Preparing the projector for operation
Getting ready for projection
1. Connect the power cord provided to the projector.
2. Connect the power cord to the wall power outlet.
3. Remove the lens cap.
Warning:
• Do not look directly into the lens when projector is
“ON”.
• The lens cap is for protecting the lens. If you leave
the power on with the cap on, the cap may be warped.
Please remove the lens cap when you turn the power
on.
• This projector is equipped with the power cords for
both U.S. and Europe. Use the appropriate power
cord for your country.
• A three-pin grounding type power plug is used with
the projector. Do not remove the grounding pin on
the power plug. If you are unable to insert the plug
into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace
your A/C outlet.
• The supplied power cord for U.S. is used for 120V
only. Never connect to any outlet or power supply
having a different voltage or frequency. If you
connect to the power supply having a different
voltage, please use the appropriate power cord.
• Use 100-240V AC 50/60Hz correct voltage otherwise it may lead to fire or electric shock.
• Do not place any objects on the power cord, and keep
the projector away from heat sources to avoid breaking the power cord. A broken power cord can cause
fire or electric shock.
• Do not revise or alter the power cord otherwise it
may cause fire or electric shock.
Contact your dealer if the cord is broken.
Caution:
• Plug in firmly and unplug by holding the plug, not
by pulling the cable out.
• Do not plug in or out with wet hands. It may cause
an electric shock.

How to reset the operation
time meter
Plug in the power cord, switch on the projector, and
reset lamp time by pressing the $, % and POWER
buttons simultaneously.
Caution:
• Do not spill liquid on the lamp or place it near flammable objects or where children can touch it. Otherwise, it could cause injury or fire.
• Be sure that the projector guide is firmly inserted
between the right and left lamp guides.
Important:
• The projector will not turn on if you do not secure
the lamp lid.
• You must reset the operation time meter after
you replace the lamp.
• Do not reset the operation time meter unless the
lamp has been replaced.
(b)
(a)
Interval of the lamp replacement
The interval of the lamp replacement about 1,500 hours of
consecutive use. Replacement span may differ according to
operating environment, and may be shorter than 1,500 hours.
Decreases in luminescence and/or color brightness will indicate that the light source lamp needs to be replaced. When
lamp operation time exceeds 1,000 hours*1, the indicator
will flash alternately between green and red (while the lamp
is in operation; when the lamp is not in operation, the indicator will appear red only). When the lamp has been used
for about 1,400 hours*1, the message “LAMP!!.” will appear
on the screen for one minute everytime the power is turned
on. When the lamp has been used for about 1,500 hours*1,*2,
the projector will automatically shut off for safety and the
power indicator light will be red. The projector cannot be
used until the lamp has been replaced and operation timer
has been reset.
Caution:
• The lamp is fragile. If broken, be careful not to cut yourself with glass fragments.
• The replacement span of the lamp depends on the environment. For replacement lamps, please contact your
dealer.
The projector automatically shuts off when the
lamp is used up in about 1,500 hours*
not be used until the lamp is replaced and the
internal timer is reset.
*1) When LAMP MODE of the INSTALLATION
menu is set to STANDARD.
*2) When LAMP MODE is set to low, the duration will
be extended maximum up to 2,000 hours.

Maintenance
Caution:
Be sure to turn off the projector and unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet before you perform any maintenance on the projector.
Cleaning the air-filter
Clean the air-filter frequently. If the filter or ventilation
grille become clogged with dirt or dust, the temperature
inside the projector may rise and shut off the power (the
TEMP indicator starts to blink red).
1. To remove the filter cover, press the
ridged area gently, push the cover in
the direction of the arrow and lift.
2. Remove the air-filter from the filter cover.
3. Wash the air-filter.
• Use water or a mild detergent diluted with
water to clean the filter.
Rinse the filter
thoroughly and let it dry
completely.
Cleaning the lens
Use a standard lens-cleaning brush or a piece of lens
tissue dampened with lens cleaning fluid. The lens surface is fragile. Use only recommended, nonabrasive lenscleaning materials. Do not touch the lens with your fingers.
ENGLISH
4. Attach the filter to the cover.
5. Reinstall the filter cover.
Important:
• If the filter is damaged or becomes extremely
dirty, contact your dealer for replacement.
Caution:
Be sure to use the projector with an air-filter. If not,
dust may get inside the projector, causing a fire or a
breakdown.

Important:
• Make sure that your computer and projector are turned off before connection.
• Turn on the projector after the computer is started up.
(If you do not follow this order, the Comport may not function.)
• Adapters may be necessary depending on the PC connected to this projector. Contact your dealer for details.

PROTOCOL RS-232C
BAUD RATE 9600 [bps]
DATA LENGTH 8 [bits]
PARITY BIT NONE
STOP BIT 1 [bit]
FLOW CONTROL NONE
This projector uses RXD, TXD and GND lines for RS-232C control.
For RS-232C cable,the reverse type cable should be used.
2) Control command diagram
The command is structured by the address code, function code, data code and end code. The length of the
command is different by each function.

3) Control sequence
(1) Send the command from a personal computer to the projector. (The commands must be sent at least
400ms apart.)
(2) The projector will send a return command 400ms* after it has received an end code. If the command is
not received correctly, the projector will not send the return command.
(3) The personal computer checks the command and confirms if the command which has been sent has been
executed or not.
(4) This projector sends various codes other than the return code. When having a control sequence by RS-
232C, reject other codes from personal computer side.
• * : The sending time of return command may delay depending on the condition (during changing the
input signal, etc.).

7) Reading command diagram
Monitor projector operation status. The power ON, OFF and input terminal settings can be monitored.

Function Data (Receive) Function Data (Receive)
POWER ON vP 1 76h 50h 31h
POWER OFF vP 0 76h 50h 30h

INPUT VIDEO vI v1 76h 49h 76h 31h
INPUT S-VIDEO vI v2 76h 49h 76h 32h
When a personal computer sends the command, data code will not be attached. On the other hand, the projector
which has received a command will attach the recent operating status and then send.
[Example ] Input was Video when the operating status of the input terminal was confirmed.

8) Menu setting commands
The menu setting commands execute the menu setting of this projector. If the personal computer doesn’t send
the commands without attaching the data code, the projector which has received the command replays the
setting data as data code.
