· For continued safety, no modification of any circuit must be
attempted.
· Unplug the power cord from the power outlet before
disassembling this projector.
·Use correctly the supplied power cord and must ground it.
·It is advisable to use an isolation transformer in the AC
power line before the service.
· Be careful not to touch the rotation part (cooling fan, etc.) of
this projector when you service with the upper case
removed and the power supply turned ON.
· Observe the original lead dress during the service. If a short
circuit is found, replace all the parts overheated or
damaged by the short circuit.
· After the service, all the protective devices such as
insulation barriers, insulation papers, shields, and isolation
R-C combinations must be properly installed.
· After the service, check the leakage current to prevent the
customer from getting an electric shock.
1.2. Leakage Current Check
1. Prepare the measuring circuit as shown in Fig.1.
Be sure to use a voltmeter having the performance
described in Table 1.
Table 1
Fig. 2
2. Assemble the circuit as shown in Fig. 2. Plug the power
cord in a power outlet.
3. Connect M1 to T1 according to Fig. 2 and measure the
voltage.
4. Change the connection of M1 from T1 to T2 and measure
the voltage again.
5. The voltmeter must read 0.375 V or lower in both of steps
3 and 4. This means that the current must be 0.75 mA or
less.
6. If the reading is out of the above standard, the projector
must be repaired and rechecked before returning to the
customer because of a possibility of an electric shock.

1.3. UV Precaution and UHM Lamp
Precautions
· Be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet
when replacing the lamp.
· Because the lamp reaches a very high temperature during
its operation, wait until it cools completely when replacing
the Lamp Unit.
· The lamp emits small amounts of UV-radiation, avoid directeye contact with the light.
· The lamp unit has high internal pressure. If improperly
handled, explosion might result.
To ensure safety, the protection circuit of the main unit functions, and this projector becomes operation halt condition (a part of
circuit is energizing) when the lamp unit cover is removed or installed incorrectly.
When servicing, install the lamp unit cover in former position when energizing with the upper case removed.
(Be careful enough for safety.)

* If the projector installed at an elevation of 1 400 m or higher sea level, be sure to set the HIGH ALTITUDE MODE sub-menu
in PROJECTOR SETUP menu to ON, and attempt the calibration.
When OK is selected and ENTER button is pressed, the calibration is executed.
·When the calibration is started, the screen becomes whole magenta.
·While calibrating, all lamps will light (DUAL mode).
·Do not switch OFF the projector while calibrating.
·When the magenta screen will disappear in approx. 15 minutes and it returns to the normal screen, the calibration is
completed.
· Turn the POWER switch OFF and turn ON it again, then confirm whether to operate normally.

When multiple projectors are connected as part of the system, connect to units with a M3 stereo mini jack commercial cable to
simultaneously control multiple main units with a single remote control through the REMOTE1 IN/OUT terminal. It is effective to use
the wired remote control in the environment in which an obstacle stands in the light path or where devices are susceptible to outside
light.

7.2.1. When replacing the A-P.C.Board
·Transfer the data of the original A-P.C.Board to the new A-P.C.Board using the adjustment software and a personal computer.
·If you cannot transfer the data that uses the adjustment software, remove IC3102-IC3104 from the original board and mount
them on the new board.
· Set the model name according to the item 8. "MODEL" in the paragraph 4.3.1. "EXTRA OPTION".
* Consult your dealer or Authorized Service Center for the adjustment software.
DMD block
7.2.2. When replacing the WL-P.C.Board
· When WL-P.C.Board is replaced, explain that to the customer because the MAC (Media Access Control) address for wired LAN
is changed.
7.3. Replacement of the lithium battery on the A-P.C.Board
If the lithium battery will be empty, replace it with a new one (CR2032 or equivalent).
Cautions
·Explosion may occur if replacing the battery with an incorrect one.
·Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
8 Cautions for Service
Service or repair the product according to service information on the service manual, etc. so that a fire, injury or electric shock
caused by an improper repair may not occur.
1. Do not modify equipments, components and materials when attempting to service or repair.
2. Do not repair nor connect wires even in case of a part of the disconnection when the wiring unit is supplied as a replacement
parts, replace the wiring unit (complete).
3. For a fasten terminal (push-in type terminal), pull out or insert straightly without twisting it.
4. When the fuse has blown, do not turn on the power supply replacing only the fuse because the secondary disaster of fumes,
fire or other hazards is expected. Turn on the power supply after doing the confirmation and measures of defective causes
(structure and circuit, etc.).
5. After the service or the repair is completed, confirm the operation of the product is normal.
6. Do handling and safekeeping carefully because the user setup information remains in the projector.
8.1. Servicing Methods
· Never unplug the power cord from the outlet, open the circuit breaker, or perform other procedures to cut off the power line
during the operation of any cooling fan.
· Be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet before servicing.
Powering off the projector
1. Press the POWER STANDBY "
2. Select "OK" with
orbutton and press the ENTER button. (or press the POWER STANDBY "" button again.)
The projection of the image stops, and power indicator of the main unit lights up orange. (The cooling fan keeps running.)
3. Wait until the power indicator of the main unit turns to red (i.e., until the cooling fan stops).
4. Press the "
" marked side of the MAIN POWER switch to remove all power from the projector.
8.2. Light Source Lamp
Strong light is emitted from the projector´s lens. Never look into the lens while the projector is being used. If you look directly into
this light, it can hurt and damage your eyes.
