Be extremely careful not to look directly into the lens when the 210 is on. The
bright light can harm your eyes. Be especially careful to keep children from looking into the lens.
Don’t Disassemb le
Do not open the 210 case! Doing so exposes you to an electric shock hazard.
Except for the projection lamp, there are no user-serviceable parts. All service
must be performed by an In Focus Systems Authorized Service Provider.
Avoid Hot Su rfaces
The inside of the 210 lamp housing can be very hot. Allow the 210 to cool for at
least 45 minutes before opening the lamp door to replace the lamp. Use extreme
care. Avoid touching the hot surfaces inside.
Use On ly T he 210 Power Cord
Always use the power cord that came with the 210. Although other cords might
look the same, they have not been safety-tested with the 210. Never use the power
cord if it’s damaged or frayed. When you disconnect the 210, always remove the
power cord from the electrical outlet first, then from the 210.
Don’t Defeat The Purp o se Of The Grounding Plug
The 210 is grounded through the grounding conductor on the power cord. To
avoid electric shock, plug the power cord into a properly wired receptacle.
Use The Correct Fuse
To avoid the risk of fire, use only a T6.3AH 250V 5x20mm fuse.
Avoid Liquid Spills
Don’t set drinks on top of the 210. Spilled liquids can flow inside causing damage.
Don’t Block Ventilation
Openings in the case provide ventilation to protect the 210 from overheating.
Keep loose papers and other objects away from the bottom, top and side grills.
Don’t place the 210 on top of or close to a computer or other heat-producing
equipment.

once. (It takes several seconds for the projection lamp to reach
full power and project the image again.)
NOTE: With some computers,
the order in which you power up
the equipment is very important.
We recommend that you always
turn on the computer LAST. Turn
on all other pieces of equipment
(including the computer’s monitor) before you turn on the computer.
To completely power off the projector, press the “O” side of the
power switch. If you want to turn the projector back on immediately, you must allow about 45 seconds for the lamp to cool. The
lamp won’t light if it’s too hot.
NOTE: When you disconnect the
projector after you have switched
it off, always remove the power
cord from the electrical outlet first,
then remove it from the projector.

USING THE PROJECTOR
This section describes how to use and make adjustments to the
projector. It also provides a reference to the remote control buttons and the options available from the on-screen menus.
Basic Im age Adjustment
1 Make sure you have powered up your equipment in the right
order (page21).
2 If the image doesn’t display completely, adjust the height of
the projector (page 26) or center the image by adjusting its
horizontal or vertical position (page 38).
3 If the image is out of focus, rotate the lens to focus it (pag e 26).
4 If the image appears to shimmer or if it has blurry v ertical
bars after you hav e adjus ted the focus, turn Auto Image
(page 37) off and t hen bac k on to reset the automat ic sync and
tracking. If that doesn’t clear up the image, adjus t the sync
(page 37) and/or the tracking (page38) manually.
5 If the colors don’t look right, adjust the brightness (page 29).
Using the Remote Control
Point the remote control at th e proje ction screen or at the f ront or
rear of th e projector. The range for optimum operation is about
40 feet. If you point the remote at the projection screen, the distance to the screen and back to the projector must be less than or
equal to 40 feet. For best results, point the remote directly at the
front or the rear of the projector.
NOTE: If you can’t aim the
remote control at the projector so

5 Slide the battery cover back on the remote .
Replacing the Fuse
A power line surge or spike can blow the power supply fuse,
causing the projector to sto p w orking. If th is happens, you’ll need
to replace the fuse.
The projector ships with a 6.3 amp fuse. The correct replacement
fu se depen ds on the power line voltage in the country where you
are operating the projector.
• If your line voltage is 115V to 240V, use a T6.3AH, 250V,
5x20mm fuse.
• If your line voltage is 100V to 115V (as in Japan), use a T8AH,
250V, 5x20mm fuse. You can order the fuse from your In Focus
dealer; the part number is listed on page58.
CAUTION: Use only the specified power supply fuse. Using a different fuse may damage the
projector.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you’re experiencing trouble with the projector, follow these
steps to make sure everything is properly connected before you
call Technical Support for assistance.
1 C heck cable connections. Verify that all computer, CableWiz-
ard and power cables are properly connected.
2 Verify that all power is switched on.
3 Verify tha t the projector has not been switched off with the
standby button on the remote or keypad .
4 If the projector still doesn’t d i splay an image, restart the com-
puter.
5 If the problem still exists, unplug the projector from the com-
puter and check the computer monitor’s display. The maximum resolution that t he 210 can display is 800x600 pixels,
preferably 640x480; the maximum resolutio n that the 220 can
display is 1024x768 pixels, preferably 800x600. The problem
might be with the gr aphics controller in your computer rather
than w i th the projector. When you reconnect the projector,
remember to turn the computer and monitor off before you
power up the projector. Power the equipment back up in this
order: projector, monitor, computer.
NOTE: Macintosh computers
require a specific power -up
sequence: the projector must be
turned on before you turn on the
computer.
6 If you’re using a laptop computer and its monitor is not dis-
playing your presentation, make sure you have re-activated
the computer’s monitor. Most laptop computers de-activate
their own monitor when a second display device, such as the
projector, is connected. Refer to page 59 for more information.
7 If the problem still exists, read through the problems and
solutions in this chapter.
If you call Technical Support for assistance:
• Find out what kind of graphics controller card is installed in
your computer. This is th e circuit board in the computer to

Using Video Mirroring with a PowerBook Computer
When you turn video mirroring on, the projector displays the
same information that appears on your PowerBook’s built-in
screen. When video mirroring is off, the projector acts like a separate display.
To turn on video mirroring for the first time:
1 Open the Monitors control panel; click on Monitor 2.
2 Se t the number of colors you want.
3 Open the Control Strip; click on the monitor icon.
4 Select “Turn Video Mirroring On.”
Now you can turn video mirroring on and off from the Control
Strip without having to open th e Monitors control panel again.
When using video mirroring and high color graphics such as
slide shows, the projected image occasionally might turn black
and wh i te. If this happens, perform the following steps:
1 Turn off video mirroring.
2 Open the Monitors control panel.
3 Move the white m enu bar to Monitor 2 to set the projector as
the primary monitor.
4 Restart the PowerBook.
