Connections
This section provides explanations on connecting the projector to computers and video
equipment.
■ Connecting the projector to a computer
Switch off the power supply to the projector and computer before attempting to make the
connection.
Eligible computers
There are computers with which connections cannot be established and computer that cannot
be used for projection purposes even though a connection has been established. First of all, it is
necessary to confirm that a connection can be established with the computer in use.
● Conditions for eligible computers
Condition #1: The computer must be fitted with an image signal output port
Check to ascertain that the computer is fitted with ports that will output image signals,
such as the [RGB Port], the [Monitor Port] and the [Video Port]. If you have trouble
confirming this, refer to chapter on external monitor connections in the computer’s
instruction manual.
There are computers, such as combined computer/monitor models and laptop models,
that do not allow connections or for which optional external output ports must be
purchased.
Point
Depending on the computer, there are cases when it is necessary to switch the image signal output with the connection key ( , etc.,) and the settings.

to be set to mirroring after rebooting.
Condition #2: The resolution and frequency of the computer must be within the
boundaries listed in the chart on the next page
Projection will not be possible if the computer does not support the output image signal
resolutions and frequencies shown in the chart on the next page (there are cases where
projection is possible, but vivid projection will not be possible).
Confirm the image signal resolution and frequency with the computer’s instruction
manual.
There are also computers available that allow the output resolution to be amended. In this
case, amend the parameters to fit within the ranges shown in the chart on the next page.

Maintenance
This section provides explanations on taking care of the projector, replacing consumable
items and other maintenance procedures.
■ Cleaning the Projector, Cleaning the Lens, Cleaning the Air Filter
Clean the projector if it becomes soiled or if the quality of the projected images deteriorate.
Please clean the air filter about every 100 hours of operation.
Wa rn in g
· Personnel other than qualified servicemen must never open the projector. Many high-voltage
parts are contained inside the cover that may cause electric shocks. Contact your dealer or your
nearest address provided at page 96 to request internal inspections, repairs, adjustments,
cleaning and other tasks.
· Exercise caution when handling the Power Plug and Power Connector. Mishandling may
result in the outbreak of fire and electric shocks. Observe the following when handling the
Power Plug.
·Do not connect plugs or connectors that have become dirty or have foreign matter adhering to
them.
·Ensure that the plugs and connectors are firmly inserted in the relevant sockets as far as they
will go.
·Never attempt to connect plugs and connectors with wet hands.
Caution
· Never attempt to remove the lamp immediately after use.
Failure to observe this may result in burns or other injuries. Turn off the projector and allow
the lamp to cool down for at least 60 minutes first.
· Disconnect the Power Plug and Power Connector from their sockets when carrying out maintenance tasks. Failure to observe this may result in electric shocks.
Switch off the power supply and disconnect the Power Cord prior to cleaning any part of the
projector.
Cleaning the Projector, Cleaning the Lens, Cleaning the Air Filter - 83
Page 86
Cleaning the projector
· Gently wipe the soiled parts of the projector with a soft cloth.
· When the soiling is severe, wipe the area with a cloth moistened with a medium-strenth
cleaning agent diluted with water, and then gently wipe it with a dry cloth.
Never use wax, Benzene, thinner or other active agents. Failure to observe this may result in
damage or paint peeling from the casing.
Cleaning the lens
Clean the lens with an air-blower (available on the open market) and special lens cleaning
paper. The surface of the lense is easily damaged, so exercise extreme caution and avoid using
anything other than soft materials.
Cleaning the Air Filter
Air ventilation will deteriorate and the internal temperature of the projector will rise if the Air
Filter becomes blocked with dirt and dust, and this may result in damage.
Ensure that the projector is stood on its end and the Air Filter cleaned with a vacuum cleaner to
prevent the dirt and dust from penetrating inside.
Point
· If it is no longer possible to remove the dirt from the Air Filter or it begins to crack, it is time
to replace it. Contact your dealer in this event.
· A replacement air filter is packaged with the replacement lamp. Replace the Air Filter at
the same time as replacing the lamp.
84 - Cleaning the Projector, Cleaning the Lens, Cleaning the Air Filter
Page 87
■ Replacing the Air Filter
Replacement method
1 Switch off the power supply, allow the projector to cool down, and then disconnect the
Power Cord. The amount of time required for the projector to cool down will depend
on the surrounding temperature.
2 Remove the Air Filter.
Point
Ensure that the projector is stood on its end when replacing the Air Filter to prevent the dirt
and dust from penetrating inside.
Set a new Air Filter in place.
