INTRODUCTION
The Toshiba TDP-P3 is specifically designed for the mobile presenter. It packs XGA 1024x768 graphics with 16.7 million colors
into a small, 4.8 pound package. It generates crisp, clear images
using Digital Light Processing™ (DLP) technology, and features
an M1-DA connector for easy, built-in digital/analog and USB
connectivity. The TDP-P3 is easy to connect, easy to use, easy to
transport, and easy to maintain.
Image Resolution
The XGA resolution of the TDP-P3’s projected image is 1024x768.
The projector cannot compress screen resolutions above
1024x768. If your computer’s screen resolution is higher than
1024x768, reset it to a lower resolution before you connect the
projector
.

can cause it to overheat and turn off. If this happens, you must
wait a minute before attempting to turn it back on.
•
Handle the projector as you would any product with glass
components. Be especially careful not to drop it.
•
Avoid leaving the projector in direct sunlight or extreme cold
for extended periods of time. If this happens, allow it to reach
room temperature before use.
•
Transport the projector in a vendor-approved hard or soft case;
refer to your Toshiba dealer or
information.

The projector is compatible with these major broadcast video
standards: NTSC, NTSC 4.43, PAL, PAL-M, PAL-N, PAL-60, and
SECAM. It automatically adjusts to optimize its performance for
the incoming video. The input signal for SECAM video is similar
to other video signals and cannot be automatically detected,
therefore SECAM must be chosen manually. See “Video Standard” on page 24 for details.

USING THE PROJECTOR
This section describes how to use and make adjustments to the
projector. It also provides a reference to the keypad and remote
buttons and the options available from the on-screen menus.
Basic Image Adjustment
Make sure you have powered up your equipment in the right
1
order (page 11).
If the image doesn’t display completely, zoom the image
2
(page 15), adjust the height of the projector (page 15) or center
the image by adjusting its horizontal or vertical position
(page 23). Be sure the projector is at a 90 degree angle to the
screen.
If the image is out of focus, rotate the focus lens (page 15).
3
If the image appears to shimmer or if it has blurry vertical
4
bars after you have adjusted the focus, turn Auto Image
(page 21) off and then back on to reset the automatic sync and
tracking. If that doesn’t clear up the image, turn Auto Image
off and adjust the sync (page 22) and/or the tracking
(page 22) manually.
If the colors don’t look right, adjust the brightness (page 19).
5
Using the Remote Control
The projector ships with a remote that has four function buttons,
a disk mouse and two mouse buttons, one on the top of the
remote and one on the bottom.
Point the remote control at the projection screen or at the front of
the projector. The range for optimum operation is about 25 feet. If
you point the remote at the projection screen, the distance to the
screen and back to the projector must be less than or equal to 25
feet. For best results, point the remote directly at the projector.
NOTE: To control the computer’s
mouse from the projector’s remote
or keypad, you must connect the
mouse connector on the computer
cable to the computer. See page 8
for details.

Controls Menu
FIGURE 17
Controls menu
NOTE: If you already know the
video standard used in your
geographical area, it’s often best to
manually select it.
Video Standard
When Video standard is set to Auto, the projector attempts to
pick the video standard (NTSC, NTSC 4.43, PAL, PAL-M, PAL-N,
PAL-60, or SECAM) automatically based on the input signal it
receives. (The video standard options may vary depending on
your region of the world.) The input signal for SECAM video is
similar to other video signals and cannot be automatically
detected, therefore SECAM must be chosen manually. If the projector is unable to detect the correct standard, the colors might
not look right or the image might appear “torn.” If this happens,
manually select a standard by clicking the left or right navigation
button and cycling through the standards.
Standby Time
This option lets you select how long the lamp stays on and the
blank screen is displayed when the projector enters standby
mode before the projector turns off. Select among instant, 1, 5, 10,
15 and 30 minutes and 1 and 2 hours by clicking the left or right
navigation button and cycling through the options.
24
Rear Projection
When you turn
Rear Projection
on, the projector reverses the
image so you can project from behind a translucent screen. Highlight Rear Projection, then click the left or right navigation button
to turn this feature on and off.
Default Source
Default Source toggles among Computer analog, Computer digital, and Video. This determines which source the projector checks
first for active video during power-up. Highlight Default Source
and click the left or right navigation button to toggle among the
options.
Auto Source Select
This setting toggles between On and Off. When this feature is Off,
the projector defaults to the source selected in Default Source. To
display another source, you must manually select one by pressing the
source
button on the keypad or the
computer
or
video
button on the remote. When this feature is On, the projector
automatically finds the active source, checking the default source
first. Highlight Auto Source Select and click the left or right navigation button to turn this feature on and off.
Plug and Play
This setting toggles between On and Off. When it is On, most
new computers will automatically recognize the projector, then
set the monitor resolution and refresh rate accordingly. You need
to set the Plug and Play setting to Off for the projector to display
properly on some older computers. The Plug and Play setting
does not affect video images.
If the projector’s display constantly changes between the computer image and the message, “Perfecting the image”, you may
need to turn Plug and Play Off.
Display Messages
This setting toggles between On and Off. When this feature is On,
status messages such as “No signal detected” or “Standby
Active” appear in the lower-right corner of the screen. Click the
left or right navigation button to turn this feature off and not see
status messages.
Display Startup Screen
This setting toggles between On and Off. When this feature is On,
the startup screen appears when the projector starts up and
remains until an active source is detected. Click the left or right
navigation button to turn this feature off and display a plain
black or blue screen instead of the startup screen.

Using Video Mirroring with a PowerBook Computer
When you turn video mirroring (called SimulScan in newer PowerBooks—see below) on, the projector displays the same information that appears on your PowerBook’s built-in screen. When
video mirroring is off, the projector acts like a separate display.
To turn on video mirroring for the first time:
Open the Monitors control panel; click on Monitor 2.
1
Set the number of colors you want.
2
Open the Control Strip, then click on the monitor icon.
3
Select “Turn Video Mirroring On.”
4
Now you can turn video mirroring on and off from the Control
Strip without having to open the Monitors control panel again.
When using video mirroring and high color graphics such as
slide shows, the projected image occasionally might turn black
and white. If this happens, perform the following steps:
Turn off video mirroring.
1
Open the Monitors control panel.
2
Move the white menu bar to Monitor 2 to set the projector as
3
the primary monitor.
Restart the PowerBook.
4
Using SimulScan
Some newer PowerBooks display images on an external monitor
or projector differently than previous ones. When using
SimulScan, the projector displays the same information that
appears on your PowerBook
To select SimulScan:
Open the Control Panel, then double-click Monitors and
1
Sound.
In the Resolution list, choose the SimulScan mode, then click
2
OK.
If this changes your display settings, a dialog box appears.
3
Click OK to confirm the change.
