User Guide SAFETY & WARNINGS

INFORMATION AND WARNING ABOUT POTENTIAL HEALTH ISSUES RELATED TO MERCURY VAPOR

This projector is using an extremely bright UHP™ lamp for illumination to attain the desired high brightness image.

This technology is similar to other high-pressure discharge lamps that are extensively used in cars, street lights and other lighting appliances today. These lamps, like fluorescent lighting, contain small amounts of mercury. The amount of mercury present in a lamp is far below the limits of danger set by the authorities.

It is very important that lamps containing mercury are treated properly to minimize potential health hazards.

The UHP™ lamp, like any other high brightness projector lamp, is under high-pressure when operating. While the lamp and the projector are carefully designed to minimize the probability of lamp rupture, the lamp may break while operating and small amounts of mercury vapor may be emitted from the projector. The probability of rupture increases when the lamp reaches its nominal life. It is therefore highly recommended that the lamp is replaced when the rated lifetime is reached.

As a general precaution, secure good ventilation in the room when operating the projector. If lamp rupture occurs, evacuate the room and secure good ventilation. Children and pregnant women in particular should leave the room.

When replacing a worn lamp, dispose of the used lamp carefully by proper recycling.

Mercury is a naturally occurring, stable metallic element that may pose a safety risk to people under certain conditions. According to the Public Health Statement for Mercury published by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry ("ATSDR", part of the United States Public Health Service), the brain, central nervous system and kidneys are sensitive to the effects of mercury, and permanent damage can occur at sufficiently high levels of exposure. Acute exposure to high concentrations of mercury vapor can cause conditions such as lung and airway irritation, tightness in the chest, a burning
MGP D5 7
Page 8
SAFETY & WARNINGS User Guide
sensation in the lungs, coughing, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Children and fetuses are particularly sensitive to the harmful effects of metallic mercury to the nervous system.

Seek medical attention if any of the above symptoms are experienced or if other unusual conditions are experienced following lamp rupture.

REMOTE CONTROL WARNING

Laser radiation class II product; wavelength 670nm; maximum output 1 mW.

Remote control complies with applicable requirements of 21 CFR
1040.10 and 1040.11.

Remote control complies with applicable requirements of EN 60 825-1: 1994 + A11

LASER RADIATION WARNING

CAUTION: Laser radiation. Do not stare into the beam.

IMAGE ADJUSTMENTS User Guide

IMAGE ADJUSTMENTS

Turn the FOCUS (A) and ZOOM (B) rings on the projection lens to get a correctly sized and focused image. If the desired image size is not achieved by zooming, relo­cate the unit nearer or farther away from the projection screen and refocus.
To adjust the projected image to the desired height on the screen, eject the front foot (C) by pressing the release button (D), and adjust the angle to the right position. When the image is shifted up, the so-called 'keystone' effect appears as an optical distortion of the image. You may compensate this effect by the KEYSTONE correction control on the keypad or remote control.
To get an image level with the screen, turn the rear feet (E) to the right position.

MOUSE CONTROL

You may control the computer mouse functions using the remote control.

In order to enable this function, connect a USB cable between the computer and the projector. Ensure that the PC has an operating system that supports USB (Windows™ 98 2nd edition or newer).

As long as the menu system on the projector is not activated, the tracker ball on the remote control will now emulate the mouse movements. When the menu system is activated, the tracker ball is used for menu navigation. (See menu system chapter).

Point the remote control directly at the IR receiver in the front or in the rear. Move the mouse pointer by rolling the tracker ball in the direction required. The LEFT key emulates the left mouse key, while the RIGHT key emulates the right mouse key.

The pointer movement may not be as smooth as you are used to with you ordinary mouse, due to the reduced bandwidth of the infrared remote control connection.

RS 232 AND LAN CONTROL User Guide

RS 232 AND LAN CONTROL

RS 232

You may control and monitor the projector remotely through the serial RS232 control interface.

The RS232 protocol is a binary protocol where each command is a series of 32 bytes in one packet. The protocol allows for both SET and GET operations. To utilize GET operations the host needs a routine for receiving and interpreting incoming packets. SET­operations are used to force the projector into different modes, like setting brightness and contrast, switching between sources, etc.

A separate document “RS-232 and LAN communication protocol and command set” is available that describes the communications parameters and operational codes in detail.

LAN

The projector can be controlled and monitored using through the LAN connector as an alternative to RS232.

LAN control is based on the same command set as RS232.

NOTE! THE PROJECTOR IS CONFIGURED WITH A DEFAULT IP ADDRESS. SEE THE SYSTEM INFORMATION AVAILABLE THROUGH THE MENU SYSTEM OR REMOTE CONTROL FOR THE ACTUAL IP-ADDRESS.

Detailed descriptions of configuration, use and command set is described in a separate document “RS-232 and LAN communication protocol and command set”.

You may consider using the LAN interface as a means of theft­detection. When the projector is removed, the LAN will be disconnected; this may be detected over the local area network and could be used to trigger an alarm.
