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 general guide­lines:
Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The
projector must be at least 4.9 feet (1.49m) from the projection screen.
Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and
within 6 feet (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase exten­sion cables). 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 38. We recommend using an 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 top illus­tration to the right shows three projected image sizes. For more infor­mation about image sizes at different distances, see “Projected Image Size” on page 43.
The image offset is 127.3% when the projector is in 16:9 mode. This
means that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 2.73’ above the center of the lens.
See “Connecting a video device” on page 15 for additional information
on 16:9 mode.

Projector and Device Connector Guide

The following illustration and table should help you find the connectors to use and obtain the best resolution possible from your input devices, such as com­puters, standard VCRs, DVD players (progressive and interlaced), HDTV sources, TV and satellite tuners, camcorders, video games (progressive and inter­laced), and laser disc players.

Computer connections

Computer connections involve attaching the VGA and USB ends of the provided computer cable to a computer and connecting the other end (M1 cable end) to the M1-DA input on the projector. The USB part of the computer cable allows you to advance slides in a PowerPoint™ presentation via an optional remote control. See page 10 for computer/projector setup information.

Video connections

The first step for connecting video is deciding what type of output connector you want to connect to the projector. If there is more than one output, select the one with the highest quality. The best quality ranking, with 1 being the highest and 3 being the lowest, is:
1 component video (RCA)
2 S-video
3 audio/visual composite video (RCA)
If your video device has a VGA connector, you can use the DVI connector on the back of the projector for very high quality.

Connecting a video device

You can connect video devices such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video game consoles, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. There is also an audio input via the red and white A/V connec­tors. You can connect the audio directly to the projector to get sound from the built-in speaker, or you can connect the audio to your stereo system via the Audio Out connector.
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.
Before connecting your projector, you should decide which aspect ratio you want to use. The projector’s Aspect Ratio setting is accessed through the projector’s Picture Menu. See page 33 for more information.
What is 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. This projector is not intended for use with 4:3 screens. 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 854x480 is cropped on the edges. Letterbox expands the image to fill the screen.
If you are projecting onto a screen, the size/shape of the screen may deter­mine which aspect ratio to use. If you are projecting onto a blank wall, you don’t have the screen size restriction. 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 either 4:3 or Native 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.

Shutting down the projector

Troubleshooting your setup

The projector automatically displays a black screen after no active source is detected for 30 minutes. This black screen helps preserve the life of the pro­jector. The image returns when an active source is detected or a remote or keypad button is pressed.
Screen Save
You can make the black screen appear after a preset number of minutes by turning on the Screen Save feature in the Settings>System menu. See page 38.
Power Sav e
The projector also has a Power Save feature that automatically turns the lamp off after no active sources are detected and no user interaction with the projector is performed for 20 minutes. By default, this feature is off. See page 38.
Turning off the projector
You can turn the projector off simply by toggling the power switch to the off position.
You can also press the remote’s Powe r button to place the projector in the Off state while it is running. When the Powe r button is pressed twice (once to start the power-down process and a second time to verify that you want to power the projector off), the lamp turns off and the LED blinks green for one (1) minute while the fans continue to run to cool the lamp. While the LED is blinking green, the projector does not accept any keypad and remote control input.
When the lamp has cooled, the LED lights solid green and the fans slow down to minimal speed. To turn off the projector, toggle the power switch to the off position.
If your image appears correctly on the screen, skip to the next section. If it does not, troubleshoot the setup.
The LED on top of the projector indicates the state of the projector and can help you troubleshoot.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Lens

1 Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner to a soft, dry cloth.
• Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner, and don’t apply the cleaner directly to the lens. Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals might scratch the lens.
2 Lightly wipe the cleaning cloth over the lens in a circular motion. If you
don’t intend to use the projector immediately, replace the lens cap.

Replacing the Projection Lamp

The lamp hours used timer in the About menu counts the number of hours the lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the lamp life expires, the message “Change lamp” appears on the screen at startup. If the maximum lamp time is exceeded, the lamp will not light. In this case, after replacing the lamp you must reset the lamp hours by simultaneously pressing both
Vol um e buttons on the keypad and holding them for 10 seconds.
NOTE: You can order new lamp housings from your dealer. See the Packing
list for information. Use only a replacement lamp with the same type and rating as the original lamp.
1 Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
2 Wait 30 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.

5 Detach the lamp connector from the projector by depressing the locking
tab on the connector and lightly pulling it free. WARNING:
To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 30 minutes before you replace the lamp.
Do not drop the lamp housing or touch the glass bulb! The glass may shatter and cause injury.
Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely event that the bulb ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated. The lamp housing is designed to contain these frag­ments, but use caution when removing the lamp housing. Before replacing the lamp, clean the lamp compartment and dispose of cleaning materials. Wash hands after lamp replacement. This prod­uct has a lamp which contains a very small amount of mercury. Dis­pose of it as required by local, state or federal ordinances and regulations. For more information see www.eiae.org.

Cleaning the Lamp Housing Screens

In dirty or dusty environments, the two dust filter screens in the lamp hous­ing can become clogged, causing high temperatures and premature lamp failure. Routine maintenance to remove dust from the screens lowers the lamp operating temperature and prolongs lamp life. To maximize lamp life you should clean the screen at least every 250 hours depending upon envi­ronmental conditions. The dirtier or dustier the environment, the more often you should clean the screens.
1 Remove the lamp housing.
2 Examine the dust filter screens on the lamp housing. If necessary, use a
vacuum cleaner set on low power to clean the screens. Be careful not to disturb any internal components when cleaning the screens.
3 Replace the lamp housing and lamp door.

Using the security lock

The projector has a security lock for use with a PC Guardian Cable Lock System. Refer to the information that came with the lock for instructions on how to use it.

Table 3:
Red LED Behavior Explanation
One (1) blink The lamp won't strike after five (5)
attempts. Check the lamp and lamp door installations for loose connections.
Two (2) blinks The lamp counter hours have exceeded
lamp life hours. Replace the lamp and reset the lamp hours counter.
Three (3) blinks The projector has shut down. Check to
see if the lamp door is open. If the lamp door is closed, toggle off the projector and wait one minute, then toggle the pro­jector on again. If the lamp does not strike after one minute, replace the lamp. Con­tact Technical Support (see page 27) for repair if replacing the lamp does not solve the problem.
Four (4) blinks The fan has failed. Contact Technical Sup-
port (see page 27) for repair or replacing the fan.
Five (5) blinks The projector is overheating. Check for a
blocked air vent (page 26) or clogged lamp housing screen (page 42). Contact Technical Support for repair if clearing the vents/screens does not solve the problem.
