Abstract
A display device receives, from an external device, information set on a settings screen that is displayed on the external device and that allows settings in ranges wider than ranges settable on a settings screen constituting a part of a projected image. The display device then changes settings in accordance with the received information. As a result, a degree of freedom in adjustment of the projected image can be increased.
Claims18
A display device that displays an image by projecting the image, the display device comprising:
- a communication unit configured to communicate with an external device;
- and
- a control unit configured to receive information that has been set on a second settings screen displayed on the external device from the external device via the communication unit, and change settings in accordance with the information, the second settings screen allowing settings within second ranges that are wider than first ranges settable on a first settings screen constituting a part of the projected image.
A method of controlling a display device that displays an image by projecting the image, the method comprising:
- receiving information that has been set on a second settings screen displayed on an external device from the external device via a communication device, the second settings screen allowing settings within second ranges that are wider than first ranges settable on a first settings screen constituting a part of the projected image, and
- changing settings in accordance with the information.
A display device that displays an image by projecting the image, the display device comprising:
- a communication unit configured to communicate with an external device;
- an operation unit that configures settings based on a first settings screen that allows settings within first ranges;
- and
- a control unit for
- receiving information that has been set on a second settings screen displayed on the external device from the external device via the communication unit, and changing settings in accordance with the received information, the second settings screen allowing settings within second ranges that are wider than the first ranges, and
- when settings that do not fall within the first ranges are configured in accordance with the information, displaying a warning screen by projecting the warning screen, or transmitting data for displaying the warning screen on the external device to the external device via the communication unit.
A method of controlling a display device that includes a communication device that communicates with an external device and an operation unit that configures settings based on a first settings screen that allows settings within first ranges, the method comprising:
- receiving information that has been set on a second settings screen displayed on the external device from the external device via the communication device, the second settings screen allowing settings within second ranges that are wider than the first ranges;
- changing settings in accordance with the received information;
- and
- when the information indicates settings that do not fall within the first ranges, either displaying a warning screen, or transmitting data for displaying the warning screen on the external device to the external device via the communication device.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein a program for causing a computer included in a display device that displays an image by projecting the image and comprises a communication device that communicates with an external device to function as:
- a control unit configured to receive information that has been set on a second settings screen displayed on the external device from the external device via the communication unit, and change settings in accordance with the information, the second settings screen allowing settings within second ranges that are wider than first ranges settable on a first settings screen constituting a part of the projected image.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein a program for causing a computer included in a display device that displays an image by projecting the image and comprises a communication device that communicates with an external device and an operation device that configures settings based on a first settings screen that allows settings within first ranges, to function as
- a control unit for
- receiving information that has been set on a second settings screen displayed on the external device from the external device via the communication unit, and changing settings in accordance with the received information, the second settings screen allowing settings within second ranges that are wider than the first ranges, and
- when settings that do not fall within the first ranges are configured in accordance with the information, displaying a warning screen by projecting the warning screen, or transmitting data for displaying the warning screen on the external device to the external device via the communication unit.
