■ Macintosh OS 9.x:
On the Apple menu, choose
Control Panels , then click
Monitors or Monitors and Sound . Select a different
resolution.
If this option isn’t available, select one of the other compatible
video formats listed on page 96.
■ You may also need to modify existing presentation files if you
created them for a different resolution. See your software
documentation for specific information.
■ If you’ve set up your projector and computer to display the same
image simultaneously, the projector may only project half the
image. Turn off the dual display settings.
The image isn’t rectangular, but trapezoid-shaped.
■ Make sure the projector isn’t placed off to one side of the screen,
at an angle, or the image won’t be rectangular. Place it directly in
front of the center of the screen, facing the screen squarely.
■ If you’ve tilted the projector upward, the image will be broader at
the top. Turn on Auto Keystone correction as described on
page 57 or hold down the
or buttons on top of the
projector until the image is rectangular.
The image contains static or noise.
■ If you’re using a computer cable longer than 6 feet, or an
extension cable, the image quality may be reduced.
■ Keep your computer and video cables separated from the power
cord as much as possible to prevent interference.
■ The video signal may be split between the computer and the
projector. If you notice a decline in the projected image quality
when the image is displayed simultaneously on your notebook
computer and the projector, turn off the notebook’s LCD display.
