Hi Ron,
This video explains how the grid works and how to change the images
https://www.artograph.com/projectors/led1000info/led-1000-quickstart-step-5/
For you to adjust from square to retangle:
Select “Grid” on the remote; press left or right arrows to select desired grid and grid color
based on the projected surface
The grids may be projected alone as a template to aid in alignment and as a guide when painting, drawing or lettering. The grids can also be superimposed over an image to aid in alignment and composing. Load image from digital source. Push the “Grid” button on remote to select or change grids and color.
Hope this helps.
Rehards,
Shelsgh

Hello. I ran across your website while I was researching a fault I am having with a Casio projector. I am a service technician, and have been working on projectors for a long time (15+ years). I am authorized and trained by Viewsonic and Epson, so I have a reasonable knowledge about what I am doing.
The projector is a Casio XJ-S10 DLP. It came in with fault in the optical engine. This projector has powered focus and zoom, but would not focus. When inspecting the optical engine, I found one of the tabs on one of the movable lenses was broken off. Since the engine is so expensive, and not economical to replace, I used epoxy to secure the broken tab. It worked quite well, as the lens now has full motion.
Here is the problem. After reassembling and testing, using a computer VGA port (I use this on all the projectors I work on, and it has never failed to work correctly) I have found that the system EDID will detect the projector and set the resolution to 1080. However, it not only seems to be interlaced, but the colour is green, almost like a colour is missing, but all the colours are present. The menus look fine. So, I have a flickering image that’s a washed out green colour. If I change the resolution to 1280 x 1024 or any assorted other resolutions, the picture is perfect. I have checked the specifications for this projector and it says it supports 1080p. Since I have never worked on this model before, and I cannot find any information on the ‘net regarding this issue, I don’t know if this is a problem with this particular projector, of if it is a common issue with all of these model of projectors. Please note that the projector only has a VGA port, no HDMI or other video port types. I have never seen an fault quite like this. I will check back here over the next few days. I really hope you might have an idea I can follow up on as I am pretty much out of ideas. If you can’t help, well thanks for you time anyway.
