Digital Projection E-Vision 8000 series POSITIONING THE SCREEN AND PROJECTOR Installation and Quick-Start Guide
Positioning the Screen and Projector
• Install the screen, ensuring that it is in the best position for viewing by your audience.
• Mount the projector, ensuring that it is at a suitable distance from the screen for the image to ll the screen. Set the adjustable feet so that
the projector is level, and perpendicular to the screen.
• The dimension drawing below shows the positions of the feet for table mounting, and the xing holes for ceiling mounting.
Notes
Always allow the lamp to cool for
5 minutes before:
- disconnecting the power
- moving the projector
Ensure that there is at least
70cm (28in) of space between
the ventilation outlets and any
wall, and 50cm (20in) on all other
sides.
If ceiling mounting, ensure there
is 30cm (12in) of space between
the projector and ceiling.
Backup safety chains or wires
should always be used with
ceiling mount installations.
Do not stack the projectors.
Do not tilt the projector more
than ±12° in either direction, in
desktop or ceiling mode, when in
use, as this may cause serious
lamp failure, damage the lamp
module and cause extra cost on
replacement.

SMPTE 292 / HD-SDI signals are very high speed digital signals which require better quality
coaxial cable than conventional analogue video. The data rate is 1.5 Gigabits per second.
In choosing cable length and connectors for any installation the frequency response loss
in decibels should be proportional to √f, from 1MHz, to 1.5GHz. The following or similar

* Hot plug detect (HPD) is fully DVI compliant. DVI sources detect the presence of a display
device by providing +5V on pin 14 and looking for +5V on pin 16. Whenever the projector is
operational, and 5V is present on pin 14, pin 16 will be held at +5V.
EDID is available even when the projector is switched off.
Operational means that the projector is powered up. Non operational states are powered
down and some self test and reprogramming modes.

Digital Projection E-Vision 8000 series INTRODUCTION Remote Communications Guide
Introduction
The projector can be controlled by using an external control system or a PC via a LAN or RS232 serial interface, using a terminal-emulation
program, such as HyperTerminal.
Operation commands are used to simulate menu operations and determine the settings of the projector, and use the following format:
• All commands consist of ascii text strings starting with the letters ‘op’, and ending with an ascii Carriage Return character:
op <operation> <command> [CR]
• The <command> string can take one of the following formats:
<command> Description
Set = <value> Makes the setting take that value.
Get ? Asks what the current value is.
The value is returned as an ascii text string.
Increment + Adds 1 to the current value.
Decrement – Subtracts 1 from the current value.
Execute (none) Performs an action.
Examples
op input.sel = 1 [CR] sets the input signal to DVI
op input.sel ? [CR] asks what is the input signal
op brightness + [CR] increments the brightness setting
op contrastness – [CR] decrements the contrast setting
op auto.img [CR] commands the projector to attempt to re-synchronise to the current input source
Notes
Details of how to connect to the
projector, using the serial control
or LAN inputs, can be found in the
Connections Guide.
Note: spaces in the commands are
necessary.
eg op input.sel = 1
NOT opinput.sel=1
