FOR CUSTOMERS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM

THIS PRODUCT IS SUPPLIED WITH TWO PIN MAINS FOR USE IN MAINLAND EUROPE. FOR THE U.K. PLEASE REFER TO THE CLASS I EQUIPMENT NOTES BELOW.

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse, the value of which is indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse of the same rating must be used.

If the fuse cover is detachable, never use the plug without the cover. If a replacement fuse cover is required, ensure it is of the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from your dealer.

DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer.

Should it be necessary to change the mains plugs, this must be carried out by a competent person, preferably a qualified electrician.

If there is no alternative to cutting off the mains plug, ensure that you first remove the fuse then immediately dispose of the portion remaining, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the code shown in the diagram below:

As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured Green and Yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or coloured Green, or Green and Yellow.

The wire coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured either BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured either BROWN or RED.

Technical Information

Timing Chart

The following table lists the maximum refresh rates that the ViewSonic PJ860 will operate at a number of standard resolutions (timing presets). While the projector is capable of this level of performance, not all video cards are capable of operating at these signal timings. See your graphics card's user guide to ensure compatibility.

CAUTION: Some input sources may not display properly if they are not compatible with the projector. Some input sources may not display in full size, as shown in Output Resolutions.

Connecting to the RS232 Port

The RS232C Port has two possible uses:

1 Mouse Emulation This allows you to use a mouse with one computer at a time, by toggling between one

computer connected to RGB1 and another computer connected to RGB2.

NOTE: Depending on which type of mouse you will be using (PS/2, ADB, or Serial) you must use the appropriate connector. (See diagrams below.)

2 Computer Control Port This is only used for special applications in which a computer controls the projector

(instead of the projector's control buttons or Remote Control Unit).

NOTE: To use this feature you must first develop customized software using various control codes. To find out how to access this supplementary information, contact ViewSonic Customer Support. (See page 15.)

Cleaning the Air Filter

IMPORTANT: Clean the air filter about every 100 hours.

NOTE: If sufficient dust, etc. collects in the air filter, a protection circuit in the projector

will automatically turn off the power. To prevent this from occurring, make sure you clean the air filter every 100 hours.

Replacing the Lamp Unit

To order a new lamp unit (Part No. RLU-190-03A) contact ViewSonic® Customer Support.

Cleaning Instructions

To ensure that the projector functions properly, follow the recommended cleaning instructions below.

Replace the lamp unit if:

• the picture is dark

• "CHANGE THE LAMP" is

displayed

• the lamp indicator on the projector remains lit red. (See page 14.)

CAUTION: HANDLE THE LAMP UNIT

CAREFULLY. Dropping the unit could cause the lamp to explode.

Maintenance

1 Make sure the Main Power switch is OFF, then

disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. If the projector has recently been turned on, wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool down.

2 Carefully place the projector onto a flat surface

covered with soft material (like a towel). Then loosen the Lamp Cover screw and remove the Lamp Cover (as shown to the right).

3 Loosen the two (2) lamp-unit screws, grasp the

Lamp Unit Handle, and gently pull the lamp unit out of the projector.

4 Carefully insert the new lamp unit into the projector

and tighten the lamp-unit screws.

5 Re-install the Lamp Cover and tighten the Lamp

Cover screw securely.

Power-on the projector.

6 Reset the lamp time (within 10 minutes)

• Press RESET (on projector) or TIMER (on Remote Control Unit)

and hold for three (3) seconds

• Press RESET (on projector) or MENU ON (on Remote Control Unit)

• Select "0" on the screen using MENU [<] (on projector) or DISKPAD (on Remote Conrol Unit)

1 Turn OFF the Main Power switch of the projector and disconnect

the power cord from the wall outlet.

2 Remove the Front Filter Cover (see diagram to the right).

3 Remove the air filter from the Front Filter Cover (as shown in the

illustration to the right) and use a vacuum cleaner to clean the filter.
