1 INTRODUCTION
The HT3000 HOST system combines the video signal
processing capacity of the HOST™ system with the reproductive fidelity of the a projector employing DLP™ technology, connecting the two units via optical fibre.
The HOST™ system, ideally placed next to the sources,
is able to acquire and process a very wide range of video
signals, and to send them, via an optical fibre connection,
to the projector.
Its range of inputs (2 Composite Video inputs, 2 S-Video inputs, 4 Component or RGB inputs (3 via Phono/RCA connection & 1 Via BNC connection), 2 graphic RGB inputs,
6 HDMI™ inputs, 1 SDI input, 1 DVI-D input) 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 permits 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 default 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 through its serial port , the 1.1
USB port, an RS232 serial port or the RJ45 Ethernet port.

Read this manual carefully.
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 housing there are electrical parts carrying dangerously high voltages and parts operating at high temperature.
Never open the housing. Entrust all servicing and repair work
to an authorised Service Centre. Opening the housing 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. Connect the units to a mains electrical supply
with rated voltage of between 110-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz and
equipped with a protective earth connection. If you are not
sure of your domestic mains rating, contact an electrician.
Take care to avoid overloading the power socket and any
extension leads.
Changing the fuses.
Before changing the fuse, disconnect the unit from the mains
power supply. The fuse compartment is next to the power
supply connector. Remove the fuse holder with a flat head
screwdriver and replace the fuse. Fit the replacement fuse.
Use only T 5A H fuses for the projector and T3 15A H fuses
for the HOST system.
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 not
become 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 during electrical
storms and when not in use.
To prevent damage from lightning strikes in the vicinity, disconnect the unit during storms or when the system is going
to be left unused for a long time.
Avoid contact with liquids and exposure to damp.
Do not use the unit near water (sinks, tubs, etc.); do not
place objects containing liquids on or near the units and do
not expose them to rain, humidity, drops of water or sprays;
do not use water or liquid detergent to clean them.
Do not allow the units to overheat.
To prevent overheating, allow a free space of at least 40
cm at the back of the projector. Do not obstruct the ventilation slots. Do not place the unit near heat sources such as
heaters, radiators or other devices (including amplifiers) that
generate heat. Do not place the unit in an area where there
is insufficient space (shelving units, bookshelves, etc.) and
in general avoid placing it in poorly ventilated areas as this
may prevent sufficient cooling.
Never look directly at the projection lamp.
Never look directly at the lamp when it is on as the intense light
may damage your eyes. Take particular care that children cannot
do so.
Take special care regarding movement of the lens.
Do not place objects in the slots on the side of the lens, and
also ensure that horizontal and vertical lens movements are
not impeded by external objects.
Place the unit on a stable surface.
Place the projector on a stable surface or use the ceiling
mounting bracket provided. Never place the projector on
its side or rear, on the 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.
Power saving.
We advise disconnecting the unit from the power supply when
not in use. In this way you will achieve considerable power savings while at the same time protecting internal electrical parts
from wear.
! ATTENTION:
Do not switch off the HOST system via the front panel
or remove the power without first setting the system
into standby and allowing the unit to complete the
cool down sequence. The HOST and projector are
in constant communication with each other, therefore when switching off the system, both units must
switched off together and vice versa when powering on the system. In the event of a power outage it
is recommended to completely reset the HOST and
projector.
PRODUCT DISPOSAL
This projector is fitted with a pressurised lamp
containing a small amount of mercury. These lamps
may be subject to special disposal regulations due to
environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or, if you are located in the USA, the Electronic

USB - RS232 INTERFACES
(CONTROL FIELD)
Projector functions can be controlled remotely from a PC or
other dedicated devices connected to the RS232 or USB
connectors on the connector panel.
We recommend using high quality serial or USB cables to
ensure that the electrical control signals do not deteriorate
and are therefore read correctly. A specific SIM2 driver must
be installed on the control PC, supplied by your dealer/distributor to use the USB port.
Upon request, SIM2 will also supply further instructions on
the protocol used for programming remote control systems.
MOTORISED SCREEN OUTPUTS
(1)
The projector is equipped with two outputs (Voltage: 12
Vdc) for motorised projection screen and screen masking
systems, used for masking off the projection area to match
the projected image aspect ratio.
The TRIG1 output is activated when the projector is switched
on (blue LED on) and is de-activated when the projector is
in standby mode (red LED on). The TRIG2 output can be
set with the Screen control adjustment in the Aspect menu.
This output is ideally suited for multiple aspect ratio screens
with motorized masking systems.

6 INSTALLATION
POSITIONING THE 2 UNITS
The HT3000 HOST system is made up of two separate units
(HOST and HT3000 projector), each of which have a power
cable and are connected to each other by a 20 m long optical fibre cable. Ideally, the HOST system should be placed
on the top of a cabinet. Make sure that the surface it stands
on is stable and that there is sufficient space around it to permit good ventillation (at least 3 cm). Place the projector on a
stable surface or use the optional ceiling mount bracket.
! WARNING: When using the ceiling mount bracket, the
safety instructions provided with the bracket must be strictly
observed. Placed the projector at the desired distance from
the screen: the size of the projected image depends upon
the distance between the lens and the screen and the zoom
setting. See the SETUP chapter for further details.
LED SIGNALS FOR THE TWO UNITS
CONTROLLING THE 2 UNITS
The remote control supplied (IR, infrared operation), permits full control of the system. It controls both the HOST™
system and the projector since both are equipped with an
IR sensor on the front while the projector also has an IR
receiver on the back. The two units are connected by a cable containing three optical fibres, each ending with an LC
connector. The standard cable length (20m), permits even
the most demanding installations.
• Take care that the cable is not too taught or that it can be
tugged: in addition to disconnecting the connectors, this
may cause damage to them.
After removing the protective caps from both the fibre connectors and the connectors on the panel, carefully insert
the fibres into the respective connectors matching the numbers marked on each element. Take the greatest care when
handling optical fibres and the connectors.
CONNECTIONS TO VIDEO SOURCES
Connect the cables from the video sources, the serial cable
from an external control device when used and the fibres for
connection to the projector to the back panel of the HOST
system. To get the best performance from your HT3000
HOST system, connect the various signal sources using high
quality cables specific for the video applications concerned.
PROJECTOR VENTILATION
“The lamp inside the projector generates a great deal of
heat, thus requiring a continuous flow of air to maintain optimum operating efficiency. The air inlet & outlet are on the
sides of the projector and it is critical that these vents remain free from obstruction. SIM2 recommends a distance
of 20 cm clearance each side. If the projectors is to be
mounted inside a “Hush Box” or a confined space then the
projector must be fed a supply of cool air to maintain good
ventilation. Inadequate ventilation will result in the projector
overheating, this may cause the projector to shut down randomly and will damage the lamp and significantly shorten
the lamp life.”
! WARNING:
When installing the optical fibre cable:
•
Handle the fibres carefully: touch the cable only where it is
sheathed. Never pull the fibres or connectors, only the cable.
•
Remove the protective cap covering the ferrule only when
inserting the connector: if it comes into contact with other
bodies it may be damaged and be unusable.
• Take special care when inserting the fibres into the respec-
tive connectors, located on the back panel of the HOST™
system and at the back of the projector.
• Make sure that the fibres are not inverted: match the num-
bers marked on the fibres with those on the connectors.
• Check that the connectors are correctly inserted.
•
Take care that the cable is not knotted and that, if it is bent, it
forms a curve with a radius of no less than 2 cm.
! WARNING:
Sources (BlueRay players, VCRs, DVD players, etc.) often have more than one output. To get the best results
from your system, carefully choose which output you use.
Generally the types of signal offering the best image quality are, in order, HDMI™ followed by SDI - DVI-D, RGB,

7 NETWORK FUNCTIONS (RJ45 connector)
NETWORK FUNCTIONS (RJ45 connector)
The HT3000 HOST system has a 10/100 Mbit Ethernet interface located on the HOST system connector panel to
connect the projector to a LAN network or to the Internet.
The network connection can be used to remotely control
the projector from any workstation with access to the network by sending TCP/IP protocol commands.
Additionally, by suitably configuring the network specifications, you can receive e-mail notifications on the operating
status of the HT3000 HOST system.

tested prior to shipping. SIM2 cannot be held responsible for damage caused to property or incurred costs
as a result of a malfunctioning cable.
TYPE OF IP ADDRESS
This screen permits you to select the type of IP address to
be assigned:
1. Static IP: the IP address, network SUBNET and GATEWAY must be entered manually.
2. Dynamic IP (DHCP): choose this option if you want the
projector IP address to be automatically assigned by the
network DHCP server (in most networks the DHCP server
is a router).

network to which the projector is connected has no DHCP
server, the current IP address displayed on screen may not
be valid.
be made (called TCP socket). Choose the port number and
set “Port 1”.
If you want to establish a connection with the projector via
the Internet, the port chosen for remote connection must
be accessible from outside (usually a Virtual Server is created in the network router to make the projector’s IP address accessible from a Personal Computer connected to
the Internet).
