Notes on Operation

About the Temperature Monitor Function:

• If the projector starts to overheat due to set-up problems or a dirty air filter, “TEMP.” will flash in the upper-left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues to rise, then the lamp will turn off, the TEMPERATURE WARNING indicator will flash, and after a 90-second cooling-off period the power will shut off. Refer to page 32, “Maintenance Indicators,” when the “TEMP.” warning appears in the picture.

About the Lamp Monitor Function:

• When the projector is turned on after the lamp has been in use for more than 1,400 hours, the yellow “LAMP” display will flash on the screen for 60 seconds, as shown on the right. This is to alert you that it is time to replace the lamp. At this point, take your projector to the nearest Authorized Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center to have the lamp replaced.

• If the lamp is used for more than 1,500 hours, the projector power will automatically turn off, and the projector will be in STANDBY mode.

• Refer to page 32, “Maintenance Indicators,” when the “LAMP” display warning appears.

Caution: If “LAMP” begins to flash on the screen, be sure to take your projector to the nearest Authorized Sharp

How to set up the projector and screen

Cautions: When setting up the projector

• For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, SHARP recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the projector is subjected to these environments, the lens and filter must be cleaned more often. Periodically the filter should be replaced and the projector should be cleaned internally. As long as the projector is properly maintained in this manner, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life. Please note that all internal cleaning must be performed by an Authorized Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center.

• Do not expose to extreme heat or cold. Operating temperature: 41°F to 104°F (+5°C to +40°C) Storage temperature: ⳮ4°F to 140°F (ⳮ20°C to +60°C)

• Do not tilt the projector more than 5°.

■ Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly onto the screen washes out colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when using the screen in a bright or sunny room.

■ The best picture will be obtained when the projector is at a 90 degree angle to the screen. Position the projector and screen as shown.

Example of a standard setup

TOP VIEW

Lens center

The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen.

If the projector and screen are not centered properly, the picture will be distorted, making viewing difficult.

SIDE VIEW

■Using the horizontal reverse function makes the following setups possible.

Example of a reversed image setup

• By placing a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens and using the horizontal reverse function, the image

reflected from the mirror can be projected onto the screen.

• Rear projection with a rear projection screen is also possible when using the horizontal reverse function.

Adjusting the Height of the Picture

■ When adjustments for the projector position cannot be made using the Lens Shift alone, or when the projector stand is on an angle, use the adjuster release to adjust the vertical angle of the projector. Minor adjustments can be made with the adjusters.

Adjuster release

Adjusters

1. Press the adjuster release and lift the projector to the desired angle with both hands.

• The adjuster legs will extend to the surface of the table.

2. Remove your hand from the adjuster release.

• The adjuster legs will lock in position. Release the

projector once you are sure the adjuster legs have locked in position.

3. Make any minor adjustments necessary.

• Turn the adjusters to fur ther adjust the angle of the

projector.

Returning the projector to its original position

• While holding the projector with both hands, press the

adjuster release and slowly lower the projector to its original position.

Notes:

• When adjustments are made with the adjusters, the picture may

become distorted, depending on the relative positions of the projector and the screen.

• After adjusting, in some cases, all of the adjuster legs may not be

resting on the table. To prevent the projector from wobbling, adjust the adjuster legs so that they firmly contact the table.

Cautions:

• Do not press the adjuster release when the adjuster legs are extended

without firmly holding the projector.

• When lowering the projector, be careful not to get your fingers caught

in the area between the adjusters and the projector.

• Do not hold the lens when lifting or lowering the projector.

Transporting the Projector

Use the carrying handle when carrying the projector.

When transporting the projector, carry it by the handle located on the side of the unit.

Lamp/Maintenance Indicators

Lamp

■ The Lamp has a finite operating life of 1,500 hours. The lamp life may differ, however, depending on the usage environment.

• When the lamp is nearing the end of its operating life, the picture and color quality will deteriorate. When the projector is turned on after the lamp has been in use for more than 1,400 hours, the LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator will light red and “LAMP” will flash in yellow on the screen to alert you that it is time to replace the lamp. At this point, take your projector to the nearest Authorized Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center to have the lamp replaced.

Note: The lamp usage time can be checked with the On-Screen display. (See page 28.) Caution: Once you are alerted that the lamp requires replacement, take your projector to the nearest Authorized Sharp

Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center to have the lamp replaced.

• When the number of hours the lamp has been used reaches 1,500, the power automatically turns off and the projector enters the standby condition. If you turn on the power after the lamp has been used for 1,500 hours, “LAMP” will flash on screen in red letters for five minutes and then the power will turn off.

• Intense light hazard. Do not attempt to look into the aperture and lens while the projector is operating.

Our projector uses LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panels. These very sophisticated panels contain 786,432 pixels ( × RGB) TFTs (Thin Film Transistors). As with any high technology electronic equipment such as large screen TVs, video systems and/or video cameras, there are certain acceptable tolerances that the equipment must conform to. This unit has some inactive TFTs within acceptable tolerances, which may result in illuminated or inactive dots on the picture screen.

Specifications are subject to change without notice.
