1 INTRODUCTION

FULL HD

1920x1080

The D80 projector represents the state of the art in image processing combined with the innovative DLP™ sytsem and outstanding optics.

Its range of inputs (1 Composite Video input, 1 S-Video input, 1 Components or RGB input, 1 graphic RGB input, 1 HDMI™ inputs) allow it to be connected to a wide range of analogue and digital sources: DVD players, video recorders, satellite and terrestrial receivers, computers, video game consoles, camcorders, etc.

Its image processing system allows optimum reproduction of a wide range of input signals, from interlaced video to high definition and digital graphics. Faithful reproduction of signals at higher resolutions (such as high definition video and graphics) occurs without loss of information or reduction of image sharpness thanks to the processor’s high pixel rate signal acquisition capabilities.

Different input signal resolutions can be adapted to match the specified screen resolution without loss of image quality, thanks to a generous selection of preset aspect ratios, some of which are user definable.

All picture adjustments can be made with the remote control interacting with a simple menu-activated On Screen Display; alternatively, the projector can be controlled by a domestic automation system via its serial port.

The appliance has been subjected to exhaustive operating tests by SIM2 to ensure maximum quality. The projector bulb life should thus initially be around 30-60 hours. Besides the usual checks, the Quality Control department also runs additional statistical tests before despatch. In this instance the packaging may show signs of having been opened, and the hours operation of the lamp may be higher than the value required under standard procedures.

• Read this manual carefully and keep it in a safe place for future consultation.

This manual contains important information on how to

install and use this equipment correctly. Before using the equipment, read the safety prescriptions and instructions carefully. Keep the manual for future consultation.

• Do not touch internal parts of the units

Inside the cabinet there are electrical parts carrying

dangerously high voltages and parts operating at high temperature. Never open the cabinet. Entrust all servicing and repair work to an authorised Service Centre. Opening the cabinet voids the warranty.

• Disconnecting the appliance from the power supply.

The device which disconnects the unit from the mains is

the power plug. Ensure that the power cable plugs and the electrical mains socket outlets are easily accessible during installation operations. Pull the plug, not the cable, to disconnect the unit from the mains.

• Use only the specified power supply.

Before changing the fuse disconnect the unit from the

mains power supply.

The fuse compartment is next to the power supply con-

nector (Fig. 3). Remove the fuse holder (2) with a flat head screwdriver and replace the fuse (3). Fit a new spare fuse (4). Use only T 3,15 A H fuses.

Fig.3

• Be careful with cables.

Make certain cables are routed so that people will not be

impeded or tripped up.

Keep all cables away from children. Install the unit as close to the wall socket as possible. Avoid

stepping on power cables, make certain they do not become tangled, and never jerk or tug them; do not expose them to sources of heat, and make sure they do are not knotted or crimped. If the power cables become damaged, stop using the system and request the assistance of an authorised technician.

• Disconnect the unit from the mains power supply in the event of electrical storms and when not in use.

To prevent damage from lightning strikes in the vicinity,

disconnect the unit during storms or when the sytsem is going to be left unused for a long time.

• Do not allow the unit to overheat.

To prevent this, allow a free space of at least 40 cm around

the back of the projector. Do not block the ventilation slots. Do not place the unit near to heat sources such as ovens,

radiators or other devices (including amplifiers). Do not place the unit in a restricted area (shelving units,

bookshelves, etc.) and in general avoid placing it in poorly

ventilated areas as this can lead to overheating.

• Never look directly at the projection lamp.

Never look directly into the lamp when it is on as the inten-

se light can damage your eyes. Take particular care that

children cannot do so.

• Take special care regarding the movements of the

lens.

Do not place objects in the slots on the side of the lens,

and also ensure that the lens’s horizontal and vertical mo-

vements are unimpeded by external objects.

• Position the unit on a stable surface.

Place the projector on a stable surface or use the provided

ceiling mounting bracket. Never place the projector on its side or rear, lens or top

panel.

• Do not insert objects through the openings in the unit.

Make sure that no objects are inserted inside the units. If this

should occur, disconnect the unit from the power supply

immediately and call an authorised technician.

• Energy savings. Disconnect the power supply when the projector is not

in use. This will considerably reduce power consumption

and also lengthen the service life of the unit’s electrical

circuitry.

• Avoid contact with liquids and exposure to damp.

Do not use the unit near to water (sinks, tubs, etc.); do not

place objects containing liquids on or near to the unit and do not expose it to rain, humidity, drops of water or sprays; do not use water or liquid detergent to clean it.

4 INSTALLATION

Position the projector on a stable, suitable platform or utilise the optional bracket for a fixed ceiling installation.

WARNING: If using the ceiling mount bracket, scrupulously observe the safety instructions included with the bracket itself. If using a bracket other than that supplied by SIM2 Multimedia, make sure that the projector is at least 65 mm below the ceiling and that the bracket does not obstruct the air vents (intake and outlet).

If the projected image is not level, adjust the feet on its base to obtain a level position, lining up the base of the projected image to the base of the projection screen (Fig. 6).

Fig. 7

If this displacement is insufficient, tilt the projector and correct the keystone error with the Keystone adjustment in the Installation menu (Fig. 8).

Fig. 6

Place the projector at the desired distance from the screen: the size of the projected image is a function of the distance between the lens and the screen and the lens zoom setting. Use the motor zoom (Fig. 7) to zoom the projected image in and out. Use the motor focus function (Fig. 7) to obtain a clear image; if the image is correctly focused, you should be able to see each single pixel of the projected image when close to the screen (Fig. 7).

Fig. 8a

The Orientation adjustment in the Set up menu allows you to reverse the image vertically and horizontally (Fig. 9), to allow the projector to be used for desktop front, ceiling front, desktop rear and ceiling rear installations (Fig. 9).

To activate an electric motorised screen a 12 Volt output is provided at the rear of the projector (Fig. 10). The output is activated (Voltage: 12 Vdc) when the projector is switched on and is de-activated (no Voltage output) when the projector is in stand-by mode. You can also use black motirised curtains to delimit the screen when the projected image aspect ratio changes (Fig. 11a). This option is controlled via the output at the rear of the projector.

Prevent ambient light shining directly on the screen during projection as this will reduce the contrast of the projected image. Furniture and other objects with reflecting surfaces, as well as light coloured walls should be avoided, as they are likely to interfere with the screen’s characteristics.

Fig. 11a

The manual lens shift adjustment allows the projected image to be moved vertically, up or down, in relation to the centre of the screen; the maximum adjustment being equal to half the height of the image in either direction (Fig. 11b). Image shift range: 1/3 image.

For rear projection the screen must be translucent. For front projection, we recommend the use of a screen with black matt borders to contain the projected image. Preferably use a unit gain screen; high gain screens are only effective when used with a small group of viewers close to the screen’s axis.

WARNING: Connect the projector to a power supply with a nominal voltage within the following values: 110-240 V AC, 50/60 Hz. It must be earthed (Fig. 12).

Fig. 12

In position I the projector will initialise itself (red and green leds on) and then goes into standby mode (red led on) (Fig. 13).

SWITCH ON FROM STANDBY

With the remote control: press one of the keys 1...9 or with 0. With the keypad: press the ON/OFF button.

Fig. 14

When the unit is switched on from standby the lamp switches on; after a brief period of warming up, the image displays (green led on). The projected image comes from the input selected when the unit was last switched off (Fig. 14). If a very short time has passed since the unit was last switched off, the lamp may not switch on beause it is too hot. Just wait a few minutes for the lamp to cool down sufficiently.
