2-S * User's Guide

CALITIOWi

Be extremely careful when using the projector

with a tripod. The following precautions should be observed:

• You can mount the projector on a tripod by yourselfHowever, it is easier to do this if someone else is holding the projector while you connect the mount.

• Make sure that the tripod legs and camera mount are securely locked.

• Do not place the tripod and projector in any pathways that you or your audience will be using during the presentation.

• Make sure that all cables are secured and out of the way. In particular, be extremely careful of the power cord and any extension cords.

Chapter S • Detsiied Setup

Closing the Projector

an external monitor, follow the procedure described in the

previous section titled Desktop Computers.

Special Conflguratians

If your computer has an internal monitor but does not have external video capabilities (i.e., Macintosh SEs and certain Pow’erBooks), you will need a video adapter card in order to attach the Desktop Projector. Setup for a third-party adapter is identical to the procedures outlined in the previous section titled

Desktop Computers.

Contact your dealer, Proxima Customer Seivhce, or a third—party supplier for more information regarding video adapters.

Maintenance

There is very iitde involved with the care and maintenance of

your Desktop Projector. However, common sense and periodic maintenance will ensure top performance.

An optional maintenance kit {part number A60) is available that includes the following materials:

• (2) Halogen ianips

• Lens cleaning fluid

• Lens tissue

• Top and front air filters

• Can of compressed air

The lamps, lenses, mirrors, and LCD panel have been carefully aligned at the factory to give you the clearest, brightest image possible. However, physical abuse can cause misalignment or damage to the optical elements. Take appropriate care in use and handling.

CAUTIOIM!

The Desktop Projector contains sensitive

circuitry and optics. Protect it from potential fluid spills.

User’s Guide • <4-1

Chapter A • Maintenance

Cleaning

From time to time, you’ll need to clean the optics on the lens and

mirror assembly.

Projection Lens or Minror

1. Take a piece of lens tissue and form it into a loose swab. Wet it with lens cleaning fluid or alcohol and gently move it over the lens or mirror surface.

2. Take another part of the lens tissue not touched by your bare fingers and repeat the process, going over the lens or mirror in another direction.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until no smudges or particles can be seen when the lens or mirror is illuminated by a strong light. If the lens or mirror is extremely dirty, it may be necessary to use several pieces of lens tissue. Water may be used if alcohol is unavaikbie.

CAUTIONS Acetone should NEV'ERbe used because it may

remove the pain: from the metal lens or mirror mount and leave a

residue on the glass surface.
