Setting up

Adjusting the projector's elevator

When the place to put the projector is slightly uneven to the left or right, use the elevator feet to place the projector horizontally.

Using the feet can also tilt the projector in order to project at

a suitable angle to the screen, elevating the front side of the projector within 8 degrees.

This projector has 2 elevator feet and 2 elevator knobs. An elevator foot is adjustable while pulling up the elevator knob on the same side as it.

1. Holding the projector, pull the elevator knobs up to loose the elevator feet.

2. Position the front side of the projector to the desired height.

3. Release the elevator knobs in order to lock the elevator feet.

4. After making sure that the elevator feet are locked, put the projector gently.

5. If necessary, the elevator feet can be manually twisted to make more precise adjustments. Hold the projector when twisting the feet.

To loose an elevator foot, pull up the elevator knob on the same side as it.

To finely adjust, twist

the foot.

CAUTION ►Do not handle the elevator knobs without holding the projector, since the projector may drop down.

►Do not tilt the projector other than it elevating its front within 8 degrees using the adjuster feet. A tilt of the projector exceeding the restriction could cause malfunction or shortening the lifetime of consumables, or the projector itself.

Setting up

Connecting your devices (continued)

NOTE • Be sure to read the manuals for devices before connecting them to the projector, and make sure that all the devices are suitable to be connected with this product. Before connecting to a PC, check the signal level, the signal timing, and the resolution.

-Do not connect LAN port to any network that might have the excessive voltage.

-Some signal may need an adapter to input this projector.

-Some PCs have multiple screen display modes that may include some signals which are not supported by this projector.

-Although the projector can display signals with resolution up to UXGA (1600X1200), the signal will be converted to the projector’s panel resolution before being displayed.

The best display performance will be achieved if the resolutions of the input signal and the projector panel are identical.

•While connecting, make sure that the shape of the cable's connector fits the port to connect with. And be sure to tighten the screws on connectors with screws.

•When connecting a laptop PC to the projector, be sure to activate the PC’s external RGB output. (Set the laptop PC to CRT display or to simultaneous LCD and CRT display.) For details on how this is done, please refer to the instruction manual of the corresponding laptop PC.

•When the picture resolution is changed on a computer depending on an input, automatic adjustment 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.

•In some cases, this projector may not display a proper picture or display any picture on screen. For example, automatic adjustment may not function correctly with some input signals. An input signal of composite sync or sync on G may confuse this projector, so the projector may not display a proper picture.

•The M1-D port of this model is compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) and therefore capable of displaying a video signal from HDCP compatible DVD players or the like.
