Important Safeguards

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

CAUTION

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:

Installation

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

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

3. Do not place your projector in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat radiating appliances.

4. Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal components.

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

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

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 accordance with any local building codes.

d. Please consult your dealer for more information.

Power Supply

1. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-120 or 200-240 V 50/60 Hz A C. Ensure that y our power supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.

2. Handle the pow er cable carefully and a void e xcessive bending. A damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.

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

* While the Hour Glass icon appears. * While the message "Please wait a little." appears. This mes-

sage will be displayed after the projector is turned off.

* Immediately after the power cable is plugged into the wall

outlet (the POWER indicator has not changed to a steady amber glow).

* Immediately after the cooling fan stops working (The cooling

fan continues to work for 90 seconds after the projector is turned off with the POWER button).

* While the POWER and the ST ATUS indicators are alternately

flashing.

E–3

Cleaning

1. Unplug the projector before cleaning.

2. Clean the cabinet periodically with a damp cloth. If heavily soiled, use a mild detergent. Never use strong detergents or solvents such as alcohol or thinner.

3. Use a blower or lens paper to clean the lens, and be careful not to scratch or mar the lens.

Lamp Replacement

• T o replace the lamp , f ollow all instructions provided on page E-52.

• Be sure to replace the lamp when the message "Lamp Run- ning Time is Over 1000 Hours!!" 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 disconnect the power cable and allo w 60 minutes to cool the projector before replacing the lamp.

Fire and Shock Precautions

1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside y our projector. Allow at least 3 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 remov ed by a qualified NEC service personnel.

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

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

• 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.

• 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.

Introduction to the MultiSync LT150/LT85 Projector

This section introduces you to your new MultiSync LT150 (XGA)/ LT85 (SVGA) Projector and describes the features and controls.

Congratulations on Your Purchase of The MultiSync L T150/LT85 Projector

The MultiSync LT150/LT85 is one of the very best projectors available today. The MultiSync LT150/LT85 enables you to project precise images up to 200 inches across (measured diagonally) from your PC or Macintosh computer (desktop or notebook), VCR, D VD player, document camera, a laser disc player or PC Card Viewer. You can use the projector on a tabletop or cart, you can use the projector to project images from behind the screen, and the projector can be permanently mounted on a ceiling*1. The remote control can be used wirelessly.

Features you’ll enjoy:

• Simple set up and operation.

• Hot air blown from the vents does not bother the audience during your presentation since the vents are located on the side.

• A high-performance DC130 watt lamp.

• The supplied card wireless remote control that operates the projector from the front and the rear.

• The image can be projected between 36 and 200 inches (measured diagonally).

• Keystone correction allows you to correct trapezoidal distortion so that the image is square.

• Y ou can choose between video modes depending on your source: "normal" for a typical picture, "natural" for true color reproduction.

• The built-in PC Card Viewer allows you to start your presentation even when a PC is not available at the site.

• The "Capture" enables you to capture the current projected image.

• An image can be projected from in front or behind a screen, and the projector can even be installed on the ceiling.

• NEC Technologies’ exclusive Advanced AccuBlend intelligent pixel blending technology - an extremely accurate image compression technology - offers a crisp image with UXGA (1600⳯

1200) resolution*3.

• Supports most IBM VGA, SV GA, XGA*2 , SXGA/UXGA(with Advanced AccuBlend)*3, Macintosh, component signal (YCbCr / YPbPr) or any other RGB signals within a horizontal frequency range of 15 to 100 kHz and a vertical frequency range of 50 to 117 Hz. This includes NTSC, PAL, PAL60, SECAM and NTSC4.43 standard video signals.

• The supplied card remote control can be used without a cable, and you can even use the optional presentation remote control and mouse adapter to operate your PC or Macintosh mouse wirelessly from across the room with the built-in remote mouse receiver.

• You can control the projector with a PC using the PC Control port*4.

• USB terminal allows USB mouse operation *5.

• The contemporary cabinet design is light, compact, easy to carry, and complements any office, boardroom or auditorium.

• Eight pointers are available for your presentation.

*1 Do not attempt to mount the projector on a ceiling yourself.

The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes. Please consult your dealer for more information.

*2 An XGA image (1024⳯768) is converted into an 800⳯600 crisp

image with NEC technology’s Advanced AccuBlend on LT85.

*3 A UXGA (1600⳯1200) and SXGA image (1280⳯1024) is con-

verted into a 1600⳯1200 and 1024⳯768 crisp image respectiv ery with NEC technology’s Advanced AccuBlend on LT150.

*4 The PC Control Utility 1.0 is required. This program is included

on the supplied CD-ROM.

*5 The USB terminal meets the USB1.1 specification and accepts a
