1 INTRODUCTION
The HT5000 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, 2 Components or RGB input - 4 RCA - 5 BNC, 2 Graphic RGB input, 6 HDMI™ inputs, 1 HD-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 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, by a USB 1.1 connection or by ethernet RJ45 connection.
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.
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 con-
nector. Remove the fuse holder with a flat head screwdriver and replace the fuse. Fit a new spare fuse. Use only T 5A H fuses.
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.
• 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
ht5000
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.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• PRODUCT DISPOSAL This projector utilizes a pressurizzed lamp containing a small
amount of mercury. Disposal of these materials may be regulated due to enviromental considerations. For disposal or recycling informationplease contact your local autorities or, if you are located in the United States of America, the Electronic Industries Alliance.

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. 2).
Fig. 3
If this displacement is insufficient, tilt the projector and correct the keystone error with the Keystone adjustment in the Installa­tion menu (Fig. 4).
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. 3) to zoom the projected image in and out. Use the motor focus function (Fig. 3) 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. 3).
Fig. 2
Fig. 4
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. 5).

TRIG 1
TRIG 2
TRIG 2TRIG 1
Fig. 5
To activate an electric motorised screen a TRIG1 output is provided at the rear of the projector (Fig. 6). 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. 7). This option is controlled via the output TRIG2 at the rear of the projector.
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. 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.
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.

6 CONNECTIONS
Fig. 11
To obtain the best performance from your projector, we recom­mend the use of good quality “video cables” to the various signal sources (75 ohm Impedance).
Poor quality cables will cause inferior picture performance.
For optimum connectivity we recommend you follow these simple steps:
With exception of coaxial RCA/Phono type connectors, always double-check that the plug is inserted the correct way round to avoid damaging the plugs or the sockets on the projector.
Remove cables by the plug and do not pull on the cable itself. Avoid tangled cables. Position the cables carefully to avoid a trip hazard espe­cially in low light areas.

Fit an RCA connector with a Composite Video (CVBS) signal to this input. The output connector on the external appliance is normally coloured yellow and will often be labelled VIDEO. Other signal and socket formats may be preferable (because they give better image quality), but this type of output socket is still the most commonly used, and nearly all television receivers, video recorders, DVD players and camcorders, etc. use it.
S-VIDEO
Fit a mini-DIN connector with an S-Video signal to this input. The corresponding output at the external device is normally identifiable by the labels S-VIDEO or Y/C. This type is nearly as common as Composite Video, and is preferable to the latter, since it gives higher image quality.
RGB/YPrPb
These inputs use a set of 4 RCA connectors and 5 BNC con­nectors. RGB and Component signals can be applied to each set of connectors. With thi viseo signals is possible to set YPrPb video mode. RGB signals can have composite synchronisation on the green signal (RGsB), or on the HV signal. Connect the R, G, B outputs of the source to the respective R, G, B inputs of the HT5000 (taking care not to invert the positions) and any synchronisation signals to the HV. When hooking up, use the colours of the RCA connectors as an aid as follows: the R connector is red, G is green, B is blue and HV is white. You can use a SCART to RCA adapter cable to connect the RGB signal from a source equipped with a SCART output to this input. The Component signals connect to the Y, Pr and Pb inputs: take care that the inputs correspond to the outputs on the source device. Since these can be labelled differently, refer to Table 1 to establish the correspondence between the various signals. As indicated in the table, the colours of the connectors can also be of help. Only horizontal scanning frequencies of 15 kHz (standard video resolution) or 32 kHz (high definition video, with progressive scanning) can be applied to this input. Progressive signals usually provide better quality than interlaced signals, but if the source features both progressive and deinter­laced signal outputs it is good practice to compare the quality
of the pictures reproduced by the HT5000 in the two cases: the deinterlacing performed by the HT5000 is often more effective than that performed by the source itself.
GRAPHICS RGB / YPRPB
This input should be connected to an RGB-type video or graphic signal using a cable with a DB15HD type connector. The signal source device (typically a personal computer or game console) must be able to provide separate H/V synchronisation or composite H+V synchronisation.
DVI-D
This input allows you to advantage from the quality of the di­gital images .If your source is equipped with a DVI-D output, YCrCb or RGB connect it to this input to exploit the quality of the HT500E-LINK system.
HDMI™
HDMI™ (High Definition Multimedia Interface) integrates an uncompressed high definition video signal with a multichannel audio signal and allows exchange of control data between the video source and the HT5000. The HDMI input allows connection to video sources that use the HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) protocol to protect their contents. Once the video source has been connected to the HDMI input, internal processing by the HT5000 separates the video information from the audio information. The audio information is made available on a digital output with a female TOSLINK connector in compliance with the S/PDIF standard. You can use a DVI-D > HDMI adapter cable to connect the DVI-D signal from a source equipped with a DVI-D output.
SDI
HDSDI / SDI imput allow to connet digital serial sourses in com­ponent YPrPb in according of standards SMPTE292M (hight definition) and SMPTE259M-C (standard resolution). The signal is not compressed and it's transported by a coaxial cable in digital mode.

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 (Fig. 12). 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 output TRIG2 can be set with the “Screen control” adjustment in the “Aspect” menu. This output allows reduction in the area of a 16:9 screen, into a 4:3 format, by activating a horizontal screen masking system.
8 REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control requires four 1.5 V batteries, size AAA. Insert the batteries, taking care to match the polarity, as indi­cated in the battery compartment in the handset (Fig. 23). Change the batteries in the remote control if experiencing difficulty in sending commands to the projector. Remove batteries from the remote control if it is not to be used for a long period of time. The batteries are prone to leak and corrode the remote control’s circuits. The remote control sends commands to the projector via infrared signals.
Fig. 13
The projector can be controlled from a PC: simply hookup the interface connector to a PC’s RS232 serial cable or to a PC's USB 1.1 cable or with ethernet lan (RJ45) in according with standard ethernet 10/100 Mbit e TCP/IP. (Fig.13) The Ethernet RJ45 and USB control require an additional software powered by SIM2 Multimedia.
The projector is equipped with an infrared sensor on its front panel and can therefore be controlled by pointing the remote control towards the projection screen; the IR beam reflects off the screen towards the projector. There is another infrared sensor in the rear of projector.
Do not place objects between the remote control and the receiver on the projector, as this can prevent the remote from working.

STRUCTURE
BRIGHTNESS
Use this control to adjust the darker areas of the picture (black level), without significantly affecting bright areas. Increasing the value will give more detail in darker parts of the picture. For correct adjustment it may prove useful to display a grey scale with at least twenty bands. Now try to reduce the brightness of the black band as much as possible while ensuring that it can still be distinguished from the adjacent band with brightness slightly higher than black. Alternatively use a scene composed of black objects alongside other dark coloured objects and try to keep all the objects separately identifiable.
objects with lower level lighting, and try to ensure that all the objects remain separately identifiable.
COLOUR
This control (also called Saturation) increases or decreases the picture colour intensity. When set to zero, colour images will be shown in black and white. Increase the value until the colours appear natural: suitable references include skin tones and grass in landscape shots.
TINT
Controls the purity of colours. Basically determines the red-green ratio of the picture. Decreasing the value increases the red content of the image, increasing it increases the green. For this adjustment use skin tones or a test card image with colour bars as a reference.
SHARPNESS
This adjustment serves to modulate the signal to increase or decrease the level of picture detail. When the sharpness value is reduced the image details ap­pear less pronounced, while increasing the value raises image definition, making the outline of objects sharper. Note that an excessively high value may result in a ‘noisy’ picture and the edges of objects may appear unnaturally clearly defined.
SHARPNESS MODE
This allows you to select the type of processing associated with sharpness adjustment. For an interlaced or progressive video signal, set to

FILTER
This allows you to select the mode in which the input signal is processed. Selecting the most appropriate value for a given input signal ensures the best horizontal and vertical definition and makes the picture sharper.
CONTRAST
Use this control to adjust the image’s white level without affec­ting its dark areas. For correct adjustment it may prove useful to display a grey scale with at least twenty bands. Now try to increase the brightness of the white band as much as possible while ensuring that it can still be distinguished from the adjacent band with brightness slightly less than white.

CINEMA MODE
Use this option if the video signal source is a movie film (obtai­ned from a Teleciné device with 3:2 or 2:2 pull-down). In this case a deinterlace algorithm optimized for this type of signal is applied. Selecting AUTO mode causes the de-interlacer to analyse si­gnal characteristics and apply the correct deinterlace mode automatically.

serves to display a 4:3 letterbox image (with source signal having black bands above and below the picture) so that it fills the 16:9 screen and maintains the correct aspect ratio.
IMAGE
This menu features adjustments relating to picture position, aspect ratio, magnification etc.
ASPECT
This adjustment allows you to change the dimensions and aspect ratio (relationship between width and height) of the displayed image. There are five preset aspects available and three personalised aspects (with user-settable parameters). You can select a different aspect for each source: the selected aspect ratio will be automatically applied the next time the relative source is called. You can also select the required aspect ratio by repeatedly pressing the key , or by pressing and a numerical key (1...8).The following aspects are available:
PANORAMIC:
widens the 4:3 image and cuts off a strip from the top and bottom. Panoramic is ideal for displaying a 4:3 image on the 16:9 screen of the Display.
SUBTITLES:
PIXEL TO PIXEL
raises the image, thus making space for subtitles.
: runs a pixel to pixel mapping of any image, without adapting to the screen. The image is projected in the centre of the screen and if its horizontal and/or vertical dimensions are smaller than the display, it is bounded by vertical and/or horizontal black bands.
USER 1, 2, 3
: use this option if none of the others are satisfactory. The User formulas give you the ability to continuously adjust the picture size horizontally and vertically.
COLOR TEMPERATURE
Changes the colour balance of the image. The colour temperature setting is made by setting the white point in the CIE chromaticity diagram. The system enables you to set the white point in a grid of 36 points in the neutral colour zone (Fig. 17).
Moving it horizontally changes the correlated colour tempe­rature, with the low temperatures to the right (more red) and high temperatures to the left (more blue). The points on the lowest horizontal line (Fig.18) represent the colours on the black body curve.
There is 4 predefined colour temperature setting and another USER setting that allows the manual regulation.

The colour temperature is constant on the vertical lines, but is more or less different from the black body curve. This means that the higher points of the graph are more green. On the contrary, the lower points of the graphic yield a more purple image.
GAMMA CORRECTION
Determines the system’s response to the grey scale, empha­sising or attenuating the different grades of brightness (blacks, dark, medium, light grey, whites) in the projected image. The projector has a range of gamma functions which enable you to display any image to the best effect for the type of video source, the ambient lighting and your subjective pre­ferences.

The Enhanced set is suitable for watching movies. The Graphics set is suited to displaying synthetic graphics (PC, CAD, PC pre­sentations, etc.). User enables you to define your own curve. You can thus select the coefficient which determines the curve. Values from 1.5 to 2.2 allow you to emphasise the detail of dark images, but reduce overall contrast. Values higher than 2.2 increase overall contrast, but reduce the detail of dark areas. For the most common video sources, the overscanning value can be in the range (no overscanning) to 32 (maximum). The resulting image always maintains the selected aspect irrespec­tive of the selected overscan value. Whit USER curve the the user may select the exponent (gamma value) used for gamma compensation.Values between 1.5 to
2.2 enhance the details in the dark image content, resulting in a lower contrast perception.Values higher than 2.2 , occurs a fade away of details in the dark image content, resulting in a higher contrast perception.With the value equal to 2.2 (the standard value) , the image’s colours displayed are the most natural colours available with the common video sources.
POSITION
Use this adjustment to position the image vertically and horizon­tally. Determines the aspect ratio of the projected image. These parameters do not normally require adjustment because the system checks the input signal and automatically sets the most suitable values. However, if the image is not perfectly centralised it may prove useful to request the system to repeat the input signal analysis and image positioning, calling the au­tomatic control procedure with button A on the remote control or the
AUTO
button on the keypad. When this procedure is called it is helpful to have a while or light coloured background on the screen in the current picture.
OVERSCAN
Eliminates irregularities around the outer borders of the image. Some less accurate sources may produce an image with un­even borders; thanks to the overscan function these imperfec­tions can be moved to outside the displayed area. Il parameter to 2.2, typically yields pleasant, contrasty images.
Y/C DELAY
In the case of Video and S-Video signals, it may be necessary to correct horizontal colour misalignment within the projected image. For a given video standard (e.g. PAL or NTSC) the stored value does not normally require further fine-tuning, unless the source or connection cable has changed.
SETUP
The setup menu contains less frequently used adjustments that may be required during installation (e.g. On Screen Display language selection or the display of Test Patterns).
ORIENTATION
Reverse the image vertically and horizontally to best fit the installation: i.e. desktop front, ceiling front, desktop rear and ceiling rear (Fig.19).
Frequency/phase
These adjustments, available for progressive signals and for si­gnals from a PC, ensure correspondence between the number of pixels making up the signal and the number of pixels that make up the projected image. These parameters do not normally require adjustment because the system checks the input signal and automatically sets the most suitable values. If however the image is disturbed (loss of resolution between equidistant vertical bands or instability and lack of detail in thin vertical lines) it may help to ask the system to rerun the input signal analysis and set the best parameters by calling up the automatic adjustment function with A on the remote control or If the automatic procedure fails to have the required effect, enter the frequency and phase values manually and ap­proach the screen sufficiently to observe the effects of the adjustments.

KEYSTONE
To get the best image quality, we recommend installing the image on a surface which is perpendicular to the screen. 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.20). If this adjustment is insufficient to centre the image, tilt the projector and use the Vertical/horizontal keystone adjustment to compensate for the resulting distortion.

LAMP POWER
If your room is especially dark, the images from the system HT5000 could result execessively bright. In order to enjoy won­derful images, the ECOMODE function activation allows to re du ce the power used to feed the lamp. In this way, the brightness of the image will be adapted to your projection conditions and a grater life lamp will be guaranteed.

INPUTS LIST
In order to make the HT5000 system increasingly flexible, the functions described below make it possible to modify the inputs selection menu and adapt it so that it matches the require­ments of the user more closely. The main page displays all the inputs physically present on the projector. You can delete any inputs which are not in use. To do this, select the input in the pull down menu which appears when you press , and choose whether to activate or deactivate the input (Fig.23). The deactivation or activation of the source results in automatic renumbering of the remaining active inputs.
