[General cautions]

9 Do not place this unit where it gets hot.

Be careful since if you place the unit

outdoors, in a place exposed to direct
sunlight or near a heating device,
the cabinet and parts could be
affected.

■ Volume.

Use at the proper volume level so that it does
not bother persons in the neighborhood.
Especially, since the sound is likely to carry
well at the night even at a low volume, consider
the neighborhood to a good living environment.

the cautions that come with the cloth.

● Do not spray a volatile agent such as

insecticide on the unit. Do not leave a rubber
or vinyl object touching the cabinet for a long
time. It may cause the cabinet to change in
quality or the coating to peel off.

. Clean the dirt fi-om the cabinet and operation

panel by dusting lightly with a soft cloth. If
the dirt is conspicuous, wipe off with a cloth
moistened with detergent diluted with water,
then wipe off with a dry soft cloth.

■ Rest your eyes occasionally when

viewing for a long time.

reply the error reply ‘OxH’+’yyH+data bytes same as (l).

● When only power control (POWER COMMAND) is performed, it takes about 2-140 seconds

between sending set code and receiving answering code.

The example of command error

When projector cannot accept command from PC, error code ‘OOH+’YYH’ is sent back.

(in a case when command code ‘2xH’, ‘3xH’ or ‘4xH’+’yyH’+data is sent from PC to projector)

The example of data error

When projector cannot accept command from PC, error code with data ‘OOH’+’yyH’+data is sent back as it
is. (in a case when command code ‘2xH’, ‘3xH’ or ‘4xH’+’yyH+data is sent from PC to projector)
When data is longer than required data code length, projector ignores excess data code.
When data is shorter than required data code length, projector sends back error code shown above.

The example of framing error

Projector sends error code ‘70H’+’70H’ up to 10 times at intervals of 1 second until any answer is received.

The interval of command bytes and data bytes

After command code ‘2xH’, ‘3xH’ or ‘4xH’ is sent from PC, if command or data is not sent within 500ms,
projector sends back error command ‘70H+70H. If no answer is sent within 1 second from that time,
framing error is assumed.

@i9

. The interval of command bytes and data bytes must be over 1mS and under 500mS. If it is

under lmS, it may be treat as framing error.

. After projector has sent back answer code, when next command is to be sent from PC, allow

for an interval of 40ms or more between answer code and other code.

5 Install the lamp cover and fix it using screws.

To prevent burn, install the lamp cover and secure it using the screws.

. Do not turn on the power with lamp cover removed.

Whenever the lamp is replaced, reset the total operation time of the lamp. Do not reset if

.

the lamp has not been replaced. Q

. Do not perform resetting without changing the lamp, as this can cause lamp breakage.

2. Reset the lamp time

If you have replaced the lamp aiter the lamp replacement time had expired, perform the procedure
explained below within 10 minutes after the power is turned on. The power will turn off automatically
