The projector is compatible with a wide variety of computers and video devices, including:
IBM-compatible computers, including laptops, up to 1280x1024 resolution.
Apple Macintosh and PowerBook computers up to 1280x1024 resolution.
NOTE: The LP770 automatically expands 640x480 and 800x600 images to 1024x768. You can dis­play these images at their native resolutions by pressing the Expand button on the remote. See page 18 for details.

Usage Guidel ines
Do not look directly into the projection lens when the lamp is turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes.
Do not block the grills on the projector. Restricting the air flow can cause it to overheat and turn off. If this happens, you must wait a minute before attempting to turn it back on.
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.
Transport the projector in a vendor-approved hard or soft case. Part numbers for these cases are listed on page 41.

The projector must be within 10 feet (3 m) of your power source and within 6 feet (1.8 m) of your computer.
If you want to project from behind a translucent screen, set up the projector behind your screen. See “Image Reverse” on page 24 to reverse the image.
Position the projector the desired distance from the screen.

Setting up the Projector
Connecting a Video Player
The LP770 has 3 different connections for video players: S-video, composite video, and BNC (the S-video and BNC connections require cables not included with the LP770).
If your video player uses a round, one-prong composite video
1
connector, plug the composite video cable’s yellow connector into the “video-out” connector on your video player. This con­nector may be labeled “To Monitor.” If you’re using an S­video cable, connect it to the “S-video out” connector on the video player. If you’re using a BNC cable, connect it to the “BNC-video out” connector on the video player (Figure 9).
CAUTION: Your video player
may also have a “Video Out”
connector for a coaxial cable
connection. DO NOT use this to
connect to the projector.
Plug the other yellow connector into the

Video 2 In
composite video connector on the projector. If you’re using S-video, plug the other end of the cable into the
Video 1 or 2 In
“S-video” connector on the projector. If you’re using BNC, plug the other end of the cable into the
Video 1 In
“BNC” connector on the
projector.

Connecting DVD players with component video output or HDTV decoders
If your DVD player has (Y,Cb,Cr) outputs, use the Computer 1 or Computer 2 In connectors. Also select (Y,Cb,Cr) for Computer Input in the Signal menu (see “Computer Input” on page 28).
If your HDTV decoder has (Y,Pb,Pr) outputs, use the Computer 1 or Computer 2 In connectors. Also select (Y,Pb,Pr) for Computer Input in the Signal menu. If your HDTV decoder has R, G, B output, select RGB for Com­puter Input in the Signal menu.

USING THE PROJECTOR
This section describes how to use and make adjustments to the projector. It also provides a reference to the keypad and remote 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 11). If the image doesn’t display completely, adjust the height and
2
tilt of the projector (page 15), zoom the image (page 15), or center the image by adjusting its horizontal or vertical posi­tion (page 27).
If the image is out of focus, use the

button on the
remote or keypad to focus it (page 15). If the computer image appears to shimmer or if it has blurry

image still doesn’t look right, adjust the fine sync (page 27) and/or the tracking (page 28) manually.
If the colors don’t look right, adjust the brightness (page 21)
5
and tint (page 22).
Using the Remote Control
Point the remote control at the projection screen or at the front or the rear of the projector. The range for optimum operation is about 25 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 25 feet. For best results, point the remote directly at the front or the rear of the projector.
The projector ships with a full-feature remote (see page 16 for a description of the buttons) which includes a laser pointer. The remote has a disk mouse and two mouse buttons, one on the top of the remote and one on the bottom (Figure 10).
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 — use the remote control cable to connect the remote directly to the projector.

MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING
This section describes how to:
clean the lens
clean the air filters
replace the projection lamp
replace the batteries in the remote

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 in a circular
2
motion. If you don’t intend to use the projector immediately, replace
3
the lens cap.
Cleaning the Air Filters
The projector has two air filters, located on the bottom of the pro­jector, that prevent dust and particles in the air from entering the projector . The larg er filter is flexible mesh, the smaller one is rigid metal mesh.
If the filters becomes clogged, the projector does not cool prop­erly and may malfunction. To prevent this, clean the filters after every 100 hours of use. Note that the filters are cleaned differ­ently.
Turn off the power and unplug the power cord.

Replacing the Projection Lamp
The average life of the lamp is 2,000 hours. When the lamp has been in use for 1,500 hours, the lamp LED alternately blinks green and red. After 1,900 hours, the word “LAMP!” appears on the screen for one minute. After 2,000 hours, the lamp shuts off automatically. The projector cannot be used until you replace the lamp and reset the lamp timer. You can order new lamp modules from your InFocus dealer. See “Accessories” on page 40 for infor­mation.
Follow these steps to replace the projection lamp:
Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
1
Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.

WARNING: To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 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 door open or removed. This disrupts the air flow and causes the projector to overheat.

Follow these steps to replace the batteries:
Turn the remote face down in your hand.
1
Slide the battery cover off the end of the remote.

Make sure the lamp door and filter covers are correctly
installed.
Make sure you have allowed the projector to cool down before
turning it off. If the lamp has not cooled sufficiently, you can not turn the projector back on immediately. Wait 10 minutes for the projector to cool, then turn it on.
Make sure that the cables do not have any bent pins.
Make sure the image and audio have not been muted.

Make sure your laptop’s external video port is turned on. See
the “Portable and Laptop Activation Chart” on page 42 or your computer’s manual for details.
Make sure your computer’s video board is installed and con-

Problem: Lamp seems to be getting dimmer
The lamp begins to lose brightness when it has been in use for
a long time. Replace the lamp as described in “Replacing the Projection Lamp” on page 31.

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 info rma­tion 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:
Open the Monitors control panel; click on Monitor 2.
1
Set the number of colors you want.
2
Open the Control Strip, then click on the monitor icon.
3
Select “Turn Video Mirroring On.”
4
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:
Turn off video mirroring.
1
Open the Monitors control panel.
2
Move the white menu bar to Monitor 2 to set the projector as
3
the primary monitor. Restart the PowerBook.
