    Adjustments and Settings Using a Menu
    *1: This may not be optimum depending on the input signal. In this case set manually according 
    to the connected equipment.
    *2: When “Standby Mode” is set to “Low,” the network and network control function cannot be 
    operated while the projector is in standby mode.
    *3: This varies depending on the “Lamp Mode” setting. 
    *4: As the lamp is dimmed gradually, you may not notice any change in brightness. You might only 
    notice that the lamp has dimmed when its brightness is restored after there is a change in input 
    signal.
    *5: This mode does not work for about three minutes after the lamp lights. A change in signal may 
    not be detected depending on the input image. The lamp may become brighter at intervals 
    during lamp dimming. However, this is not a malfunction. If With No Input is set, it takes 
    priority. ECO
    Lamp ModeHigh/Standard/Low/Auto
    *5 *7 *15: When set to “High,” the image 
    becomes brighter, and power consumption becomes higher. When set to 
    “Low,” power consumption is minimized; however, the image will be 
    darker. When set to “Auto,” brightness is adjusted automatically 
    according to image content. Dark images are projected with brightness 
    adjusted, leading to energy-saving. Bright images are projected 
    brightly, without adjusting brightness.
    Constant 
    BrightnessOn/Off: Available when the lamp mode is set to High. Outputs light at 
    a certain brightness. 
    *13
    Auto Power Saving
    With No Input
    *16Lamp Cutoff: The lamp turns off automatically and power 
    consumption is reduced if no signal is input for approx. 10 minutes.
    The lamp lights again when a signal is input or any key is pressed. In 
    Lamp Cutoff, the ON/STANDBY indicator lights in orange. (page 73)
    Standby*
    6: If no signal is input to the unit for approx. 10 minutes, the 
    power turns off automatically, and the unit enters standby mode.
    Off: You can deactivate the With No Input.
    With Static 
    Signal
    *17Lamp Dimming*4 *5 *7: If an image does not change for about 10 
    seconds, lamp output is gradually reduced (approximately 10% to 
    15%*
    3) from that set in the Lamp Mode. Automatically the lamp slowly 
    darkens to approximately 30% of its lamp output according to the 
    selected time (with no change to input signal) “5,”  “10,”  “15,”  “20” 
    minutes or “Demo.,” While dimming the lamp, the message “Lamp 
    Dimming” appears. If you select “Demo.,” the image will start to 
    darken about 40 seconds later. When any change in signal is detected, 
    or an operation (remote control or control panel) is performed, normal 
    brightness is restored.
    Off: You can deactivate the With Static Signal.
    Standby Mode*
    2Standard/Low: When set to “Low,” lowers power consumption in 
    Standby mode.
    Direct Power OnOn/Off: When set to “On,” you can turn the power on without going to 
    Standby mode when the AC power cord is connected to a wall outlet. 
    With the projector turned off, you can also unplug the AC power cord 
    without going to Standby mode, regardless of the Direct Power On 
    setting.

    *6: Select “Off” to avoid entering standby mode when there is no input signal.
    *7: Does not function when “Type A USB”, “Type B USB” or “Network” is selected as the input. 
    In this case, it becomes equivalent to “Standard.”
    *8: Reflecting changes in WLAN settings may take a few moments.
    *9: To set the IP address manually, select “Manual”, press “Apply”, then enter the IP address.
    *10: When you send images or files from a tablet PC/smartphone and display them (page 66), set 
    “WLAN Network” to “Access Pt.” to use the IFU-WLM3 USB wireless LAN module (not 
    supplied) as a wireless access point.
    *11: To change the settings for “Access Pt.,” go to the Web page.
    For details, see “Setting the WLAN Network of the projector” (page 40).
    If “Access Pt.” is set, it is more convenient that you set “Display Setting” in “Network 
    Presentation” of the projector to “AP Mode” (page 30) in advance when you use Presentation 
    Function via the network (page 59).
    *12: For changing the settings for “Client,” use the Web browser for change. For details, see 
    “Setting the WLAN Network of the projector” (page 40).
    *13: Constant Brightness mode will be enabled for about 2,000 hours after it is activated at early 
    usage. After this period, it will be disabled automatically. Activated time and brightness may 
    vary depending on the usage conditions.
    *14: If the projector cannot connect wirelessly, click [Apply] once again to make sure the 
    connection is established. For details, see “Setting the WLAN Network of the projector” 
    (page 40).
    *15: This mode does not function while “Interactive Mode” is set to “PC Free” (VPL-SW636C 
    only). In this case, “Lamp Mode” becomes equivalent to “Standard” (page 35).
    *16: This mode does not function while “Interactive Mode” is set to “PC Free” (VPL-SW636C 
    only). In this case, “With No Input” will be “Off
     ” (page 35).
    *17: This mode does not function while “Interactive Mode” is set to “PC Free” (VPL-SW636C 
    only). In this case, “With Static Signal” will be “Off
     ” (page 35).
    *18: If the image output settings of the HDMI device are not appropriate, the bright parts in the 
    image may become too bright, or the dark ones may become too dark.
    *19: Do not turn off the projector soon after the lamp lights. It may cause a malfunction of the lamp 
    (does not light ,etc.).
