Important Operating Considerations
• Place the projector in a horizontal position, with no more than 15
degrees forward or backwards tilt. See “Positioning the projector” on
page 6.
• Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without any obstructions
to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or
other soft covering that may block the vents.
• Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2 m) away from any heating or cooling
vents.
• Use only InFocus-approved ceiling mounts.
• Use only the power cord provided.
• Refer to this manual for proper startup and shutdown procedures.
• In the unlikely event of the lamp rupturing, discard any edible items
placed in the surrounding area and thoroughly clean the area along all
sides of the projector. Wash hands after cleaning the area and handling
the ruptured lamp. 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.
Follow these instructions to help ensure image quality and lamp life over
the life of the projector. Failure to follow these instructions may affect the
warranty. For complete details of the warranty, see the warranty section at
the end of this Installer's Guide.

Connector Panel
The projector provides eight discreet video connectors:
• one red-green-blue RCA (SD/ED/HD component)
• one red-green-blue BNC (SD/ED/HD component)
•two S-video
•one composite RCA
• one M1-DA (HD, RGBHV, HD component, DVI, and computer)
• one VESA (HD, RGBHV, HD component, and computer)
• one D5 (SD/ED/HD component, RGB SCART)
It also has a mini-jack input for a Niles or Xantech-compatible IR repeater
and an RS-232 connector for serial control. The Command Line Interface
(CLI) specifications and commands are listed in the Appendix starting on
page 27.
Two 3.5mm mini-jack triggers provide 12 volt current. Screen trigger provides a constant output while the projector is on. For example, if you connect your projection screen to the screen trigger, when you turn on the
projector the screen will move down; when you turn the projector off, the
screen will return to the storage position. Screen mask provides a 4:3 aspect
trigger. When you select 4:3 in the Aspect Ratio menu or from the Resize
button on the remote, a 12v signal will be sent after a five second delay. Use
this trigger for screens with 4:3 aspect curtains. When you switch back to
16:9 format, the curtains open to reveal the entire screen.

Positioning the projector
There are a number of factors to consider when determining where to set up
the projector, including 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.
1 Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen.
The projector must be within 10 feet (3 m) of your power source. To
ensure adequate cable access, place the projector at least 6 inches
(0.15m) from a wall or other objects. Place the projector at least 5.6 feet
(1.7 m) from the projection screen.
If you install 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 page 16. InFocus recommends use of an
authorized InFocus ceiling mount. The Ceiling Mount Kit is sold separately.
If you do not install the projector on the ceiling, or you install it on the
ceiling with a less than 90% offset, please remove and discard the metal
light shield that is attached to the lens collar by pulling it off.
2 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.
Go to www.infocushome.com/support for a complete image size calcula-
tor.

Video connections
Table 1: Video connections
You can connect VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video
games, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. (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.) Audio
must be provided by your own speakers, as the projector has no separate
audio controls. If there is more than one output, select the highest quality
one. DVI, Component video and RGB (M1, HD15) have the best quality, followed by S-video, and then composite video
.

and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9. Choose the option that best fits your
input source in the menus, or press the Resize button on the remote to
cycle through the options. See page 12.
• Adjust the Keystone, Contrast, Brightness, Color, or Tint in the Picture
menu. See page 12.
• Select a different Color Temperature or use the Color Control to adjust
the gain and offset of the red, green, and blue color. See page 15.
• Select a specific Color Space or Gamma. See page 13 and page 15.
• Select a different Video Standard. Auto tries to determine the standard
of the incoming video. Select a different standard if necessary. See
page 15.
• Turn Overscan on to remove noise around the video image. See
page 13.
• Fine tune component inputs using the TrueLife™ adjustments. See
page 14.
• Tune colors to your specifications using Blue Only and ADC Calibration. See page 18.
• Make sure your DVD player is set for a 16:9 television. See your DVD
player’s user’s guide for instructions.
You can customize the projector for your specific setup and needs. See
page 16 to page 18 for details on these features.

To adjust the following five settings, highlight the setting, press Select, use
the up and down arrows to adjust the values, then press select to confirm
the changes. All menu defaults are listed in a table starting on page 28.
Keyston e: adjusts the image vertically to make a squarer image.
Contrast: controls the degree of difference between the lightest and darkest
parts of the picture and changes the amount of black and white in the
image.
Brightness: changes the intensity of the image.
Color: (video sources only) adjusts a video image from black and white to
fully saturated color.
Tint: (NTSC video sources only) adjusts the red-green color balance in the
image.
Aspect Ratio: Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height.
TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are
1.78:1, or 16:9. You can choose Native, 4:3, 16:9, Letterbox, or Natural Wide.
The default is 16:9. The goal is to show the most detail on the screen while
preserving the ratio of width to height. The native resolution of the projector is 1280x720. Use Native, 4:3 or Natural Wide for 4:3 input sources; use
Native, 16:9 or Letterbox for 16:9 input. Pressing the Resize button on the
remote cycles through these options.
16:9 source and screen, the image fills the screen. If your source is letterboxed, the image is expanded to fill the screen. Natural Wide: this mode
stretches a 4:3 image to fill the entire 16:9 screen. The center two-thirds of
the image is unchanged; the edges of the image are stretched. The mode is
only available when TrueLife is active (see page 14).
Picture menu
Native: this mode bypasses the internal scaler, displaying the image with no
resizing. Since the native resolution is 1280x720 and 4x3 video images are
approximately 640x480, 4x3 images will always be smaller than the display
and will be centered in the display. Computer images 1024x768 or smaller
will also be centered in the display. If a 16x9 video source or a 1280x1024 or
larger computer source is viewed, it will display up to 1280 pixels and 720
lines from the center of the input. 16:9: the default is 16:9, which preserves
the 16:9 aspect ratio and is designed to be used with content that is
Enhanced for Widescreen TVs. 4:3: resizes the image from its original version to fit a standard 4:3 aspect ratio screen. If you have a 4:3 source on a
16:9 screen, the image is placed in a 16:9 space, so black bars appear at the
sides of the image. Letterbox: preserves the 16:9 aspect ratio. If you have a

Presets: This allows you to customize settings and save the settings to be
restored later. To restore the factory default settings, choose Factory Reset in
the Settings>Service menu.
To set a preset for the current source, adjust the image, select Save Settings
in the Presets menu, then choose Save User 1, 2, or 3. You can recall these
settings in the future by selecting the appropriate user presets.
Gamma: Gamma tables contain preset intensity configurations optimized
for the input source. You can select a gamma table that has been specifically
tuned for either film, CRT (Cathode Ray Tube), video, Bright Room, or PC
input. Bright Room 2 raises the brightness of low level content more than
Bright Room 1, thus it is designed for lighting conditions that have high
ambient light. (Film input is material originally captured on a film camera,
like a movie; video input is material originally captured on a video camera,
like a TV show or sporting event.)
NOTE: Your viewing preferences may vary. Cycle through the gamma
options and pick the one you like the best.
Overscan: (video sources only) removes noise around the video image.

Tr u e L i fe : This option refers to Faroudja’s TrueLife processing of the image.
All standard definition interlaced video signals (composite, S-video and
component) are routed through this processor. Extended and High Definition progressive component sources are not routed though this processor by
default. You can turn TrueLife on to route these signals through the processor and then adjust the following 3 options:
Chroma Detail: This adjusts the color sharpness.
Luma Detail: This adjusts the overall sharpness (edge enhancement) of
the Luma signal.
Chroma Delay: aligns the Luma and Chroma signals.
CCS: (Cross Color Suppression) processes the signal to remove any color
information from the luma portion of the signal. It is On for all composite
signals, Off for all component signals, and can be turned on or off for all Svideo signals.
Film Mode: controls deinterlacing. If 2:2/3:2 Enable is selected, the deinterlacer attempts to perform a 3:2 pulldown, assuming the source was originally created on 24fps film. If the original source is 30fps film, you should
select NTSC 2:2 Pulldown. The NTSC 48Hz option eliminates 2:3 pulldown
induced jitter normally seen when deinterlacing 24Hz film content (most
DVD movies) and playing it back at 60Hz. This is accomplished by playing
the each frame of the original 24Hz film twice, resulting in 48Hz playback
frame rate.
Noise Reduction: adjusts signal noise reduction. Choose Off to have no
noise reduction, choose Auto to have the software determine the amount of
noise reduction, or choose Manual and adjust the Level. Skintone Bypass
prevents the noise reduction from being performed on skin tones, thus preventing them from appearing overly softened.

Color Space: This option applies to computer and HDTV sources (it won’t
appear in the menu for video sources). It allows you to select a color space
that has been specifically tuned for the video input. When Auto is selected,
the projector automatically determines the standard. To choose a different
setting, turn off Auto, then choose RGB for computer sources, choose
REC709 for component 1080i or 720p sources, or choose REC601 for component 480p or 576p sources.
Color Temperature: changes the relative warmth of the colors. Select a
listed value.
Color Control: allows you to individually adjust the gain (intensity of the
color) and the offset (the amount of black in the color) of the red, green, and
blue colors.
Color Gamut: is the range of colors that are displayable by a device. The
color gamuts listed restrict the output of our display to those that are
defined by the industry standards mentioned, with the exception of “maximum” which display all of the colors that our display is capable of. Choose
among SMPTE C, REC 709, EBU, and Maximum.

Video Standard: When it is set to Auto, the projector attempts to pick the
video standard automatically based on the input signal it receives. (The
video standard options may vary depending on your region of the world.) If
the projector is unable to detect the correct standard, the colors may not
look right or the image may appear “torn.” If this happens, manually select
a video standard by selecting NTSC, PAL, or SECAM from the Video Standard menu.

Cleaning the lamp filter screen
In dirty or dusty environments, the dust filter screen on the lamp module
can become clogged, causing high temperatures inside the lamp module.
These high temperatures can impact lamp performance and operating life.
Routine maintenance to remove dust and dirt from the screen lowers the
lamp operating temperature and prolongs lamp life. To maximize lamp life
you will need to clean the screen every 250 hours. Lamp screen maintenance
may need to occur more often than 250 hours depending on your installation/use environment.
1 Remove the lamp module. Refer to page 19 for instructions.
2 Examine the dust filter screen on the side of the lamp module. If neces-
sary, use compressed or canned air to clean the screen. Then use a cotton
swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol to lightly wipe the screen. After
you've wiped the screen, blow away any remaining contaminants.
3 Replace the lamp module and lamp door.

RS-232 terminal specifications
Communication configuration
To control the projector from an LCD control panel, connect an RS-232 cable
to the serial control connector on the projector and set your computer’s
serial port settings to match this communication configuration:
A read command returns the range and the current setting, for example
Function Command Response
Brightness (BRT?) (0-22, 10)
Lamp hours (LMP?) (0-9999, 421)
:
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 (indicated by a
“?”) or a write request (indicated 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 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
