Important safety instructions

Your projector is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of information technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product, it is important that you follow the instructions mentioned in this manual and marked on the product.

Safety Instructions

1. Please read this manual before you operate your projector. Save it for future reference.

2. Do not look straight at the projector lens during operation. The intense light beam may damage your eyes.

3. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

4. Always open the lens shutter or remove the lens cap when the projector light

source is on.

5. In some countries, the line voltage is NOT stable. This projector is designed to operate safely within a mains voltage between 100 to 240 volts AC, but could fail if power cuts or surges of ±10 volts occur. In areas where the mains voltage may fluctuate

or cut out, it is recommended that you connect your projector through a power stabilizer, surge protector or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

6. Do not block the projection lens with any objects when the projector is under operation as this could cause the objects to become heated and deformed or even cause a fire. To temporarily turn off the light source, press BLANK on the projector or remote control.

7. Do not operate light sources beyond the rated light source life. Excessive operation of light sources beyond the rated life could cause them to break on rare occasions.

8. Never replace the light source assembly or any electronic components unless the projector is unplugged.

9. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, sustaining serious damage.

10. Do not attempt to disassemble this projector. There are dangerous high voltages inside which may cause death if you should come into contact with live parts. The only user serviceable part is the light source which has its own removable cover.

Under no circumstances should you ever undo or remove any other covers. Refer servicing only to suitably qualified professional service personnel.

11. Do not place this projector in any of the following environments.

- Space that is poorly ventilated or confined. Allow at least 50 cm clearance from walls and free flow of air around the projector.

- Locations where temperatures may become excessively high, such as the inside of a car with all windows rolled up.

- Locations where excessive humidity, dust, or cigarette smoke may contaminate optical components, shortening the projector's life span and darkening the picture.

- Locations near fire alarms

- Locations with an ambient temperature above 40°C / 104°F

- Locations where the altitudes are higher than 3000 m (10000 feet).

12. Do not block the ventilation holes. If the ventilation holes are seriously obstructed, overheating inside the projector may result in a fire.

- Do not place this projector on a blanket, bedding or any other soft surface.

- Do not cover this projector with a cloth or any other item.

- Do not place inflammables near the projector.

13. Always place the projector on a level, horizontal surface during operation.

17. This product is capable of displaying inverted pictures for ceiling mount installation.

Use only qualified ceiling mount kit for mounting the projector and ensure it is securely installed.

18. When the projector is under operation, you may sense some heated air and odor from its ventilation grill. It is a normal phenomenon and not a product defect.

19. Do not use the Security bar for transporting or installation. It should be used with a commercially available theft prevention cable.

20. CAUTION Possibly hazardous optical radiation emitted from this product. Do not stare at operating light source. May be harmful to the eyes. Risk Group 2

Warni ng

• THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED.

• When installing the unit, incorporate a readily accessible disconnect device in the fixed

wiring, or connect the power plug to an easily accessible socket-outlet near the unit. If a fault should occur during operation of the unit, operate the disconnect device to switch the power supply off, or disconnect the power plug.

Safety instructions for ceiling mounting of the projector

We want you to have a pleasant experience using your projector, so we need to bring this safety matter to your attention to prevent damage to person and property.

If you intend to mount your projector on the ceiling, we strongly recommend that you use a proper fitting projector ceiling mount kit and that you ensure it is securely and safely installed.

If you use an inappropriate projector ceiling mount kit, there is a safety risk that the projector may fall from the ceiling due to an improper attachment through the use of the wrong gauge or length screws.

You can purchase a projector ceiling mount kit from the place you purchased your projector. We recommend that you also purchase a separate security cable and attach it securely to both the anti-theft lock slot on the projector and the base of the ceiling mount bracket. This will perform the secondary role of restraining the projector should its attachment to the mounting bracket become loose.

Connecting a computer or monitor

Connecting a computer

1. Take the supplied VGA cable and connect one end to the D-Sub output socket of the computer.

2. Connect the other end of the VGA cable to the COMPUTER 1 or COMPUTER 2 signal input socket on the projector.

Many notebooks do not turn on their external video ports when connected to a projector. Usually a key combo like FN + F3 or CRT/LCD key turns the external display on/off. Locate a function key labeled CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol on the notebook. Press FN and the labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your notebook's documentation to find your notebook's key combination.

Connecting a monitor

If you want to view your presentation close-up on a monitor as well as on the screen, you can connect the COMPUTER OUT signal output socket on the projector to an external monitor with a VGA cable following the instructions below:

1. Connect the projector to a computer as described in "Connecting a computer" on page

14.

2. Take a suitable VGA cable (only one supplied) and connect one end of the cable to the D-Sub input socket of the video monitor. Or if your monitor is equipped with a DVI input socket, take a VGA to DVI-A cable and connect the DVI end of the cable to the DVI input socket of the video monitor.

3. Connect the other end of the cable to the COMPUTER OUT socket on the projector.

The COMPUTER OUT output only works when COMPUTER 1 connection is made to the projector in the standby mode. To use this connection method, turn on the Active VGA Out function under the SYSTEM SETUP: Advanced > Standby Settings menu.

Connecting Video source devices

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

• HDMI

• 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 HDMI. If your source device is equipped with an HDMI socket, you can enjoy uncompressed digital video quality.

See "Connecting an HDMI device" on page 15 for how to connect the projector to an HDMI source device and other details.

If no HDMI source is available, the next best video signal 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.

See "Connecting a Component Video source device" on page 16 for how to connect the projector to a component video device.

Better video quality

The S-Video 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.

See "Connecting an S-Video source device" on page 16 for how to connect the projector to an S-Video device.

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.

See "Connecting a composite Video source device" on page 16 for how to connect the projector to a composite Video device.

Connecting audio

You can make use of the projector speaker in your presentations, and also connect separate amplified speakers to the Audio Out socket of the projector. The audio output is controlled by the projector Volume and Mute settings.

Connecting an HDMI device

You should use an HDMI cable when making connection between the projector and HDMI devices.

1. Take an HDMI cable and connect one end to the HDMI output port of the video device.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the HDMI input port on the projector.

In the unlikely event that you connect the projector to a DVD player via the projector’s HDMI

VGA-Component adapter (ViewSonic P/N: CB-00008906)

input and the projected picture displays wrong colors, please change the color space to YUV. See "Changing HDMI input settings" on page 22 for details.

Connecting a Component Video source device

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.

1. Take a VGA (D-Sub)-Component 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 VGA (D-Sub)-Component adaptor cable (with a D-Sub type connector) to the COMPUTER 1 or COMPUTER 2 socket on the projector.

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 Video source device is turned on and operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.

Connecting an S-Video source device

Examine your Video source device to determine if it has an unused S-Video output socket 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.

1. Take an S-Video cable and connect one end to the S-Video output socket of the Video source device.

2. Connect the other end of the S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO socket on the projector.

If you have already made a Component Video connection between the projector and this SVideo source device using Component Video connections, you need not connect to this device using an S-Video connection as this makes an unnecessary second connection of poorer picture quality. See "Connecting Video source devices" on page 15 for details.

Connecting a composite Video source device

Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused composite 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.

1. Take a Video cable and connect one end to the composite Video output socket of the Video source device.

2. Connect the other end of the Video cable to the VIDEO socket on the projector.

You need only connect to this device using a composite Video connection if Component Video input is unavailable for use. See "Connecting Video source devices" on page 15 for details.

Playing sound through the projector

You can make use of the projector speaker in your presentations, and also connect separate amplified speakers to the AUDIO OUT socket of the projector.
