commercially available theft prevention cable.
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.

Remote control code
Approx. 30°
Approx. 30°
The projector can be assigned to 8 different remote control
codes, 1 to 8. When several adjacent projectors are in
operation at the same time, switching the remote control codes
can prevent interference from other remote controls. Set the
remote control code for the projector first before changing that
for the remote control.
To switch the code for the projector, select from among 1 to 8
in the SYSTEM SETTING > Remote Control Code menu.
To switch the code for the remote control,
press ID set and the number button
corresponding to the remote control code
set in the projector OSD together for 5
seconds or more. The initial code is set to
1. When the code is switched to 8, the
remote control can control every
projector.
If different codes are set on the projector and remote control, there will be no response from
the remote control. When that happens, a message will display to remind you to switch the
code for the remote control.
Using the remote PgUp/PgDn function
The capability of operating your computer with the remote control gives you more
flexibility when delivering presentations.
1.Set the input signal to a PC signal.
2.Connect the projector to your PC or notebook with a USB cable prior to using the
remote control in place of your computer’s mouse. See "Connecting a computer or a
monitor" on page 20 for details.
3.To operate your display software program (on a connected PC) which responds to
page up/down commands (like Microsoft PowerPoint), press PgUp/PgDn.
Remote control effective range
The Infra-Red (IR) remote control is located on the
front and top of the projector. The remote control must
be held at an angle within 30 degrees perpendicular to
the projector's IR remote control sensor to function
correctly. The distance between the remote control and
the sensor should not exceed 8 meters (~ 26 feet).
Make sure that there are no obstacles between the
remote control and the IR sensor on the projector that
might obstruct the infra-red beam.

Positioning your projector
Choosing a location
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.
Your projector is designed to be installed in one of the following 4 possible installation
locations:
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 the projector ceiling mount kit from your
dealer to mount your projector on the ceiling.
Set Front Ceiling in the SYSTEM > Projector
Position menu after you turn the projector on.
3.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 the
projector ceiling mounting kit are required for this
installation location.
Set Rear Ceiling in the SYSTEM > Projector
Position menu after you turn the projector on.
4.Rear Table
Select this location with the projector placed near
the floor behind the screen.

The "screen" mentioned below refers to the projection screen usually consisting of a screen
surface and a support structure.
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 you permanently
install it, so as to make allowance for this projector's optical characteristics. This will help you
determine the exact mounting position so that it best suits your installation location.

Connecting a computer or a 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 IN 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 MONITOR 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
20.
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 MONITOR OUT socket on the projector.
The MONITOR OUT output only works when COMPUTER IN connection is made to the
projector.
To use this connection method when the projector is in standby mode, turn on the Active VGA
Out function under the SOURCE > 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
• 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 21for 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
20
Page 26
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 22 for how to connect the
projector to a component 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 23for how to connect the
projector to a composite Video device.
Connecting audio
The projector has built-in stereo speaker(s) 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 theater or
home cinema applications.
If you wish, 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 a stereo signal and controlled by the projector Volume and Mute settings.
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 stereo audio projector.
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
input and the projected picture displays wrong colors, please change the color space to YUV.
See "Changing HDMI input settings" on page 28 for details.
The projector is capable of playing stereo audio. See"Connecting audio" on page 21 for
details.
Connecting a HDBaseT device
HDBaseT is a technology to transmit image signal use LAN function, RS-232 function and
IR function through a LAN cable.

Only in permanent installations with controlled lighting levels such as boardrooms, lecture
theaters, or home theaters, should color management be considered. Color management
provides fine color control adjustment to allow for more accurate color reproduction, should
you require it.
If you have purchased a test disc which contains various color test patterns and can be used
to test the color presentation on monitors, TVs, projectors, etc., you can project any image
from the disc on the screen and enter the Color Management menu to make adjustments.
To adjust the settings:
1.Open the OSD menu and go to the IMAGE > ADVANCED > Color Management
menu.
2.Press Enter and the Color Management page is displayed.
3.Highlight Primary Color and press / to select a color from among Red, Yellow,
Green, Cyan, Blue, or Magenta.
4.Press to highlight Hue and press / to select its range. Increase in the range
will include colors consisted of more proportions of its two adjacent colors.
Please refer to the illustration to the right for
how the colors relate to each other.
For example, if you select Red and set its
range at 0, only pure red in the projected
picture will be selected. Increasing its range
will include red close to yellow and red close
to magenta.
5.Press to highlight Saturation and adjust
its values to your preference by pressing /
. Every adjustment made will reflect to the
image immediately.
For example, if you select Red and set its
value at 0, only the saturation of pure red will
be affected.
Saturation is the amount of that color in a video picture. Lower settings produce less
saturated colors; a setting of “0” removes that color from the image entirely. If the saturation
is too high, that color will be overpowering and unrealistic.
6.Press to highlight Gain and adjust its values to your preference by pressing / .
The contrast level of the primary color you select will be affected. Every adjustment
made will reflect to the image immediately.
7.Repeat steps 3 to 6 for other color adjustments.
