menu group, menu item, and submenu for some menu items. Listed below are the four menu groups.

To adjust the image quality. Available items depend on the type of input signal.
2
To make settings for the connected input signal. Available items depend on the type of input signal.
3
To make your own initial setting for several menu items.
4
To make settings for installation, screen aspect, key stone effect correction and so on.
Each menu group described above consists of the following items. The parameters for these items can be adjusted as you wish by following
the menu operation procedures described from page 18.
