Important Information

Fire and Shock Precautions

• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your
projector. Allow at least 4 inches (10cm) of space between your projector and a wall.

• Do not try to touch the ventilation outlet on the left front (when seen from the front) as it can become heated while
the projector is turned on.

• Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector. Do not attempt to
retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver
into your project. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immediately and have the object removed
by a qualified service personnel.

• Do not place any objects on top of the projector.

• Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or fire.

• The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-240V AC 50/60 Hz. Ensure that your power supply
fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.

• Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.

•Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the projector. The light being projected from the lens
is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the lens, can cause unpre­dictable outcome such as fire or injury to the eyes.

• Do not cover the lens with the black lens cap or equivalent while the projector is on. Doing so can lead to melting of
the cap and possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light output.

• Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of the projector lens or a projector exhaust vent.
Doing so could lead to the object melting or getting your hands burned from the heat that is emitted from the light
output and exhaust.

• Handle the power cable carefully. A damaged or frayed power cable can cause electric shock or fire.

- Do not use any power cables than the supplied one.

- Do not bend or tug the power cable excessively.

- Do not place the power cable under the projector, or any heavy object.

- Do not cover the power cable with other soft materials such as rugs.

- Do not heat the power cable

- Do not handle the power plug with wet hands.

•Turn off the projector, unplug the power cable and have the object removed by a qualified service personnel
under the following conditions:

- When the power cable or plug is damaged or frayed.

- If liquid has been spilled into the projector, or if it has been exposed to rain or water.

- If the projector does not operate normally when you follow the instructions described in this user's manual.

- If the projector has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.

- If the projector exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.

- If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time.

• Disconnect the power cable and any other cables before carrying the projector

•Turn off the projector and unplug the power cable before cleaning the cabinet or replacing the lamp.

• When using a LAN cable:
For safety, do not connect to the connector for peripheral device wiring that might have excessive voltage.

CAUTION

• Do no use the tilt-foot for purposes other than originally intended. Misuses such as using the tilt foot to carry or
hang (from the wall or ceiling) the projector can cause damage to the projector.

• Do not send the projector in the soft case by parcel delivery service or cargo shipment. The projector inside
the soft case could be damaged.

• Select [High] in Fan mode if you continue to use the projector for consecutive days. (From the menu, select
[Setup - Options] → [Fan Mode] → [High].)

• Do not unplug the power cable from the wall outlet under any one of the following circumstances.
Doing so can cause damage to the projector:

Important Information

Remote Control Precautions

• Handle the remote control carefully.

• If the remote control gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.

•Avoid excessive heat and humidity.

• Do not heat, take apart, or throw batteries into fire.

• If you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.

• Ensure that you have the batteries' polarity (+/–) aligned correctly.

• Do not use new and old batteries together, or use different types of batteries together.

• Dispose of used batteries according to your local regulations.

Lamp Replacement

•To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page 104.

• Be sure to replace the lamp when the message [The lamp has reached the end of its usable life. Please
replace the lamp.] appears. If you continue to use the lamp after the lamp has reached the end of its usable
life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the
pieces of glass may cause injury.

If this happens, contact your dealer for lamp replacement.

A Lamp Characteristic

The projector has a high-pressure mercury lamp as a light source.
A lamp has a characteristic that its brightness gradually decreases with age. Also repeatedly turning the lamp on
and off will increase the possibility of its lower brightness.

CAUTION:

When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the projector. Glass
fragments could fall if the lamp has been burned out.

Slip the cover back over the bat­teries until it snaps into place.

NOTE: Do not mix different types of
batteries or new and old batteries.

• The infrared signal operates by line-of-sight up to a distance of about 22 feet/7 m and within a 60-degree angle of

the remote sensor on the projector cabinet.

• The projector will not respond if there are objects between the remote control and the sensor, or if strong light falls

on the sensor.
Weak batteries will also prevent the remote control from properly operating the projector.

Remote Control Precautions

• Handle the remote control carefully.

• If the remote control gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.

•Avoid excessive heat and humidity.

• Do not heat, take apart, or throw batteries into fire.

• If you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.

• Ensure that you have the batteries' polarity (+/–) aligned correctly.

• Do not use new and old batteries together, or use different types of batteries together.

• Dispose of used batteries according to your local regulations.

not in use, cover the lens with the lens cap.

To the wall outlet.

 Setting Up the Screen and the Projector

The further your projector is from the screen or wall, the larger the image. The minimum size the image can be is
approximately 21 inches (0.5 m) measured diagonally when the projector is roughly 28 inches (0.7 m) from the wall or
screen. The largest the image can be is 300 inches (7.6 m) when the projector is about 390 inches (10 m) from the wall
or screen. Use the drawing below as a guide.

2. Installation and Connections

WARNING

* Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done

by a qualified technician. Contact your dealer for
more information.

* Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.

• Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the
projector falls to the ground, you can be injured and
the projector severely damaged.

• Do not use the projector where temperatures vary
greatly. The projector must be used at temperatures
between 41˚F (5˚C) and 104˚F (40˚C). (Eco mode se­lected automatically at 95° to 104°F/35° to 40°C. Op­erational temperatures during use of wireless LAN
card: 41° to 95°F / 5° to 35°C).

• Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or
smoke. This will harm the screen image.

• Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your

projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents
on the side or the front of the projector.

Reflecting the Image

Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables
you to enjoy a much larger image when a smaller space
is required. Contact your dealer if you need a mir­ror system. If you're using a mirror system and your im­age is inverted, use the MENU and SELECT buttons on
your projector cabinet or your remote control to correct
the orientation. (→ page 84)

2. Installation and Connections

 Making Connections

Connecting Your PC or Macintosh Computer

NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and
before turning on the power to the notebook PC.
In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before being powered up.
* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power manage-

ment software.

Enabling the computer’s external display

Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display.
Usually, the combination of the ‘Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on or
off. For example, laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through external
display selections.

To mini D-Sub 15-pin connector on the projector. It is recom­mended that you use a commercially available distribution
amplifier if connecting a signal cable longer than the supplied
one.

NOTE: For older Macintosh, use a commercially
available pin adapter (not supplied) to connect to
your Mac's video port.

IBM VGA or Compatibles (Notebook
type) or Macintosh (Notebook type)

NOTE: The 8775 /8774 is not compatible with video decoded outputs of the ISS-6010 switchers.

NOTE: An image may not be displayed correctly when a Video or S-Video source is played back via a commercially available scan
converter.
This is because the projector will process a video signal as a computer signal at the default setting. In that case, do the following.
* When an image is displayed with the lower and upper black portion of the screen or a dark image is not displayed correctly:

Project an image to fill the screen and then press the AUTO ADJ button on the remote control or the AUTO ADJUST button on the
projector cabinet.

* When noise appears on the sides of the screen:

Use the Overscan feature to display the image correctly.
Be sure to change the Overscan to 0% before pressing the AUTO ADJ or AUTO ADJUST button, otherwise an image may be
displayed with its sides cut off.

2. Installation and Connections

When Viewing a DVI Digital Signal

To project a DVI digital signal, be sure to connect the PC and the projector using a DVI-D signal cable (not supplied)
before turning on your PC or projector. Turn on the projector first and select DVI (DIGITAL) from the source menu
before turning on your PC.
Failure to do so may not activate the digital output of the graphics card resulting in no picture being displayed. Should
this happen, restart your PC.
Do not disconnect the DVI-D signal cable while the projector is running. If the signal cable has been disconnected and
then re-connected, an image may not be correctly displayed. Should this happen, restart your PC.

NOTE:

What is HDCP/HDCP technology?

HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP)
is a system for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a Digital Visual Interface (DVI).
If you are unable to view material via the DVI input, this does not necessarily mean the projector is not functioning
properly. With the implementation of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is protected with HDCP and
might not be displayed due to the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital Content Protection, LLC).

With the LAN connection, two features are available: Projector control and Picture transmission.

Projector control feature

With the wired or wireless LAN connection, you can control (power on/off, input select, etc.) and receive information
from the projector over the network using a computer. The following two methods are available:

* Using the HTTP Server feature on the projector. (→ page 48)
* Using PC Control Utility 3.0 from the supplied User Supportware 3 CD-ROM.

Picture transmission feature

With the wired or wireless LAN connection, you can send images and slides from a personal computer to the projector
which then can be projected on the screen. The following two methods are available:

* Using Image Express Utility 2.0 from the supplied User Supportware 3 CD-ROM.
* Using Ulead Photo Explore 8.0 from the supplied User Supportware 3 CD-ROM.

With the USB mouse connected to the projector, you can also operate the desktop screen on your Windows PC
connected to the LAN or the wireless LAN.

* Using Desktop Control Utility 1.0 from the supplied User Supportware 3 CD-ROM.

NOTE: Use a wireless LAN card conforming to the Wi-Fi standard for your personal computer.
