Remote Control Operating Range

The remote control uses infrared transmission to control the projector. It is not necessary to point the remote directly at the projector. Provided you are not holding the remote control perpendicular to the sides, the remote control functions within a radius of about 10 meters (33 feet) and 30 degrees above or below the projector level. If the projector does not respond to the remote control, move a little closer.
Avoid using the remote control with bright uorescent lighting turned on.
1.
Certain high-frequency uorescent lights can disrupt remote control operation.
Be sure nothing obstructs the path between the remote control and the projec-
2.
Important!
tor. If the path between the remote control and the projector is obstructed, you
can bounce the signal off certain reective surfaces such as projector screens.
