Introduction
Usage Guidel ines
Do not look directly into the projection lens when the projector is turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes.
Do not block the grills on the projector. Do not place the projec­tor on cloth table coverings, as they may get sucked up to the vents. Restricting the air flow can cause the projector to over­heat and turn off.
Handle the projector as you would any product with glass components. Be especially careful not to drop it.
Avoid leaving the projector in direct sunlight or extreme cold for extended periods of time. If this happens, allow it to reach room temperature before use.
This projector is not intended for use in mainframe computer rooms as defined in the Standard for the Protection of Elec­tronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment, ANSI/NFPA 75.
Transport the projector in a vendor-appro ved h ard or soft case. Part numbers for these cases are listed on page 47. Call your In Focus dealer to order.

SETTING UP THE PROJECTOR
Place the projector on a flat surface.
1
The projector must be within 7.5 feet (2.3 m) of your power source.
If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, refer to the
LP 1000 Series Ceiling Mount Installation Guide
that comes with the Ceiling Mount Kit for more information. To turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” on page 34. The Ceil­ing Mount Kit is sold separately; see page 48.
Position the projector the desired distance from the screen.
2
The distance from the lens of the pr oj ector to the scr een and the zoom lens setting determine the size of the projected image. Table 1 shows example projected image sizes and minimum and max im um distances to the screen.
The formulas for distance to the screen are:
Max distance (ft) = diagonal image size (ft) ÷ .541 Min distance (ft) = diagonal image size (ft) ÷ .716
NO TE: An optional extension cable, sold separately, lets you increase the distance between the projector and your computer to 70 feet (21 m). See “Optional Accessories” on page 47.

The LP 1000 is equipped with a lens shift feature that allows you to adjust the projection height (move the image along the wall) without moving the projector, while still maintaining a perfectly square image. Turn the lens shift knob on top of the projector to make this adjustment (see Figure 3 on page 3).
The bottom of the image can move from half way below the pro­jector’s lens (Figure 5) to 25% above the lens (Figure 6).
Example:
With a 10’ image, at the lowest projection angle, the bot­tom of the image is 5’ below the projector’s lens; at the highest projection angle, the bottom of the image is 2.5’ above the lens.

USING THE PROJECTOR
This section describes how to use and make adjustments to the projector. It also provides a reference to the remote and keypad buttons and the options available from the on-screen menus.
Basic Image Adjustment
Make sure you have powered up your equipment in the right
1
order (page 16). If the image doesn’t display completely, adjust the height and
2
tilt of the projector (page 20), zoom the image (page 20), or center the image by adjusting its horizontal or vertical posi­tion (page 32).
If the image is out of focus, rotate the lens to focus it (page 20).
3
If the image appears to shimmer or if it has blurry vertical
4
bars after you have adjusted the focus, turn Auto Image (page 31) off and then back on to reset the automatic sync and tracking. If that doesn’t clear up the image, adjust the sync (page 32) and/or the tracking (page 32) manually.
If the colors don’t look right, adjust the brightness, contrast,
5
and tint (page 27), and color and color temperature (page 28.
NOTE: In Focus has created a software program called In Focus Presents that automatically opti­mizes your computer’s display when used with any In Focus pro­jector. This free program is included with every projector and available for download from our website at www.infocus.com.

Using the Remote Control
Point the remote control at the projection screen or at the projec­tor. The range for optimum operation is about 30 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 30 feet. For best results, point the remote directly at the projector.
If you have purchased the optional CableWizard and are creating presentations in Microsoft
®
PowerPoint®, you can use the remote’s mouse buttons to navigate through your presentation while in Slide Show mode. To configure PowerPoint for this, choose Options from the Tools menu, click the View Tab, de­select the “Popup Menu on Right Mouse Click” optio n in the Slide Show section, then click OK. Then, when you’re in Power­Point’s Slide Show mode, a left click advances to the next slide and a right click returns to the previous slide (other PowerPoint modes are not affected).
NO TE: If you can’t aim the remote control at the projector so that its signal is received — for example, when using rear projec­tion or in a large auditorium— connect it directly to the projector with the optional remote control cable.
NO TE: If you want mouse control of the Computer 3 input, purchase the optional CableWizard. If you want mouse control of the Com­puter 1 or 2 inputs, purchase an optional remote and receiver. See “Optional Accessories” on page 48.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
This section describes how to:
clean the lens
clean the fan intake filter
replace the projection lamp
replace the batteries in the remote control
use the Kensington lock feature
troubleshoot the projector
Cleaning the Lens
Follow these steps to clean the projection lens:
Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner to a soft, dry cloth.
1
Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner.
Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals might scratch the lens.
Lightly wipe the cleaning cloth over the lens.
2
If you don’t intend to use the projector immediately, replace
3
the lens cap.
Cleaning the Fan Intake Filter
The fan intake filter on the bottom of the projector catches dust and particles in the air. If the filter becomes clogged, the projector does not cool properly and may malfunction. To prevent this, clean the filter after every 100 hours of use.
Turn off the power and unplug the power cord.
1
Remove the filter door.
2
Slide the door off by the tab (Figure 26).
NO TE: If your projector is ceiling­mounted, refer to the LP 1000 Ceiling Mount Guide for instruc­tions on removing the fan intake filter.

Replacing the Projection Lamp
The LP 1000 is designed so you can easily change the projection lamp. The lamp hour counter on the status bar at the top of the menus (page 26) counts the number of hours the lamp has been in use. Replace the lamp when the brightness is no longer accept­able. You can order new lamp modules from your In Focus dealer. See “Accessories” on page 47 for information.
Follow these steps to replace the projection lamp:
Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
1
Wait 30 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.
2
Using a small, flat-blade screwdriver, remove the screw on the
3
outside of the lamp door. Pull the lamp door up and remove it.
4
Loosen the two non-removable screws on the outside of the
5
module.
WARNING: To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 30 minutes before you open the lamp module door. Never extract the lamp module while the lamp is operating.
CAUTION: Never operate the projector with the lamp cover open or removed. This disrupts the air flow and causes the projector to overheat.

Using Video Mirroring with a PowerBook Computer
When you turn video mirroring (called SimulScan in newer Pow­erBooks-see below) on, the projector displays the same informa­tion that appears on your PowerBook’s built-in screen. When video mirroring is off, the projector 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 open the Monitors control panel again.
When using video mirroring and high color graphics such as slide shows, the projected image occasionally might turn black and white. If this happens, perform the following 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 Restart the PowerBook.
Using SimulScan
Some newer PowerBooks display images on an external monitor or projector differently than previous ones. When using SimulScan, the projector displays the same information that appears on your PowerBook
To select SimulScan:
1 Open the Control Panel, then double-click Monitors and
Sound.
2 In the Resolution list, choose the SimulScan mode, then click
OK.
3 If this cha nges your display settings, a dialog box appears.
Click OK to confirm the change.

Projected Image Size for Optional Lenses
There is one long throw lens and three short throw lenses avail­able. The short throw lenses are specific for certain focus dis­tances. HW-LENS-ST1 has a focus distance of (0.9-1.5 m); HW-LENS-ST2 has a focus distance of
3 feet to 4.9 feet
4.9 feet to 8.5
feet (1.5-2.6 m); HW-LENS-ST3 has a focus distance of 8.2 feet to
11.8 feet (2.5-3.6 m).
NOTE: The lens shift is not
adjustable on the optional short
throw lens. It is fixed at zero
degrees.

RS232 Terminal Specifications
Communication configuration
To control the LP 1000 from an LCD control panel, connect the RS232 cable and set your computer’s serial port settings to match this communication configuration:
Setting Value
Bits per second 19,200 Data bits 8 Parity None Stop bits 1 Flow control None Emulation VT100
Command format
All commands consist of 3 alpha characters followed by a request, all enclosed in parentheses. The request can be a read request (indicat ed by a “?”) or a wr ite r eques t (indi cated by 1 to 4 ASCII digits).
A read request format : (AAA?) where
( starts the command AAA denotes the command ? denotes the read request )ends the command
A read command returns the range and the current setting, for example:
Function Command Response
Brightness (BRT?) (0-22, 10) Volume (VOL?) (0-80, 0) Lamp hours (LMP?) (0-9999, 421)
57
Appendix
NOTE: To assure the projector
can process a command, wait 3
seconds before entering the next
command.
A write request example: (AAA####) where
( starts the command AAA denotes the command #### denotes the value to be written
(leading zeros not necessary)
)ends the command
Some commands have ranges, while others are absolute. If a number greater than the maximum range is received, it is auto­matically set to the maximum number for that function. If a com­mand is received that is not understood, a “?” is returned. With absolute settings, “0” is off, 1-9999 is on. The one exception is the Power command, where 0 is off and 1 is on.
