Shutting down the projector
Troubleshooting your setup
By default, the projector automatically displays a blank screen after no
active source is detected for 30 minutes. This blank screen helps preserve
the life of the projector. The image returns when an active source is detected
or a remote or keypad button is pressed.
Screen Save
You can make the blank screen appear after a different time interval using
the Settings>System menu. See page 32. There are six time options, rang-
ing from five minutes to 30 minutes with five minute intervals.
Power S ave
The projector also has a Power Save feature that, when activated, automatically turns the lamp off after no signals are detected for 20 minutes. After 10
additional minutes with no signal, the projector powers down. If an active

Using the remote control
The remote uses two (2) provided AAA batteries. They are easily installed
by sliding the cover off the remote’s back, aligning the + and - ends of the
batteries, sliding them into place, and then replacing the cover.
To operate, point the remote at the projection screen or at the projector (not
at the computer). The range of optimum operation is about 30 feet (9.14m).
To use the laser pointer, press and hold the Laser button. The laser turns off
when the button is released, or times out after two (2) minutes of continuous operation.
WARNIN G: Do not look into the laser beam emitted from the top of the
remote control.
Previous and Next buttons allow you to navigate through your PowerPoint
presentation while in Slide Show mode. Connect the USB connector on the
computer cable to your computer to use these buttons. When you do this for
the first time, the Add New Hardware wizard may appear. See page 8 for
details on loading the correct USB drivers.
The effect button allows you to invoke a user-definable action, such as
freeze or blank the screen (see page 32 to learn to program this button).
Troubleshooting the remote
• Make sure the batteries are installed in the proper orientation and are
not dead. When battery power is adequate, the LED at the top of the
remote lights when any button is pressed.
• Make sure you’re pointing the remote at the projector, not the com-
puter, and are within the remote range of 30 feet (9.14m).
• If you are trying to advance PowerPoint slides, make sure the USB
cable is connected (page 6) and the correct drivers are installed
(page 8).
23
Using the audio
To play sound from the projector, connect your source to the Audio In connector on the projector.
To adjust the volume, use the buttons on the keypad.

After your computer is connected properly and the computer’s image is on
the screen, you can optimize the image using the onscreen menus. For general information on using the menus, see page 27.
• Adjust the Keystone, Contrast, or Brightness in the Picture menu.
• Change the Aspect Ratio. Aspect Ratio is the ratio of the image width to
image height. TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV
and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9. Choose the option that best fits your
input source. See page 28 for details.
• Adjust the Color Space, Color Temperature, or Color Control in the
Advanced menu.
• Adjust the Phase, Tracking, or Horizontal or Vertical position in the
Advanced menu.

save the settings using Presets. This allows you to quickly recall these
settings later. See page 29.
Several features are provided to make it easier to give presentations. The
following is an overview, details are found in the menu section on page 27.
•The remote’s Effect button allows you to assign various features to the
key. The default effect is About, which displays information about the
projector and current source. You can select from Blank, Mute, Aspect
Ratio, Source, Auto Image, Freeze, Zoom, and About. See page 32 for
details.
• The Freeze effect allows you to freeze the displayed image. This is useful if you want to make changes on your computer without your audience seeing them.
• The Startup Logo and Blank Screen menu options let you change the
default startup screen to a black, white, or blue screen. See page 32.
• Two menu options, Power Save and Screen Save, are provided to automatically shut down the projector after several minutes of inactivity or
display a black screen. This helps preserve lamp life. See page 31 and
page 32.
• A Lamp Mode option is also available to let you optimize lamp brightness or lamp life. See page 31.
25
