Caution
To prevent damage to equipment, all power to the MP8020 and input sources must be turned OFF during cable hook up.
The power cord (Figure 3-3) is detachable from the projector and has different connection plugs on each end. Plug the female end into the power cord terminal on the projector and the male end into a properly grounded electrical outlet.
Figure 3-3. Connecting the Power Cord
RGB (Computer) Input Connection
There are two input jacks available for connecting either desktop or laptop computers. Find the cable that fits your computer type. The MP8020 comes with two computer input cables. The first cable (Figure 3-4) fits IBM PC and compatible VGA video systems, and the other cable (Figure 3-5) fits on the end of the first cable and adapts it to fit AppleMAC II computers.
Figure 3-4. IBM PC Computer Figure 3-5. MAC II Computer
S-V ideo Connection
Some video devices can generate S-VHS video, or S-Video (Y/C). The MP8020 will accept this signal through the S-VIDEO1 or S-VIDEO2 connectors. The S-VHS cable has identical round four-pin connectors on either end (Figure 3-6). Connect one end to the S-Video jack on the input source device, and the other end to the S-VIDEO1 or S-VIDEO2 terminal on the MP8020. Remember to connect the audio cables for sound output.

Next, find the AUDIO OUT terminals on your VCR or other audio source. Insert the left and right audio cable connectors (Figure 3-7) to the input source, and connect the other end to the AUDIO-L and AUDIO-R terminals on the MP8020.
Note
The MP8020 projector is not a stereo device. Stereo sound channeled through it becomes monophonic due to an internal sound mixer that converts stereo to mono.
Figure 3-7. 3-Conductor Video/Audio Input Cable
If you are giving a multimedia presentation that is complete with stereophonic sound, then you may want to consider connecting your audio source to a high-quality stereo system. Of course, if you route your audio
cables this way, the MP8020 audio controls
or buttons will not function.
BNC Connection
The MP8020 projector has a single BNC connector. The BNC cable, available at most electronic stores, can be used for video input. Connect one end to the BNC jack on the input source device, and the other end to the BNC jack (terminal 2 only) on the MP8020. Remember to connect the audio cables (RCA type connectors) for sound output.
Mouse Receiver Connection
The MP8020 remote control receiver can be used to control the mouse button functions on your computer. The “Mouse Receiver” must be installed for this feature to function. The mouse receiver can be connected to either a serial port (Figure 3-8) or mouse port (Figure 3-9) on your computer. For either serial port (Figure 3-10) or mouse port (Figure 3-11) connections, the computer mouse can be hooked into the loop allowing both the computer mouse and MP8020 mouse buttons to function. Always remember to power down
your computer before making any cable connections.
Note
Serial computer mice with a large power requirement (20 mA or greater) may not be compatibile.

3-2. Projector Set Up
The meeting room is your operating environment and any stray light hitting the projection screen will become glare. It is best to use a meeting room without wide-open windows. If there are “light stripes” from venetian blinds, try to find a viewing area that’s away from them – and remember, the light stripes will move as the hour changes.
Ambient Light
Whenever you have a choice, light the room from the rear, away from the projection screen. The MP8020 has a brightness adjustment to achieve the best image possible.
Distance to Viewing Screen
The MP8020 can be used in a small or large meeting room to project a quality image from 46 cm (18 inches) to 762 cm (300 inches) in size. The distance between the projector and the viewing screen (see “a” in Figure 3-15) and the zoom lense setting (minimum to maxium) will determine the size of the projected image. Refer to the table in Section 9-2 to determine how far away from the viewing screen you need to place the projector to fill the screen with the projected image.
Remember that increasing the projector-to-screen distance also decreases the image’s brightness dramatically. In other words, as the image grows larger, it also grows dimmer.
For best results, experiment to find the right combination of projector-to-screen distance and room lighting.
Ceiling Mount Considerations
An optional ceiling mount bracket (Figure 3-12) is required to install the MP8020 from the ceiling. For this type of installation, the image must be inverted. Refer to section 4-4 Inverting the Image for more details.

Rear Projection
A semi-transparent screen (Figure 3-13) can be used to project an image and view it from the backside of the viewing screen. For this type of installation, the image must be inverted. Refer to section 4-4 Inverting the Image for more details.

Projector to Viewing Screen Alignment
The size of the projection screen and the distance of the projector to the screen are important considerations for determining the best placement of the projector. After the best projector to screen distance has been determined, the position of the projection screen in relation to the center of the projection lens must be considered.
a = Distance to viewing screen
90°

90°
b
Figure 3-15. Side View
b = Center of lens to bottom of projected image
a
Measured from the center of the projection lens (Figure 3-14), the projected image should be split equally left to right. For best results, rotate the projector until the image on the projection screen is perpendicular (90°) from the lens.
Measured from the center of the projection lens, the top to bottom projected image (Figure 3-15) is projected with most of the image above the center of the lens and a small amount below the center of the lens. The position of the projected image to the center of the lens is an important consideration for the vertical placement of the projection screen.
Use the table below to calculate the approximate distance (refer to “b” in Figure 3-15) from the center of the lens to the bottom of the projected image. Both normal and ceiling mount applications are affected by this distance.

Section 5: Remote Control
5-1. How to Operate the Remote Control
The remote control keypad (Figure 5-1) has the same buttons as the projector control panel, plus additional buttons to control different projector and mouse functions (mouse receiver must be connected). To use the remote control, aim the remote toward the projection screen and press the desired button. The remote signal will bounce off of the projection screen (Figure 5-4) and back to the sensor on the MP8020 or mouse receiver.
Note
For best results, always use fresh batteries in the remote control. If all of the buttons illuminate and do not shut off after 5 seconds, the batteries may need to be replaced. See “Replacing the Batteries.”
Remote Control Buttons
The remote control transmitter has two operating conditions that are indicated by a red LED lamp. If the LED is OFF, the remote is in the NORMAL mode of operation and will control normal projector and mouse button functions. If the LED is FLASHING, the remote is in the MENU mode of operation and will control the trackball used to make changes to on-screen menus.
Note
When the MP8020 projector is in the MENU mode (on-screen Menu is being displayed), the remote control must also be in the MENU mode (LED is flashing) or the remote control buttons will not operate properly. Press and hold the MENU button for two seconds to switch the remote to the MENU mode.
LED is Off – the remote is in the Normal mode. When a normal
video or computer image is being displayed and the LED is off, the remote buttons control normal projector functions (volume, focus, etc.) and normal mouse functions (left/right, trackball, drag) for the computer (RGB) input source.
LED is FLASHING – the remote is in the MENU mode. When an on-screen menu is being displayed and the LED is flashing, the remote trackball controls the cursor movement for making changes to the menu. The LED will automatically stop flashing and return to the normal mode after five seconds of inactivity.

Mouse Receiver
Set the mouse receiver on top of the MP8020 projector with the sensor facing the projection screen. Point the remote control at the projection screen to bounce the signal off of the screen and back to the mouse receiver.
Note
The mouse receiver must be positioned so that the remote control signal can enter the sensor. You can either bounce the signal off of the projection screen or rotate the mouse receiver to aim the remote directly at it. Aiming the remote directly at the receiver will increase the effective signal distance.
For best results, always use fresh batteries in the remote control transmitter.
