Setting up

Adjusting the projector's elevator

When the place to put the projector is slightly uneven to the left or right, use the elevator feet to place the projector horizontally.

Using the feet can also tilt the projector in order to project at

10°

a suitable angle to the screen, elevating the front side of the projector within 10 degrees.

This projector has 2 elevator feet and 2 elevator knobs. An elevator foot is adjustable while pulling up the elevator knob on the same side as it.

1. Holding the projector, pull the elevator knobs up to loose the elevator feet.

2. Position the front side of the projector to the desired height.

3. Release the elevator knobs in order to lock the elevator feet.

4. After making sure that the elevator feet are locked, put the projector down gently.

5. If necessary, the elevator feet can be manually twisted to make more precise adjustments. Hold the projector when twisting the feet.

To loose an elevator foot, pull up the elevator knob on the same side as it.

To finely adjust, twist

the foot.

CAUTION ►Do not handle the elevator knobs without holding the projector, since the projector may drop down.

►Do not tilt the projector other than elevating its front within 10 degrees using the adjuster feet. A tilt of the projector exceeding the restriction could cause malfunction or shortening the lifetime of consumables, or the projector itself.

Using the security bar and slot

A commercial anti-theft chain or wire up to 10 mm in diameter can be attached to the security bar on the projector.

Also this product has the security slot for the Kensington lock. For details, see the manual of the security tool.

WARNING ►Do not use the security bar and the security slot to prevent the projector from falling down, since it is not designed for it.

NOTE • The security bar and the security slot are not comprehensive theft prevention measures. They are intended to be used as supplemental theft prevention measure.

Setting up

Connecting your devices (continued)

NOTE • Be sure to read the manuals for devices before connecting them to the projector, and make sure that all the devices are suitable to be connected with this product. Before connecting to a PC, check the signal level, the signal timing, and the resolution.

-Be sure to consult to the administrator of the network. Do not connect LAN port to any network that might have the excessive voltage.

-Some signal may need an adapter to input this projector.

-Some PCs have multiple screen display modes that may include some signals which are not supported by this projector.

-Although the projector can display signals with resolution up to UXGA (1600X1200), the signal will be converted to the projector’s panel resolution before being displayed. The best display performance will be achieved if the resolutions of the input signal and the projector panel are identical.

While connecting, make sure that the shape of the cable's connector fits the port to connect with. And be sure to tighten the screws on connectors with screws.

When connecting a laptop PC to the projector, be sure to activate the PC’s external RGB output. (Set the laptop PC to CRT display or to simultaneous LCD and CRT display.) For details on how this is done, please refer to the instruction manual of the corresponding laptop PC.

When the picture resolution is changed on a computer depending on an input, automatic adjustment function may take some time and may not be completed. In this case, you may not be able to see a check box to select “Yes/No” for the new resolution on Windows. Then the resolution will go back to the original. It might be recommended to use other CRT or LCD monitors to change the resolution.

In some cases, this projector may not display a proper picture or display any picture on screen. For example, automatic adjustment may not function correctly with some input signals. An input signal of composite sync or sync on G may confuse this projector, so the projector may not display a proper picture.

The HDMI port of this model is compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) and therefore capable of displaying a video signal from HDCP compatible DVD players or the like.

About Plug-and-Play capability

Plug-and-Play is a system composed of a computer, its operating system and peripheral equipment (i.e. display devices). This projector is VESA DDC 2B compatible. Plug-and- Play can be used by connecting this projector to a computer that is VESA DDC (display data channel) compatible.

Take advantage of this feature by connecting an RGB cable to the RGB1 port (DDC 2B compatible). Plug-and-Play may not work properly if any other type of connection is attempted.

Please use the standard drivers in your computer as this projector is a Plug-and-Play monitor.

NOTE for HDMI

• The HDMI supports the following signals.

-Video signal : 480i@60,480p@60,576i@50,720p@50/60,1080i@50/60,1080p@50/60 -PC signals : See User Manual - Technical

-Audio signal : Format Linear PCM

Sampling Frequency 48kHz / 44.1kHz / 32kHz

This projector can be connected with another equipment that has HDMI or DVI connector, but with some equipment the projector may not work properly, something like no video or no audio.

Be sure to use an HDMI cable that has the HDMI logo.

When the projector is connected with a device having DVI connector, use a DVI to HDMI cable to connect with the HDMI input and an audio cable to connect with one of the AUDIO input.

Remote control

About the remote control signal

The remote control works with the projector’s remote sensors. This projector has three remote sensors on the front, on the top, and on the back.

The sensors can be respectively turned active or inactive using the “REMOTE RECEIV.” in the SERVICE item of OPTION Menu (48). Each sensor senses the signal within the following range when the sensor is active.

The front and top sensors:

60 degrees (30 degrees to the left and right of the sensor) within 3 meters about.

The back sensor:

40 degrees (20 degrees to the left and right of the sensor) within 3 meters about.

NOTE • The remote control signal reflected in the screen or the like may be available. If it is difficult to send the signal to the sensor directly, attempt to make the signal reflect.

The remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1 LED), so be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote control’s signal to the projector.

The remote control may not work correctly if strong light (such as direct sun light) or light from an extremely close range (such as from an inverter fluorescent lamp) shines on the remote sensor of the projector. Adjust the position of projector avoiding those lights.
