The KODAK DP900 /DP1100 Digital Projectors are lightweight
multimedia projectors specifically designed for the mobile
presenter. They generate crisp, clear images using Digital Light
Processing™ (DLP) technology. The projectors are easy to
connect, easy to use, and easy to maintain. The soft carry case
makes it easy to transport the 7.4 pound projectors. The DP900
has SVGA 800x600 graphics, the DP1100 has XGA 1024x768
graphics. The user interfaces of the two products are identical;
information in this User’s Guide applies to both products.
Included with the DP900 / 1100 projectors is Kodak’s exclusive
Image Manager feature. With this feature you can select the
image display setting best suited for your specific presentation
material and projection environment.
Image Resolution
DP900
The SVGA resolution of the DP900’s projected image is
800x600. Screen resoluti ons betwee n 800x 600 and 1024 x768 are
compressed to 800x600. The DP900 cannot compress screen
resolutions above 102 4x768. If your c omputer’ s screen reso lution
is higher than 1024x768, reset it to a lower resolution before you
connect the projector.
Introduction
Note: The DP900 automatically expands 640x480 images to
800x600. You can display these images at 640x480 by
turning off the Auto Resize feature. See “Auto Resize” on
page 35.
3/99 3
Reference Manual KODAK DP900 / DP1100
DP1100
The XGA resolution of the DP1100’s projected image is
1024x768. The DP1100 cannot compress screen resolutions
above 1024x768. If your computer’s screen resolution is higher
than 1024x768, reset it to a lower resolution before you connect
the projector.
Note: The DP1100 automatically expands 640x480 and 800x600
images to 1024x768. You can display these images at their
original resolutions by turning off the Auto Resize feature.
See “Auto Resize” on page 35.
Compatibility
The projector is compati ble with a wide vari ety of c omputers and
video devices, including:
• IBM-compatible computers, including laptops, up to
1024x768 resolution at 75 Hz
• Apple Macintosh and PowerBook computers up to
1024x768 resolution at 75 Hz.
• Most standard VCRs, DVD players, camcorders and
laser disc players.

Usage Guidelines
• 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. 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 reac h room tempe ratur e befor e use.
• This proje ctor 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.

within 10 feet (3 m) of your power source and within 8 feet
(2.4 m) of your computer.
2. Make sure the projector and your computer are turned off.
3. Position the projector the desired distance from the screen
and adjust the focus ring.
• The distance from the lens of the projector to the screen
and the zoom setting determine the size of the projected
image. Figure 2 and Figur e 3 show th ree pro je cted ima ge
sizes. For informatio n about im age sizes at minimum and
maximum zoom settings, see “Projected Image Size” on
page 73.

ZKHQHYHU\RXFRQQHFWRUGLVFRQQHFWFDEOHV
The cable hub connector simplifies the connection process by
providing a central hub for all the connections between the
projector and your comput er. The connectors on the cable hub are
labeled with icons. The cable hub also has an LED that lights
solid green when the projector is on and the cable hub is
functioning properly. A slowly blinking LED indicates that the
cable hub is waiting to initialize with the projector; a rapidly
blinking LED indicates a problem with the cable hub.
Connect the end of the cable hub to the connector on
the projector’s connector panel. (Figure 4)

Connecting a Video Player
1. If your video player us es a round, one-prong composite v ideo
connector, you’ll need only the A/V cable that shipped with
the projector.
• If your video player uses a round, four-prong S-video
connector , you ’ll n eed an S- video c able i n addit ion t o the
A/V cable. The S-video cable is sold separately.
2. Plug the A/V cable’s yellow connector into the “video-out”
port on your video player (Figure 9). This port may be
labeled “To Monitor.”
• If you’re using an S-video cable, connect it to the
“s-video out” connector on the video player (Figure 9).
3. Plug the other yellow connec tor into t he composit e connecto r
on the back of the projector.
• If you’re using S-video, plug the other end of the cable
into the “s-video” connector on the projector (Figure 9).

on the A/V cable remain unused (Figure 10).
5. Plug the A/V cable’s other white and red connectors to the
left and right “audio in” ports on the projector.
The projector is compatible with these major broadcast video
standards: NTSC, NTSC 4.43, PAL, PAL-M, PAL-N, and
SECAM. It automatically adjusts to optimize its performance for
the incoming video. The input signals for SECAM, PAL-M, and
PAL-N video are similar to other video signals and cannot be
automatic ally detected, therefore they must b e chosen manually.
See “Video Standard” on page 37 for details.
