Making Basic Adjustments

Note: When displaying 720p, 1080i, or 1080p signals through the HDMI or Component video port,
the aspect ratio is automatically selected and you cannot change it.

If you display a 4:3 image using the Zoom setting, the top and bottom will be cut off. You can use
the Zoom Caption Pos. option and other settings to resize and reposition the image. For details,
see page 47.

For details on how the projector resizes the picture when you choose an Aspect setting, see
page 67.

Choosing the Color Mode

You can change the Color Mode to automatically adjust brightness, contrast, and color,
letting you quickly optimize the projected image for various lighting environments. You can
also select a different color mode for each input source—which is useful if you view different
types of images from different sources. (For example, you might set the HDMI 1 source to

Cinema Day or Living Room

if it’s usually used for watching movies in the daytime with

the blinds closed, and the PC source to

Vivid

Dynamic

for playing video games with the

blinds open.)

Select the image source you want to adjust, then press the

Color Mode

button on the remote

control. Choose from these settings:

■ Vivid

(Pro Cinema 9700 UB) or

Dynamic (

Pro

Cinema 9350

■ Cinema Day

(Pro Cinema 9700 UB) or

Living

Room(

Pro Cinema 9350

)

for watching television

programs during the day.

■ THX

(Pro Cinema 9700 UB) or

Natural

(Pro Cinema

9350) for projecting natural, accurate colors in a dimly
lit room.

■ Cinema Night

(Pro Cinema 9700 UB) or

Cinema

(Pro Cinema 9350)

for viewing

movies in a dimly lit room.

■ HD

(Pro Cinema 9700 UB) for images that are close to those in professional-use

broadcast monitors. Use in a fully darkened room.

at the theater. Use in a fully darkened room.
