5. Using On-Screen Menu Selecting Aspect Ratio [ASPECT RATIO] The term "aspect ratio" refers to the ratio of width to height of a projected image. The projector automatically determines the incoming signal and displays it in its appropriate aspect ratio. • This table shows typical resolutions and aspect ratios that most computers support. Resolution VGA 640 × 480 SVGA 800 × 600 XGA 1024 × 768 WXGA 1280 × 768 WXGA 1280 × 800 WXGA+ 1440 × 900 SXGA 1280 × 1024 SXGA+ 1400 × 1050 UXGA 1600 × 1200 Aspect Ratio 4:3 4:3 4:3 15:9 16:10 16:10 5:4 4:3 4:3 Options AUTO 4:3 16:9 15:9 16:10 WIDE ZOOM (M350X/M300X/M260X/ M230X) LETTERBOX (M300W/M260W) NATIVE Function The projector will automatically determine the incoming signal and display it in its aspect ratio. (→ next page) The projector may erroneously determine the aspect ratio depending on its signal. If this occurs, select the appropriate aspect ratio from the following. The image is displayed in 4:3 aspect ratio. The image is displayed in 16:9 aspect ratio. The image is displayed in 15:9 aspect ratio. The image is displayed in 16:10 aspect ratio. The image is stretched left and right. Parts of the displayed image are cropped at the left and right edges and therefore not visible. The image of a letterbox signal is stretched equally in the horizontal and vertical directions to fit the screen. Parts of the displayed image are cropped at the top and bottom edges and therefore not visible. The projector displays the current image in its true resolution when the incoming computer signal has a lower resolution than the projector's native resolution. [Example 1] When the incoming signal with the resolution of 800 × 600 is displayed on the M350X/M300X/ M260X/M230X: [Example 2] When the incoming signal with the resolution of 800 × 600 is displayed on the M300W/M260W: NOTE: • When a non-computer signal is displayed, the [NATIVE] is not available. • When a signal with a higher resolution than the projector's native resolution is displayed, [NATIVE] is not available. 73

AUTO
The projector will automatically determine the incoming signal and display it in its aspect
ratio. (

)
The projector may erroneously determine the aspect ratio depending on its signal. If this
occurs, select the appropriate aspect ratio from the following.
4:3
The image is displayed in 4:3 aspect ratio.
16:9
The image is displayed in 16:9 aspect ratio.
15:9
The image is displayed in 15:9 aspect ratio.
16:10
The image is displayed in 16:10 aspect ratio.
WIDE ZOOM
(M350X/M300X/M260X/
M230X)
The image is stretched left and right.
Parts of the displayed image are cropped at the left and right edges and therefore not
visible.
LETTERBOX
(M300W/M260W)
The image of a letterbox signal is stretched equally in the horizontal and vertical directions
to fit the screen. Parts of the displayed image are cropped at the top and bottom edges
and therefore not visible.
NATIVE
The projector displays the current image in its true resolution when the incoming computer
signal has a lower resolution than the projector’s native resolution.
[Example 1]
When the incoming sig-
nal with the resolution of 800 × 600
is displayed on the M350X/M300X/
M260X/M230X:
[Example 2]
When the incoming sig-
nal with the resolution of 800 × 600 is
displayed on the M300W/M260W:
NOTE:
• When a non-computer signal is displayed, the [NATIVE] is not available.
• When a signal with a higher resolution than the projector’s native resolution is displayed, [NATIVE]
is not available.
