Positioning the projector

To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment. Here are some general guidelines:
Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. IN112a/ IN112aT and IN114a/IN114aT must be at least 45.3” (1.2m) from the projection screen, IN116a must be at least 55.4” (1.4m) from the projection screen, IN114STa must be at least 15” (0.4m) from the projection screen, IN118HDa must be at least 37.5” (1.0m) from the projection screen, and IN118HDSTa must be at least 30.6” (0.78m) from the projection screen.
If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, we stro InFocus approved ceiling mounts for proper fitting, ventilation and installation. Refer to the installation guide that comes with the InFocus Ceiling Mount Kit (p/n PRJ-MNT-UNIV) for more information. The warranty does not cover any damage caused by use of non-approved ceiling mount kits or by installing in an improper location. To turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling mount” on page 28. We recommend using an InFocus authorized ceiling mount.
Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance from the
lens of the projector to the screen and the video format determine the size of
the projected image.

Connecting a video device

You can connect video devices such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video game consoles, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. You can connect the audio directly to the projector to get sound from the built-in speaker, or you can bypass the projector’s audio system and connect the audio directly from your source to a stereo or home theater system.
You can connect the projector to most video devices that can output video. You cannot directly connect the coaxial cable that enters your house from a cable or satellite company, the signal must pass through a tuner first. Examples of tuners are digital cable boxes, VCRs, digital video recorders, and satellite TV boxes. Basically, any device that can change channels is considered a tuner.
Before connecting your projector, you should decide which aspect ratio you want to
use. The projector’s Aspect Ratio setting is accessed through the Resize button on the remote or through the projector’s Basic Menu. See page 26 for more information.

Video device connections

No video cables are provided with the projector. You can order cables from InFocus or provide your own.

HDMI connection

HDMI is a standard, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between sources, such as set-top boxes, DVD players, and receivers and your projector. Plug an HDMI cable into the video-out connector on the video device and into the HDMI connector on the projector.
NOTE: The IN112aT/IN114aT do not have an HDMI connector.

VGA connection

If your video device has a 15-pin VGA output, plug one end of the included computer cable into the VGA connector on your video source. This connector may be labeled “To Monitor” on the video source. Plug the computer cable into either the Computer 1 or Computer 2 connector on the projector.

Component video connection

If your HD video device has component connectors, an optional Component to VGA adapter can be used. Plug the component cable into the video device. Plug the other end of the component cable into the adapter and plug the adapter into the Computer 1 or Computer 2 connector.

S-video connection

Plug the S-video cable’s connector into the video-out connector on the video device. Plug the other connector into the S-Video connector on the projector.
NOTE: The IN112aT/IN114aT do not have an S-video connector.

Audio

For audio, connect a 3.5mm stereo cable to the Audio 1/Audio 2 connector on the projector and to your source. If your source uses RCA audio connectors, a Y­cable or adapter may be used. (Note: A separate audio connection is not required for HDMI source inputs.)

Composite video connection

Plug the composite video cable’s yellow connector into the video-out connector on the video device. Plug the other yellow connector into the yellow Video connector on the projector.
NOTE: The IN112aT/IN114aT do not have a composite connector.

Shutting down the projector

Auto Off Time
The projector also has an Auto Off Time feature that automatically turns the projector off after no active sources are detected and no user interaction with the projector is performed for 30 minutes. By default, this feature is off. You can change the length of time, see page 30.
Turning off the projector
To turn the projector off, press the Power button on the remote or keypad. The lamp turns off and the Power LED blinks blue for 30 seconds while the fans continue to run to cool the lamp. If the Power Saving Mode feature is on and when the lamp has cooled, the LED lights blue and the fans stop. If the Power Saving Mode feature is off and when the lamp has cooled, the LED blinks blue and the fans stop. Unplug the power cable to completely power off the projector.

Troubleshooting your setup

If your image appears correctly on the screen, skip to the next section. If it does not, troubleshoot the setup.
