• Never throw a battery into a fire. There may be danger of an explosion.

• If the battery is dead or if you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove

the battery to prevent damage to the remote control from possible battery leakage.

ViewSonic 6 PJ513D/PJ513DB

Positioning your projector

Choosing a location

Your projector is designed to be installed in one of four possible installation locations:

1. Table in front of screen;

2. Ceiling in front of screen;

3. Table at rear of screen;

4. Ceiling at rear of screen.

1. Front Table

Select this location with the projector placed near the floor in front of the screen. This is the most common way to position the projector for quick setup and portability.

2. Front Ceiling

Select this location with the projector suspended upside-down from the ceiling in front of the screen.

Purchase a recommended Projector Ceiling Mounting Kit from your dealer to mount your projector on the ceiling.

Set Front Ceiling in the System Setup: Basic > Projector Position menu after you turn the projector on.

3. Rear Table

Select this location with the projector placed near the floor behind the screen.

Note that a special rear projection screen is required.

Set Rear Table in the System Setup: Basic >

Projector Position menu after you turn the projector on.

4. Rear Ceiling

Select this location with the projector suspended upside-down from the ceiling behind the screen.

Note that a special rear projection screen and a qualified ceiling mount kit are required for this installation location.

Set Rear Ceiling in the System Setup: Basic > Projector Position menu after you turn the projector on.

Your room layout or personal preference will dictate which installation location you select. Take into consideration the size and position of your screen, the location of a suitable power outlet, as well as the location and distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment.

ViewSonic 7 PJ513D/PJ513DB

Obtaining a preferred projected image size

The distance from the projector lens to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format each factors in the projected image size.

4:3 is the native aspect ratio of this projector. To be able to project a complete 16:9 (widescreen) aspect ratio image, the projector can resize and scale a widescreen image to the projector's native aspect width. This will result in a proportionally smaller height equivalent to 75% of the projector's native aspect height.

4:3 aspect image in a 4:3 aspect display area

Thus, a 16:9 aspect image will not utilize 25% of the height of a 4:3 aspect image displayed by this projector. This will b e seen as darkened (unlit) bars along the top and bottom (vertical 12.5% height respectively) of the 4:3 projection display area whenever displaying a scaled 16:9 aspect image in the vertical center of the 4:3 projection display area.

When determining the position of your projector, you should consider its intended use and input signal aspect ratios. All inputs (other than composite Video being fed a 16:9 aspect signal) will display in a 4:3 aspect ratio (and will require an additional 33% display height than that of the scaled 16:9 aspect image projection area).

IMPORTANT: Do not select a permanent projector position based upon a 16:9 projection if you will ever need to select an input (other than composite Video being fed a 16:9 aspect signal) .

The projector should always be placed horizontally level (like flat on a table), and positioned directly perpendicular (90° right-angle square) to the horizontal center of the screen. This prevents image distortion caused by angled projections (or projecting onto angled surfaces).

The modern digital projector does not project directly forward (like older style reel-toreel film projectors did). Instead, digital projectors are designed to project at a slightly upward angle above the horizontal plane of the projector. This is so that they can be readily placed on a table and will project forward and upwards onto a screen positioned so that the bottom edge of the screen is above the level of the table (and everyone in the room can see the screen).

If the projector is mounted on a ceiling, it must be mounted upside-down so that it projects at a slightly downward angle.

You can see from the diagram on page 10, that this type of projection causes the bottom edge of the projected image to be vertically offset from the horizontal plane of the projector . When ceiling mounted, this refers to the top edge of the projected image.

If the projector is positioned further away from the screen, the projected image size increases, and the vertical offset also increases proportionately.

When determining the position of the screen and projector, you will need to account for both the projected image size and the vertical offset dimension, which are directly proportional to the projection distance.

We have provided a table of 4:3-aspect-ratio screen sizes to assist you in determining the ideal location for your projector. There are two dimensions to consider, the perpendicular horizontal distance from the center of the screen (projection distance),

ViewSonic 8 PJ513D/PJ513DB

16:9 aspect image scaled to a 4:3 aspect

display area

and the vertical offset height of the projector from the horizontal edge of the screen (offset).

How to determine the position of the projector for a given screen size

1. Select your screen size.

2. Refer to the table and find the closest match to your screen size in the left columns labelled "4:3 Screen Diagonal". Using this value, look across this row to the right to find the corresponding average distance from screen value in the column labelled

"Average". This is the projection distance.

3. On that same row, look across to the right column and make note of the vertical Offset value. This will determine the final vertical offset placement of the projector in relation to the edge of the screen.

4. The recommended position for the projector is aligned perpendicular to the horizontal center of the screen, at the distance from the screen determined in step 2 above, and offset by the value determined in step 3 above.

For example, if you are using a 120 inch screen, the average projection distance is 4667 mm and with a vertical offset of 183 mm.

If you place the projector in a different position (to that recommended), you will have to tilt it down or up to center the image on the screen. In these situations, some image distortion will occur. Use the Keystone function to correct the distortion.

How to determine the recommended screen size for a given distance

This method can be used for situations where you have purchased this projector and would like to know what screen size will fit in your room.

The maximum screen size is limited by the physical space available in your room.

1. Measure the distance between the projector and where you want to position the screen. This is the projection distance.

2. Refer to the table and find the closest match to your measurement in the average distance from screen column labelled "Average". Check that your measured distance is between the min and max distances listed on either side of the average distance value.

3. Using this value, look across that row to the left to find the corresponding screen diagonal listed in that row. That is the projected image size of the projector at that projection distance.

4. On that same row, look across to the right column and make note of the vertical Offset value. This will determine the final placement of the screen in relation to the horizontal plane of the projector .

For example, if your measured projection distance was 4.5 m (4500 mm), the closest match in the Average column is 4593 mm. Looking across this row shows that a 3000 mm (3 m) screen is required. If you can only obtain imperial sized screens, the listed screen sizes on either side of the 3 m screen are the 9' and 10' screens.

Checking the min and max projection distance values for these screen sizes, indicates that the 4.5 m measured projection distance will need to be reduced to fit the 9' size screen, or increased to fit the 10' size screen. The projector can be adjusted (using the zoom control) to display on these different screen sizes at those projection distances. Be aware that these different screens have different vertical offset values.

There is 3% tolerance among these numbers due to optical component variations. It is recommended that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should physically test the projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before y ou perm anently install it, so as to make allowance for this projector's optica l characteri stics. This will help you determine the exact mounting position so that it best suits your installa tion location.

ViewSonic 12 PJ513D/PJ513DB

Connecting Video source devices

You can connect your projector to various Video source devices that provide any one of the following output sockets:

• Component Video

•S-Video

• Video (composite)

You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the above connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality. The method you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching terminals on both the projector and the Video source device as described below:

Best video quality

The best available video connection method is Component Video (not to be confused with composite Video). Digital TV tuner and DVD players output Component Video natively, so if available on your devices, this should be your connection method of choice in preference to (composite) Video.

Better video quality

The S-Vi deo method provides a better quality analog video than standard composite Video. If you have both composite Video and S-Video output terminals on your Video source device, you should elect to use the S-Video option.

Least video quality

Composite Video is an analog video and will result in a perfectly acceptable, but less than optimal result from your projector, being the least video quality of the available methods described here.

Connecting Audio

The projector has a built-in mono speaker which is designed to provide basic audio functionality accompanying data presentations for business purposes only. It is not designed for, nor intended for stereo audio reproduction use as might be expected in home theatre or home cinema applications. Any stereo audio input (if provided), is mixed into a common mono audio output through the projector speaker.

If you have a separate sound system, you will most likely want to connect the audio output of your Video source device to that sound system, instead of to the mono audio projector. The audio connections illustrated in the following sections are provided for informational purposes only. You need not connect audio to the projector if there is an alternate sound system available, or if audio is not required.

Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor cable

Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused Component Video output sockets available:

• If so, you can continue with this procedure.

• If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the device.

To connect the projector to a Component Video source device:

1. Take a Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor cable and connect the end with 3 RCA type connectors to the Component Video output sockets of the Video source device. Match the color of the plugs to the color of the sockets; green to green, blue to blue; and red to red.

2. Connect the other end of the Component V ideo to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor cable (with a D-Sub type connector) to the D-SUB/COMP IN socket on the projector.

3. If you wish to make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker, take a suitable audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output socket of the computer , and the other end to the Audio socket of the projector.

The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:

If you connect the projector to a High Definition TV (HDTV) tuner, the following standards are supported:

•480i •480p

•576i •576p

• 720p (50/ 60 Hz) • 1080i (50/ 60 Hz)

• The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input

is connected. See "Connecting Audio" on page 13 for details.

• Component Video is the only video output that delivers native 16:9 aspect ratio picture.

• If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the

correct video source has been selected, check that the Vi deo s ource devi ce is turned on and operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.

Selecting the aspect ratio

The 'aspect ratio' is the ratio of the image width to the image height. Most analog TV and computers are in 4:3 ratio, which is the default for this projector, and digital TV and DVDs are usually in 16:9 ratio.

With the advent of digital signal processing, digital display devices like this projector can dynamically stretch and scale the image output to a different aspect than that of the image input source.

You can change the projected image ratio (no matter what aspect the source is) by entering DISPLAY > Aspect Ratio. Select an aspect ratio to suit the format of the video signal and your display requirements. There are four aspect ratios available:

In the pictures below, the black portions are inactive areas and the white portions are acti ve areas.

1. Auto: Scales an image to fit the projector’s native resolution(4:3). This is suitable when you want to make most use of the screen

2. Native: The image is projected as its original resolution, and resized to fit within the display area proportionally. For input signals with lower resolutions, the projected image will display smaller than if resized to full screen. You could adjust the zoom setting or move the projector towards the screen to fit for the image size if necessary. You may also need to refocus the projector after making these adjustments.

3. 4:3: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of the screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio. This is most suitable for 4:3 images like computer monitors, standard definition TV and 4:3 aspect DVD movies, as it displays them without aspect alteration.

4. 16:9: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of the screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio. This is most suitable for images which are already in a 16:9 aspect, like high definition TV, as it displays them without aspect alteration.

16:9 aspect ratio is only sourced through the Component Video input when being fed an appropriate 16:9 aspect signal. See "Connecting a Component Video source device" on page

14 and "Obtaining a preferred projected image size" on page 8 for details.

Maintenance

Care of the projector

Your projector needs little maintenance. The only thing you need to do on a regular basis is to keep the lens clean.

Never remove any parts of the projector except the lamp. Contact your dealer if other parts need replacing.

Cleaning the lens

Clean the lens whenever you notice dirt or dust on the surface.

• Use a canister of compressed air to remove dust.

• If there is dirt or smears, use lens-cleaning paper or moisten a soft cloth with lens cleaner and gently wipe the lens surface.

Never rub the lens with abrasive materials.

Cleaning the projector case

Before you clean the case, turn the projector off using the proper shutdown procedure as described in "Shutting down the projector" on page 28 and unplug the power cord.

• To remove dirt or dust, wipe the case with a soft, lint-free cloth.

• To remove stubborn dirt or stains, moisten a soft cloth with water and a neutral pH detergent. Then wipe the case.

Never use wax, alcohol, benzene, thinner or other chemical detergents. These can damage the case.

Storing the projector

If you need to store the projector for an extended time, please follow the instructions below:

• Make sure the temperature and humidity of the storage area are within the recommended range for the projector. Please refer to "Specifications" on page 45 or consult your dealer about the range.

• Retract the adjuster feet.

• Remove the batteries from the remote control.

• Pack the projector in its original packing or equivalent.

Transporting the projector

It is recommended that you ship the projector with its original packing or equivalent.

ViewSonic 37 PJ513D/PJ513DB

Lamp information

Getting to know the lamp hour

When the projector is in operation, the duration (in hours) of lamp usage is automatically calculated by the built-in timer . The method of calculating the equivalent lamp hour is as follows:

Total (equivalent) lamp hour = 1 (hours used in Economic mode) + 3/2 (hours used in normal mode)

See "Setting Lamp Mode as Economic" below for more information on Economic mode.

The lamp hour in Economic mode is calculated as 2/3 of that in normal mode. That is, using the projector in Economic mode helps to extend the lamp hour by 1/2.

Extending lamp life

The projection lamp is a consumable item that normally can last up to 2000-3000 hours with proper usage. To keep the lamp life as long as possible, you can do the following settings via the OSD menu.

• Setting Lamp Mode as Economic

Using Economic mode reduces system noise and power consumption by 20%. If the Economic mode is selected, the light output will be reduced and result in darker

projected pictures. Setting the projector in Economic mode also extends the lamp operation life. To set

Economic mode, go into the SYSTEM SETUP: Advanced > Lamp Settings > Lamp Mode menu and press / .

When the DCR function is set to On, the lamp mode cannot be adjusted.

• Setting Auto Power Off

This function allows the projector to turn off automatically if no input source is detected after a set period of time to prevent unnecessary waste of lamp life.

To set Auto Power Off, go into the SYSTEM SETUP: Basic > Auto Power Off menu and press / . The time period can be set from 5 to 30 minutes in 5-minute increments. If the preset time lengths are not suitable for your presentation, select Disable. The projector will not automatically shut down in a certain time period.
