WARNING:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio / TV technician for help.

DOC Compliance Notice

Warnings and Safety Precaution

The NEC IPS-4000/IPS-4000Q is designed and manufactured to provide long, trouble-free service. No maintenance other than cleaning is required. Use a soft cloth and if necessary, mild detergent. Do not use commercial spray cleaners which may damage the surface. In case of damage, arrange for repairs at an authorized NEC dealer.

For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit, read carefully and observe the following instructions.

To avoid shock and fire hazards:

1. Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid internal heat build-up. If you enclose the

unit in a cabinet or rack, be sure there is adequate space at the bottom of the unit to allow heated air to rise and escape.

2. Do not use the power cord plug with extension cords or outlets unless the prongs can be completely inserted.

3. Do not expose unit to rain or moisture.

4. Avoid damage to the power cord, and do not attempt to modify the power cord.

5. Unplug unit during electrical storms or if unit will not be used over a long period.

6. Do not open the cabinet which has potentially dangerous high voltage components inside.

If the unit is damaged in this way the warranty will be void. Moreover, there is a serious risk of electric shock.

7. Do not attempt to service, modify, or repair the unit. NEC is not liable for any bodily harm or damage caused if unqualified persons attempt service or open the cabinet. Refer all service to an authorized NEC dealer.

To avoid damage and prolong operating life:

1. Use only with 100-240V 50/60Hz AC power supply. Continued operation at line voltages

other than those specified herein will shorten the life of the unit, and might even cause a fire hazard.

2. Handle the unit carefully when moving and do not drop.

3. Locate set away from heat, excessive dust, and direct sunlight.

4. Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small metal objects. In case of accident, unplug

the unit and have it serviced by an authorized NEC dealer.

5. Unplug unit before cleaning. Use only a soft cloth and mild detergent. Commercial household sprays and cleaners may damage the cabinet. To turn off main power, be sure to remove the plug from power outlet. The power outlet socket should be easily accessible.

Three types of power cords are supplied with the unit: Three-pin type for Japan, U.S.A and Canada. Two-pin type for Germany.

For Japan

FEATURES

This image processor digitally processes the input video signal to reduce dot interference and cross-color problems while improving the quality of color reproduction. The unit doubles, quadruples the horizontal scanning frequency, doubles the fields, and converts to PC formats (of 800 x 600 and 1024 x 768). (Model IPS-4000 doubles the horizontal scanning frequency and doubles the fields only.) This Image processor reduces line flicker, increases the vertical resolution, and permits a video output matched to the display region of matrix type display devices.

Functionally adaptive 3-dimensional Y/C separation circuit greatly reduces Y

•

signal and C signal crosstalk, dot interference and cross colors.

Functionally adaptive 3-dimensional scanning line interpolation circuitwhich

•

also supports PAL and SECAM, provides a reduction of line flicker and a smooth moving picture image quality for changing still and moving pictures by means of the original interpolation process motion detection.

Digital video noise reduction circuit greatly improves the signal-to-noise ratio

•

of the signal and outputs an image (permitting 3-stage switching) with little noise.

Equipped with a still picture function for the images of document cameras.

•

Equipped with a demonstration split function for switching between the

•

interlace mode and the artficial interlace mode.

One-line type TBC(Time base corrector) function increases the margin corre-

•

sponding to the VCR nonstandard signal input and reduces the horizontal jitter at the time of VCR playback.

The higher bandwidth of the chroma signal which is due to the color transient

•

correction circuit serves to raise the resolution of the color signal.

REMOTE CONTROL NOTES

Installing the Remote Control Batteries

When it comes time to replace the batteries, two "AAA" type will be required.

1. Press and open the cover.

2. Align the batteries according to the (+) and (-) indications inside the case.

3. Replace the cover.

Remote Control Notes

Use the remote control within a distance of about 7 m and at an angle of 30° above, below,

•

to the left and to the right of the remote control sensor located at the front of the main unit. The remote control system may not function when direct sunlight or strong illumination strikes

•

the remote control sensor of the main unit, or when there is an obstacle in the path. When remote control buttons are pressed and held, main unit operations may not be possible.

•

Do not subject to strong shock.

•

Do not allow water or other liquid to splash on the remote control. If the remote control gets

•

wet, wipe it dry immediately. Avoid exposure to heat and steam.

•

Remove the batteries from the remote control when the remote control is not going to be used

•

for a long period.

MAIN UNIT OPERATION

Connect input equipment as well as output equipment such as projectors prior to operation. In this section, the following will be described: switching on and off the power, on-screen displays used in adjustments and settings and their method of use, selection of input equipment, selection of monitor output and scanning types, and the muting of picture and sound.

Switching On and Off the Power

Setting the POWER switch located on the rear panel of the main unit to "ON" puts the unit into the standby mode. The power can then be switched on and off with the front panel POWER button or the remote control POWER button.

POWER

The POWER indicator will light green when the power is switched "ON". The POWER indicator will light red when the power is switched "OFF" and the unit will enter the standby mode. To switch off the main power, set the POWER switch located on the rear panel of the main unit to "OFF".

Notice

When the Auto Power function (described on Page 27) has been set, the unit can be started up simply by switching on the main power.

Using the On-screen Display and the MENU Button

Switching the On-screen Display On and Off

This selection determines whether or not the displays for adjustment of the unit and the settings are output from the OUTPUT connectors. <Remote Control Only>

DISPLAY

Each press of the DISPLAY button advances the setting of the on-screen output between ON and OFF. The DISPLAY indicator of the main unit will be lit to indicate that this function is ON. When an operation is performed, notification is provided on the on-screen display. Press the ENTER button to get rid of the display. (The displayed information will automatically disappear when there has not been a button operation for about 5 seconds.)

The on-screen display is not output from the MONITOR OUTPUT connector.
