Adjusting the Image

• Focus: Rotate the focus ring on the lens to sharpen the image.
• Zoom: Use the zoom ring to adjust the image size without moving the projector.

The projector delivers vibrant and sharp WXGA resolution (1280 x 800) images with a 22,000:1 contrast ratio, suitable for various environments including well-lit rooms due to its 3,800 lumens brightness.

Audio

An integrated 10-watt speaker provides room-filling audio. For enhanced sound, connect external speakers to the Audio Out port.
