9 CEILING MOUNTING
The projector is prepared for ceiling mounting. As opposed to desktop use
(most tables are approx. 80 cm tall, are flat and have a hard surface finish),
ceilings vary in height and material. Also considerations must be made with
respect to signal and power wiring.
9.1 SELECTING A MOUNT
Various mounting systems are available from different sources. Contact
your dealer for further details or consult vendor catalogs. Be sure that the
vendor has tested the mount with this specific projector for operational
safety. Check that the mounting brackets fit the integral mounts of the
projector (illustration below), and that the ventilation slots are not blocked.

USER GUIDE SVGA LCD PROJECTOR
9.2 MOUNTING IN THE CEILING
An improperly mounted projector is a potential danger to
people and equipment. A projector and mount falling down
may cause personal injury and material damage. Such
damage caused by bad workmanship in mounting and
operation may lead to legal action and should be avoided.
Avoid ceiling mounting of the projector in areas of frequent
or probable earthquakes.
When fixing the mount in the ceiling, be sure to check the ceiling material
and if it will hold the total weight of the mount and the projector. Look for
wood, steel beams or concrete that will secure a good and lasting fixture.
Avoid plaster or other fragile materials that do not have sufficient structural
properties. Follow the detailed instructions supplied with the ceiling mount
for proper mounting and operation.
After having mounted the projector in the ceiling, test if the holding force is
sufficient by adding a load to the mount at least double the weight of the
combined projector and mount. The mount should hold this extra weight with
no sign of fatigue and with no sign of mounting screws loosening.
9.3 WIRING
Ceiling mounted projectors require long signal and power wires. The signals
should be wired using high quality coaxial cable. The cables usually need to
be customized. Some vendors have specialized in this field. Contact your
dealer for further detail.
If the signal cables run over a longer distance from the source to the
projector, a line buffer (distribution amplifier) may be needed (available from
third party vendors).
For potential fire reasons, the power wiring should be
separately switched so that the projector can be switched off
completely when not in use. The ON/OFF on the remote
control only suspends operation of the projector without
switching off completely.

10 TROUBLE-SHOOTING
This is a checklist to help you pinpoint any problem that may arise. Check
the symptoms carefully if you experience any problem. The cure may be at
your fingertips!
Always check that the red LED indicator in the front of the
projector flashes when a key on the remote control is
pressed. This indicates that the projector is receiving signals
from the remote control.
Be aware that the projector has to cool down for 30 seconds
after entering standby-mode, before it can be turned back on
again.
The projected image is completely black.
• The unit may have overheated due to the ventilation slots being
covered while the projector was in use. Also ensure that the ambient
temperature is within spec.
• Check the air inlet filters, as they may need vacuuming (see
Maintenance). Wait until the unit has completely cooled down before
using again.
The projector is only displaying logo.
• Check if a source is connected.
The projected image is too dark or too light.
• Adjust the CONTRAST and BRIGHTNESS settings.
• Push HELP to view the setup picture/information.
• Press RESET, which will remove the pre-determined settings for the
current source, and make the setup adjustments again.
Some colors are unstable or flickering
• Try to improve the tuning by accessing TUNE in the menu system.
• Check first that there are no loose cable connections, or any bent
pins in the cable connector.
• You can try to adjust the image quality with the CONTRAST and
BRIGHTNESS keys.
28
USER GUIDE SVGA LCD PROJECTOR
The whole image appears to be unstable or misplaced
• Press reset.
• Adjust the frequency and tuning settings (instability), or the image
position settings (misalignment).
• Check that you are using a source with compatible resolution.
• The projector may be connected to a source with a non-standard
computer (or video card). Adjust the frequency and position of the
image.
Cooling fan is not working when lamp is lit
• If the fan does not work the projector must not be used and should
be returned to your dealer for repair.
The remote control is not working
• The red LED on the remote control should flash when transmitting. If
not, check the ON/OFF switch or the batteries.
• Make sure you point the remote control at the projection screen or
directly at the IR receivers. The front red LED indicator flashes when
receiving signals from the remote.
• The maximum range of the IR transmitters is 15m (50 feet) - Are you
standing close enough?
• If the effective range of the transmitters is significantly reduced, the
remote control needs new batteries.
The desktop mouse is not working
• Remember to follow this sequence when connecting the mouse:
- Connect the mouse cable.
- Connect the projector power cable
- Power on the computer
• You must boot the computer after the cable has been connected for
it to recognise the mouse. If you are unsure whether this was the
case, reboot your computer.
• Are the mouse cable (and mouse adapter) connections secure?
• Check the mouse driver settings on the computer

11 MAINTENANCE
The projector needs very little maintenance in order to function properly.
11.1 GENERAL
Use a damp cloth to wipe off dust on the exterior. Clean the lens with a
damp, non-abrasive cloth, using just water or a standard lens cleaning
solution available from photographic dealers.
Vacuum the air inlets periodically, especially when build-up
of dust is observed. This will ensure cool operation of the
unit.
Do not scratch the lens surface. Use the lens cap when the projector is not
in use for added protection. Remember to remove the lens cap before
operating the unit!
11.2 LAMP REPLACEMENT
The projector is using a custom UHP-lamp for illumination. The lamp is high
pressure when hot (operating or immediately after switch-off). Lamp
pressure is normal when cold.
A lamp timer is available in the menu system under HELP, ABOUT, that
may be used to track lamp operating time. The user may reset the timer.
Disconnect the power cord before opening the lamp lid to
change the lamp.
1. To change lamp, remove the lamp lid by pressing in the snap lock and
lifting up (see illustrations below). A safety switch will cut off the power
supply to the lamp completely.
2. Unscrew the 2 safety screws holding the lamp holder, fold out the
handle and pull out the old lamp holder.
3. Insert a new lamp holder/lamp all the way until it positively stops, fold
the handle and reverse the procedure above.
Use only original lamp and holder as specified. The lamp is
individually adjusted with the holder to maintain optimum
illumination. Replacement using a different lamp may result
in poor illumination, malfunction (potentially explosion) and
will void any warranties.

11.3 THE REMOTE CONTROL
The infrared remote control requires little maintenance.
The trackball element may be cleaned occasionally with a damp (not wet)
cloth. To take out the ball, twist the ring holding the ball anti-clockwise.
Having taken out the ball, you may also clean the trackball interior using a
damp (not wet) cotton swab.
To change the batteries, open the battery holder on the rear of the handset.
Remove the old batteries and dispose of carefully. Insert new batteries of
the type described in the Technical Data section, observing the polarity
instructions inside the battery holder, and close the snap lock door. Switch
the remote control back on by using the ON/OFF-switch on the right hand
side of the remote. Test that the remote control functions correctly by
pressing the LIGHT key to see if the backlighting operates properly.
