Theatre.

"Using the Configuration Menu"

Hiding the Image and Sound Temporarily (A/V Mute)

Procedure

Remote Control Body

Each time you press the button, or open/close the lens cover A/V Mute turns on or off.

• If you use this function when projecting moving images, the

images and sound continue to be played back by the source, and you cannot return to the point where A/V Mute was activated.

• You can choose to display Black, Blue, or Logo as the A/V Mute display using the Extended - Display - A/V Mute setting from the configuration menu. s p.39

• When the A/V mute slide knob is closed, or when no operations are made for approximately 30 minutes, Sleep Mode activates and the power is automatically turned off. If you do not want Sleep Mode to activate, change the Lens Cover Timer setting to Off from Operation in the Extended menu. s p.39

You can use this when you want to focus the audience's attention on what you are saying, or if you do not want to show details such as when you are changing between files during presentations from a computer.

Functions for Enhancing Projection

Freezing the Image (Freeze)

When the moving image on the screen is frozen, the image continues to project, so you can project a moving image one frame at a time like a still photo. Also, you can perform operations such as changing between files during presentations from a computer without projecting any images if the freeze function is activated beforehand.

Procedure

Remote Control

Each time you press the button, Freeze turns on or off.

• Audio does not stop.

• The image source continues to play back the moving images even while the screen is frozen, and so it is not possible to resume projection from the point where it was paused.

• If the [Freeze] button is pressed while the Configuration Menu or a Help screen is displayed, the menu or Help screen being displayed is cleared.

• Freeze still works while E-Zoom is being used.

Changing the Aspect Ratio

Change the Aspect Ratiog when video equipment is connected so that images that have been recorded in digital video or onto DVDs can be viewed in 16:9 wide-screen format. Change the Aspect Ratio when projecting computer images at full size. The changing methods and the types of Aspect ratio are as follows.

Changing methods

Procedure

Remote Control

Each time you press the button, the Aspect name is displayed on the screen and the Aspect changes. If you press the button while the Aspect name is displayed on the screen, it changes to the next Aspect Mode.

Appendix

This chapter provides information on maintenance procedures to ensure the best level of performance from the projector for a long time to come.

Installation Methods

The projector supports the following four different projection methods. Install according to the conditions of the installation location.

Warning

•

A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

•

If you use adhesives on the Ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the ceiling mount and could damage the projector. When installing or adjusting the Ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants and so on.

Attention

Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.

• Project images from in front of the screen. (Front projection)

• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from in

front of the screen. (Front/Ceiling projection)

• An optional Ceiling mount is required when suspending the

projector from a ceiling. s p.75

• You can change the setting as follows by pressing down the [A/ V Mute] button on the Remote Control for about five seconds.

FrontWFront/Ceiling Set Rear or Rear/Ceiling from the Configuration Menu. s p.39

• Project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear

projection)

• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from

behind a translucent screen. (Rear/ Ceiling projection)

Cleaning

You should clean the projector if it becomes dirty or if the quality of projected images starts to deteriorate.

Cleaning the Projector's Surface

Clean the projector's surface by wiping it gently with a soft cloth. If the projector is particularly dirty, moisten the cloth with water containing a small amount of neutral detergent, and then firmly wring the cloth dry before using it to wipe the projector's surface.

Attention

Do not use volatile substances such as wax, alcohol, or thinner to clean the projector's surface. The quality of the case may change or become discolored.

Cleaning the Lens

Use a commercially available cloth for cleaning classes to gently wipe the lens.

Attention

•

If dust collects on the air filter it can cause the internal temperature of the projector to rise, and this can lead to problems with operation and shorten the optical engine's service life. Clean the air filter immediately when the message is displayed.

•

Do not rinse the air filter in water. Do not use detergents or solvents.

Attention

Do not rub the lens with harsh materials or subject the lens to shocks, as it can easily become damaged.

Cleaning the Air filter

Clean the air filter and the Air intake vent when the following message is displayed.

The projector is overheating. Make sure nothing is blocking the air vent, and clean or replace the air filter.

• If a message is frequently displayed, even after cleaning, it is time to replace the air filter. Replace it with a new air filter. s p.72

• It is recommended that you clean these parts at least once every three months. Clean them more often than this if using the projector in a particularly dusty environment.

Replacing Consumables

This section explains how to replace the Remote Control batteries, the Lamp, and the air filter.

Replacing the Remote Control Batteries

If delays in the responsiveness of the Remote Control occur or if it does not operate after it has been used for some time, it probably means that the batteries are becoming flat. When this happens, replace them with new batteries. Have two AA size manganese or alkaline batteries ready. You cannot use other batteries except for the AA size manganese or alkaline.

Attention

Make sure you read the Safety Instructions before handling the batteries. Safety Instructions

Procedure

Remove the battery cover.

While pushing the battery compartment cover catch, lift the cover up.

Replace the old batteries with new batteries.

Caution

Check the positions of the (+) and (-) marks inside the battery holder to ensure the batteries are inserted the correct way.

Replace the battery cover.

Press the battery compartment cover until it clicks into place.

Replacing Consumables

Replacing the Lamp

Lamp replacement period

It is time to replace the Lamp when:

• The message "Replace the lamp. " is displayed when you start projecting.

A message is displayed.

• The Lamp indicator flashes orange.

Attention

•

The lamp replacement message is set to appear after the following time periods in order to maintain the initial brightness and quality of the projected images.

When used continually at High Brightness: About 5000 hours

When used continually at Low Brightness: About 6000 hours

•

If you continue to use the Lamp after the replacement period has passed, the possibility that the lamp may explode increases. When the Lamp replacement message appears, replace the Lamp with a new one as soon as possible, even if it is still working.

•

Depending on the characteristics of the Lamp and the way it has been used, the lamp may become darker or stop working before the lamp warning message appears. You should always have a spare lamp unit ready in case it is needed.

p.37

How to replace the Lamp

The Lamp can be replaced even when the projector is suspended from a ceiling.

Warning

• The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.

•

When replacing the Lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a possibility that the Lamp may be broken. If replacing the Lamp of a projector which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always assume that the Lamp is broken, and you should stand to the side of the Lamp cover, not underneath it. Remove the Lamp cover gently.

•

Never disassemble or remodel the Lamp. If a remodeled or reassembled Lamp is installed into the projector and used, it could cause a fire, electric shock, or an accident.

Replacing Consumables

Caution

Wait until the Lamp has cooled down sufficiently before removing the Lamp cover. If the lamp is still hot, burns or other injuries may result. It takes about one hour after the power has been turned off for the Lamp to be cool enough.

Procedure

After you turn off the projector's power and the confirmation buzzer beeps twice, disconnect the power cable.

Wait until the Lamp has cooled down, then remove the Lamp cover.

Loosen the Lamp cover fixing screw with the screwdriver supplied with the new lamp unit or a + head screwdriver. Then slide the Lamp cover straight forward and lift it to remove.

Replacing Consumables

Loosen the two Lamp fixing screws.

Take out the old Lamp by pulling the handle.
