Attention

- Refer to the User’s Guide for important safety

information.

Fuse

- Refer to “Replacing the Fuse” on page 31 of this

User’s Guide for important safety information.

Hot Surface

- Do not touch until the LitePro has cooled.

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 LitePro. Never 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 LitePro power cord.

LitePro 760 User’s Guide i

Safety Summary

Grounding

The LitePro is grounded through the grounding conductor on the
power cord. To avoid electric shock, plug the power cord into a
properly wired receptacle. Do not defeat the purpose of the
grounding-type plug.

Fuse

For protection against the risk of fire, use only a fuse of the specified
type. Refer to page 41 for more information about fuse specifications
and to page 31 for instructions on replacing the fuse.

Lamp

To avoid overheating and unacceptable image quality, replace the
projection lamp with a lamp of the specified type. Refer to page 41 for
lamp specifications and to page 28 for instructions on replacing the
lamps.

Hot Surfaces

The rear of the LitePro becomes very hot during operation. Avoid
touching the exhaust grill on the lamp door. Allow the LitePro to
cools for at least 20 minutes before replacing a lamp. When you open
the lamp door, be very careful not to touch the hot surfaces inside.

Ventilation and Overheating

Openings in the LitePro case provide ventilation to protect it from
overheating. Keep loose papers and other objects well away from the
sides and back of the LitePro. Never operate the LitePro when the
lamp door is open; this disrupts the cooling air flow inside and can
cause the LitePro to overheat. Do not place the LitePro on top of or
close to the computer or other heat-producing equipment.

Liquid Spills

Do not set drinks on top of the LitePro. Spilled liquids can flow inside
and damage the LitePro.

Do Not Disassemble

The only user-serviceable parts on the LitePro are inside the lamp
door at the rear. Do not open any other part of the LitePro. Opening
the LitePro case will expose you to electric shock hazard. All service
must be performed by an authorized In Focus service center.

Using the Remote Control

To use the remote control, point it at the projection screen or at the
front of the LitePro. The range for optimum operation of the remote
control is a total of about 25 feet. If you point the remote at the
projection screen, the distance to the screen and back to the LitePro
should equal 25 feet.

Focusing the Image

To focus the image, rotate the projection lens until the image is clear.
Rotate the lens clockwise for a longer focusing distance. Rotate it
counterclockwise for a shorter focusing distance.

LitePro 760 User’s Guide 17

Using the LitePro 760

Trac k

The Track function adjusts the LitePro 760’s internal clock to match
the signal from your computer. The projector usually adjusts the
tracking automatically when you connect your computer. However, if
the display shows evenly spaced, fuzzy, vertical lines or if the
projected image is too wide or too narrow for the screen, you might
be able to improve the image by adjusting the tracking manually.

Contrast

Adjusting the contrast setting affects the amount of white in the
projected image. Adjust the contrast if the white areas do not appear
to be solid white.

Language

Changes the language in which the menu is displayed. You can
choose English, French, German, Spanish or Italian. The default is
English.

Rear Projection

When you select Rear Project, the LitePro 760 reverses the image so
you can project from behind the screen as shown here.

Colors

The Colors function allows you to change the number of displayable
colors. You can select 8 or 24,389 displayable colors. The default is
24,389 colors.

Inverse

When you select Inverse, the LitePro switches all the colors of the
image so that their opposites are displayed instead. Inverting the
image colors is generally used with monochrome images.

The LitePro was shipped with two projection lamps. To avoid
breaking during shipping, they are not installed in the LitePro at the
factory. You must install them before you can use the LitePro. Refer to
the “Read Me First” document that was shipped with your LitePro.
“Replacing the Projection Lamps” on page 28 also describes this
procedure.

When both lamps are installed in the LitePro, only one is used at a
time. The other is available as a spare for when the active lamp fails.
The average lamp life is 50 hours per lamp.

To switch from the active lamp to the spare lamp:

• Gently slide the lamp changer knob to the other side of the
projector as shown here.

24 LitePro 760 User’s Guide

When switching lamps, be careful not to touch the exhaust

grill on the door. This area is very hot when the projector

is operating.

Do not switch the lamp changer back and forth rapidly.

This can damage the lamp filaments and shorten the life of

the lamp.

Opening the case will expose you to electric shock hazard.

Except for the projection lamps, there are no user-

serviceable parts inside! If you are having problems with

your LitePro, refer to the “Troubleshooting” section of

this manual. Call In Focus Technical Support if necessary.

If your LitePro needs repair, they will refer you to an In

Focus Authorized Service Provider.

Cleaning the Lens

Follow these steps to clean the projection lens.

Apply a non-abrasive glass cleaner to a soft, dry cleaning cloth.

1.

• Be careful not to use excessive amounts of cleaner.

Maintenance

Replacing the Projection Lamps

When a lamp fails, be sure to replace it with another EVD bulb (36
volt, 400 watt) from General Electric or OSRAM. These bulbs provide
the best performance and longest bulb life.

You can order replacement lamps from In Focus. Refer to
“Accessories” on page 43 for information.

Follow these steps to replace the lamps.

Press the “0” side of the LitePro’s power switch. Then, allow the

1.

LitePro to cool thoroughly (at least 20 minutes).

Allow the LitePro to cool for at least 20 minutes before

you attempt to open the lamp door! The inside of the

LitePro lamp housing can become very hot. Use extreme

care.

While you’re waiting for the LitePro to cool, find a clean soft

2.

cloth that you can use to hold the bulbs. You can also use the plas­tic bag that came with the lamp. Holding a bulb with your bare
fingers can damage the bulb and shorten its life.

Disconnect the power cord from the LitePro.

3.

Open the lamp door. To do this, push in on the two buttons as

4.

shown below, then lift the door up.

Hold the lamp door open with one hand.

Close the lamp door.

11.

Never operate the LitePro with the lamp door open or removed.

LitePro 760 User’s Guide 29

This disrupts the airflow, causing it to overheat.

Maintenance

Bulb Guard

Your LitePro is equipped with a bulb life detection system called Bulb
Guard. When the operating bulb is near the end of its life or has
become degraded, Bulb Guard causes the lamp to blink. When this
happens, switch to the spare lamp. After you have finished your
presentation and the LitePro has cooled, replace the old lamp with a
new one.

Replacing Batteries in the Remote Control

Follow these steps to replace the batteries.

Turn the remote face down in your hand.

Replacing the Fuse

A power line surge or spike can blow the power supply fuse and
cause the LitePro to stop working. If this happens, you’ll need to
replace the fuse.

Use only the specified power supply fuse. Using a different

The correct fuse for your LitePro depends on the power line voltage
in the country where you are operating the LitePro.

• If your line voltage is 220V to 240V (as in most European
countries), use a 6.3 amp, 250V, 5x20 mm fuse.

• If your line voltage is 100V to 120V (as in Japan, the United States
and most North American countries), use a 10 amp, 250V, 3AB
