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

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 1 or COMPUTER IN 2 signal input socket on the projector.

3. If you wish to use the remote mouse control function, take a USB cable and connect the larger end to the USB port of the computer, and smaller end to the MINI USB socket on the projector. See "Using the remote mouse control" on page 8 for details.

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

18.

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 IN 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 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

•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 20 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 20 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 20 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 21 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 input and the projected picture displays wrong colors, please change the color space to YUV. See "Changing HDMI input settings" on page 27 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 IN 1 or COMPUTER IN 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 19 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 and S-Video inputs are unavailable for use. See "Connecting Video source devices" on page

19 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.

You can also use a microphone to output the sound through the projector speaker when the BASIC > Audio Settings > Audio In 2 menu is set to Microphone. See "Adjusting the

Audio In 2 setting" on page 45 for details.

Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen Display (OSD) menus. See "Adjusting the sound" on page 44 for details.

About the microphone input

• If you wish to use a microphone, connect a 3.5 mini jack cable microphone to the

projector.

• You can use a wireless microphone as long as a wireless module is attached to the

projector’s microphone input jack and it works well with the associated devices. To ensure a quality use of the wireless microphone, it is recommended that your microphone conforms to the specifications listed in the table below.

Signal Parameter Min Ty pe Max

Transducer Principle Dynamic

Microphone

Impedance 300 1K ohm

Frequency response 600 16k Hz

• There are two ways to adjust microphone volumes.

• Directly set microphone volume levels in the BASIC > Audio Settings >

Microphone Volume menu.

• Set projector volume levels in the BASIC > Audio Settings > Audio Settings >

Audio Volume menu, or press (Volume Up)/ (Volume Down) on the remote control. (The projector volume setting will affect the microphone volume.)

• If the microphone is not working, check the volume setting and cable connection.

• You might get feedback noise from the microphone when you are too close to the

speaker of the projector. Move the microphone away from the speaker of the projector.

The greater volume you require, the greater distance you need to be away from the speaker to prevent the noise.

Using the cable management cover (optional)

This cable management cover helps you to conceal and organize the cables connected to the back of the projector. It is especially useful when the projector is ceiling-mounted or wallmounted.

1. Make sure that all the cables are properly connected to the projector.

2. Attach the cable management cover to the back of the projector.

3. Tighten the screws that secure the cable management cover.

Operation

Starting up the projector

1. Plug the power cord into the projector and into a wall socket. Turn on the wall socket switch (where fitted).

2. (If available) Remove the lens cap.

3. Press Power to start the projector. As soon as the lamp lights up, a "Power On Ring Tone" will be heard. The Power indicator light stays blue when the projector is on.

(If necessary) Rotate the focus ring to adjust the image clearness.

If the projector is still hot from previous activity, it will run the cooling fan for approximately 90 seconds before energizing the lamp.

To maintain the lamp life, once you turn the projector on, wait at least 5 minutes before turning it off.

To turn off the ring tone, see "Turning off the Power On/Off Ring Tone" on page 45 for details.

4. If the projector is activated for the first time, select your OSD language following the on-screen instructions.

5. Switch all of the connected equipment on.

6. The projector will start to search for input signals. The current input signal being scanned appears in the upper left corner of the screen. If the projector doesn't detect a valid signal, the message 'No Signal' will continue to be displayed until an input signal is found. You can also press Source to select your desired input signal. See "Switching input

signal" on page 27 for details.

If the frequency/resolution of the input signal exceeds the projector's operating range, you will see the message 'Out of Range' displayed on a blank screen. Please change to an input signal which is compatible with the projector's resolution or set the input signal to a lower setting. See "Timing chart" on page 75 for details.
