Positioning the Projector

Follow these guidelines to get the best results when projecting:
Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, between
2.8 and 35.4 feet from the screen.
Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around
and under the projector.
Make sure the projector is within 6 feet (1.8 meters) of a
grounded electrical outlet or extension cord and within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of the image source.
Face the projector squarely toward the screen.
The projector supports 4 viewing setups, as shown below. If it is installed in a rear or overhead position, you need to select the correct projection option from the Extended menu after you turn it on.

Image Size and Projection Distance

The distance between the projector and the screen determines the basic size of the projected image, as shown below. The diagram shows approximately how big your image will be, based on where you set up the projector. Because other adjustments— such as those made with the affect the size of the image, the numbers shown in the illustration should be considered as general guidelines, not exact measurements.

Turning On the Projector

Make sure your projector and other equipment are set up and connected correctly. Then turn on your projector, as described below.
If you turn on your connected computer or video equipment before starting the projector, the projector automatically detects and displays the image source. If you turn on the projector first, or have multiple pieces of connected equipment, you may have to select the image source manually. See “Selecting the Image Source” on page 6.
Follow these steps to plug in and turn on the projector:
1. Remove the lens cap.
Caution:
Do not use the projector with the lens cap in place. The heat generated by the lamp can damage the cap.
Use the formulas given below to either find out how large your image will be when you know the distance from the projector to the screen, or to find out how far from the screen to place the projector when you want an image of a certain size. Since the size of the image can be changed by rotating the zoom ring, formulas are given for both the minimum and maximum sizes.
To determine the diagonal size (inches) of an image when you know the projection distance (feet):
Wide: Maximum diagonal size (inches) = 10.126246
×
distance (feet) + 1.166113
Tele: Maximum diagonal size (inches) = 8.443213
×
distance (feet) + 0.916898
To determine the projection distance (feet) when you know the diagonal size (inches) of the screen image:
Wide: Maximum projection distance (feet) = 0.09875
×
diagonal size (inches) - 0.11516
Tele: Maximum projection distance (feet) = 0.11844
×
diagonal size (inches) - 0.1086
2. Connect one end of the power cord to the projector’s power inlet. Then connect the other end to an electrical outlet.
The
Power light on top of the projector turns orange.
3. Turn on your computer or video source if they are not on already.

projector to sync up after changing the setting.
If the function key doesn’t permit you to display
simultaneously on both screens, you should check your monitor settings to make sure both the LCD screen and the external monitor port are enabled.
From the Control Panel, open the
Display utility. In the
Display Properties dialog box, click the click

Turning Off the Projector

When you’ve finished using the projector, follow the recommended procedure to shut it down.
Note:
When the projector has not received any input signals for 30 minutes, it automatically turns off the lamp and enters “sleep mode.” This conserves electricity, cools the projector, and extends the life of the lamp. If you are done using the projector, unplug the power cord. If you want to start projecting again, plug it in and press the P the Extended menu.

Adjusting the Image

The following sections describe how to adjust the displayed image.

Adjusting the Height of the Image

If the image is too low, you can raise it by extending the projector’s front foot.
1. Stand behind the projector. Press the foot release button and lift the front of the projector. This unlocks the foot.
2. Raise the projector until the image is positioned where you want it, then release the button to lock the foot in place.
3. If you need to straighten the image, rotate the foot in the back of the projector to raise or lower the side.
If the image is no longer rectangular after raising it, see “Adjusting the Image Shape” in the next column.

Focusing the Image

Rotate the focus ring to sharpen the image.

Adjusting the Image Shape

The projector automatically corrects images that are distorted when the projector is tilted up or down (up to a 30° tilt). The Keystone window appears on the screen while the projector makes the correction. If the projected image still isn’t rectangular or has a “keystone” shape, do one or more of the following:
If your image looks like or , you’ve placed the
projector off to one side of the screen, at an angle. Move it directly in front of the center of the screen, facing it squarely.
If your image looks like or , the Auto Keystone
feature may have been disabled or you may need to manually adjust the keystone correction value. (Auto Keystone is not available when you’re using ceiling or rear projection.) Follow the steps below:
To turn on Auto Keystone, press the
the remote control. Use the pointer button on the remote control (or the arrow buttons on the projector) to select the

Adjusting the Volume

You can use the buttons on the remote control or projector to increase or decrease the volume for both the projector’s built-in speaker and external speakers connected to the projector. Press the button to increase the volume, or the button to decrease it. A volume gauge appears on the screen while the volume is being adjusted.

Note
:
You can also adjust the volume using the projector’s Settings menu.

Selecting the Aspect Ratio

The aspect ratio is the ratio between an image’s width and its height. Standard images have an aspect ratio of 4: 3 and HDTV images usually have an aspect ratio of 16:9. If your video source is 16:9, you can change the aspect ratio to view the video in 16:9 wide-screen format.

Turning Off the Picture and Sound

Press the A/V Mute button on the remote control to darken your screen and turn off the sound. When you’re ready to resume, press
A/V Mute again.
If you press the button while projecting from a video source, and you don’t pause the video, it continues to play even though you can’t see or hear it. When you press the
A/V Mute button
again to resume, the playback does not resume at the exact point you paused it.
Note: You can make the blank screen blue, instead of black, whenever you press the
A/V Mute button by selecting it as the
background color in the Extended > Display menu. You can also create an image, such as a company logo or a picture, to display on the screen whenever you press the
A/V Mute button. See the
User’s Guide for more information.

Stopping the Action

Press the Freeze button to stop the action in your video or computer image and keep the current image on the screen. The sound will continue, however. Also, because the source continues to transmit signals, you won’t be able to resume the action from the point at which you paused it.
Press the
Freeze button or press Esc to restart the action.

Using the Remote Control

The remote control lets you access the projector’s features from anywhere in the room—up to 20 feet away. (This distance may be shorter if the remote control batteries are low.)
The projector may not respond to remote control commands in these conditions:
You are not within 20 feet (6 meters), or not within 30° to
the left or right of the front or rear sensor or 15° above or below it
The battery is weak or not installed correctly

Replacing Remote Control Batteries

When the batteries run out, follow the steps below to replace them. The remote requires two AAA alkaline batteries.
Caution:
When replacing batteries, take the following precautions:
Replace the batteries as soon as they run out. If a battery leaks,
wipe away battery fluid with a soft cloth. If fluid gets on your hands, wash them immediately.
Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.
Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations.
Remove the batteries if you won’t be using the remote control for
a long period of time.
1. Press in the tab to remove the battery cover.
3. Replace the battery cover. Make sure it clicks into place.

Cleaning the Projector Case

Before you clean the projector case, turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the outside with a soft, dry,
lint-free cloth.
To remove stubborn dirt or stains, clean the case using a soft
