Basic information and preparations

About your UP-880 Checking the supplied

Congratulations On Your Purchase Of The UP-880 Data Projector

The UP-880 is one of the very best Data projectors available today . The UP-880 enables you to project precise images up to 300 inches across (measured diagonally) from your PC or Macintosh computer (desktop or notebook), VCR, document camera, laser disc player, DVD player, etc.

The Data Projector can be placed on a tabletop or cart, or permanently mounted on the ceiling*. You may use the Data Projector to project images from behind the screen. The supplied remote control can be used as wireless control and with the supplied mouse receiver to operate the mouse functions on your PC or Macintosh.

* Installing the UP-880 Data Projector on the ceiling must be done by

authorized PLUS technicians. Consult your dealer for more information.

The features you’ll enjoy

• Compatible with following various color systems:

– NTSC (U.S. and Canada standard) – PAL (Western Europe standard) – SECAM (France and Eastern Europe standard) – NTSC4.43 (Middle East country standard)

• Superior brightness of 800 ANSI lumens with A4 siz e and 4.5 kilograms

The DMD and our own optical design interact in a geometric effect to increase the light usage efficiency. Now y ou can reproduce the 3 basic colors (RGB) required for color reproduction on a single DMD. That means superior brightness, smaller size and lighter weight.

• Sharp, clear images

There is no RGB color separation, and the spaces between the individual pixels are not noticeable. That means sharp and clear reproduction of small characters and figures. Take a closer look and notice the difference in quality!

• Outstanding beauty when reproducing DVDs and other high picture-quality information sources

Faithful gray scale reproduction makes for more natural image displays. DVD and other high quality image sources bring out the true display capacity of the Data Projector.

• Screen not distorted to a trapezoid (keystoning) when projecting to the height of the line of vision

Because the projection position is already set to the height of the line of vision, there is no distortion of the screen to a trapezoid.

• Fully compatible with true SVGA; support for XGA using advanced intelligent compression technology

The advanced intelligent compression technology of the UP-880 enables it to present clear compression XGA images without any line omission.

• The remote control can be used to operate your PC or Macintosh when the supplied remote mouse receiver is connected

• The compact and easy to carry cabinet with its contemporary design complements any office, board room, or auditorium.

Make sure your box contains everything listed below. If any pieces and packing materials if you ever need to ship your UP-880 Data The number of accessories is indicated in brackets.

Using the Data Projector (continued)

Changing computer’s video resolutions

Depending on your computer's graphic capability, you may be able to select one of several resolutions. Generally a computer- either a PC or Macintosh- with 1 MB VRAM will run:

640 × 480 at 16.7 million colors (24 bit Truecolor) 800 × 600 at 65,000 colors. 1024 × 768 at 256 colors. As the resolution increases, the number of colors you can run

decreases. With 2 MB VRAM a computer will run: 640 × 480 at 16.7 million colors (24 bit Truecolor). 800 × 600 at 16.7 million colors (24 bit Truecolor). 1024 × 768 at 65,000 colors. 1280 × 1024 at 256 colors.

Windows 95

There are two methods you can use to change your resolution.

Method 1 1 Move your cursor to the background image and click.

2 In the "Properties" menu, select "Settings." 3 Change your resolution and click "OK." 4 You may be asked to reboot for the changes to take ef fect,

or a message saying that "Windows is about to r esize your display" may appear. You' ll be asked if you want to keep your settings. Select "Yes."

Notebook computers and resolution standards

This Data Projector is designed to project industry standardized video such as VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) or VGA (Video Graphics Array). Notebook computers do not use industry standards. They use whatev er timing is necessary to match their local LCD display. The end result is typicall y not standard. By turning off your notebook's display, the timing parameters are a bit more like the real VESA or VGA signal.

Method 2 1 Click on your "My Computer" icon.

2 Open "Control Panel" and select "Display." 3 Change your resolution and click "OK." after the new

resolution is selected.
