Compatible Computer Display Formats

To project images from a computer, set the computer’s video card at a refresh rate (vertical frequency) compatible with the projector; see the following table for compatible formats. Some images are automatically resized to display in the projector’s “native” format (XGA). The frequencies of some computers may not allow images to display correctly; see your computer’s documentation for details.

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.

4. Press the P

Power button on top of the projector or on the

remote control.
