Setting up

Connecting your devices (continued)

NOTE • Be sure to read the manuals for devices before connecting them to the

projector, and make sure that all the devices are suitable to be connected with this
product. Before connecting to a PC, check the signal level, the signal timing, and the
resolution.

- Some signal may need an adapter to input this projector.

- Some PCs have multiple screen display modes that may include some signals which
are not supported by this projector.

- Although the projector can display signals with resolution up to UXGA (1600X1200),

the signal will be converted to the projector’s panel resolution before being displayed.
The best display performance will be achieved if the resolutions of the input signal and
the projector panel are identical.

• While connecting, make sure that the shape of the cable's connector fi ts the port to

connect with. And be sure to tighten the screws on connectors with screws.

• When connecting a laptop PC to the projector, be sure to activate the PC’s external

RGB output. (Set the laptop PC to CRT display or to simultaneous LCD and CRT
display.) For details on how this is done, please refer to the instruction manual of the
corresponding laptop PC.

• When the picture resolution is changed on a pc depending on an input, automatic

adjustment function may take some time and may not be completed. In this case,
you may not be able to see a check box to select “Yes/No” for the new resolution on
Windows. Then the resolution will go back to the original. It might be recommended to
use other CRT or LCD monitors to change the resolution.

• In some cases, this projector may not display a proper picture or display any picture on

screen. For example, automatic adjustment may not function correctly with some input
signals. An input signal of composite sync or sync on G may confuse this projector, so
the projector may not display a proper picture.

About Plug-and-Play capability

Plug-and-Play is a system composed of a PC, its operating system and peripheral
equipment (i.e. display devices). This projector is VESA DDC 2B compatible. Plug-and­Play can be used by connecting this projector to a pc that is VESA DDC (display data
channel) compatible.

• Take advantage of this feature by connecting an RGB cable to the COMPUTER IN1

port (DDC 2B compatible). Plug-and-Play may not work properly if any other type of
connection is attempted.

• Please use the standard drivers in your pc as this projector is a Plug-and-Play monitor.

Putting batteries

Please set the batteries to the remote control before using it. If the remote control starts

2.

according to their plus and minus terminals

as indicated in the remote control.

Replace the battery cover in the direction of the arrow and snap it back into place.

3.

WARNING ►Always handle the batteries with care and use them only as

directed. Improper use may result in battery explosion, cracking or leakage,
which could result in fi re, injury and/or pollution of the surrounding environment.

• Be sure to use only the batteries specifi ed. Do not use batteries of different

types at the same time. Do not mix a new battery with used one.

•

Make sure the plus and minus terminals are correctly aligned when loading a battery.

• Keep a battery away from children and pets.

• Do not recharge, short circuit, solder or disassemble a battery.

•

Do not allow a battery in a fi re or water. Keep batteries in a dark, cool and dry place.

•

If you observe battery leakage, wipe out the leakage and then replace a battery. If the

leakage adheres to your body or clothes, rinse well with water immediately.

• Obey the local laws on disposing the battery.

About the remote control signal

The remote control works with the projector’s
remote sensor. This projector has a remote sensor
on the front.
The sensor senses the signal within the following
range when the sensor is active:
60 degrees (30 degrees to the left and right of the
sensor) within 3 meters about.

NOTE • The remote control signal refl ected in the screen or the like may

be available. If it is diffi cult to send the signal to the sensor directly, attempt to
make the signal refl ect.

• The remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1 LED),

so be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block
the remote control’s signal to the projector.

•

The remote control may not work correctly if strong light (such as direct sun light) or light
from an extremely close range (such as from an inverter fl uorescent lamp) shines on the
remote sensor of the projector. Adjust the position of projector avoiding those lights.
