The projector may be connected in various ways to different equipment. The following sections describe in detail how to connect to these systems.
See the illustration on the rear of the quick set-up card on how the various system parts connect together.
Be aware of static electricity that may build up in the dry season and when operating on synthetic carpets. Discharge any static electricity by touching a metallic surface before you start.
Place the projector on a table at a suitable distance to the projection screen. Select a screen with good reflectivity and avoid direct sunlight shining in. Place the projector so that the image is visible to the whole audience, and so that the unit does not obstruct the view. The projector is supplied with long cables for high flexibility in placement.
Various cables are supplied or optionally available to connect to different sources. Follow the list below in numerical order for a trouble-free set-up!
1. SWITCH OFF. Switch off all equipment before making all the
connections.
2. COMPUTER GRAPHICS ADAPTER. Computer graphics adapters use
different connectors depending on the actual computer system in use. Connection to the projector is made through a basic SVGA cable and appropriate adapters.
PC. Use the SVGA cable directly to connect the graphics port
of the PC to the COMPUTER connector on the projector. If needed, connect your monitor cable to the free branch on the SVGA cable.
MAC. Use the MAC adapters, as marked, on the computer end
of the SVGA cable to adapt to the graphics-port connector and monitor connector on the MAC.
NEC. Use the optional NEC adapters, as marked, on the
computer end of the SVGA cable to adapt to the graphics-port connector and monitor connector on the NEC.
12

USER GUIDE SVGA DLP PROJECTOR
3. VIDEO. Video connects through different interfaces, depending on the
type of equipment and quality level of the video signal.
COMPOSITE VIDEO. This is the most frequently used video
connection. Use the AV cable (supplied) to connect between the yellow phono (also known as ‘RCA’ or ‘cinch’) connector on the video source and the yellow VIDEO input connector on the projector.
The AV cable also provides connection to stereo sound. The stereo jack connects to the AUDIO input connector on the projector and the red and white phono connectors on the video source.
SUPER VIDEO. Use the optionally available S-VIDEO cable to
connect to the video source. S-VIDEO may give a better quality image than composite video.
Use the AV cable for sound connection as described above.
SCART ADAPTER. Some video sources are provided with the
SCART adapter for video and audio output. The SCART adapter (supplied) provides connection to the AV cable.
RGB VIDEO. Some high end video sources have component
red, green and blue video outputs for a best possible image. Some systems use BNC type connectors, other systems use the older CGA or the VGA connector. Contact your dealer for an adapter that is suitable for your source. Use the AV cable for stereo sound connection.
4. MOUSE. To enable mouse control from the remote control, a
connection is made using a mouse cable and various adapters. Connect the cable directly to the MOUSE connector on the projector. Connect the appropriate adapter to the free end of the mouse cable at the computer end as described below.
SERIAL (RS 232). Use the serial PC adapter with a Y-split
branch for the local computer mouse. The serial adapter is fitted with a 9 pin DSUB connector. Use an extra 9 to 25 pin adapter (available from your dealer) if your computer has a 25 pin serial connector. Connect your computer mouse to the free branch of the adapter if desired. With some computers, the
13
Page 14
USER GUIDE SVGA DLP PROJECTOR
branched adapter may not work. For this purpose, an optional straight serial adapter is available.
PS/2. Use the PS/2 adapter that connects directly to your
computer mouse port. Running the computer mouse in parallel is not possible, unless your computer itself has provision for two mice simultaneously. You may consider using the above serial adapter and run your mouse on the serial port instead to be able to run your local mouse in parallel. This will require a different mouse driver setting. Please consult your computer documentation or local dealer for details.
MAC. Use the MAC mouse adapter to connect to the mouse
port on your MAC computer.
5. MAINS POWER. Connect the mains cord to the projector and all other
equipment in the set-up.

USER GUIDE SVGA DLP PROJECTOR
9 CEILING MOUNTING
The projector is prepared for ceiling mounting. As opposed to desktop use (most tables are approx. 80 cm tall, are flat and have a hard surface finish), ceilings vary in height and material. Also considerations must be made with respect to signal and power wiring.
9.1 SELECTING A MOUNT
Various mounting systems are available from different sources. Contact your dealer for further details or consult vendor catalogs.
Be sure that the vendor has tested the mount with this specific projector for operational safety.
Check that the mounting brackets fit the integral M4 screw mounts (threaded inserts) of the projector, and that the ventilation slots are not blocked.
Avoid using screws that penetrates more than 5 mm into the screw mounts, and do not overtighten the screws as this may cause damage to internal parts of the projector.
9.2 MOUNTING IN THE CEILING
An improperly mounted projector is a potential danger to people and equipment. A projector and mount falling down may cause personal injury and material damage. Such damage caused by bad workmanship in mounting and operation may lead to legal action and should be avoided.
Avoid ceiling mounting of the projector in areas of frequent or probable earth quakes.
When fixing the mount in the ceiling, be sure to check the ceiling material and if it will hold the total weight of the mount and the projector. Look for wood, steel beams or concrete that will secure a good and lasting fixture. Avoid plaster or other fragile materials that do not have sufficient structural properties. Follow the detailed instructions supplied with the ceiling mount for proper mounting and operation.
25
Page 26
USER GUIDE SVGA DLP PROJECTOR
After having mounted the projector in the ceiling, test if the holding force is sufficient by adding a load to the mount double the weight of the combined projector and mount. The mount should hold this extra weight with no sign of fatigue and with no sign of mounting screws loosening.
9.3 WIRING
Ceiling mounted projectors require long signal and power wires. The signals should be wired using high quality coaxial cable. The cables
usually need to be customized. Some vendors have specialized in this field. Contact your dealer for further detail.
If the signal cables run over a longer distance from the source to the projector, a line buffer (distribution amplifier) may be needed (available from third party vendors).
For potential fire reasons, the power wiring should be separately switched so that the projector can be switched off completely when not in use. The ON/OFF on the remote control only suspends operation of the projector without switching off completely.

10 YOUR PROJECTOR IN DETAIL
The projector is designed from the ground up to be a compact, durable, bright and versatile device that is suitable for use in various indoors projection applications.
International mandatory regulations are employed, including the rigorous European CE and American UL and FCC standards that cover safety and radio interference issues.
Product packaging is by environmentally friendly materials that are recyclable and that do not emit any toxic fumes if combusted. The ‘RESY’ and ‘Grüne Punkt’ marks are referenced (with ID numbers), indicating that the proper fees are already paid for controlled return of packaging material.
To allow for flexible operation and installation, the unit may be operated from the tabletop, ceiling mounted or in a rear-projection arrangement. Safe thermal operation is secured through a temperature controlled, well dimensioned cooling system that is minimizing fan noise and stray light.
Compatibility is wide, including most popular computer sources from VGA (640x480 expanded) to XGA (1024x768 compressed) resolution as well as all international video standards (NTSC, PAL and SECAM) and video formats (composite video, super video and RGB video).
A wide mains voltage operating range is employed, and connection is through the internationally recognized IEC connector. The user guide and menu system are multi-lingual.
The following chapters detail various features of your projector that may be of interest.

USER GUIDE SVGA DLP PROJECTOR
10.1 SLB - SMALL, LIGHT AND BRIGHT
The projector was designed to be the ultimate portable projector. The advanced, miniaturized optical design and the use of a relatively low
power, high efficiency illumination system combined with optimalized electronics has yielded a very compact, lightweight projector.
10.2 DMD TECHNOLOGY
The light valve technology employed in the projector is based on a small Digital Micromirror Device (DMD). The DMD is basically an integrated circuit chip covered with a large number of minute mirrors, one for each picture element (pixel). These tiny mirrors may be actuated digitally by electrostatic force individually at high speed. This enables the formation of a full color gamut of 16.7 million colors perceived by the eye. It is actually the eye that ‘integrates’ the digitally generated full color image into what is perceived as a continuous (analog) set of colors.
10.3 DLP OPTICAL SYSTEM
The DMD chip is part of the Digital Light Processing (DLP), which is the complete optical system from illumination lamp all the way to projection lens that enables the projection of high quality, digital images.
In the DLP, the light from the illumination lamp is directed onto the DMD. Light is then reflected off each mirror through a rotating color wheel that sequences between red, green and blue in order to form a full color image. The image is then projected by the projection lens onto the screen.
The projection lens has motorized zoom and focus control available to the user in order to be able to select a suitable magnification (image size) at a given projection distance, and to adjust for a sharp image.
10.4 TRACKBALL REMOTE CONTROL
This device enables both set-up of the projector before use and control both of the projector and the computer mouse pointer during operation.
The mouse functionality duplicates the local computer mouse without the need for any special software drivers.

USER GUIDE SVGA DLP PROJECTOR
10.5 MENU SYSTEM
The menu system is designed so that it may be invoked and overlayed at any time with any image projected. When invoked, the menu system will not interrupt the display of the underlying image. The hierarchical design, with a main menu and sub-menus, provides a logical approach to access the various functions. The localization in the upper left corner and the moderate size of the menus does not block much of the view of the image displayed. Several languages are selectable to suit international users.
10.6 OSD SYSTEM
The OSD (On Screen Display) is used to echo user controls for positive feedback. The OSD is active both within the menu and with direct controls. The OSD should not be confused with the menu system, the latter being used to gain access to controls, while the OSD merely indicates the actual operation. The OSD may be selected or deselected in the menu.
10.7 SET-UP MEMORY
The various user selections and settings that are made with the remote control, the projector keypad and the menu system, are automatically memorized for future reference. Most settings are related to the actual source in use, so when switching between sources, or between modes within sources, the individual settings are recalled accordingly.
The memory can store up to 40 different sources and mode characteristics. Some sources are predefined, while the remaining are available for customer set-up. See the compatibility list in the Technical Data section.
New sources are added to the memory only if the sync pattern differs significantly from a previous selection. If a new source is detected as an old one (close or identical sync patterns), and the settings are changed, the new settings will override the old ones.
See the Remote Control and Menu sections for details of which functions that are memorized.
10.8 COOLING SYSTEM
The heat generated in the projection lamp and the electronics circuitry needs to be effectively vented out of the projector. Cooling fans are employed to force the convection of air through the system. Air is let out close to the projection lamp (as this is the hottest area).
29
Page 30
USER GUIDE SVGA DLP PROJECTOR
The projector is designed to operate at a wide temperature range and works well when ceiling mounted, even at high ambient temperatures. See the Technical Data section for temperature specification.
The cooling system is temperature controlled, so that when operated on the desktop at normal temperature, the noise level is minimized due to a relaxed fan speed. When operating in the ceiling under high ambient temperatures, the fan runs at a higher speed to maintain cooling while the noise level increases. The light leakage out of the vents is minimized by a special light blocking design of the vent flanges.
10.9 MONOCHROME MODE
In some presentations where colors are not required, i.e. word processing documents or spreadsheets, the monochrome mode can be used to increase the brightness.
Monochrome button
When the monochrome button (black & white) is pulled up the brightness is increased three times compared to color mode. To return to color mode, press button down.

11 APPLICATIONS
The projector is perfectly suited for a variety of different applications including portable use, work groups, teaching, training, home theatres, control rooms, product promotion, shows, simulators and more.
11.1 PORTABLE USE
The projector is designed with portability in mind for the nomadic user. The footprint is small and the weight is low. The unit is supplied with a soft carrying case holding the projector and all cables. The unit can be carried on-board an aeroplane and fits easily in the overhead locker. Remember that the projector is a delicate instrument containing precision optics. Avoid bumping and dropping the unit during transportation. When checking the unit in at the airport, ensure proper packaging to avoid breakage and malfunction. It is wise to bring an extra projection lamp, just in case.
11.2 WORK GROUPS
A work group typically involves a group of people actively involved in discussions round the table. The projector usually is connected to a networked computer. As the meeting evolves, various documents are continuously updated and corrected. Information is downloaded from the Internet or the company Intranet for up-to-date processing in the group. Video may be played back any time with high quality stereo sound. By the end of the session, the documents are wrapped up and minutes are distributed to the various recipients over the e-mail system. The projector may be placed on a table or permanently installed, either ceiling mounted or arranged for rear projection.
11.3 TEACHING
Educational institutions would use the projector both for traditional computer and video based teaching for the class, as well as interactive use over the Internet. By using the projector, the attention of the students is focused on a single large projection screen, supplementing the ordinary, individual computer monitors when needed. The projector may be placed on a table or permanently installed, either ceiling mounted or arranged for rear projection.
31

USER GUIDE SVGA DLP PROJECTOR
11.4 TRAINING
The projector is ideally suited for company training in various areas such as products, software, organisational and staff continued education. It is practical for this purpose to have a dedicated training room with good facilities for each individual in order to secure the attention of each person during the training session. It may sometimes help to break up the session with a video to regain any lost attention! The projector may be placed on a table or permanently installed, either ceiling mounted or arranged for rear projection.
11.5 HOME THEATRES
The projector is equipped with multistandard composite and super-video, as well as stereo sound, enabling large screen projection of high quality video. The user has full control over all parameters including color, sharpness contrast and brightness through the remote control and the menu system for the best possible projected image.
11.6 CONTROL ROOMS
Large screen projection of critical information enables a quicker and more consistent reaction to any change that needs immediate attention. This includes both manufacturing process control, as well as operational control in private, public and military situations. Several projectors may be cascaded or grouped to simultaneously project over a larger area or to project different screens simultaneously, using a dedicated screen splitter (available from third party suppliers). These applications are typically fixed and the projectors are usually either ceiling mounted for front projection or arranged in a rear-projection set-up.
11.7 PRODUCT PROMOTION
The projector is ideally suited to attract attention in order to promote sales of all kinds of products in shops and malls. The promotion material may be either computer generated or video based. Several projectors may be employed simultaneously to increase attention further. The projector is usually semi-permanently installed, either ceiling mounted or arranged for rear projection.

USER GUIDE SVGA DLP PROJECTOR
11.8 TRADE SHOWS
Many companies attend various trade shows throughout the year. In these situations, the key issue is to attract the attention of a large, continuously moving public. One or more units projecting your company message will help steering the crowd to your business. The projector might be either placed on the table top, ceiling mounted or used for rear projection. Since control over lighting conditions is difficult at trade shows, arranging two projectors on top of each other projecting, the same image on the same screen will help by increasing the brightness.
11.9 SIMULATORS
Simulators are used in various applications for training and entertainment. Professional use includes car driving, air plane and ship vessel control training, as well as other expensive and often dangerous situations that require well trained personnel. Entertainment use is basically in various theme parks etc.
