Owner’s Manual

Features and Design

This Multimedia Projector is designed with the most advanced technology for portability, durability, and ease of use. It uses built-in multimedia features, a palette of 1.07 billion colors, and matrix liquid crystal display (LCD) technology.

Short Throw & Wide-Range Zoom Lens		Automatic Slide Shutter

The 2x Short Throw & Wide-Range Zoom Lens is capable of throwing a 100” diagonal image from a distance of 9.8’ (3.0 m) to 20.0’ (6.1 m).

The automatic slide shutter protects the lens from dust and scratches. It opens and closes automatically as you press the POWER ON/STAND-BY button.

Lens Shift

The Lens Shift function provides a greater installation flexibility. You can use the projector at desired places without images being distorted (see page 14).

Color Management

The Color management function allows you to adjust the details of picture colors to suit your preference and viewing environments (see pages 32 – 33).

Wide Selection of Image Modes

You can select an ideal image mode for the viewing environment or for your desired picture quality (see page 27). The five different kinds of images of your choice can also be stored (see pages 28 – 33).

Power Management

The Power management function reduces power consumption and maintains the lamp life (see page 41).

Auto Iris

The integration of the lamp aperture enhances the contrast and depth of the projected image.

Compatibility

The projector accepts signals from multiple sources: computers, analog TV systems (PAL, SECAM, NTSC, NTSC4.43, PAL-M, and PAL-N), component video, S-video, RGB scart, and HDMI.

Logo

The Logo function allows you to customize the screen logo (see page 40). You can capture an image for the screen logo and use it for the starting-up display or between presentations.

Lamp Control

The brightness of the projection lamp can be selected (see pages 23, 29).

Simple Computer System Setting

The Multi-scan system of the projector conforms to almost all computer output signals quickly (see page 26).

16 : 9 Wide Screen

The wide LCD panels with 1920 x 1080 resolution (16:9 aspect ratio) can project the image from component video signals such as DVD players and HDTV devices in full screen.

Multi-language Menu Display

Operation menu is available in 16 languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish, Finnish, Polish, Hungarian, Romanian, Russian, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese (see page 37).

Two HDMI Terminals

Adjustable Feet

Projection angle can be adjusted up to 6.5 degrees with the adjustable feet.

1	Rotate the adjustable feet and tilt the projector to the proper
	height; to raise the feet, rotate the both feet clockwise.
2	To lower or to retract the adjustable feet, rotate the both feet
	counterclockwise.

Installation

Connecting the AC Power Cord

This projector uses nominal input voltages of 100 – 120 V or 200

– 240 V AC and it automatically selects a correct input voltage. It is designed to work with the single-phase power systems having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not plug into any other type of power system.

If you are not sure of the type of power being supplied, consult your authorized dealer or service station.

Connect the projector with all peripheral equipment before turning it on.

CAUTION

The AC outlet must be near this equipment and must be easily accessible.

Note:

Connect the AC power cord (supplied) to the projector.

For safety, unplug the AC power cord when the projector is not in use.

When the projector is connected to an outlet with the AC power cord and the Main On/Off switch is on, it is in stand-by mode and consumes a little electric power. Turn the Main On/ Off switch off when the projector is not in use.

NOTE ON THE POWER CORD

AC power cord must meet the requirements of the country where you use the projector.

Confirm the AC plug type with the chart below and proper AC power cord must be used.

If the supplied AC power cord does not match your AC outlet, contact your sales dealer.
