NOTE About Plug-and-Play Capability

This projector is compatible with VESA DDC 1/2B. Plug-and-Play can be achieved by connecting this projector to computers that are VESA DDC (display data channel) compatible. Please take advantage of this function by connecting the accessory RGB cable to the RGB IN 1 port (DDC 1/2B compatible). Plug-and-Play may not work properly if any other type of connection is attempted.

Plug-and-Play is a system composed of the computer, its operating system and peripheral equipment (i.e. display devices).

Please use the standard drivers as this projector is a Plug-and-Play monitor.

Plug-and-Play may not function properly with some type of computers. Use the RGB IN 2 port if Plug-and-Play does not function correctly.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROL

Putting batteries into the remote control unit

CAUTION Precautions to observe in regards to the batteries

Always handle the batteries with care and use them only as directed. Improper use may result in battery cracking or leakage, which could result in fire, injury and/or pollution of the surrounding environment.

Keep the battery away from children and pets.

Be sure to use only the batteries specified for use with the remote control. Do not mix new batteries with used ones.

When inserting batteries, verify that the plus and minus terminals are aligned correctly (as indicated in the remote control).

When you dispose the battery, you should obey the law in the relative area or country.

Slide back and remove the battery cover in the direction of the arrow.

batteries (that came with the projector) according to their plus and minus terminals (as indicated

in the remote control).

3 Closecover the battery

Replace the battery cover in the direction of the arrow and snap it back into place.

ENGLISH

Operating the remote control

The remote control works with both the projector's front and rear remote sensors.

The range of the remote sensor on the front and back is 3 meters with a 60-degree range (30 degrees to the left and right of the remote sensor).

Since the remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1 LED), be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote control's output signal to the projector.

ATTENTION Precautions to observe when using the remote control

Do not drop or otherwise expose the remote control to physical impact.

Do not get the remote control wet or place it on wet objects. Doing so may result in malfunction.

Remove the batteries from the remote control and store them in a safe place if you won't be using the remote control for an extended period.

Replace the batteries whenever the remote control starts to malfunction.

When strong light, such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close range (such as from an inverter fluorescent lamp), hits the projector's remote sensor, the remote control may cease to function. Adjust the direction of the projector to keep light from directly hitting the projector's remote sensor.
