Important Safeguards

These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your projector and to prevent fire and shock. Please read them
carefully and heed all warnings.

Installation

1. For best results, use your projector in a darkened room.

2. Place the projector on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from dust and moisture.

3. Do not place your projector in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat radiating appliances.
Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal components.

4. To avoid premature lamp failure, do not tilt the front of the projector up or down by more than 7° from level.

5. Handle your projector carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage internal components.

6. Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector.

7. If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:

a. Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
b. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the

risk of bodily injury.

c. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accor-

dance with any local building codes.

d. Please consult your dealer for more information.

Important Information

Fire and Shock Precautions

1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside
your projector. Allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a wall.

2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector.
Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as

a wire or screwdriver into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immediately
and have the object removed by a qualified NEC service personnel.

3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.

4. Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.

5. Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the projector. The light being projected from the
lens is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the lens, can
cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to the eyes.

6. Do not cover the lens with the supplied lens cap or equivalent while the projector is on. Doing so can lead to
melting of the cap and possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light output.

7. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-240V AC 50/60 Hz. Ensure that your power
supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.

8. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending.
A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.

9. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time, disconnect the plug from the power outlet.

10. Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or fire.

11. Do not handle the power plug with wet hands.

12. When using a LAN cable:
For safety, do not connect to the connector for peripheral device wiring that might have excessive voltage.

CAUTION

• Do not try to touch the ventilation outlet on the front side as it can become heated while the projector is turned
on.

• Do not use the tilt-foot for purposes other than originally intended. Misuses such as gripping the tilt-foot or
hanging on the wall can cause damage to the projector.

• Before putting the projector in the soft case, be sure to retract the feet. Failure to do so may cause the damage
to the projector.

• Do not send the projector in the soft case by parcel delivery service or cargo shipment. The projector inside
the soft case could be damaged.

• Select [High] in Fan mode if you continue to use the projector for consecutive days. (From the menu, select
[Setup] → [Options] → [Fan Mode] → [High].)

• Do not unplug the power cable from the wall outlet under any one of the following circumstances.
Doing so can cause damage to the projector:

* While the projector's lamp lights.
* While the cooling fans are running. (The cooling fans continue to work for 90 seconds after the projector is

turned off).

* While the PC CARD Access Indicator lights. Doing so can damage your PC memory card.

Important Information

Lamp Replacement

•To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page 119.

• Be sure to replace the lamp when the message “The lamp has reached the end of its usable life. Please
replace the lamp.” appears. If you continue to use the lamp after the lamp has reached the end of its usable
life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the
pieces of glass may cause injury.

If this happens, contact your NEC dealer for lamp replacement.

• Allow a minimum of 90 seconds to elapse after turning off the projector. Then turn off the main power switch,
disconnect the power cable and allow 60 minutes to cool the projector before replacing the lamp.

Remote control

Remote sensor on projector cabinet

• The infrared signal operates by line-of-sight up to a distance of about 22 feet/7 m and within a 60-degree angle of
the remote sensor on the projector cabinet.

• The projector will not respond if there are objects between the remote control and the sensor, or if strong light falls
on the sensor.
Weak batteries will also prevent the remote control from properly operating the projector.

Remote Control Precautions

• Handle the remote control carefully.

• If the remote control gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.

•Avoid excessive heat and humidity.

• If you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.

• Do not place the batteries upside down.

• Do not use new and old batteries together, or use different types of batteries together.

• Dispose of used batteries according to your local regulations.

2. Installation and Connections

WARNING

* Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done

by a qualified technician. Contact your NEC dealer for
more information.

* Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.

• Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the
projector falls to the ground, you can be injured and
the projector severely damaged.

• Do not use the projector where temperatures vary
greatly. The projector must be used at temperatures
between 41˚F (5˚C) and 95˚F (35˚C).

• Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or
smoke. This will harm the screen image.

• Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your
projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents
on the side or the front of the projector.

Reflecting the Image

Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables
you to enjoy a much larger image. Contact your NEC
dealer if you need a mirror system. If you're using a mir­ror system and your image is inverted, use the MENU
and SELECT buttons on your projector cabinet or your
remote control to correct the orientation. See page 98.

2. Installation and Connections

 Making Connections

NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect between the projector and the notebook PC before turning on the
power to the notebook PC. In most cases signal cannot be output from RGB output unless the notebook PC is turned on after
connecting with the projector.
* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power

management software.

Enabling the computer’s external display

Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display.
Usually, the combination of the ‘Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on
or off. For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through
external display selections.

device uses “JavaScript” and “Cookies” and the browser should be set to accept these functions. The setting method
will vary depending on the version of browser. Please refer to the help files and the other information provided in your
software.)

NOTE:
* The display’s or button’s response can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending the settings of your

network. Should this happen, consult your network administrator.

* The projector may not respond if its buttons are repeatedly pressed in rapid intervals. Should this happen, wait a moment and

repeat. If you still can’t get any response, turn off and back on the projector.
Access is gained to the HTTP server functions by specifying
http:// <the projector’s IP address> /index.html
in the entry column of the URL.

CAUTION:

Do not use the HTTP Server functions and PC Control Utility 3.0 included on the supplied CD-ROM. Using both at

the same time may result in a connection failure or slow response.

Preparation Before Use

Make network connections and set up the projector and confirm that it is complete before engaging in browser opera­tions. (See “Setting LAN Mode” on page 99.)
Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and the
setting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have actually been set
will not be displayed depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser may not be
reflected in operation. It is recommended that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable.

Handling of the Address for Operation via a Browser

Regarding the actual address that is entered for the address or entered to the URL column when operation of the
projector is via a browser, the host name can be used as it is when the host name corresponding to the IP address of
the projector has been registered to the domain name server by a network administrator, or the host name corre­sponding to the IP address of the projector has been set in the “HOSTS” file of the computer being used.

Example 1: When the host name of the projector has been set to “pj.nec.co.jp”,

http://pj.nec.co.jp/index.html
is specified for the address or the entry column of the URL.

Example 2: When the IP address of the projector is “192.168.73.1”, access is gained to the

HTTP server functions by specifying
http://192.168.73.1/index.html
for the address or the entry column of the URL.

씉 Using the Projector to Operate a Computer Connected on a
Network (Desktop Control Utility 1.0)

When Desktop Control Utility 1.0 on the included User Supportware 2 CD-ROM is installed on the computer, that
computer can be operated using the projector over a network.
For example, say you have a PowerPoint file on a computer in your office that you want to use for a presentation at a
meeting. If the computer in the office is connected by LAN to the projector in the meeting room, the projector can be
operated to project the image of the desktop of the computer (Windows 2000 or XP) in the office and display the
PowerPoint file during the meeting. This eliminates the need for taking the computer from the office to the meeting
room.
