Lamp
WARNING
The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break with a
loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn over time.
Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after
you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards ofglass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the
projector’s vent holes.
About disposal of a lamp • This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put in trash.
Dispose of in accord with environmental laws.
For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org. (in USA)
For product disposal, contact your local government agency or www.eiae.org (in the
US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada).
For more information, call your dealer.
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unplug
the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement
lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the
projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling, so please do not try
to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
Disconnect the
plug from the
power outlet
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does),
ventilate the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes
out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.
• Before replacing the lamp, make sure the power switch is off and the
power cable is not plugged in, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp
to cool sufficiently. Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well
as damaging the lamp.
HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH TEMPERATURE HIGH PRESSURE
• Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from above.
This is dangerous, since if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the shards will
fall out when the cover is opened. In addition, working in high places is
dangerous, so ask your local dealer to have the lamp replaced even if the
bulb is not broken.
• Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp
replacing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose screws
could result in damage or injury.
• Use the lamp of the specified type only.
• If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible that
there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens,
contact your local dealer or a service representative.
• Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst
during use.
• If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see the
section “Related Messages” and “Regarding the indicator Lamps”),
replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of
time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not use old
(used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.

►Use the accessory cable or a designated-type cable for the connection.
Some cables have to be used with core set. A too long cable may cause a
certain picture degradation. Please consult with your dealer for details. For
cables that have a core only at one end, connect the core to the projector.
►Make sure that you connect devices to the correct port. Incorrect connection
may result in malfunction and/or damage to the device and/or projector.
NOTE • Whenever attempting to connect a laptop computer to the projector, be sure
to activate the laptop’s RGB external image output (set the laptop to CRT display or to
simultaneous LCD and CRT display). For details on how this is done, please refer
instruction manual of the corresponding laptop computer.
• Secure the screws on the connectors and tighten.
• Some computers may have multiple display screen modes. Use of some of these
modes will not be possible with this projector.
• For some RGB signal modes, the optional Mac adapter is necessary.
• When the image resolution is changed on a computer, depending on an input,
automatic adjust 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.
About Plug-and-Play capability
Plug-and-Play is a system composed of the computer, its operating system and
peripheral equipment (i.e. display devices). This projector is compatible with VESA DDC
2B. Plug-and-Play can be achieved by connecting this projector to computers that are
VESA DDC (display data channel) compatible.
• Please take advantage of this function by connecting the accessory RGB cable to the
RGB IN1 port (DDC 2B compatible) and/or the optional DVI cable to the DVI-D 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.
• The 8915's DVI is compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) and therefore capable of displaying video from HDCP compatible DVD
players, et al. However, if the HDCP standards are modified, the 8915's DVI might
not be able to display video from HDCP compatible device developed in conformance to
such modified HDCP standards.

WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
HIGH TEMPERATURE
HIGH PRESSURE
►The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break
with a loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn
over time. Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or
burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is
possible for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing
mercury to escape from the projector’s vent holes.
►About disposal of a lamp • This product contains a mercury lamp; do not
put in trash. Dispose of in accord with environmental laws.
For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org. (in the US)
For product disposal, contact your local government agency or www.eiae.org (in
the US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada).
For more information, call your dealer.
• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does),
unplug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a
replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass
could damage the projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling,
so please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.

• Before replacing the lamp, turn the projector off and unplug the power
outlet
cord, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently.
Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the
lamp.
• Never unscrew except the appointed (marked by an arrow) screws.
• Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from
above. This is dangerous, since if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the
shards will fall out when the cover is opened. In addition, working in
high places is dangerous, so ask your local dealer to have the lamp
replaced even if the bulb is not broken.
• Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp
replacing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose
screws could result in damage or injury.
• Use only the lamp of the specified type.
• If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible
that there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this
happens, contact your local dealer or a service representative.
•
Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.
• If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see
the section "Related Messages" and "Regarding the indicator Lamps"),
replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods
of time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not
use old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.

RS-232C Communication (continued)
Requesting projector status (Get command)
(1) Send the request code Header + Command data (‘02H’+‘00H’+ type (2 bytes)+
‘00H’ +‘00H’) from the computer to the projector.
(2) The projector returns the response code ‘1DH’+ data (2 bytes) to the computer.
Changing the projector settings (Set command)
(1) Send the setting code Header + Command data (‘01H’+‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) +
setting code (2 bytes)) from the computer to the projector.
(2) The projector changes the setting based on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
Using the projector default settings (Reset Command)
(1) The computer sends the default setting code Header + Command data (‘06H’+
‘00H’ + type (2 bytes) +‘00H’+‘00H’) to the projector.
(2) The projector changes the specifi ed setting to the default value.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
Increasing the projector setting value (Increment command)
(1) The computer sends the increment code Header + Command data (‘04H’+
‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) +‘00H’+‘00H’) to the projector.
(2) The projector in creases the setting value on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
Decreasing the projector setting value (Decrement command)
(1) The computer sends the decrement code Header + Command data (‘05H’+
‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) +‘00H’ + ‘00H’) to the projector.
(2) The projector decreases the setting value on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
When the projector cannot understand the received command
When the projector cannot understand the received command, the error code ‘15H’
is sent back to the computer.
Sometimes the projector cannot properly receive the command. In such a
case, the command is not executed and the error code ‘15H’ is sent back to the
computer. If this error code is returned, send the same command again.
When the projector cannot execute the received command.
When the projector cannot execute the received command, the error code ‘1cH’
+ ‘xxxxH’ is sent back to the computer. When the data length is greater than
indicated by the data length code, the projector ignore the excess data code.
Conversely when the data length is shorter than indicated by the data length
code, an error code will be returned to the computer.
NOTE • Operation cannot be guaranteed when the projector receives an undefi ned
command or data.
• Provide an interval of at least 40ms between the response code and any other code.
• The projector outputs test data when the power supply is switched ON, and when the
lamp is lit. Ignore this data.
