Why Reverse the Image?
Before delving into the technicalities, let’s first understand why reversing the image can be valuable for certain situations. Reversing the image is particularly useful when using a projector in rear projection setups or in situations where the projector is ceiling-mounted with limited control over the placement. By reversing the image, you can ensure that the projected content appears correctly, even when projected from behind or above the projection screen.
Step 1: Accessing the Menu
The first step is to access the menu of your Hitachi projector, where you can find the necessary settings to reverse the image. To do this:
- Ensure that the projector is turned on and connected to a video source.
- Using the remote control or the control panel on the projector, navigate to the “Menu” button.
- Press the “Menu” button to enter the settings menu.
Step 2: Navigating to the Image Settings
Once you have accessed the menu, the next step is to find the image settings section, where you can locate the option for reversing the image. Follow these steps:
- Using the arrow keys on your remote or control panel, navigate to the “Settings” or “Options” section.
- Within the settings, look for an option related to “Image” or “Projection Settings.”
- Select the “Image” or “Projection Settings” option to enter the image adjustment menu.
Step 3: Reversing the Image
Now that you have reached the image adjustment menu, it’s time to reverse the image. Follow these instructions:

- Select the “Reverse Image” or “Image Flip” option.
- Toggle the setting to “On” or “Enabled” to reverse the image.
Step 4: Confirming and Saving Changes
After reversing the image, it’s crucial to confirm the changes and save them to ensure that the setting remains active. Follow these final steps:
- Exit the image adjustment menu by pressing the “Back” or “Exit” button.
- You may be prompted to confirm your changes. If so, select “Yes” or “Confirm” to save the reversed image setting.
- Once you have saved the changes, the image projected by your Hitachi projector should be reversed.
