HDMI CEC

HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) allows users to control multiple HD devices that support CEC with a single remote control, simplifying operation by eliminating the need for multiple remotes.

2. Navigate the projector's menu: Choose SETTING > OPTION > HDMI CEC > Device List.
3. The projector will search for and list compatible CEC-enabled devices. Select the desired device from the list.

Note: Ensure CEC is enabled on both the projector and the connected device.

Image Adjustment

Keystone Adjustment

The Keystone adjustment corrects trapezoidal distortion, which occurs when the projector is not perfectly perpendicular to the screen. Adjust the Keystone dial until the projected image is rectangular and clear. An incorrect adjustment is shown with a ❌, while a correct adjustment is shown with a ✓.

Focus Adjustment

The Focus adjustment ensures the projected image is sharp. Turn the Focus dial until the image is clear and readable. A blurry image is indicated with a ❌, and a sharp, clear image is indicated with a ✓.

Ceiling Mount Installation

This projector is compatible with most universal wall mounts, which are sold separately.

1. Carefully remove the four rubber feet from the bottom of the projector.
2. Access the projector's menu by pressing the MENU (☰) button. Navigate to PICTURE > Projection Mode. Select the "ceiling mounted" option to invert the image, ensuring it displays correctly when mounted upside down.
