re projecting from video equipment such as a DVD player, set

the projector’s Aspect setting to match that of the player. For

example, if the video player is set to output images at a 16:9 aspect

ratio, set the projector’s Aspectsetting to16:9 so they match. If the

player outputs images at a 4:3 aspect ratio, select 4:3 (PowerLite

85/825)or Normal(PowerLite 85/826W).

Note that the projector’s native aspect ratio is narrower than 16:9.

Therefore, widescreen movies and HDTV broadcasts will display with

black bars at the top and bottom when 16:9 is selected as the Aspect

setting. For the PowerLite 826W, you can select Full to stretch the

image vertically to ll the whole projection area.

When Connected to a Computer

For computer images, Normal is usually the best setting to select.

This displays the image at the largest possible size without stretching

it. For computers with wide-panel WXGA displays, the PowerLite

826W displays the image at WXGA resolution, making full use of the

display area; likewise, the PowerLite 85/825 displays XGA images to

their best advantage.

Depending on your computer display and projector model, you may

see black bars at the edges. In that case, try selecting 16:9. The

PowerLite 826W also lets you select:

Full to stretch the image to ll the whole projection area

Zoom to t the image in one dimension only, with the other

dimension cut o

Throughto display the image without stretching or scaling it

If the resolution of the image is the same as the projector’s, changing

the

Aspectsetting has no eect. Also, if you’re projecting through

your computer’s USB port, you can’t change the projector’s aspect

ratio; instead, change your computer’s resolution to match that of the

projector.

note

If part of the image remains

cut o, check theprojector’s

Resolution setting (see

page 92). Select Normalor

Wide, depending on the size

of your computer’s display

panel.
