Before Using the Remote Control
Using the Remote Control and Remote Operating
Range
Using the Remote Control
The remote control is used in the following way.
PROCEDURE
1
Set the [R/C] switch of the remote control to "ON".
EMP-7850 User’s Guide
12
TIP
• Do not allow sunlight or light from fluorescent lamps to shine directly onto the projector's remote control light-receiving areas, otherwise it may interfere with the reception of signals from the remote control.
• When not using the remote control, set the [R/C] switch on the remote control to "OFF". If you leave the [R/C] switch at "ON", it will consume battery power.
• If a button on the remote control is pressed down for more than 1 minute while the [R/C] switch is at "ON", the signal for that button operation will stop being transmitted (the remote control will change to sleep mode). The purpose of this is to prevent the batteries from being consumed due to something being placed on top of the remote control.
When the button is released, normal remote control operation will resume.

If the images are being projected onto a screen that is higher than the position of the projector, extend the front adjustable foot to tilt the
If the images are being projected onto a screen that is lower than the position of the projector, lift up the back of the projector to tilt it.
When the projector is tilted in this way, it may cause keystone distortion to appear in the images. If this happens, you can use the keystone correction function to correct this distortion.
EMP-7850 User’s Guide
43
When projecting from the side of the screen
If the projector cannot be set up directly in front of the screen, you can project images at a horizontal angle to the screen. If keystone distortion appears in the images, you can use the projector's "H-Keystone" and
"Quick Corner" functions to correct this keystone distortion.
EMP-7850 User’s Guide
44
Adjusting the Screen Image
Adjusting the Feet
The front adjustable foot and the rear adjustable feet can be extended and retracted to adjust the tilt of the projector to a maximum of 12º upwards and 4º downwards.
TIP
If you use the front adjustable foot and the rear adjustable feet to adjust the tilt of the projector, it may cause keystone distortion to appear in the projected images. If this happens, the Auto Keystone function will operate to automatically project images without keystone
distortion.
PROCEDURE
While pulling the foot adjust lever at the front of the projector, lift up the front of the projector to extend the front adjustable foot.
Extend the front adjustable foot until the desired angle is obtained, and then release the foot adjust lever.
To retract the front adjustable foot, gently push down on the projector while pulling the foot adjust lever.
TIP
If the projector is tilted vertically or horizontally, turn the bases of the rear adjustable feet to make fine adjustments to the height of the projector. When the projector is tilted horizontally, the automatic keystone correction may not be carried out correctly.

Manually Correcting Keystone Distortion
This projector is equipped with an automatic keystone correction function that detects the vertical angle of the projector during projection and automatically corrects vertical keystone distortion. If you would like to make further fine adjustments after automatic keystone correction has been carried out, or when the projector is tilted horizontally, you can carry out keystone correction manually.
TIP
If the projector is tilted within a range of approximately 30º up or down, keystone correction is carried out automatically. If the projector is tilted within a range of approximately 40º up or down or
20º to the left or right, manual keystone correction can be carried out.
However, the applicable angles will change under the following conditions.
• If the projector has been tilted both horizontally and vertically
• If an optional projection lens has been fitted
• When the zoom is set to "W"
EMP-7850 User’s Guide
45
This projector is equipped with the following two keystone correction functions. Use whichever function is appropriate for the keystone distortion that appears.
• Auto Keystone/H/V-Keystone
Automatic keystone automatically corrects keystone distortion when the projected images are vertically distorted.
H/V-Keystone can be used to make fine adjustments to the results of automatic keystone correction and to correct horizontal keystone distortion.
The keystone correction function lets you easily correct keystone distortion that has occurred after moving the projector, simply by using buttons on the projector's control panel.
See "Automatic keystone correction"
horizontal correction"
, "Height Correction"
• Quick Corner:
This correction function is used when both horizontal and vertical keystone distortion occurs in the projection area to adjust the projection area so that it fits the screen exactly.
Adjusting the Screen Image
TIP
• The "Auto Keystone", "H/V-Keystone" and "Quick Corner" functions cannot both be used together to correct keystone distortion.
If you use one function to correct keystone distortion, any correction that has been applied using the other function will be cancelled.
• The larger the angle of tilt, the poorer the focus of the contours in the projected images will become.
• If a large amount of keystone correction is applied, fine details such as text characters and lines may go out of focus.
• Keystone corrections that have been applied using the keystone correction functions are memorised even when the projector's power is turned off. If you have changed the projection position or angle, you will need to repeat the correction procedure.
• "H-Keystone" and "Height" cannot be used at the same time.
• When keystone correction is carried out, the projected images will become smaller. Use the zoom function to adjust the size of the images if necessary.
• If the images become uneven in appearance after keystone correction is carried out, decrease the sharpness.
EMP-7850 User’s Guide
46
Automatic keystone correction
When the projector has been tilted vertically, automatic keystone correction is carried out so that images with no distortion are projected.
Automatic keystone correction is carried out approximately one second after the projector is set up and projection starts. A vertical keystone correction gauge appears on the screen while automatic adjustment is in progress.
TIP
• Automatic keystone correction is not carried out if "Rear Proj." or
"Ceiling" in the "Advanced1" menu is set to "ON", or if the projection area has been corrected manually using the "Quick
Corner" function.
• If you would like to make further fine adjustments after automatic keystone correction has been carried out, or if the projector is tilted horizontally, you can carry out keystone correction manually.
• If you do not want automatic keystone correction to be carried out, change the "Auto Keystone" setting in the "H/V-Keystone" submenu of the "Keystone" command in the "Setting" menu to "OFF".
Adjusting the Screen Image
Vertical correction and horizontal correction
Vertical correction and horizontal correction can be carried out using either the projector's control panel or the configuration menus. This procedure explains how to use the projector's control panel to correct keystone distortion.
For adjustment using the configuration menus:
"Keystone" - "H/V-Keystone"
If you use the horizontal correction function when height correction adjustment has already been carried out, the height correction adjustment will be cancelled.
TIP

Adjusting the Image Quality
The quality of the projected images can be adjusted as follows.
Projecting Easy-to-see Images Without a Screen
(Wall Shot)
When the Wall Shot function is used, images can be projected without loss of original colour even onto surfaces such as blackboards and coloured wall surfaces which are being used instead of a screen. For example, if projecting onto a green blackboard, the projected images would normally appear greenish and be very difficult to see. The Wall Shot function uses a sensor to measure the condition of the projection surface and automatically adjusts the colour of the projected images based on these measurements.
The Wall Shot function also allows shading to be adjusted. If projecting onto a screen that is located near a window, the Wall Shot function can be used to obtain clear images when they might otherwise appear faded.
TIP
• Wall Shot can be used for adjustment if the projection distance is within approximately 80–1000 cm (2.6–32.8 ft.). However, this distance will vary depending on the condition of the projected surface, for instance if the projection surface is an extremely reflective surface such as a whiteboard, or if it is a highly nonreflective surface such as a dark wall.
• The sensor may not be able to correctly measure the condition of the projection surface if you are projecting on a striped or patterned wall. In this event, Wall Shot may not be able to correctly adjust the color of the projected images.
EMP-7850 User’s Guide
51
PROCEDURE
The Wall Shot function can be operated using either the remote control or the projector's control panel.

Once the measurement is finished and colour correction is complete, the images will be projected in the corrected condition.
To cancel the correction, press the [Wall Shot] button while
"Wall Shot ON" is being displayed on the screen so that "Wall
Shot OFF" is selected.
TIP
• When the projector's power is turned off, images will be projected next time with the status set to "Wall Shot OFF". However, the correction values that were obtained by the previous measurement operation will be stored even when the power is turned off.
If projecting in the same location as before, you can retrieve the colour correction values that were used previously (the five seconds required for readjustment will not be necessary).
The status will change as follows each time the [Wall Shot] button is pressed.

The relative brightness of the light and dark areas of an image can be increased or decreased in order to make text and graphics stand out more clearly, or to make them appear softer. Adjusting this particular property of an image is called "contrast adjustment".
Use this procedure to cool a projector lamp that is hot from use. Cool- down happens automatically when the [Power] button is pressed on the projector or on the remote control to turn the projector off. Do not unplug the projector power cable whilst it is cooling down. If the lamp does not cool down properly, heat from the lamp is trapped inside the projector, potentially shortening the life of the lamp and causing projector failure.
DFP
DHCP
Dolby Digital
DPOF
DVI
Abbreviation for Digital Flat Panel. Refers to a standard method for digital transmission of video signals.
Abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol automatically assigns an IP address to a computer connected to a network.
A sound format developed by Dolby Laboratories. Normal stereo is a 2-channel format which uses two speakers. Dolby Digital is a 6-channel (5.1channel) system which adds to this a centre speaker two rear speakers and a sub-woofer.
Abbreviation of Digital Print Order Format, which is a format used to record infomation concerning the printing of photographs taken with a digital camera (which images to print, how many copies, etc.) to recordable media, such as a memory card.
Abbreviation for Digital Visual Interface. Refers to a standard method for digital transmission of video signals.
DVI is a standard which has also been applied to digital household electronic equipment other than computers. It allows images to be transmitted at higher resolutions than for DFP, and also includes a digital signal encoding function.

Sync.
(Synchronization)
A type of video signal with a resolution of 1280 (horizontal) × 1024 (vertical) dots which is used by IBM PC/AT-compatible computers.
The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images will not be of a good quality. The process of matching the phases of these signals (the relative position of the crests and troughs in the signal) is called
"synchronisation". If the signals are not synchronized, problems such as flickering, blurriness and horizontal interference can occur.
Tracking
The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images will not be of a good quality. The process of matching the frequency of these signals (the number of crests in the signal) is called "tracking". If tracking is not carried out correctly, wide vertical stripes will appear in the projected images.
Trap IP address This is the IP address of the messaged computer used for error notification in SNMP.
USB
UXGA
VGA
A video signal which has the luminance component and colour component separated in order to provide better image quality.
It refers to images which consist of two independent signals: Y (luminance signal), and C (colour signal).

List of ESC/VP21 Commands
Command List
When a power ON command is sent to the projector, the power for the projector turns on. When the projector is in a command ready state, it returns the "3Ah" (:) code.
Furthermore, when command processing is complete, the projector also returns a ":" code.
The ":" code status can be used to determine whether the projector is ready or busy. If command processing terminates with an error, an error message is output and then the ":" code is sent.
