Important Operating Considerations for Safety
•Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 15 degrees
off axis.
•Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without any obstructions
to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or
other soft covering that may block the vents.
•Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2 m) away from any heating or cooling
vents.
•Use only the power cord provided. A surge-protected power strip is
recommended.
•Refer to this manual for proper startup and shutdown procedures.
•In the unlikely event of the lamp rupturing, discard any edible items
placed in the surrounding area and thoroughly clean the area along all
sides of the projector. Wash hands after cleaning the area and handling
the ruptured lamp. This product has a lamp which contains a very
small amount of mercury. Dispose of it as required by local, state or
federal ordinances and regulations. For more information see
www.eiae.org.
Follow these instructions to help ensure image quality and lamp life over
the life of the projector.

Introduction
Your new digital projector is simple to connect, easy to use, and straightforward to maintain. It is a versatile projector that is flexible enough for business presentations and home video viewing too. It has native SVGA
800x600 resolution and is compatible with a wide variety of computers and
video devices, including:
•Most standard VCRs, DVD players (progressive and interlaced), pro-
gressive DVD, HDTV sources, TV and satellite tuners, camcorders,
video games, and laser disc players.
•IBM-compatible computers, including laptops, up to 1024x768 resolu-
tion.

Connector Panel
The projector provides both computer and video connection options,
including:
•M1 for computer and video
•S-video
•Composite RCA audio/video
The projector also provides the following connectors:
•Monitor out
•Audio out
•12 volt DC output (see below)
RCA
audio/visual
12 volt DC output
The 3.5mm mini-jack trigger provides a 12 volt DC output. It provides a
constant output while the projector is on. It has numerous uses. For example, if you connect your projection screen to the 12 volt DC output with the
cable that came with your screen, when you turn on the projector the screen
will move down; when you turn the projector off, the screen will return to
the storage position. To use the 12 volt DC output, you must first remove
the safety plug.

Positioning the projector
To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of
your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between
the projector and the rest of your equipment. Here are some general guidelines:
•Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The
projector must be at least 4.9 feet (1.49m) from the projection screen.
•Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and
within 6 feet (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase extension cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector
within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object.
•If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, refer to the installation
guide that comes with the Ceiling Mount Kit for more information. To
turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” on page 39. We recommend
using an authorized ceiling mount.
•Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance
from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the
video format determine the size of the projected image. The top illustration to the right shows three projected image sizes. For more information about image sizes at different distances, see “Projected Image
Size” on page 45.
•The image exits the projector at a given angle. This image offset is
112.2% when the projector is in 4:3 mode (default mode). This means
that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 1.22’
above the center of the lens.
•This image offset is 132.9% when the projector is in 16:9 mode. This
means that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will
be 3.29’ above the center of the lens.
•See “Connecting a video device” on page 17 for additional information
on 16:9 and 4:3 modes.

Projector and Device Connector Guide
The following illustration and table should help you find the connectors to use and obtain the best resolution possible from your input devices, such as computers, standard VCRs, DVD players (progressive and interlaced), HDTV sources, TV and satellite tuners, camcorders, video games (progressive and interlaced), and laser disc players.
Computer connections
Computer connections involve attaching the VGA and USB ends of the provided computer cable to a computer and connecting the other end (M1) to the
Computer In input on the projector. The USB part of the computer cable allows you to advance slides in a PowerPoint™ presentation via a remote control.
See page 12 for computer/projector setup information.
Video connections
The first step for connecting video is deciding what type of output connector you want to connect to the projector. If there is more than one output on your
video device, select the one with the highest quality. Your options are S-video (higher quality) and Composite video (lesser quality).
If you are connecting the projector to HDTV sources, the projector’s M1 computer connector, labeled Computer In, should be used. Keep in mind that
HDTV and progressive sources should only be handled through the projector’s computer connector. You can also use an M1 to Component adapter (available as an optional accessory) to connect a progressive source’s component connectors to the projector. The S-video port does not function with progressive
sources.

Connecting a computer source
Required computer connections
Connect one end of the provided computer cable (see page 17 for connecting video devices) to the blue M1 Computer In connector on the projector.
Connect the other ends (USB and VESA) to the USB and VGA ports on your
computer. If you are using a desktop computer, you will need to disconnect
the monitor cable from the computer’s video port first.
This connection allows you to advance slides in a PowerPoint presentation
using the remote. USB drivers must be installed to use the USB feature.
For more information, see page 16.
connect computer cable
Connect the black power cord to the Power connector on the side of the projector and to your electrical outlet.
NOTE: Always use the power cord that shipped with the projector.
Optional computer connections
To have sound with your presentation, connect an audio cable (not
included) to your computer and to the red and/or white Audio In connectors on the projector.
If you are using a desktop computer and want to see the image on your
computer screen as well as on the projection screen, connect the computer’s
monitor cable to the Monitor Out connector on the projector.

Displaying a computer source image
Remove the lens cap.
Toggle the Powe r switch on the side of the projector to the On position.
The LED flashes green and the fans start to run. When the lamp comes on,
the start up screen displays and the LED is steady green. It can take a
minute for the image to achieve full brightness.
? No start up screen? Get help on page 22.
remove lens cap
toggle Power switch
Turn on your computer.
The computer’s image should appear on the projection screen. If it doesn’t,
press the Computer button on the projector’s keypad.
If your computer has Windows 98 as its operating system, see “Using the
projector with Windows 98 for the first time” on page 15 regarding the
driver setup process.
Make sure your laptop’s external video port is active.
Many laptops do not automatically turn on their external video port when a
projector is connected. Usually a key combination like FN + F8 or CRT/LCD
key turns the external display on and off. Locate a function key labeled
CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol. Press FN and the
labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your laptop’s documenta-
tion to learn your laptop’s key combination.
? No laptop image? Try pressing the Auto Image button on the key-
pad. Get help on page 23.
