Safeguards
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
1. Read and understand all instructions before using. Pay particular attention to areas where this
!
symbol
!
is shown.
WARNING – Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
!
Caution – Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result
in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
2. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Do not leave
appliance unattended while in use.
3. Never look directly into the projector lens when the lamp is on. The metal halide lamp produces
a strong light which could damage your eyesight.
!
4. Care must be taken as burns can occur from touching hot parts.
5. Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or if the appliance has been dropped or
damaged — until it has been examined by a qualified serviceman.
!
6. Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled or contact hot surfaces.
7. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating at least equal to that of the
appliance should be used. Cords rated for less amperage than the appliance may overheat.
8. Always unplug appliance from electrical outlet before cleaning and servicing and when not in
use. Grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
!
9. Let appliance cool completely before putting away or when replacing lamp. Loop cord loosely
around appliance when storing.
10. Disconnect this unit from its source of supply before replacing the projection lamp.
11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse this appliance in water or other liquids.
12. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this appliance, but take it to a qualified
technician when service or repair work is required. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric
shock when the appliance is subsequently used.
13. The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause a risk of
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
14. Connect this appliance to a grounded outlet.
!
15. This unit is equipped with optical lenses and should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
16. Keep ventilation openings free of any obstructions.
17. Always remove the lens cap when the projection lamp is on.

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.
Four-Pin Connector S-VHS Cable
Figure 3-6. S-Video Input
Video/Audio Connection
Find the small, circular connector on your camcorder laserdisc player, VCR, or other video source marked
VIDEO OUT, TO MONITOR, or something similar.
Use the 3-conductor video/audio cable and insert the video (white) connector into the video output jack of
your video source device, and the other end into the MP8020’s VIDEO1 or VIDEO2 connector.

3M Multimedia Projector MP8020

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.
