To access the main On Screen Display menu, press the

Menu key on the keyboard or the key Menu + or Menu -

on the remote control

(Fig. 46)

Fig. 46

The main menu is divided into four sections to cover va-

rious adjustments in a practical and logical manner.

The on-screen menu layout is dependant upon the cho-

sen input signal so various options may not be applica-

ble, i.e. some typical adjustments to the video signal are

not applicable to the graphic RGB signals from PC and

viceversa.

13.1.1 BRIGHTNESS

Use this control to adjust the image’s black level.

13.1.2 CONTRAST

Use this control to adjust the image’s white level, be ca-

reful not to over saturate the white level.

13.1.3 COLOR

Use this control to adjust the colour level.

13.1.4 TINT

Controls the purity of the colours, to NTSC coded signal

standards. Tint is only applicable to video input with NTSC

standard, to RGB 15kHz and YCrCb 15kHz inputs and

YCrCb 32kHz (no RI2).

13.1.5 SHARPNESS

Use this adjustment to increase and decrease the level of

picture detail.

13.1.6 SHARPNESS MODE

It allows to select the type of processing that determines

the detail. In progressive or de-interlaced video signals

the video option is suggested, with graphic signals from

a PC the Graphic option is suggested.

13.1.7 FILTER

For video signals it improves the image’s horizontal/vertical

definition and sharpness.

13.1.8 CINEMA MODE

In Auto the de-interlaced recognizes if the video signal is

originated from a cinematographic film (resulting from

Teleciné with 3:2 or 2:2 Pull Down) and applies an

interpolation algorithm optimized for this type of signal.

Instead if the video signal does not originate from a

cinematographic film, or Off is chosen, the de-interlacer

applies a “Motion Compensated” algorithm optimized for

signals coming from a videocamera.

13.1.9 VIDEO TYPE

Inserts a filter that improves stability of images from vi-

deo-recorders. To toggle between Normal and VCR mode,

press the VCR key on the remote control.

QUICK MENU

It's possible to access to adjustment herewith showed,

using the P+ and P- keys on remote control, without

is possible to select the aspect ratio.

13.2.2.1 Normal

This aspect projects the image occuping the full vertical

dimension of the screen and maintaining the correct

aspect (4:3 or 16:9).

13.2.2.2 Anamorpchic

This aspect allows to properly visualize an image 16:9

13.2.2.3 Letterbox

This aspect allows to project a 4:3 letterbox image fil-ling

the 16:9 screen and maintaining the correct aspect ratio.

13.2.2.4 Panoramic

This aspect stretches the 4:3 image slightly cutting the

upper and lower parts. It's ideal to project a 4:3 image in

a screen of 16:9 aspect ratio.

13.2.2.5 Pixel to Pixel

This aspect projects the signal as it is input without scaling

up or down.

Image is projected in the center of screen.

Select Zoom (the magnifying lens icon will appear at

the centre of the image) to adjust the level of enlargement,

using the Left and Right Arrows.

Select Pan (zoom button on the remote control) to choose

the area of image to enlarge, using all four arrow keys.

KEYSTONE

To obtain maximum quality of the projected image, we

recommend the installation of the projector on a level

platform parallel and central to the screen. In the event

that the picture is not correctly positioned use the lensshift

feature. Should it not be possible to centralize the image

by adjusting the lens height, tilt the projector, but this will

create keystone error.
