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.
Rich Connectivity
This projector has a variety of I/O ports. It can be easily connected to many
signal sources like PC, DVD and so on. The rich connectivity provides you
more options to make your presentation impressive.
Compact Body
Even with its many features, this projector is extremely compact and slim,
which gives you more flexibility and usability to use it where you want.

Setting up
Connecting your devices
CAUTION ►Turn off all devices prior to connecting them to the projector.
Attempting to connect a live device to the projector may generate extremely
loud noises or other abnormalities that may result in malfunction and/or damage
to the device and/or projector.
►Use the accessory cable or a designated-type cable for the connection.
Some cables have to be used with core set. A too long cable may cause a
certain picture degradation. Please consult with your dealer for details. For
cables that have a core only at one end, connect the core to the projector.
►Make sure that you connect devices to the correct port. Incorrect connection
may result in malfunction and/or damage to the device and/or projector.
NOTE • Whenever attempting to connect a laptop computer to the projector, be sure
to activate the laptop’s RGB external image output (set the laptop to CRT display or to
simultaneous LCD and CRT display). For details on how this is done, please refer
instruction manual of the corresponding laptop computer.
• Secure the screws on the connectors and tighten.
• Some computers may have multiple display screen modes. Use of some of these
modes will not be possible with this projector.
• For some RGB signal modes, the optional Mac adapter is necessary.
• When the image resolution is changed on a computer, depending on an input,
automatic adjust function may take some time and may not be completed. In this case,
you may not be able to see a check box to select “Yes/No” for the new resolution on
Windows. Then the resolution will go back to the original. It might be recommended to
use other CRT or LCD monitors to change the resolution.
About Plug-and-Play capability
Plug-and-Play is a system composed of the computer, its operating system and
peripheral equipment (i.e. display devices). This projector is compatible with VESA DDC
2B. Plug-and-Play can be achieved by connecting this projector to computers that are
VESA DDC (display data channel) compatible.
• Please take advantage of this function by connecting the accessory RGB cable to the
RGB IN1 port (DDC 2B compatible). Plug-and-Play may not work properly if any other
type of connection is attempted.
• Please use the standard drivers in your computer as this projector is a Plug-and-Play
monitor.

Remote control
Using the remote control
CAUTION ►Be careful in handling the remote control.
• 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. Doing so may
result in malfunction.
• 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 fluorescent lamp), hit the projector’s remote
sensor, the remote control may cause to function. 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.
approx. 3 meters
30º
30º
• 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 reflected in the screen etc. may be available. If it is difficult
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.
