Positioning your projector

Choosing a location

Before choosing an installation location for your projector, take the following factors into consideration:

• Size and position of your screen

• Electrical outlet location

• Location and distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment The projected image size and vertical offset depend on how far you place the projector, and the

zoom setting you choose. There is more information from Projection dimensions on page 16 which can help decide exact distance and height of your projector.

You can install your projector in the following ways.

1. Front Select this location with the projector

placed on the table in front of the screen. This is the most common way to position the projector for quick setup and portability.

3. Rear Select this location with the projector

placed on the table behind the screen. Note that a special rear projection screen is required.

2. Front Ceiling Select this location with the projector

suspended upside-down from the ceiling in front of the screen. Purchase the BenQ Projector Ceiling Mount Kit from your dealer to mount your projector on the ceiling.

4. Rear Ceiling Select this location with the projector

suspended upside-down from the ceiling behind the screen. Note that a special rear projection screen and the BenQ Projector Ceiling Mount Kit are required for this installation location.

After turning on the projector, the projector will automatically select a suitable setting for the way the projector is installed. If not, go to the Advanced menu - Installation > Projector Position, press OK and press / to select a setting.

The distance from the projector lens to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format each factors in the projected image size.

Projection dimensions

• The screen aspect ratio is 16:9 and the projected picture is in a 16:9 aspect ratio

• *The vertical offset value is the vertical distance from the bottom edge of the image (when the projector is placed on a table, diagram on the left), or top edge of the image (when the projector is ceiling mounted, diagram on the right) to the centerline of lens.

• Due to the lens optical characteristics, every projector has its vertical offset ratio. The vertical offset value normally gets larger while the projection distance increases.

For example, if you are using a 120-inch screen, the recommended projection distance is 3500 mm.

If your measured projection distance is 300 cm, the closest match in the "Distance from screen

(mm)" column is 2914 mm. Looking across this row shows that a 100'' (about 2.5 m) screen is

required. The projected image will be slightly higher/lower than the lens centerline with 125 mm vertical offset.

16 Positioning your projector

Page 17

To optimize your projection quality, we suggest doing the projection by referring to the values listed in the non-gray rows.

All measurements are approximate and may vary from the actual sizes. BenQ recommends that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should physically test the projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before you permanently install it, so as to make allowance for this projector's optical characteristics. This will help you determine the exact mounting position so that it best suits your installation location.

Mounting the projector

If you intend to mount your projector, we strongly recommend that you use a proper fitting BenQ projector mounting kit and that you ensure it is securely and safely installed.

If you use a non-BenQ brand projector mounting kit, there is a safety risk that the projector may fall down due to an improper attachment through the use of the wrong gauge or length screws.

Before mounting the projector

• Purchase a BenQ projector mounting kit from the place you purchased your BenQ projector.

• BenQ recommends that you also use a security cable to secure both the base of the mounting bracket and the security bar on the projector. This will perform the secondary role of restraining the projector should its attachment to the mounting bracket become loose.

• Ask your dealer to install the projector for you. Installing the projector on your own may cause it to fall and result in injury.

• Take necessary procedures to prevent the projector from falling off such as during an earthquake.

• The warranty doesn’t cover any product damage caused by mounting the projector with a non-BenQ brand projector mounting kit.

• Consider the surrounding temperature where the projector is ceiling mounted. If a heater is used, the temperature around the ceiling may be higher than expected.

• Read the user manual for the mounting kit about the range of torque. Tightening with torque exceeding the recommended range may cause damage to the projector and subsequently falling off.

• Make sure the power outlet is at an accessible height so that you can easily shut down the projector.

To reach the highest or lowest projection position:

1. Turn (Up/Down).

2. When you feel it is reaching the limit, turn

to the left or right and turn

again.

3. Repeat the step above until the suitable position is found.

• Lens shift adjustment will not result in a degraded picture quality.

• Please stop turning the adjustment knob when you hear a clicking sound indicating that the knob has reached its limit. Over-turning the knob may cause damage.

Securing the projector

The projector has to be installed in a safe place to prevent theft. Otherwise, purchase a security cable to secure the projector. A security bar is located on the right side of the projector. See item 16 on page 11. Insert a security cable to the opening of the security bar and secure it to a nearby fixture or heavy furniture.

You can also purchase a lock, such as the Kensington lock, to secure the projector. There is a Kensington lock slot on the rear side of the projector. See item 14 on page 11. A Kensington security cable lock is usually a combination of key(s) and the lock. Refer to the lock’s documentation for finding out how to use it.

Switching input signal

The projector can be connected to multiple devices at the same time. However, it can only display one full screen at a time. When starting up, the projector automatically searches for the available signals.

Be sure the Advanced menu - Display > Auto Source Search is On if you want the projector to automatically search for the signals.

To manually select the source:

1. Press SOURCE/ . A source selection bar appears.

2. Press / until your desired signal is selected and press OK.

Once detected, the picture from the selected source will appear. If there is multiple equipment connected to the projector, repeat steps 1-2 to search for another signal.

• The brightness level of the projected image will change accordingly when you switch between different input signals.

• For best display picture results, you should select and use an input signal which outputs at the projector’s native resolution. Any other resolutions will be scaled by the projector depending upon the “aspect ratio” setting, which may cause some image distortion or loss of picture clarity. See Aspect

Ratio on page 41.

High Altitude Mode

12V Trigger

Baud Rate

We recommend you use the High Altitude Mode when your environment is between 1500 m–3000 m above sea level, and ambient temperature is between 0°C–30°C.

Operation under "High Altitude Mode" may cause a higher decibel operating noise level because of increased fan speed necessary to improve overall system cooling and performance.

If you use this projector under other extreme conditions excluding the above, it may display auto shut-down symptoms, which is designed to protect your projector from over-heating. In cases like this, you should switch to High Altitude mode to solve these symptoms. However, this is not to state that this projector can operate under any and all harsh or extreme conditions.

Do not use the High Altitude Mode if your altitude is between 0 m and 1500 m and ambient temperature is between 0°C and 35°C. The projector will be over cooled, if you turn the mode on under such a condition.

If On is selected, the projector will send electronic signal out when it is turned on.

Selects a baud rate that is identical with your computer’s so that you can connect the projector using a suitable RS-232 cable. This function is intended for qualified service personnel.

Maintenance

Care of the projector

Cleaning the lens

Clean the lens whenever you notice dirt or dust on the surface. Please be sure to turn off the projector and let it cool down completely before cleaning the lens.

• Use a canister of compressed air to remove dust.

• If there is dirt or smears, use lens-cleaning paper or moisten a soft cloth with lens cleaner and gently wipe the lens surface.

• Never use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline/acid cleaner, scouring powder, or volatile solvent, such as alcohol, benzene, thinner or insecticide. Using such materials or maintaining prolonged contact with rubber or vinyl materials may result in damage to the projector surface and cabinet material.

Please note that it is normal to have some dust on the lens surface. If it needs lens clean, please never remove any parts of the projector.

Contact your dealer or local customer service center if the projector fails to operate as expected.

Cleaning the projector case

Before you clean the case, turn the projector off using the proper shutdown procedure as described in Shutting down the projector on page 31 and unplug the power cord.

• To remove dirt or dust, wipe the case with a soft, lint-free cloth.

• To remove stubborn dirt or stains, moisten a soft cloth with water and a neutral pH detergent. Then wipe the case.

Never use wax, alcohol, benzene, thinner or other chemical detergents. These can damage the case.

Storing the projector

If you need to store the projector for an extended time, please follow the instructions below:

• Make sure the temperature and humidity of the storage area are within the recommended range for the projector. Please refer to Specifications on page 55 or consult your dealer about the range.

• Retract the adjuster feet.

• Remove the battery from the remote control.

• Pack the projector in its original packing or equivalent.

Transporting the projector

It is recommended that you ship the projector with its original packing or equivalent.

Getting to know the light hour

When the projector is in operation, the duration (in hours) of light source usage is automatically calculated by the built-in timer. The method of calculating the equivalent light hour is as follows:

1. Light Usage Time = (x+y+z+a) hours, if Time used in Normal mode = x hours Time used in ECO mode = y hours Time used in Low Dynamic mode = z hours Time used in High Dynamic mode = a hours

2. Equivalent Light Hour = hours

, if

X= light source life spec of Normal mode Y= light source life spec of ECO mode Z= light source life spec of Low Dynamic mode A= light source life spec of High Dynamic mode

A’ is the longest light life spec among X, Y, Z, A.

For time used in each light source mode shown in OSD menu:

• Time used is accumulated and rounded down to an integer in hours.

• When time used is less than 1 hour, it shows 0 hours.

When you calculate Equivalent Light Hours manually, it will probably have deviation from the value shown in OSD menu since projector system calculates time used for each light source mode in “Minutes” then rounds down to an integer in hours shown in OSD.

To obtain the light source information: Go to the Advanced menu - System > Light Source Information and press OK. The Light

Source Information page appears. You can also get the light hour information on the Information menu.

Extending light source life

Setting the Light Source Mode

Go to the Advanced Menu - Picture > Advanced Color Settings > Light Source Mode and press

/ to select a suitable light source power from among the provided modes.

Setting the projector in ECO, Low Dynamic, or High Dynamic mode extends light life.

Light Source Mode

Descriptions

Normal Provides full light brightness.

ECO Lowers brightness to extend the light life and decreases the fan noise.

Low Dynamic Automatically changes the black level of the projected pictures to enhance

the effect of the contrast ratio. When set to this mode, the change in the black level will proceed smoothly, but will result in less obvious brightness

changes for quick transitions between bright and dark scenes.

High Dynamic Automatically changes the black level of the projected pictures to enhance

the effect of the contrast ratio. When set to this mode, the change in the black level will be quick, so that the transition between bright and dark scenes will be obvious. For some scenes, this sudden change in brightness may create a flashing effect that may lead to an uncomfortable viewing experience.

Setting Auto Power Off

This function allows the projector to turn off automatically if no input signal is detected after a set period of time to prevent unnecessary waste of light source life.

To set Auto Power Off, go to the Advanced menu - System > Operation Settings > Power On/Off Settings > Auto Power Off, and press OK, / to set a period of time.

• The light source (LED) can last around 20,000-30,000 hours and no need to be changed during the lifetime of the projector mostly. When it is needed, LED replacement is not user-serviceable. Please contact the service center for assistance.

• Changing this setting will make power consumption higher.
