12 volt DC outputs

The 3.5mm mini-jack triggers provide a 12 volt, 0.25 amp DC output. They provide a constant output while the projector is on. They are typically used for screen control. For example, if you connect your projection screen to the vertical screen trigger with the cable that came with your screen, when you turn on the projector the screen will move down; when you turn the projector off, the screen will return to the storage position. The horizontal screen trigger output can be used to control curtains or an adjustable aspect ratio screen.

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 guidelines:

• Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The projector must be at least 4.9 feet (1.5m) from the projection screen.

• For safety reasons, position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source (running extension cables may introduce a trip hazard). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object.

• If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, refer to the installation guide that comes with the Ceiling Mount Kit for more information. To turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” on page 24. 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, the zoom setting, and the video format determine the size of the projected image.

• The image offset is 136%. This means that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 3.6’ above the center of the lens.

Choosing the aspect ratio

Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. HDTV and most DVDs are 16:9, which is the default for this projector. When in 4:3 mode the projector places black bars on both sides of the image. Native mode centers the image and turns off the internal scaler so that any resolution larger than the native projector resolution is cropped on the edges. Letterbox expands the image to fill the screen.

What you plan to project will also help you choose between 4:3 and 16:9. For example, most TV shows are 4:3, while most movies are 16:9. If you have a 16:9 screen, then you should select an aspect ratio of 16:9 for anamorphic movies and HDTV, and Native for 4:3 content. If you have a 4:3 screen you should still use 16:9 for anamorphic movies or HDTV, but you also have the option of using 4:3, Native, or Natural Wide for 4:3 content. Keep in mind that anamorphic movies only appear correctly if the DVD player is set to output to a 16:9 television. Natural Wide stretches a 4:3 image to fill the entire 16:9 screen. The center two-thirds of the image is unchanged; the edges of the image are stretched.

NOTE: If you purchase an optional anamorphic lens, select the Letterbox option to achieve the 2.35:1 aspect ratio.

Connecting a video device

You can connect video devices such as HDTV receivers, HD-DVD players, VCRs, camcorders, digital cameras, video game consoles, and TV tuners to the projector. Connect the audio from your video device to your stereo system to get sound.

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.

Video connectors

The first step for connecting video is determining what type of output connectors your video device has. If there is more than one output, select the one with the highest quality. The best quality ranking, with 1 being the highest, is:

1 HDMI or M1-DA/DVI (both are digital inputs)

2 component RGB video (RCAs)

3 S-video

4 composite video (RCA)

If your device has a VGA connector, you can use an optional M1-DA/DVI connector for a high quality image. You can use the included M1-DA to HDMI adapter to connect a second HDMI source.

For detailed information on supported video formats, see page 30.

Digital connections

The M1-DA/DVI and HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) connectors are digital and yield the highest quality image. It is common for these signals to be encrypted with HDCP (high-bandwidth digital-content protection). Your new pro- jector ships standard with decryption codes so you can enjoy these high quality, all digital images.

This projector features the M1-DA connector, which has the following advantages:

• allows connection to a second DVI source

• allows connection to second component source

• allows connection to an analog computer source (VGA)

• has output pins that can power accessories.

This is an HDTV (High Definition Television) monitor, meaning it has vertical scan- ning lines of 720 progressive, 1080 interlaced or higher.

HDMI 1.3 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.

To take advantage of HDMI 1.3 Deep Color (30 bit) you must have a 1.3-compatible source.

Note that the projector has no audio capabilities, so audio signals transferred through HDMI will not be audible.

DVI connection

If your video device uses a DVI connector, plug the DVI end of an M1-DA cable into the video-out connector on the video device. This connector may be labeled “To Monitor” on the video device. Plug the M1-DA end of the cable into the M1-

DA/DVI connector on the projector.

Component (RCA) connection

If your device uses component connectors, plug a component video cable with red, green, and blue RCA connectors into the source device’s component connectors and the Component connectors on the projector.

S-video connection

If your video device uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, plug the S-video cable into the S-video connector on your video device and into the S-

video connector on the projector.

Computer connections

You can connect a computer’s VGA connector to the M1-DA/DVI input on the projector using an M1-A cable.

RS-232 connections

You can control the projector from an LCD control panel or computer by connecting an RS-232 cable to the projector’s Serial control connector. Specific RS232 commands can be found in the Service section of our website at www.info-

cus.com/support.

Composite (RCA) 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 Composite connector on the projector.
