Important Operating Considerations for Safety
•Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 8 degrees off
axis.
•Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without any obstructions
to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or
other soft covering that may block the vents.
•Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2 m) away from any heating or cooling
vents.
•Use only approved ceiling mounts.
•Use only the power cord provided. A surge-protected power strip is
recommended.
•Refer to this manual for proper startup and shutdown procedures.
•This product has a lamp which contains a very small amount of mercury. Wash hands after cleaning the area and handling the ruptured
lamp. Dispose of it as required by local, state or federal ordinances and
regulations. For more information see www.eiae.org.
•In the unlikely event of a lamp rupture, particles may exit through the
projector vents. When the projector is turned on, keep people, food,
and drinks out of the "keep out" area under and around the projector, as
indicated by the "X" areas below.

Positioning the projector
To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of
your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between
the projector and the rest of your equipment. Here are some general guidelines:
•Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The
projector (with the standard lens) must be at least 3 feet (0.9m) from the
projection screen.
•Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and
within 6 feet (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase extension cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector
within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object.
•If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, refer to the installation
guide that comes with the Ceiling Mount Kit for more information. To
turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” on page 29. We recommends using an authorized ceiling mount. The Ceiling Mount Kit is
sold separately; visit our website for more information.
•Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance
from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the
video format determine the size of the projected image. For information
about image sizes at different distances, see “Projected image size” on
page 37.
•For the standard lens that comes with the projector, the image exits at a
given angle. However, the lens shift feature makes the image offset
variable. The image offset is 90% at a 9:1 ratio when the projector is in
4:3 mode (default mode). This means that if you have an image 10’
high, the bottom of the image will be 1’ below the center of the lens.
•The image offset is 50% when the lens shift is at a 1:1 ratio. This means
that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 5’
below the center of the lens.
•For information about the optional lenses image offsets, see “Projected
image size” on page 37.

input is material originally captured on a film camera, like a movie; video
input is material originally captured on a video camera, like a TV show or
sporting event.)
There are also user-definable presets. To set a preset for the current source,
adjust the image, select Save Settings in the Presets menu, then select Save
User Presets 1 (or 2 or 3). You can recall these settings in the future by selecting the User 1 preset. If you select User Presets then further adjust the
image, Presets Off will automatically be selected in the Preset menu to indicate changes have been made.
To restore the factory default settings, choose Factory Reset in the Set-tings>Service menu.

Advanced settings
Sharpness: changes the clarity of the edges of a video image. Select a sharp-
ness setting.
Color Space: This option applies to computer and component video
sources (except 480i/576i). It allows you to select a color space that has been
specifically tuned for the input signal. When Auto is selected, the projector
automatically determines the standard. To choose a different setting, turn
off Auto, then choose RGB for computer sources, choose either SMPTE240,
REC709 or REC601 for component video sources.
Color Temperature: changes the intensity of the colors. Select a listed
value, or select User and individually adjust the intensity of the red, green,
and blue colors.
Video Standard: when set to Auto, the projector attempts to automatically
pick the video standard based on the input signal it receives. (The video
standard options may vary depending on your region of the world.) If the
projector is unable to detect the correct standard, the colors may not look
right or the image may appear “torn.” If this happens, manually select a
video standard by selecting NTSC, PAL, or SECAM from the Video Standard menu.
Active Iris: when on, the projector monitors the image brightness and modifies the light output if the image is dark, which improves black levels. In
Presentation mode, it looks at peak brightness, in Theater mode it looks at
average brightness.

Settings menu
Audio: allows adjustments to the Volume. Also allows you to turn on and
off the Internal speakers, and projector startup Chime.
Sources: allows you to assign a particular input to a specific source key
when using the Integrator remote. Also allows selection of a default Startup
Source and enables or disables Autosource.
Sources>Power-up Source: this determines which source the projector
checks first for active signal during power-up.
Sources>Autosource: When Autosource is not checked, the projector
defaults to the source selected in Powerup Source. If no source is found, a
blank screen displays. When Autosource is checked, Powerup Source determines which source the projector defaults to at power-up. If no signal is
present, the projector checks the sources in order until a source is found or
until power down.
System>Rear: reverses the image so you can project from behind a
translucent screen.
Ceiling: turns the image upside down for ceiling-mounted projection.
IR Receivers: turns individual IR receivers off or on to avoid environ-
mental interference.
Auto Power: When Auto Power is checked, the projector automatically
goes into the startup state after the projector is powered on. This allows
control of ceiling mounted projectors with a wall power switch.
Display Messages: displays status messages (such as “Searching”) in the
lower-left corner of the screen.
Low Power: toggles between on and off. Turn it on to lower the light output of the lamp. This also lowers the fan speed, making the projector quieter.
PC Screen Saver Off: prevents your notebook computer from going into
Screen Save mode. The projector must be connected to the PC via a USB
cable for this feature to work.

Power Save: automatically turns the lamp off after no signals are
detected for 20 minutes. After 10 additional minutes with no signal, the
projector powers down. If an active signal is received before the projector powers down, the image will be displayed.
Screen Save: automatically blanks the screen after no signals are
detected for five minutes. The image returns when an active source is
detected or a remote or keypad button is pressed. Screen Save is disabled
when Power Save is enabled.
Startup Logo: allows you to display a blank Black, White, or Blue screen
instead of the default screen at startup and when no source is detected. It
also allows you to capture and display a custom startup screen (except
from an M1-D source).
To capture a custom logo, display the image you want to capture on your
computer and select the Capture New option. From the Capture New
menu, use the Capture Position X and Capture Position Y adjustments to
frame the logo to be captured. Press Capture Start in the Capture New
menu. The projector will let you know if the capture was a success or a
failure.
The next time you start the projector, the custom logo you captured displays.

Replacing the projection lamp
The lamp hour timer in the Service Info menu counts the number of hours
the lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the specified end of the
lamp’s life, the message “Change lamp” briefly appears on the projected
screen.
NOTE: You can order new lamp housings from www.infocus.com (in select
areas), your retailer or your dealer. Use only a replacement lamp with the
same type and rating as the original lamp.
The part number is SP-LAMP-027.
1 Turn off the projector and unplug the power cable.
2 Wait 45 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.
3 Loosen the lamp cover screw on the right side of the projector (marked
by the arrow) then slide and lift the lamp cover off.
WARNINGS:
•To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 45 minutes before
you replace the lamp.
•Do not drop the lamp module. The glass may shatter and cause injury.
Do not touch the glass lamp screen. Fingerprints can obscure projection
sharpness.
•Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely
event that the bulb ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated.
The lamp housing is designed to contain these fragments, but use caution when removing the lamp housing. Before replacing the lamp, clean
the lamp compartment and dispose of cleaning materials. Wash hands
after lamp replacement. This product has a lamp which contains a very
small amount of mercury. Dispose of it as required by local, state or federal ordinances and regulations. For more information see

Command Format
All commands consist of 3 alpha characters followed by a request, all
enclosed in parentheses. The request can be a read request (indicated by a
"?") or a write request (indicated by 1 to 4 ASCII digits).
A read request example:
(AAA?) where
( starts the command
AAA denotes the command
A read command returns the range and the current setting, for example:
Read Command Examples
FunctionCommandResponse
Brightness(BRT?)(96-160,128)
Volume(VOL?)(0-32, 0)
Lamp Hours(LMP?)(0-65534, 42)
A write request example:
(AAA####) where
(starts the command
AAA denotes the command
#### denotes the value to be written
(leading zeros not necessary)
) ends the command
Some commands have ranges, while others are absolute. If a number greater
than the maximum range is received, it is automatically set to the maximum
number for that function. If a command is received that is not understood, a
"?" is returned. With absolute settings, "0" is off, 1-9999 is on. The one exception is the Power command, where 0 is off and 1 is on.
To assure the projector can process a command, wait 3 seconds before entering the next command.
? denotes the read request
) ends the command

Write Command Examples
FunctionCommandResponse
Brightness(BRT140)Sets the brightness to 140
Power(PWRO)Turns power off
Power(PWR1)Turns power on
Error Conditions
Not all commands are supported for all projectors. If an unsupported command is issued, the command will be ignored. If a command is received that
is not understood, a ‘?’ character will be returned indicating the command
was not understood.
Limitations
The projector cannot respond to commands coming in at a high-rate. Therefore, a delay must occur between commands to ensure that the command
gets properly executed. To assure the projector can process a command,
wait 3 seconds before entering the next command.
