Projector features / About contents of package

Projector features

This projector is used to project various computer signals as well as NTSC / PAL / SECAM video signals onto a screen. It requires just a little space for installation and gets a large image from short distance.
High Brightness
Newly developed 165W UHB (Ultra High Brightness) lamp gives you a higher brightness image on a screen. The image can be still kept as bright and clean enough for use in bright rooms.
Low Noise
WHISPER mode is equipped for reducing acoustic noise to realize quieter operation. It is perfect for use in low luminance rooms where low noise is more important than brightness.
Compact Body
Even with its many features, this projector is extremely compact and slim,
which gives you more exibility and usability to use it where you want.

Preparations
Putting batteries
WARNING Always handle the batteries with care and use them only as
directed. Improper use may result in battery explosion, cracking or leakage,
which could result in re, injury and/or pollution of the surrounding environment.
• Be sure to use only the batteries specied. Do not use batteries of different
types at the same time. Do not mix a new battery with used one.
• Make sure the plus and minus terminals are correctly aligned when loading a battery.
• Keep a battery away from children and pets.
• Do not recharge, short circuit, solder or disassemble a battery.
• Do not allow a battery in a re or water. Keep batteries in a dark, cool and dry
place.
• Do not give the battery a physical impact.
• If you observe a leakage of a battery, wipe out the ower and then replace a battery. If the ower adheres your body or clothes, rinse well with water
immediately.
• Obey the local laws on disposing a battery.
To use the remote control, please load the batteries. Whenever the remote control starts to malfunction, replace the batteries. If you won’t use the remote control for an extended period, remove the batteries from the remote control and store them in a safe place.

Preparations
Using the remote control
CAUTION Be careful in handling the remote control. Incorrect handling
could cause damage or malfunction.
• Do not drop or otherwise expose the remote control to physical impact.
• Do not get the remote control wet or place it on wet objects.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control and store them in a safe place if you won’t be using the remote control for an extended period.
• Replace the batteries whenever the remote control starts to malfunction.
• When strong lights such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close
range (such as from an inverter uorescent lamp) hit the projector’s remote
sensor, the remote control may not function correctly. Adjust the direction of the projector to keep light from directly hitting the projector’s remote sensor.
The remote control works with the projector’s remote sensor.
• The range of the remote sensor is 3 meters with a 60 degree range (30 degrees to the left and right of the remote sensor).
• Also a remote signal reected in the screen etc. may be available. If it is difcult
to send a remote signal to the sensor directly, please try.
• Since the remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class1 LED), be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote control’s output signal to the projector.

WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
HIGH TEMPERATURE
HIGH PRESSURE
►The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break with a loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn over time. Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of glass to y into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the projector’s vent holes.
About disposal of a lamp • This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put in trash. Dispose of in accord with environmental laws. For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org. (in the US) For product disposal, contact your local government agency or www.eiae.org (in the US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada). For more information, call your dealer.
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unplug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling, so please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.
• Before replacing the lamp, turn the projector off and unplug the power cord, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently. Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the lamp.
• Never unscrew except the appointed (marked by an arrow) screws.
• Do not open the lamp door while the projector is suspended from above. This is dangerous, since if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the shards will fall out when the cover is opened. In addition, working in high places is dangerous, so ask your local dealer to have the lamp replaced even if the bulb is not broken.
• Do not use the projector with the lamp door removed. At the lamp replacing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose screws could result in damage or injury.
Use only the lamp of the specied type.
• If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible that there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens, contact your local dealer or a service representative.
Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.
• If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see the section "Related Messages" and "Regarding the indicator Lamps"), replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not use old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.

When the projector cannot understand the received command
When the projector cannot understand the received command, the error code ‘15H’ is sent back to the computer. Sometimes the projector cannot properly receive the command. In such a case, the command is not executed and the error code ‘15H’ is sent back to the computer. If this error code is returned, send the same command again.
When the projector cannot execute the received command.
When the projector cannot execute the received command, the error code ‘1cH’ + ‘xxxxH’ is sent back to the computer. When the data length is greater than indicated by the data length code, the projector ignore the excess data code. Conversely when the data length is shorter than indicated by the data length code, an error code will be returned to the computer.
NOTE • Operation cannot be guaranteed when the projector receives an undened
command or data.
• Provide an interval of at least 40ms between the response code and any other code.
• The projector outputs test data when the power supply is switched ON, and when the lamp is lit. Ignore this data.
• Commands are not accepted during warm-up.

Intended Use
Before operating this machine, please read this entire manual thoroughly. The 3MTM Multimedia Projectors are designed, built, and tested for use indoors, using 3M lamps, 3M ceiling mount hardware, and nominal local voltages. The use of other replacement lamps, outdoor operation, or different voltages has not been tested and could damage the projector peripheral equip­ment and/or create a potentially unsafe operating condition.
3M Multimedia projectors and Wall Display Systems are designed to operate in a normal ofce environment.
• 16° to 29°C (60° to 85° F)
