SAFETY SUMMARY
Please read these instructions carefully before using your
LitePro 720 or 730. Failure to comply with them could result in
fire, electrical shock, personal injury or damage to equipment.
These graphics are used throughout this manual to draw your
attention to important information about the projectors.
NOTE: Additional useful details or tips.
CAUTION: Steps to take to avoid damage to your equipment.
WARNING: Steps to take to avoid personal injury.
These graphics are used on LitePro labels.
Attention - Refer to this User’s Guide for important
safety information.
Hot Surfaces - Avoid touching hot surfaces. Do not
touch until the LitePro has cooled.
Do Not Look Into The Lens!
Be extremely car eful not to lo ok into the projection lens when the
LitePro is turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes. Be
especially careful to keep children from looking into the lens.
Power Source
Use only a three-wire grounding type power source. The power
source should not exceed 250 volts rms between the supply conductors or between either conductor and the ground.
Power Cord
Use only the power cord that was shipped with the LitePro.
Although other power cords might be similar in appearance, they
have not been safety-tested with the projector. Do not use a
power cord if it has become damaged or frayed. Contact your In
Focus dealer or call In Focus if you need to replace your power
cord.

Safety Summary
Grounding
The projector is grounded through the grounding conductor on
the power cord. T o avoid electric shock, plug the power cord into
a properly wired receptacle. Do not defeat the purpose of the
grounding-type plug.
Lamp
To avoid overheating and unacceptable image quality, replace the
projection lamp with a lamp of the specified type. Refer to
page 51 for lamp specifications and to page 41 for instructions on
replacing the lamp.
Lamp Compartment
To avoid burns, do not open the lamp module door until the projector is turned off and the lamp has cooled for at least 2 minutes.
Follow the instructions in this manual for lamp replacement carefully.
NOTE: If you open the LitePro
case, you will void the warranty.
Hot Surfaces
Allow the projector to cool at least 2 minutes before replacing a
lamp. When you open the lamp housing, be very careful not to
touch the hot surfaces inside.
Ventilation and Overheating
Openings in the projector case provide ventilation to protect it
from overheating. Keep loose pa pers and oth er objects well away
from the grills. Do not place the projector on top of or close to a
computer or other heat-producing equipment.
Liquid Spills
Do not set drinks on top of the projector. Spilled liquids can flow
inside and cause damage.
Do Not Disassemble
All LitePro service must be performed by an authorized In Focus
service center. The only user-serviceable part in the LitePro is the
projection lamp, which you can replace by opening the lamp
cover on the bottom of the projector (see page 41). Do not open
any other part of the LitePro. If your LitePro needs repair, call In
Focus Technical Support as described on page 5. Before you call
Technical Support, you may want to refer to “Troubleshooting”
starting on page 45 to see if you can resolve the problem yourself.

USING THE PROJECTOR
This section describes how to use and make adjustments to the
projector. It also provides a reference to the keypad buttons and
the options available from the on-screen menus.
Basic Image Adjustment
1 Make sure you have powered up your equipment in the right
order (page 21).
2 If the image doesn’t display completely, adjust the height and
tilt of the projector (page 25), zoom the image (page 25), or
center the image by adjusting its horizontal or vertical position (page 36).
3 If the image is out of focus, rotate the lens to focus it (page 25).
4 If the image appears to shimmer or if it has blu r ry vert ical
bars after you have adjusted the focus, turn Auto Image
(page 35) off and then back on to reset the automatic sync and
tracking. If that doesn’t clear up the image, adjust the sync
(page 36) and/or the tracking (page 36) manually.
5 If the colors don’t look right, adjust the brightness (page 27)
and tint (page 31).
Using the Remote Control
Point the remote control at the projection screen or at the front or
rear of the projector. The range for optimum operation is about
40 feet. If you point the remote at the projection screen, the distance to the screen and back to the projector must be less than or
equal to 40 feet. For best results, point the remote directly at the
front or the rear of the projector.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you’re experiencing trouble with the projector, follow these
steps to make sure everything is properly connected before you
call Technical Support for assistance.
1 Check cable connections. Verify that all computer, CableWiz-
ard and power cables are properly connected.
2 Verify that all power is switched on.
3 Verify that the projector has not been switched off with the
standby
button on the keypad.
4 If the projector still doesn’t display an image, restart the com-
puter.
5 If the problem still exists, unplug the projector from the com-
puter and check the computer monitor’s display. The maximum resolution that the 720 can display is 1024x768 pixels,
preferably 800x600; the maximum resolution that the 730 can
display is 1280x1024 pixels, preferably 1024x768. The problem
might be with the graphics controller in your computer rather
than with the projector. When you reconnect the projector,
remember to turn the computer and monitor off before you
power up the projector. Power the equipment back up in this
order: projector, monitor, computer.
NOTE: Macintosh computers
require a specific power-up
sequence: the projector must be
turned on before you turn on th e
computer.
6 If you’re using a laptop computer and its monitor is not dis-
playing your presentation, make sure you have re-activated
the computer’s monitor. Most laptop computers de-activate
their own monitor when a second display device, such as the
projector, is connected. Refer to page 55 for more information.
7 If the problem still exists, read through the problems and solu-
tions in this chapter.
If you call Technical Support for assistance:
•
Find out what kind of graphics controller card is installed in
your computer. This is the circuit board in the computer to
which the projector is connected.
45

Troubleshooting
Solutions to Common Problems
Problem: Nothing on projection screen
•
Make sure that the power cord is properly connected to a functional AC electrical outlet. Make sure that the power cord is
also properly connected to the projector.
•
If the projector is plugged into a power strip, make sure the
power strip is turned on.
•
Make sure you have removed the lens cap on the projection
lens at the front of the projector.
•
Make sure the projector is switched on.
•
Check the projector’s lamp to ensure that it is securely connected in the lamp module. See “Replacing the Projection
Lamp” on page 41.
•
Make sure that the CableWizard and the cables do not have
any bent pins. Check the power cord for bent pins also.
Problem: Color or text not being projected
•
You might need to adjust the brightness up or down until the
text is visible. Refer to “Brightness” on page 27 for more information.
•
Verify that the appropriate input source is selected. See “Computer” on page 27 or “Video” on page 29.
Problem: The screen resolution is not right
•
Make sure the computer’s graphics card is set for a resolution
of no greater than 1024x768 for the 720, 1280x1024 for the 730.
Problem: Image isn’t centered on the screen
•
Reposition the image. Refer to “Ho r iz. Position” on page 36
and “Vert. Position” on page 36.
•
If you’re using an extension cable between the CableWizard
and the projector, make sure it’s In Focus-approved.
46
Problem: Only the start-up screen displays
•
Verify that the cables are connected correctly. Check to see that
the CableWizard computer cable is correctly connected to the
Page 49
monitor connector on the computer (this is the connector
where your monitor cable usually goes.) See page 8 through
page 17 for connection procedures.
•
Verify that the proper input source is connected. See “Computer” on page 27 or “Video” on page 29.
•
You might need to turn everything off and power up the equipment again. Make sure you power up in this order: projector,
computer monitor, computer. It is especially important that
you follow this sequence for Macintosh computers.
•
Make sure your computer’s graphi cs board is installed and
configured correctly.
If you’re using Windows 3.x:
1 In the Windows Program Manager, double-click the Win-
dows Setup icon in the Main program group.
2 Verify that the Display setting is 1024x768 or less for the
720, 1280x1024 or less for the 730.
If you’re using Windows 95:
1 Open “My Computer” icon, the Control Panel folder and
then the Display icon.
2 Click the Settings tab.
3 Verify that the Desktop area is set to 1024x768 or less for
the 720, 1280x1024 or less for the 730.
Also check the following:
•
Does your computer have a compatible graphics board? The
projector isn’t CGA or EGA compatible.
•
Is your computer’s graphics board turned on? This is especially true for laptop computers. See “Portable and Laptop
Activation Chart” on page 55.
Problem: Image is too wide or narrow for screen
•
Yo u mi ght need to manually adjust the tracking to reduce or
enlarge the projected image. Refer to “Manual Tracking” on
page 36.

Page 50
Troubleshooting
•
Adjust the resolution of your monitor if it’s greater than
1024x768 pixels for the 720 or 1280x1024 for the 730. Only these
resolutions at 75 Hz or less will display on the projector.
Problem: Image is out of focus
•
Turn the projection lens to focus the image.
•
Make sure the projection screen is at least 4 feet (1.2m) from the
projector .
•
Check the projection lens to see if it needs cleaning.
Problem: Image and menus are reversed left to right
•
Rear projection mode is pro bably turned on. Switch back to forward projection from the Controls menu. The image should
immediately return to forward projection. See “Rear Projection” on page 38.
Problem: Image and menus are upside down
•
Ceiling mode is probably turned on. Turn off the mode from
the Controls menu. The image should immediately return to
forward projection. See “Ceiling” on page 38.
Problem: the projector displays vertical lines, “bleeding” or spots
•
Adjust the brightness. See “Brightness” on page 27.
•
Check the projection lens to see if it needs cleaning.
Problem: no sound
•
Press the mute button.
•
Adjust volume.
•

Using Video Mirroring with a PowerBook Computer
When you turn video mirroring on, the projector displays the
same information that appears on your PowerBook’s built-in
screen. When video mirrorin g is off , the pr ojecto r acts like a separate display.
To turn on video mirroring for the first time:
1 Open the Monitors control panel; click on Monitor 2.
2 Set the number of colors you want.
3 Open the Control Strip; click on the monitor icon.
4 Select “Turn Video Mirroring On.”
Now you can turn video mirroring on and off from the Control
Strip without having to o p en the Monitors control panel again.
When using video mirroring and high color graphics such as
slide shows, the projected image occasiona lly might turn black
and white. If this happens, perform th e fol lowing steps:
1 Turn off video mirroring.
2 Open the Monitors control panel.
3 Move the white menu bar to Monitor 2 to set the projector as
the primary monitor.
4 Res tart the PowerBook.
