Connecting your devices

CAUTION ►Turn off all devices prior to connecting them to the projector.

Attempting to connect a live device to the projector may generate extremely loud noises or other abnormalities that may result in malfunction and/or damage to the device and/or projector. ►Use the accessory cable or a designated-type cable for the connection. Some cables have to be used with core set. A too long cable may cause a certain picture degradation. Please consult with your dealer for details. For cables that have a core only at one end, connect the core to the projector. ►Make sure that you connect devices to the correct port. Incorrect connection may result in malfunction and/or damage to the device and/or projector.

NOTE • Whenever attempting to connect a laptop computer to the projector, be sure to activate the laptop’s RGB external image output (set the laptop to CRT display or to simultaneous LCD and CRT display). For details on how this is done, please refer instruction manual of the corresponding laptop computer.

• Secure the screws on the connectors and tighten.

• Some computers may have multiple display screen modes. Use of some of these modes will not be possible with this projector.

• For some RGB signal modes, the optional Mac adapter is necessary.

• When the image resolution is changed on a computer, depending on an input, automatic adjust 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.

About Plug-and-Play capability

Plug-and-Play is a system composed of the computer, its operating system and peripheral equipment (i.e. display devices). This projector is compatible with VESA DDC 2B. Plug-and-Play can be achieved by connecting this projector to computers that are VESA DDC (display data channel) compatible.

• Please take advantage of this function by connecting the accessory RGB cable to the RGB IN1 port (DDC 2B compatible) and/or the optional DVI cable to the DVI-D 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 computer as this projector is a Plug-and-Play monitor.

• The PJ862's DVI is compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) and therefore capable of displaying video from HDCP compatible DVD players, et al. However, if the HDCP standards are modiﬁed, the PJ862's DVI might not be able to display video from HDCP compatible device developed in conformance to such modiﬁed HDCP standards.

CAUTION ►Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures

other than those speciﬁed herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

This remote control has a laser pointer in place of a ﬁnger or rod. The laser beam works and theLASER INDICATOR lights while the LASER button is pressed.

Putting batteries

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 ﬁre, injury and/or pollution of the surrounding environment.

• Be sure to use only the batteries speciﬁed. 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 ﬁre or water. Keep batteries in a dark, cool and dry place.

•

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

If the ﬂower adheres your body or clothes, rinse well with water immediately.

Using the remote control

CAUTION ►Be careful in handling the remote control.

• Do not drop or otherwise expose the remote control to physical impact.

• Do not get the remote control wet or place it on wet objects. Doing so may result in malfunction.

• Remove the batteries from the remote control and store them in a safe place if you won’t be using the remote control for an extended period.

• Replace the batteries whenever the remote control starts to malfunction.

• When strong lights, such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close range (such as from an inverter ﬂuorescent lamp), hit the projector’s remote sensor, the remote control may cause to function. Adjust the direction of the projector to keep light from directly hitting the projector’s remote sensor.

The remote control works with the projector’s remote sensor.

30º

approx. 3 meters

30º

• The range of the remote sensor is 3 meters with a 60- degree range (30 degrees to the left and right of the remote sensor).

• Also a remote signal reﬂected in the screen etc. may be available. If it is difﬁcult to send a remote signal to the sensor directly, please try.

• Since the remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class1 LED), be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote control’s output signal to the projector.

• You can use the remote control as a wired remote control, by connecting the REMOTE CONTROLports of the main unit and remote control via an audio cable (3.5 dia. stereo mini cable with plugs).

WARNING

HIGH VOLTAGE

HIGH TEMPERATURE

HIGH PRESSURE

►The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp can break with a loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, handled while hot, or worn over time. Note that each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of glass to ﬂy into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the projector’s vent holes.

►About disposal of a lamp • This product contains a mercury lamp; do not put in trash. Dispose of in accord with environmental laws. For lamp recycling, go to www.lamprecycle.org. (in the US) For product disposal, contact your local government agency or www.eiae.org (in the US) or www.epsc.ca (in Canada). For more information, call your dealer.

• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unplug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling, so please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.

Disconnect

the plug from the

power

• If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.

• Before replacing the lamp, turn the projector off and unplug the power

outlet

cord, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently. Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the lamp.

• Never unscrew except the appointed (marked by an arrow) screws.

• Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from above. This is dangerous, since if the lamp’s bulb has broken, the shards will fall out when the cover is opened. In addition, working in high places is dangerous, so ask your local dealer to have the lamp replaced even if the bulb is not broken.

• Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed. At the lamp replacing, make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose screws could result in damage or injury.

• Use only the lamp of the speciﬁed type.

• If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible that there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens, contact your local dealer or a service representative.

•

Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.

• If the indicators or a message prompts you to replace the lamp (see the section "Related Messages" and "Regarding the indicator Lamps"), replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not use old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.

Inside of the projector

In order to ensure the safe use of your projector, please have it cleaned and inspected by your dealer about once every 2 years.

Caring for the lens

If the lens is ﬂawed, soiled or fogged, it could cause deterioration of display quality. Please take care of the lens, being cautious of the handling.

Turn the projector off, and unplug the power cord. Allow the projector to cool
