Keystone Adjustments
What is Keystone?
“Keystone” occurs when a projector is aligned non-perpendicularly to a screen, or when the projection screen has an angled surface. The image that results from one of these misalignments will look trapezoidal rather than square.
Digital Keystone Adjustments
By adding a special, selectable algorithm to the scaling, some new projectors are able to alter the image before it reaches the projection lens. The result is a squared image, even at an angle.
Keystone Adjustments FAQ
How to Correct Keystone
- If the image looks trapezoidal with the base larger (as pictured right), press the “up” button on the directional pad on the top of the P300 Neo until the keystone effect corrects and the picture turns into a square projection.
- If the image looks trapezoidal with the top larger (as pictured right), press the “down” button on the directional pad on the top of the P300 Neo until the keystone effect corrects and the picture turns into a square projection.

Troubleshooting
THE PROJECTOR DOES NOT TURN ON
Possible Causes | Solution |
There is no power | Check to ensure the power outlet source is good. Check the Power Adapter to ensure a proper con- nection with the wall outlet as well as the projector. Confirm that the unit is charged and has enough power. |
The power button was not held long enough | To power on the projector, the power button needs to be depressed for a full 3 seconds. Try holding the power button until the optical engine turns on. |
IMAGE IS BLURRED
Possible Causes | Solution |
The Projector is not in focus | Adjust the focus with the focus adjustment dial until the image comes into focus. |
The Projector is offset from plane / angle of operation | Move the projector so that it is both 180 degrees and on an evern plane with the screen. Or it can be adjusted by keystone settings. |

No, it is equipped with a power cord for the projector, you do not need a built-in battery. Only need a AAA battery for the remote control.
