Key safety instructions

Design and testing of your projector have been carried out in compliance with the latest safety standards for information technology (IT) devices. However, it is extremely important for you to follow the instructions provided in this manual and product labels during use to ensure user safety.
Safety Instructions
● Please read through this manual before using the projector. Save it for future
reference.
Do not look straight at the projector lens during operation. The intense light
beam may damage your eyes.
Refer servicing to qualied service personnel.
● Always open the lens shutter or remove the lens cap when the projector light source has been switched on.
● In some areas there may be line voltage instability. 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
uctuate or cut out, it is recommended that you connect your projector through a power stabilizer, surge protector or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
● 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 re.
● Do not place the projector on an unstable cart, stand, or cable. The product may fall and sustain serious damages.
● Do not attempt to disassemble this projector. The projector contains high voltage parts that may cause electrocution or death when it comes in contact with the human body. Under no circumstances should you ever undo or remove any other covers.
Refer servicing to qualied service personnel.
● Do not place this projector in any of the following environments.
- Space that is poorly ventilated or conned. Allow at least 50 cm clearance from
walls and ensure free ow 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 that are too humid, dusty, or smoky may contaminate optical components, shortening the projector's life span and darkening the image.
- Locations near re alarms
- Locations where temperature exceed 35°C/95°F.
- Locations with altitudes greater than 5000 m (16500 feet).
1
● Do not block the ventilation holes. If the ventilation holes are seriously obstructed,
overheating inside the projector may result in a re.
- 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 inammables near the projector.
● Do not step on the projector or place any objects upon it. These acts may damage the projector itself as well as cause accidents or personal injury.
● Do not place liquids near or on the projector. Liquids spilled into the projector may cause damage. If the projector does become wet, please unplug the power cable from the power socket and contact your local repair center for repairs.
● This product can be mounted on a ceiling suspension mount for back projection.
Use only ceiling suspension mounts that meet the relevant requirements and ensure that
the installation is safe.
● 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.
● Do not use the safety lever during transport or installation purposes. The safety lever should only be used with the anti-theft cables sold on the market.
Safety instructions for ceiling mounting of the projector
We hope you to have a pleasant user experience with our projector. This is why we’re bringing these safety reminders to your attention to prevent possible damage to person and property.
If you intend to mount your projector on the ceiling, we strongly recommend that you use a suitable projector ceiling mount kit and ensure it is securely and safely installed.
There may be safety risks if you fail to use an appropriate projector ceiling mounting kit.
Use of inappropriate connectors or screws of the wrong specications or length may cause
the projector to fall from the ceiling. You can purchase a projector ceiling mounting kit from the projector dealer. We
recommend buying a safety harness in addition to the mounting kit. The harness should be securely connected to the anti-theft locking groove on the projector as well as the base of the ceiling mounting support. This will provide additional protection in case the connectors of the mounting support becoming loose.
Like handling any bright light sources, do not directly look at the
light beam.

Connecting to Video source devices

You can connect the projector to any of the following video source device with an output jack:
HDMI (PA501S does not have this interface)
Component Video
S-Video
Video (composite video)
Only 1 of the aforementioned connection methods is required to connect the projector to the video source device. However, different connection methods would provide a different video quality. The connection method selected would be determined by the presence of matching jacks on the projector and Video source device:
Best video quality
HDMI is the best video connection method available. If the source device comes with HDMI jacks, you will be able to acquire uncompressed digital video quality.
Please refer to “Connecting to HDMI devices” for details on how to connect the projector to HDMI devices.
If you don’t have any usable HDMI source, the next best video signal would be Component Video (not to be confused with Composite Video). Digital TV tuners and DVD players are provided with Component Video output sockets. If your device includes Component Video, then this would be your primary choice of connection to the (composite) video.
Please refer to “To connect the projector to a Component Video source device:” for details on how to connect your projector to Component Video devices.
Better video quality
S-video method provides slightly better simulation video compared to standard composite videos.If the video device is provided with both composite video and s-video output jacks,
you should try to choose S-video connection rst.
Please refer to “Connect to S-video signal source device” for details on how to connect your projector to S-video devices.
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.
Please refer to “Connecting to composite video source devices” for details on how to connect your projector to composite video devices.
Connecting audio
You can use the speaker of the projector in the presentation or connect other individual speaker to the audio output jack of the projector. Audio output is controlled by the volume and mute setup of the projector.

Connecting to HDMI devices

Use an HDMI cable to establish a connection between the projector and HDMI device.
1. Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI output jack on the video device.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the HDMI signal input jack on the projector.
In the unlikely event that the projector is connected to a DVD player via the projector’s HDMI input and the projected picture displays wrong colors, please change the color space to YUV. See “Changing HDMI input settings” for details.

To connect the projector to a Component Video source device:

Examine your Video source device to determine if a set of unused Component Video output sockets is available:
If so, you can continue with this procedure.
If not, you will need to reassess which method to use to connect to the device.
1. Take a VGA (D-Sub) Component adapter 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 end of the VGA (D-Sub) Component adapter cable (with the D-Sub type connector) to the COMPUTER 1 or COMPUTER 2 jack 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. You must also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.

Connect to S-video signal source device

Examine your Video source device to determine if an unused S-Video output socket is available:
If so, you can continue with this procedure.
If not, you will need to reassess which method to 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 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. You must also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
If you have already made a Component Video connection between the projector and this S-Video source device using Component Video connections, an S-Video connection will not be required as this is an unnecessary second connection of poorer picture quality. For more details, please refer to “Connecting to Video source devices”.

Connecting to composite video source devices

Examine your Video source device to determine if an unused composite output jack is available:
If so, you can continue with this procedure.
If not, you will need to reassess which method to 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.
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. You must also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
When the component video is not available, use the composite video connection method to connect to this device. See “Connecting to Video source devices” for details.
