Our projector uses LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panels. These very sophisticated panels contain 311,696 dots ( x 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 dots on the picture screen.
This will not affect the picture quality or the life expectancy of the unit.
If you have any questions about this matter, please call toll free 1-800-BE-SHARP (l-800-237-4277). (U.S.A.]

IMPORTANT SERVICE SAFETY NOTES

n Service work should be performed only by qualified service technicians who are thoroughly
familiar with all safety checks and servicing guidelines as follows:
WARNING
1. For continued safety, no modification of any circuit
should be attempted.
2. Disconnect AC power before servicing.
BEFORE RETURNING THE PROJECTOR:
(Fire & Shock Hazard)
Before returning the projector to the user, perform
the following safety checks:
1 .
2 .
3
.
Inspect lead wires are not pinched between the
chassis and other metal parts of the projector.
Inspect all protective devices such as non-metallic
control knobs, insulating materials, cabinet backs,
adjustment and compartment covers or shields,
isolation resistor-capacity networks, mechanical
insulators, etc.
To be sure that no shock hazard exists, check for
current leakage in the following manner:
Plug the AC cord directly into a 120,volt AC outlet,
(Do not use an isolation transformer for this test).
Using two clip leads, connect a 1.5k ohm, 10 watt
resistor paralleled by a 0.15uF capacitor in parallel
between all exposed metal cabinet parts and earth
ground.
Use an AC voltmeter with sensitivity of 5000 ohm per
volt., or higher, sensitivity to measure the AC voltage
drop across the resistor (See Diagram).
All checks must be repeated with the AC plug
connection reversed. (If necessary, a non-polarized
adapter plug must be used only for the purpose of
completing these checks.)
Any reading of 0.3 volts RMS (this corresponds to
0.2 milliamp. AC.) or more is excessive and indicates
a potential shock hazard which must be corrected
before returning the unit to the owner.

SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical parts in LCD Projector
have special safety-related characteristics.
These characteristics are often not evident from visual
inspection, nor can protection afforded by them be
necessarily increased by using replacement components
rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc.
Replacement parts which have these special safety
characteristics are identified in this manual; electrical
components having such features are identified by “A”
and shaded areas in the Replacement Parts Lists and
Schematic Diagrams.
For continued protection,
replacement parts must be identical to those used in the
original circuit. The use of a substitute replacement parts
which do not have the same safety characteristics as
the factory recommended replacement parts shown in
this service manual, may create shock, fire or other
hazards.
De nombreuses pieces, electriques et mecaniques, dans
AVIS POUR LA SECURITE
les projecteur a LCD presentent des caracteristiques
speciales relatives a la securite, qui ne sont souvent
pas evidentes a vue.

CONTROLLING THE TOTAL OPERATING HOURS OF THE LAMP

The following control is carried out when the lamp has been used for 1900 hours and 2000
hours.
1 .
2 .
3 .
4 .
After 1900-hour use
When the power is turned on, “LAMP” appears in the on-screen display for about 1 minute (flashing in yellow)
and the lamp LED indicator lights up in red. When the 1,900-hour point comes up during use of the unit, the
“LAMP” display starts flashing in yellow on the screen for 1 minute at the very 1,900-hour point. Now the lamp
LED indicator changes from green to red.
After 2000-hour use
When the power is turned on, “LAMP” appears in the on-screen display for about 5 minutes (flashing in red) and
the lamp LED indicator lights up in red. Five minutes thereafter, the power turns itself off and the unit is interrupted.
When the 2000-hour point comes up during use of the unit, the “LAMP” display starts flashing in red on the
screen for 5 minutes at the very 2000-hour point. Five minutes later, the power turns itself off and the unit is
interrupted. (The lamp LED indicator stays red since the 1900-hour point.)
If you try to turn on the power three times after the 2000-hour point, the unit remains off.
When the 2000-hour point comes up, take the following steps.
Replace the lamp with new one. While holding down both the “V0L.v” and “ADJY” keys on the unit, turn on
the main power switch (located on the side of the unit). The lamp operating hourmeter is now reset to zero. Turn
on the unit and make sure the time display shows “OOOOH”.
Displaying the total operating hours of the lamp (used to check the total time)
Change the STATUS3 data settings: PICTURE at 0, BRIGHT at MAX, COLOR at MIN, TINT at MIN, and
SHARPNESS at MAX. Hold down the SOUND DOWN and ENTER keys for longer than 3 seconds. By doing
this, the total operating hours will be displayed on the screen.

CONVERGENCE AND FOCUS ADJUSTMENT

l
Start the convergence
and focus adjustments with the top cabinet and the signal shield
removed but the power on. Use the remote control gun to adjust the image.Take the
following procedures.

1. Focusing the projection lens

(A) Replacing all the 3 LCD panels
1.
Before
replacing all the 3 LCD panels,
project an image on the screen and bring it into focus.
2. Replace the
panels with
new
ones. But
until
the focus
has been completely readjusted,
be
careful not to
change the distance between the set and the
screen, nor to move
the projection
lens focus and zoom
rings.
If
the
focus
is
readjusted with a different positional relation, the relation between the projection
distance
and the screen size is affected. In
other words, a short-distance image (40 WIDE, for example) may
get
out of the focus range, or a
long-distance
image (300
WIDE,
for example) may come out of focus.
(B) Replacing
1 or 2 of the 3 LCD panels
1. In adjusting
the focus after replacement of one or two LCD
panels, project
an image on the screen and turn
the projection lens focus ring to get the non-replaced LCD panel into focus.
2. But until the focus has been completely adjusted for the new LCD panels, be careful not to change the
distance between the set and the screen, nor to move the projection lens focus and zoom rings.
(If
the distance has been changed or the projection lens readjusted, repeat the above steps 1 and 2.)

2. Adjusting the G-LCD panel

(A) Focus adjustment. (Make this adjustment on the white-only screen.)
1. Right-and-left focus adjustment (0Y direction) .
Loosen the lock screws “b” and “c” and insert the eccentric screwdriver into the notch and hole ‘lb”. Turn
the screwdriver until the right and left halves on the screen get into focus.
First get the right and left halves in balance. Then improve the accuracy while making the adjustment 2
below.
2 .
3
.
‘Top-center-bottom focus adjustment (0X and Z directions).
Loosen the lock screws “a” and “c”
and insert the eccentric screwdriver into the notch and hole “a” or “c”.
Turn the screwdriver until the top, center and bottom on the screen get into focus. In adjusting this top-to-
bottom focus, temporarily tighten the lock screw “b” to fix the 8Y direction adjustment.
Repeat the above steps 1 and 2 to finely adjust the focus.
Finally tighten up all the lock screws.
Note
:
@ Carefully proceed with the focus adjustment because the adjusting directions are correlated.
@ In adjusting the convergence and focus, do not move the projection lens zoom and focus rings until the end
of all the adjustments.
(B) Convergence adjustment
l
The G-LCD panel has no convergence adjustment mechanism. Use this panel as convergence adjustment
reference.

3. B-LCD panel adjustment (the same for the R-LCD panel)

(A) Focus adjustment
l Take the same procedure as for the G-LCD panel focus adjustment. Note that the adjustment range is small
in the Z direction. If the convergence is quite different between the B-LCD and G-LCD panels, roughly adjust
the convergence first and then the focus.
(B) Convergence adjustment
l Use a crosshatch pattern signal for this adjustment.
Make the adjustment just for the G-color and the relevant color.
(1)
(2)
(3)
Loosen the convergence lock screw “d”.
With the G-LCD panel’s screen center as reference, adjust the B-LCD panel in the X, Y and 8Z directions.
Finally tighten up the convergence lock screw I’d”.

Note :
@ The eccentric cam is used for convergence adjustment. This means that the cam’s turning and the linear
movement are not always uniform.
@ This model is not equipped with the LCD image adjustment mechanism.This is because the dichroic prism
is used for image formation. When the LCD panels all get into the best focus, the images are almost
completely converged.

Replacing the LCDs

With the top cabinet removed
(1) Remove the output shield.
(2) Disconnect the LCD flat cable from the output PWB connector.
(3) Remove the lock screws “b” and
“c”. Detach the R/B adjusting plate or the G adjusting plate together with the LCD
panel.
(4) Separate the LCD panel from the adjusting plate.
* (5) Mount a new LCD panel in
the reverse order of the above steps (l), (2), (3) and (4).
* Readjust the convergence and
focus. Note that the G LCD
panel
needs
no convergence adjustment
and has
a small adjl
_rstment range in the Z direction.
