Important Operating Considerations for Safety
Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than
•
15 degrees o axis.
Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without any
•
obstructions to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the
projector on any soft covering that may block the vents.
Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2m) away from any heating
•
or cooling vents.
Use only Lightspeed Design and InFocus-approved ceiling mounts.
•
War ni ng: To prevent eye injury if the projector is ceiling mounted,
wear protective eyewear before opening lamp door. A warning sticker
is included with the user documentation. Place this sticker on the lamp
door if the projector is mounted on the ceiling.
Only genuine InFocus lamps are tested for use in this projector. InFocus
•
is not liable for the performance, safety or certication of any other lamps.
The use of other lamps violates the projector warranty and voids all
certication marks on this projector.
Use only the power cord provided. A surge-protected power strip is
•
recommended.
Refer to this guide for proper startup and shutdown procedures.
•
Hg – Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance with local
•
disposal laws. See www.lamprecycle.org
In the unlikely event of a lamp rupture, particles may exit through the
•
projector side vents. When the projector is turned on, keep people,
food, and drinks out of the "keep out" area under and around the
projector, as indicated by the "X" areas below.

Audio out, to provide sound for external speakers
•
USB, to provide mouse control (used with an optional remote control only)
•
A 5 volt DC output (see below)
•
It also has an RS-232 connector for serial control. The Command Line

Kensington security lock and PIN code feature will keep the projector
•
in the proper location and under authorized use.
5 volt DC output
The 3.5mm mini-jack triggers provide a constant 5 volt, 2 amp DC output while the projector is on. It is designed to provide power for an InFocus
LiteShow II wireless device, which allows wireless 2D projection. More information can be found on the InFocus website at www.infocus.com.

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 at surface at a right angle to the screen. The
•
projector must be at least 2.5 feet (46.2 cm) 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 33. We recommend
using the ceiling mounts described at www.depthq.com/accessories.html.
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 (as well as the focus to a small extent) determine the size
of the projected image. The native aspect ratio of the projector is 16:9.
The image exits the projector at a given angle. This vertical image oset is
•
115%. This means that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the
image will be 1.15’ above the center of the lens.
Calculating Distance to Screen
You can calculate the approximate minimum and maximum throw distance
for any horizontal or 16:9 diagonal screen size using the following equations:
Minimum Throw Distance = Horizontal Screen Size * 1.49
Maximum Throw Distance = Horizontal Screen Size * 1.83
Minimum Throw Distance = Diagonal Screen Size * 1.30
Maximum Throw Distance = Diagonal Screen Size * 1.59

Connecting a Computer Source
Required Computer Connections
Connect one end of the provided VGA computer cable to the Computer 1 or
Computer 2 connector on the projector and the other to the VESA connector
on your computer’s graphics card. If you are using a desktop computer
(currently your only option for viewing stereo 3D on the DepthQ projector),
you will need to disconnect the monitor cable from the computer’s video port
rst (you can connect this monitor cable to the Monitor Out connector on
the projector, see below).
Connect the black power cord to the Pow er connector on the side of the projector and to your electrical outlet. The Power light on the Status Indicator
Panel (page15) turns amber.
NOTE: Always use the power cord that shipped with the projector.
Optional Computer Connections
To get sound from the projector, connect an audio cable (optional cable, not
included) to your computer and to the Audio In Computer connector on
the projector. You may also need an adapter.
If you are using a desktop computer and want to see the image on your
computer screen as well as on the projection screen, connect the computer’s
monitor cable to the Monitor Out connector on the projector.
NOTE: The projector must be plugged in for this feature to work.

To advance slides in a 2D PowerPoint presentation using an optional remote
control, plug the USB cable into the USB mouse connector on your computer
and the USB connector on the projector.

Displaying an Image
For 3D, Connect your Infra-Red (IR) emitter (not included) to your computer.
•
A) If your graphics card has an onboard DIN3 connector (FX3700, FX4600,
etc.) connect your IR emitter directly to the onboard DIN3 connector.
B) If your graphics card does not have an onboard DIN3 connector (FX1500)
you will need to use a stereoscopic breakout cable (VGA to VGA + DIN3)
(see www.depthq.com/accessories.html).
C) Some IR emitters may connect to a USB port instead of using a DIN3.

The Power light on the Status Indicator Panel (page 15) blinks green and the
fans start to run. When the lamp comes on, the start up screen displays and
the Power light is steady green. It can take a minute for the image to achieve
full brightness.
? No start up screen ? Get help on page 16.
For 3D, supply power to your IR emitter and aim. (USB-connected emitters
•
may not require external power.)
Either aim your emitter at your screen (for front-projection), through the
screen (for rear-projection), or point it directly towards the viewer from
below or above the screen. Use whichever method works best.
Turn on your computer (for 3D or 2D) or video device (for 2D).
•
For 3D, ensure the computer desktop is set to either 1280x720, 1024x768 or
•
800x600 at a refresh rate of 120 Hz.

Folding glasses typically turn on when the ear-pieces are opened.
Others may have a pressure-sensitive switch or a physical button.
The image should appear on the projection screen. If it doesn’t, press
•
the Source button on the projector’s keypad or remote. You may have to
press it more than once.
Important: If there is still no video, restart your computer
(ensure it’s connected to the projector and the projector is turned on).
If using a laptop (for 2D display), make sure its external video port is active.
(Note - there is currently no 3D solution for using laptops with the DepthQ®)
Many laptops do not automatically turn on their external video port when a
projector is connected. Usually a key combination like FN + F8 or CRT/LCD
key turns the external display on and o. Locate a function key labeled
CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol. Press FN and the labeled
function key simultaneously. Refer to your laptop’s documentation to learn
your laptop’s key combination.
? No laptop image ? Try pressing the Auto Image button on the key-
pad. Get help on page 17.
For 3D, turn on your active eyewear liquid crystal (LC) shutter glasses.

See page 5 for a table listing a sampling of diagonal screen sizes and the
minimum and maximum distances required to ll that screen size.
For even greater detail visit our FAQ page at wwwdepthq.com/faq.html.
Adjust the zoom or focus.
•
The front ring is for focus; the rear ring is for zoom.
If the image is not square, rst make sure that the projector is as perpendicular
•
to the screen as possible.
If the left or right edge of the image is taller or shorter than the other, you can
turn the projector to the left or to the right a few degrees to square the image.
If the image is still wider or narrower on the top or bottom edge of the screen,
press the top Keystone button to reduce the upper part of the image, or press
the bottom Key sto ne button to reduce the lower part. See page 30.
Adjust the Contrast or Brightness in the Basic Picture menu. See page 30 for
•
help with these menu adjustments.
For Aspect Ratio, keep in mind that DVD players must be congured for
16:9 in order to view the highest quality image. For more information
regarding Aspect Ratio, see page 13.
