Remote Control Operating Range
The remote control uses infrared transmission to control the projector. It is
not necessary to point the remote directly at the projector. As long as you
are not holding the remote perpendicular to the sides, the remote will
function well within a radius of about 10 meters (33 feet) and 30 degrees
above or below the projector level. If the projector does not respond to the
remote control, move a little closer. Refer to the illustrations below:
10M (33 ft.)
60 degree
NOTES:
AVOID USING THE PROJECTOR WITH BRIGHT FLUORESCENT LIGHTING TURNED ON. CERTAIN
HIGH-FREQUENCY FLUORESCENT LIGHTS CAN DISRUPT REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION.
BE SURE NOTHING OBSTRUCTS THE PATH BETWEEN THE REMOTE CONTROL AND THE
PROJECTOR. IF THE PATH BETWEEN REMOTE AND PROJECTOR IS OBSTRUCTED, YOU CAN
BOUNCE THE REMOTE SIGNAL OFF CERTAIN REFLECTIVE SURFACES SUCH AS PROJECTOR
SCREENS.
