Adjusting adjustable feet
Install the projector on a flat surface so that the front of the projector is parallel to the screen surface and the projection screen is rectangular .
If the screen is tilted downward, the projection screen can be adjusted to be rectangular by adjusting the adjustable feet.  The adjustable feet 
can also be used to adjust the projector to be level when it is tilted in a horizontal direction.
Extend the adjustable feet by rotating in the direction shown in the figure and retract by rotating in the opposite direction.

Connections
Before connecting to the projector
rfBefore connecting, carefully read the operating instructions for the external device to be connected.
rfT

urn off the power of all devices before connecting cables.
rfAcquire any connection cable necessary to connect the external device to the system that is either not supplied with the device or not 
available as an option.
rfV

ideo signals containing too much jitter may cause the images on the screen to randomly wobble or wafture. In this case, a time base 
corrector (TBC) must be connected.
rf The projector accepts video signals, S video signals, analog RGB signals (synchronous signals are 
TTL

 level), and digital signals.
rfSome computer models are not compatible with the projector

.
rfUse a cable compensator when you connect devices to the projector using long cables. Otherwise the image may not display properly
.
rfRefer to “List of compatible signals” (
x 

page   125) for the types of video signals that can be used with the projector .

Attention
rf Always use one of the following when connecting a VCR.
rgA

 VCR with built-in time base corrector (TBC)
rgA

 time base corrector (TBC) between the projector and the VCR
rfIf nonstandard burst signals are connected, the image may be distorted. In such case, connect the time base corrector (TBC) between the 
projector and the VCR.
rfUse a commercial HDMI/DVI cable with a ferrite core.
Note
rfThe  terminal can be connected to HDMI- or DVI-D-compliant devices. However
, images may not appear or may not be 
displayed properly on some devices. ( x 
page   70)
rfUse an HDMI cable that conforms to HDMI standards such as an HDMI High Speed cable. If a cable that does not meet HDMI standards is 
used, video may be interrupted or may not be displayed.
rfThe  terminal of the projector can be connected to an external device with a DVI-D terminal by using an HDMI/DVI conversion 
cable, but some devices may not project the image properly or function p\

.
rfWhen the DVI-D signal is input, EDID setting may be required depending on the connected device (
