Important Operating Considerations for Safety

• Refer to this guide for proper startup and shutdown procedures.

• Follow all warnings and cautions in this manual and on the projector.

• Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 15 degrees off axis.

• Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2m) away from any heating or cooling vents.

• Do not block ventilation openings. Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without obstructions to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or other soft covering that may block the vents.

• Do not place the projector in direct sunlight, humid, greasy or dusty places or in places where the projector may come into contact with smoke or steam.

• Do not touch or block the projector lens with any objects as this can damage the projector lens. Scratches, gouges and other lens damage are not covered by the product warranty.

• Do not look directly into the lens while the projector is being used.

• Do not drop the projector.

• Do not spill liquid on the projector. Spilled liquid may damage the projector.

• Use the power cord provided. Connect the power cord to a receptacle with a protective safety (earth) ground terminal. A surge-protected power strip is recommended.

• Do not overload wall outlets.

• When disconnecting the power cord, hold the plug, not the cord.

• Wash hands after handling the cables supplied with this product.

• The projector remote control uses batteries. Make sure the batteries’ polarity (+/-) is aligned correctly. Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local disposal laws.

• Use an InFocus approved ceiling mount kit for proper fitting, ventilation and installation. The warranty does not cover any damage caused by use of nonapproved ceiling mount kits or by installing in an improper location.

• When the projector is ceiling mounted, wear protective eyewear to prevent eye injury before opening lamp door.

• Refer all service to qualified service personnel. Servicing your own projector can be dangerous to you and will void the warranty.

• Only use replacement parts specified by InFocus. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electrical shock, or injury, and may void the warranty

• Only genuine InFocus lamps are tested for use in this projector. Use of non InFocus lamps may cause electrical shock and fire, and may void the projector warranty.

• Hg – Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance with local disposal laws. See www.lamprecycle.org.

• The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp may fail prematurely, or it may rupture with a popping sound if jolted, scratched, or handled while hot. The risk of lamp failure or rupture also increases as the lamp age increases; please replace the lamp when you see the “Replace Lamp” message.

• In the unlikely event of a lamp rupture, particles may exit through the projector vents. Please keep people, food, and drinks at least 3’ (1m) away from all projector vents. For ceiling applications, keep people, food and drinks out of the "keep out" area under and around the projector, as indicated by the illustration.

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. IN2128HDa must be at least 37.5” (1.0m) from the projection screen.

• If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, we strongly recommend using 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.

VGA connection

Connect one end of the provided computer cable to the Computer 1/Computer 2 connector on the projector and the other to the VGA connector on your computer. If you are using a desktop computer, you will need to disconnect the monitor cable from the computer’s video port first.

USB Mini-B connection

No start up screen? Get help on page 13.

Turn on your computer or video device.

The image should appear on the projection screen. If it doesn’t, press the Source button on the projector’s keypad or remote.

If you are using a VGA cable to connect your computer to the projector:

If using a laptop, make sure its external video port is active.

Many laptops do not automatically turn on their external video port when a projector is connected. Usually a key combination like FN + F8 or CRT/LCD key turns the external display on and off. Locate a function key labeled CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol. Press FN and the labeled function key simultaneously.

Refer to your laptop's documentation for more information about your laptop's key combination.

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

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 projector.

Video connector on the

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.

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 Y-cable or adapter may be used. (Note: A separate audio connection is not required for HDMI source inputs.)

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.

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.

The Status Indicator Lights on top of the projector indicates the state of the projector and can help you troubleshoot

Table 2: Indicator Lights

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.
