SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.

The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 13A fuse. Should
the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked
above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug, must be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut off the
mains plug and fit an appropriate type.

DANGER:

The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and disposed of in
a safe manner.
Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a serious
electric shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:

IMPORTANT:

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue: Neutral

Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

• The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.

• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.
Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug.
Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:

• If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.

• The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead, and not simply over the lead wires.
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Cautions Concerning the Laser Pointer

The laser pointer on the remote control emits a laser beam from the laser
pointer window. This is a Class II laser which may impair your sight if directed
into the eyes. The two marks shown on the left are caution labels for the laser
beam.

• Do not look into the laser pointer window or shine the laser beam on yourself or
others. (The laser beam used in this product is harmless when directed onto
the skin. However, be careful not to project the beam directly into the eyes.)

• Always use the laser pointer at temperatures between 5°C and 40°C.

• Use of controls or adjustments, or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

LAMP MAY RUPTURE.

RUPTURE POSSIBLE DE LA

Cautions Concerning the Setup of 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 must
be cleaned more often. As long as the projector is regularly cleaned, use in
these environments will not reduce the overall operation life of the unit. Internal
cleaning should only be performed by a Sharp Authorised LCD Projector
Dealer or Service Centre.

Notes on Operation

• The exhaust vent, the lamp cage cover and adjacent areas may be extremely

hot during projector operation. To prevent injury, do not touch these areas until
they have sufficiently cooled.

• Allow at least 10 cm of space between the exhaust vent and the nearest wall or

obstruction.

• If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection device will automatically

turn off the projector lamp. This does not indicate a malfunction. Remove the
projector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Then
turn on the power by plugging the power cord back in. This will return the
projector to the normal operating condition.

Setting Up the Screen

Using the Adjustment Feet

Using the Adjustment Feet

Rotate feet to adjust height of the projector.

Up Down

• The projector is adjustable up to approximately 5° from the standard position.

• When the height of the projector is adjusted, the image may become distorted (keystoned), depending on the relative
positions of the projector and the screen.

CAUTION

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

• When lowering the projector, be careful not to get your fingers caught in the area between the adjustment feet and the
projector.

Adjusting the Projection Distance

H

L

X

Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level to achieve an optimal image.
Move the projector forward or backward if the edges of the image are distorted.

• The projector lens should be centred in the middle of the screen. If the lens centre is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be
distorted, making viewing difficult.

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

• A polarizing screen cannot be used with this projector.

Six optional lenses from Sharp are also available for specialised application. Please see your local Sharp Authorised
LCD Projector Dealer for details on all the lenses. (Refer to the lens operation manual when attaching a lens.)
Be sure to have service personnel install optional lenses.

Image Projection

Rear Projection

• Place a translucent screen between the projector and

the audience.

• Use the projector’s menu system to reverse the

projected image. (See page 56 for use of this
function.)

• Optimal image quality can be achieved when the projector

is positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat
and level.

Projection Using a Mirror

• When the distance between the projector and screen

is not sufficient for normal rear projection, you can
use a mirror to reflect the image onto the screen.

• Place a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens.

• Project the normal image onto the mirror.

• The image reflected from the mirror is projected onto

the translucent screen.

• When using a mirror, be sure to carefully position both the

projector and the mirror so the light does not shine into the
eyes of the audience.

Setup & Connections

CAUTION

Ceiling-mount Projection

• It is recommended that you use the optional Sharp

ceiling-mount bracket for this installation.

• Before mounting the projector, contact your nearest

Sharp Authorised LCD Projector Dealer or Service

This projector can be used together with other projectors managed using the accompanied Sharp Advanced
Presentation Software—Professional Edition to create a videowall projection. Whereas conventional videowall
technology required the use of an image distributor, this projector videowall feature enables easy image settings
from a PC when inputting a single video source. This function greatly simplifies videowall setup.
RS-232C OUTPUTS also realise the simple daisy chain connection. The master projector directly connected to the
computer can make the daisy chain connection with multiple slave projectors. For details on setting master or
slave, see page 63.

Guide to Effective Presentations

Electronic presentations are one of the most effective
tools presenters can use to persuade an audience.
There are several ways to enhance your presentation
and maximise your effectiveness. The following are
guidelines to help you create and deliver a dynamic
presentation.

a. Types of Presentations

Computer Presentations

• To present basic information such as graphs, spreadsheets,
documents and images, use word processing and spreadsheet
applications.

• To convey more complex information and create more dynamic
presentations which allow you to control the pace of your delivery,
utilise software such as Astound
PowerPoint

• For high-end multimedia and interactive presentations, use software
such as Macromedia Director

Video Presentations

Use of video equipment, such as a VCR, DVD player and laser disc
player, can be effective for delivering instructional or illustrative
information that is difficult to present.

Digital Cameras and Personal Digital Assistants
(PDAs)

For highly compact and portable presentations, digital still cameras,
digital video cameras, document cameras and PDAs are ideal for
transferring data without cumbersome conversions.

Multimedia Presentations

You can integrate all of the above methods for a full multimedia
presentation including video, audio, computer applications and World
Wide Web information.

b. Creative Presentations

Oftentimes presenters do not take advantage of the many
subtle ways they can manipulate their electronic slides to more
effectively persuade the audience.

Colour has a great effect on the audience during a
presentation. When used correctly and legibly, studies show
that background and foreground colours establish an
emotional tone for a presentation, help viewers understand
and retain information, and influence an audience to take a
desired course of action.

Appendix

75

on Black

Colour Considerations

• Choose legible colours.

• Text and graphics colours need sufficient contrast.

• Use darker colours for the background since a lighter background
can create uncomfortable glare. (Yellow on black creates an ideal
contrast.)

Guide to Effective Presentations

• Background colours can subconsciously affect the

audience:

Red

Red—increases viewers’ pulse and breathing and

encourages risk taking but can also be associated with
financial loss.

Blue

Blue—has a calming and conservative affect on the

audience but can also create boredom among corporate
audiences that are often inundated with this background
colour.

Green

Black

Green—stimulates interaction.

Black—conveys finality and certainty. Use it as a transitional

colour between slides when moving from one idea to
another.

• Foreground colours create a major impact on how well an
audience understands and remembers a message.

• Use one or two bright colours for emphasis.

• Highlight important messages.

• The eye has a difficult time reading certain coloured text on
certain coloured backgrounds. For example, text and
background colours in red and green, and blue and black
make for difficult viewing.

• Colourblind individuals may find it difficult to distinguish
between red and green, brown and green, and purple and

f

e o

p

s
t

n

e fo

.

blue. Avoid using these colours together.

Fonts

• One of the most common mistakes in any type of
presentation visual is the selection of type fonts that are too
small, too thin, or too difficult to read.

Sans-serif

Serif

• If you are not sure how well a given font will read on a screen
at various sizes, try this: Draw a 15 cm  20 cm box on a
piece of paper and print out several lines of text inside the
box with your computer printer at 300 or 600 dpi resolution.
Vary the sizes of text to simulate headline, body and text
call-outs for any charts or graphs. Hold the printout at arm’s
length. This is how your text will look on a 1.2 meter-wide
screen at 3 meters, on a 2.3 meter-wide screen at 6.1 meters
and a 3.7 meter-wide screen at 9.1 meters. If you cannot
read the text easily, you should put less copy on your visuals
or use larger typefaces.

• Design your visuals so that they are visible by the viewer in
the last row.

• Nothing will ruin your presentation faster than misspelled
words. Take the time to proofread and edit your work before
your visuals become a permanent part of your presentation.

• Mixed case text is easier to read than text which is displayed
in capital letters.

• Another important attribute of fonts is whether any particular
face is serif or sans-serif. Serifs are small, usually horizontal
cross strokes that are added to the end of a letter’s main
strokes. Because of their ability to coax the eye along the
line of type, fonts with serifs are generally acknowledged to
be more readable.

c. Set-Up

When giving a presentation, you need to set the stage both
figuratively and literally for success. The way you set up a
presentation room will have a great impact on the audience’s
perception of you and your message. By manipulating the
placement and use of the following tools, you will improve the
impact of your presentation.

Lighting—Good lighting is an important component of a
successful presentation. You should strive to create an
unequal distribution of light. An audience should always see
as much of the presenter’s face as possible, so most of the
light should be focused on you. Because it is important for
you to be able to read the audience’s faces and body
language, some light should be shed upon them. However,
no light should shine on the screen.

Stage— When presenting on the same level surface that your
audience is on, most people can only see the top one-third of
your body. Therefore, it is recommended that when giving a
presentation to an audience of 25 or more, you stand on a
stage or platform. As more of your body is visible, the easier
it is to communicate with an audience.

Appendix

Podiums—The best presenters avoid podiums because they
hide 75% of the body and restrict movement. However, many
people feel more comfortable with a podium to hold their notes
and hide their discomfort. If you must use a podium, angle it
at 45 degrees to the audience so that you are not completely
hidden.

Visuals—It is imperative that you make sure your visuals are
large enough and projected far enough for the audience to
see. Eight times the height of an image is the optimal viewing
distance to read 24 point type. The bottom of a screen should
be at least 1.8 meters above the floor.

Screen—The screen should always be in the centre of the
room so that all audience members can see it. Because people
read from left to right, you should always stand to the
audience’s left when discussing visuals.

Seating—Arrange seating according to the dynamics of your
presentation. If the presentation is more than half-a-day, use
classroom style seating—a chair and a desk. If you would
like to encourage audience interaction, use chevron seating,
angling the chairs into a “V” shape. When you have a very
small audience, a “U” shaped arrangement will increase
interchange.

d. Rehearsing & Delivery

• The best time to rehearse is the day or evening before,

• Due to varying processor speeds of computers,

• Whenever possible, set up your equipment well in

• Thoroughly check every piece of equipment you bring

• Make sure you are completely familiar with the control

• If you are using a microphone, check it out before

not a couple of hours before, and the best place to
rehearse is in the actual room. Rehearsing a speech

panel on your projector and remote controls.

hand and walk around to see where you might have
problems with feedback. Avoid standing in these
problem areas during your presentation.

e. Presentation Tips

• Before beginning, visualise yourself delivering an
outstanding presentation.

• Know your speech, memorising at least the first three
minutes of your presentation will allow you to focus
on your rhythm and pacing.

• Speak to early arrivals to help you build a rapport
with the audience and make you feel more
comfortable.

• Do not be overly dependent on your visuals by reciting
what your audience is already reading. Know your
material well enough to be able to deliver the
presentation with ease. Use your visuals to emphasise
keypoints.

• Be sure to project your voice clearly and use eye
contact to maintain audience attention.

• Do not wait until halfway through your presentation to
get your point across. If you wait and try to create a
“build-up”, you may lose some of your audience along
the way.

• Keep your audience’s attention. As most people only
focus for 15 to 20 minutes during a one-hour
presentation, it is important to recapture their attention
periodically. Use phrases like, “This is critical to my
point” or “This is absolutely fundamental” to remind
them you are saying something they need to hear.

(RS-232C) Specifications and Command Settings

PC control

A computer can be used to control the projector by connecting an RS-232C cable (null modem, cross type, sold
separately) to the projector. (See page 16 for connection.)

Communication conditions

Set the serial port settings of the computer to match that of the table.
Signal format: Conforms to RS-232C standard.
Baud rate: 9,600 bps
Data length: 8 bits
Parity bit: NON
Stop bit: 1 bit
Flow control: None

Basic format

Commands from the computer are sent in the following order: command, parameter, and return code. After the
projector processes the command from the computer, it sends a response code to the computer.

Command format

C1 C2 C3 C4 P1 P2 P3 P4

Command 4-digits

Parameter 4-digits

Return code (0DH)

Response code format

Normal response

O K

Return code (0DH)

Problem response (communication error or incorrect command)

E R R

Return code (0DH)

When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the OK response code for the previous
command from the projector is verified.

• When using the computer control function of the projector, the projector operating status cannot be read to the computer.
Therefore, confirm the status by transmitting the display commands for each adjustment menu and checking the status with
the On-screen Display. If the projector receives a command other than a menu display command, it will execute the com­mand without displaying the On-screen Display.

Commands

EXAMPLE

• When “BRIGHT” of INPUT 1 IMAGE ADJUSTMENT is set to 10.

• This projector may not be able to display images from notebook computers in simultaneous (CRT/LCD) mode. Should this
occur, turn off the LCD display on the notebook computer and output the display data in “CRT only” mode. Details on how
to change display modes can be found in your notebook computer’s operation manual.

• This projector can receive 640  350 VESA format VGA signals, however, “640  400” will appear on the screen.

• When receiving 1,600  1,200 VESA format UXGA signals, sampling occurs and the image is displayed with 1,024 lines,
causing part of the image to be blocked.

This SHARP 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 video cameras, there
are certain acceptable tolerances that the equipment must conform
to.

Specifications are subject to change without notice.

This unit has some inactive TFTs within acceptable tolerances which
may result in illuminated or inactive dots on the picture screen. This
will not affect the picture quality or the life expectancy of the unit.

Glossary

Aspect ratio

Width and height ratio of an image. The normal aspect ratio of a computer and video image is 4 : 3. There are also wide images with an aspect ratio of 16 : 9
and 21 : 9.

Auto Sync

Optimises projected computer images by automatically adjusting certain characteristics.

Background

Initial setting image projected when no signal is being input.

Border

Displays the 4:3 image as the biggest size (768576) that can be displayed on the WIDE mode screen (1024576).

Clock

Clock adjustment is used to adjust vertical noise when clock level is incorrect.

CLR Temp (Colour temperature)

Function that can be used to adjust the colour temperature to suit the type of image input to the projector. Decrease the colour temperature to create warmer,
reddish images for natural flesh tones, or increase to create cooler, bluish images for a brighter picture.

Composite sync

Signal combining horizontal and vertical sync pulses.

Digital shift

Shifts image up or down easily by ∂/ƒ buttons when RESIZE mode of input image is BORDER, STRETCH or SMART STRETCH of COMPUTER (except for
SXGA and UXGA), VIDEO and DTV inputs.

Dot by dot

Mode that projects images in their native resolution.

DVI

Digital Visual Interface that supports both digital and analog displays.

GAMMA

Image quality enhancement function that offers a richer image by brightening the darker portions of the image without altering the brightness of the brighter
portions. You can select four different modes : STANDARD, GAMMA 1, GAMMA 2 and CUSTOM.

Intelligent compression and expansion

High quality resizing of lower and higher resolution images to fit the projector’s native resolution.

Intelligent digital keystone correction

Function to digitally correct a distorted image when the projector is set up at an angle, smoothes out jaggies on keystone images and compresses the image
not only horizontally but vertically keeping the 4 : 3 aspect ratio, and at the same time, calculates the aspect ratio automatically adjusting to the lens shift width.

Keylock level

Mode that can lock the operation of projector buttons to prevent mischief.

Lamp Mode

Mode that enables you to use two lamps in different combinations. You can select four different modes : Both Lamps (use two lamps simultaneously), Lamp 1 only
(use only lamp 1), Lamp 2 only (use only lamp 2 ) and Equal Use (use lamp 1 and lamp 2 alternatingly).

Lens shift

The lens can be easily raised and lowered to minimise or eliminate “Keystone” type effect.

Magnification (ENLARGE)

Digitally zooms in on a portion of an image.

Optional Board

The expansion board (sold separately) enables you to respond to the image signal for business-use and RS-422 control.

Phase

Phase shift is a timing shift between isomorphic signals with the same resolution. When phase level is incorrect, the projected image typically displays horizontal
flicker.

Picture in Picture

Allows you to add video images onto a data screen image, providing you with even more effective presentations.

Presentation tools

Helpful tools used to emphasise keypoints throughout a presentation.

Progressive Mode

The progressive display projects a smoother video image. You can select three different modes : 2D Progressive, 3D Progressive and Film Mode.

RESIZE

Allows you to modify or customise the picture display mode to enhance the input image. You can select six different modes: NORMAL, FULL, DOT BY DOT,
BORDER, STRETCH and SMART STRETCH.

RS-232C

Function to control the projector from the computer by using the RS-232C ports on the projector and computer.

Set Inputs

Function to limit inputs. For example, when setting Input 2 to “OFF”, the input is switchable only between Input 1 and Input 3, skipping Input 2.

Smart Stretch

Mode that stretches the right and left sides of the 4:3 image horizontally while maintaining the aspect ratio around the centre of the image to display it on the WIDE
screen.

Stack Setting

Prevents trouble with adjustment and operation when stack projecting. When setting two projectors, one to master and the other to slave, the slave follows the
master’s operation.

Appendix

Status function

Displays the settings of each adjustment item.

Stretch

Mode that stretches the 4:3 image horizontally to display it on the WIDE screen.

Sync on green

Video signal mode of a computer which overlaps horizontal and vertical sync signal to green colour signal pin.

3D DNR (3D Digital Noise Reduction)

Provides high quality images with minimal dot crawl and cross colour noise.
