Notes on Handling and Storage

Be sure to observe the following precautions to avoid malfunctions, operating errors or damage to the projector.

Notes on Handling and Storage

• Do not set up the projector near high-voltage electrical wires or sources of magnetic fields.

These may interfere with correct operation.

• Do not touch the lens with bare hands.

If fingerprints or grease get onto the lens, it can interfere with the quality of the projected images. Attach the lens cover to the lens when the projector is not in use.

• During projection, some points (dots) may appear lit at all times, or they may be dark at all times.

This is caused by the characteristics of the LCD panel, and is not a sign of a malfunction. The LCD panel is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology. However, black dots may appear on the panel, or some red, blue or green dots may light extremely brightly at times. Furthermore, sometimes stripe-shaped color irregularities or brightness irregularities may also appear.

• Remove the batteries from the remote control before storage.

If the batteries are left in the remote control for long periods, they may leak.

• Always attach the lens cap to the lens when not using the projector, to prevent the lens from becoming dirty or damaged.

• The mercury lamp that is used as the light source for the projector deteriorates as a result of impacts or damage, and also naturally over time as it is used. It may explode with a loud noise or stop illuminating, or the flickering may increase or illumination may stop, and these indicate the end of the lamp's operating life.

At such times, the amount of time remaining before the lamp breaks or stops working may vary greatly depending on the individual lamp characteristics and the operating environment. These are normal characteristics of mercury lamps. You should always have a spare lamp ready in case it is needed.

• YAMAHA takes no responsibility for loss or damage caused by damage to the projector or operating failures outside normal service warranty conditions.

Lamp Operating Errors

The mercury lamp that is used as the light source for this projector may stop operating on occasions. This is a normal characteristic of mercury lamps. If the lamp does not turn on when the projector's power is turned on, remove the lamp and check if it is broken. If the lamp is not broken, reinstall it. Refer to "Replacing the Lamp" on page 53 of this manual for instruction on removing and reinstalling the lamp. If the lamp is broken, replace it with a new lamp. It is recommended that you have a spare lamp ready at all times in case it is needed.

Notes on Carrying the Projector

• Turn off the projector power and then disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.

Furthermore, check that all other cables have been disconnected.

• Attach the lens cap to the lens.

• Retract the adjustable foot.

Notes when transporting the projector

When packing up the projector in its container for transportation, use the lens shift function to lower the lens fully.

Features of the Projector

Image appearance can be selected to match the projection environment (Picture Mode)

The projector is equipped with a unique CB (color balance) filter that enhances the color reproduction of images. It is ideal for use in providing the optimum image effects for the projection environment when viewing images such as games, sporting competitions and movies. It makes other troublesome color adjustments unnecessary. (p.18)

Equipped with a wideangle lens shift function

The lens shift function allows you to adjust the position of the projected images vertically and horizontally without distorting the images. This allows the projector to be set up with greater freedom, even if it is suspended from a ceiling or at an angle to the screen. (p.12)

Wide range of brightness adjustments

The image brightness can be adjusted within a wide range. Optimum images can be obtained even if using the projector in a bright environment for watching videos or games, or in a dark environment such as when creating the atmosphere of a home theatre. (p.30)

Electronic zoom and focus adjustment

The projector's control panel and the accessory remote control can be used for easy zoom and focus adjustments. For zoom adjustment, a high magnification lens is provided to allow images to be increased in size by up to 1.5 times, so that images can be projected onto an 80" screen even at a distance of approximately 2.5 m (8.2 ft.). (p.11, 16)

A variety of image setting functions

Many other functions are available as follows.

Progressive and Motion Detection functions allow you to obtain ideal results both for images with large amounts of movement and for still images. (p.32) An aspect function that allows images to be viewed in wide-screen format. (p.19) Memory functions that allow adjustment results to be stored and later retrieved easily using the remote control. (p.26) Key lock function that locks the control panel so that settings cannot be changed accidentally after adjustment. (p.34) Adoption of a special high-resolution DCDi video circuit developed by Faroudja. This circuit greatly reduces the jagged edges that resulted from conventional progressive conversion. (p.32)

Adjusting the Screen Image

Projection image position adjustment (Lens shift)

The lens shift function can be used to adjust the position of projected images when the projector has been set up in places such as the following.

•••• When the projector is suspended from a ceiling

•••• When the screen is higher than the projector

•••• When the projector is at an angle to the screen so that people can sit directly in front to view the screen

•••• When the projector is on top of a desk or similar

The lens shift function can move the lens horizontally and vertically to adjust the image position without causing keystone distortion. Use the two lens shift dials to adjust the position of the projected images.

* At the time of shipment from the factory, the vertical lens shift position is set to the lowest position, so

move it to the center position before carrying out adjustment.

Horizontal lens shift: The projector can be set up

anywhere between the left and right edges of the screen.

Vertical lens shift: The projector can be set up anywhere

from the top edge of the screen to half the height of the screen below the bottom edge.

Lens at maximum down (Can be shifted by a maximum of half the screen width)

HDTV images

The aspect ratio of the images being input is maintained, and the images are projected into a 16:9 screen area. If projecting images in 4:3 mode such as normal TV broadcasts and computer images, black bands will be displayed at the left and right as shown in the illustration at left.

If projecting HDTV images, they will be projected in 16:9 format.

Squeeze mode

When projecting 4:3 TV images

Zoom mode

Viewed using the projector

This is used when projecting images that have been recorded in squeeze mode using a video camera or DVD recorder. When viewing images recorded in squeeze format on a 4:3 TV, the images will compressed in the horizontal direction and elongated vertically. If squeeze mode is selected for the projector, the images can be projected in their original wide format (16:9).

When the projector's squeeze

mode is applied

When images output in 4:3 format are projected using the projector's squeeze mode, the images will be extended horizontally and the image will appear elongated.

Letterbox images Resized to 16:9

Images in letterbox mode from equipment such as a DVD player will be cut at top and bottom by a fixed amount and resized to 16:9 format. If this causes captions to be truncated from images that have them, use the "Zoom Caption" menu command to adjust. (p.33)

Page 26

Smart Zoom mode

4:3 image

Adjusting the Image Quality

Images in 4:3 format such as normal TV broadcasts are extended horizontally, with less elongation in the middle and more elongation at the edges. This is useful for when 4:3 images are projected onto a wide screen. Because there is almost no distortion due to enlargement in the middle of the images, the images appear close to what they would be at their original size. And because both ends of the images are enlarged, movement at the edges of the images appears faster and gives an impression of greater speed, making it ideal for viewing sporting events.

*If keystone correction has been carried

out, Smart Zoom mode cannot be selected.

Basic Operations

Through mode

Squeeze Through mode

If the input signal resolution is 1280 x 720 dots or less, the images are projected onto the screen with the input signal resolution unchanged. Because of this, the size of the displayed images will change depending on the input resolution. The picture quality will be the clearest for portions of the image that have not been resized horizontally or vertically.

If the input signal resolution is 1280 x 720 dots or less, the input signal resolution is elongated horizontally and the images are projected at an aspect ratio of 16:9. Because of this, the size of the displayed images will change depending on the input resolution. The portions that are not vertically resized will appear with higher image quality.

This adjusts the IP conversion settings depending on whether the images contain large amounts of movement or they are still (or slow) images. If a smaller value is selected, flickering is reduced and images become sharper and more detailed, so this is ideal for viewing still images. If a larger value is selected, the movement becomes smoother with less aliasing and so this is ideal for viewing moving images.

Remove the lens cap.

The recommended distance from the projector to the screen is within 87–1365 cm (2.9–44.8 ft.) for a screen size of 16:9, and 108–1672 cm (3.6–54.9 ft.) for a screen size of 4:3. Set up the projector so that the projection distance is within this range. (Setup Guide)

Decrease the projection angle to reduce the amount of keystone correction. (p.13)

If the projector is suddenly taken from a cold environment to a warm environment or if sudden ambient temperature changes occur, condensation may form on the surface of the lens, and this may cause the images to appear fuzzy. Set the projector up in the room approximately one hour before it is to be used. If condensation forms, disconnect the power cord and let the projector stand for a while.

When the Indicators Provide No Help

Problems when projection starts

Power does not turn on

Have you pressed the [Power] button?

Is "Key Lock" set to "ON"?

Is the indicator lit orange?

Do the indicators turn off and on when the power cord is touched?

Problems with the remote control

The remote control does not work

Is the remote control light-emitting area facing towards the remote control lightreceiving area when it is operated?

Is the remote control too far from the projector?

Is direct sunlight or strong light from fluorescent lamps shining onto the remote control light-receiving area?

Are the batteries dead, or have the batteries been inserted correctly?

Press the button on the remote control or the [STANDBY/ ON] button on the projector's control panel.

If the "Key Lock" menu command is set to "ON", none of the control panel buttons will operate. Press the button on the remote control. "Setup" - "Operation" - "Lock Setting" - "Key Lock" (p.34)

Disconnect the power cord and then reconnect it. (p.6) Check the circuit breaker to see if power is being supplied.

Turn off the projector's power, disconnect the power cord and then reconnect it. If this does not fix the problem, there may be a problem with the power cord. Stop using the projector, turn off the main power switch, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet, and contact your nearest dealer.

Face the remote control towards the remote control light-receiving area. The operating angle for the remote control is approximately ±30° horizontally and approximately ±30° vertically. (Setup Guide)

The operating distance is approximately 7 m. (Setup Guide)

Set the projector up in a location where strong light will not shine onto the remote control light-receiving area.

Insert new batteries, while making sure that they face correctly. (Setup Guide)

Maintenance

This section describes maintenance tasks such as cleaning the projector and replacing consumable parts.

Cleaning

You should clean the projector if it becomes dirty or if the quality of projected images starts to deteriorate.

Be sure to read the handling of the projector during cleaning.

Safety Instructions

Cleaning the Projector Case

Do not use volatile substances such as wax, alcohol or thinner to clean the projector case. These can cause the case to warp and make the coating finish peel off.

Cleaning the Lens

in this manual for details on safe

Clean the projector case by wiping it gently with a soft cloth. If the projector is particularly dirty, moisten the cloth with water containing a small amount of neutral detergent, and then firmly wring the cloth dry before using it to wipe the projector case. Then wipe the case again with a soft, dry cloth.

Use a commercially-available air blower, or use a lens cleaning paper to gently wipe the lens.

Do not rub the lens with harsh materials or subject the lens to shocks, as it can easily become damaged.

Page 54

Cleaning the Air Filter

•

• If the air filter becomes clogged with dust, it can result in overheating which

••

may cause operating problems or reduce the operating life of the optical parts. It is recommended that you clean the air filter about once every three months. If using the projector in a dusty location, the air filter should be cleaned more often.

•

• If the air filter replacement message above appears frequently, consult your

••

dealer.

Maintenance

If the airfilter becomes clogged with dust or the message "The projector is overheating. Make sure nothing is blocking the air vent, and clean or replace the air filter." is displayed, clean the air filter.

Turn the projector upside-down and use a vacuum cleaner to clean the air filter.

* Do not use water or detergents to clean the air filter.

Removing the Air Filter

If the air filter is particularly dirty, remove it and clean it if required.

Turn off the power, wait for the cooldown period to end (takes approximately 30 seconds), and then disconnect the power cord.

Remove the air filter cover.

Push the clasp of the air filter cover with your finger and pull it upward.

Remove the air filter.

Put your finger under the rib at one side of the air filter and lift it up. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any dust from the air filter.

Do not disconnect the power cord while cool-down is in progress, otherwise the cool-down process will not work properly. If the cool-down period is not allowed to finish normally, the projector's lamp and internal components will remain at high temperatures, and this may shorten the useful life of the lamp or cause problems with the operation of the projector. The cool-down period lasts for about 30 seconds. The actual time will vary depending on the external air temperature.

An abbreviation for Directional Correlational Deinterlacing. Refers to a high-resolution image circuit function developed by Faroudja. It incorporates the latest in edge cutting technology to smooth the jaggedness from the edges of images that have been converted from interlaced to progressive video, in order to provide more natural images.

Connecting to a Computer

Turn off the power for both the projector and the computer before connecting them. If the power for either device is on at the time of connection, damage may result. Check the shapes of the cable connectors and the device ports before making the connections. If you try to force a connector to fit a device port with a different shape or number of terminals, damage to the connector or port may result.

The projector cannot be connected to some types of computer, or projection of images may not be possible even if actual connection is possible. Make sure that the computer you intend to use satisfies the conditions given below.

Condition 1: The computer must have a image signal output port.

Check that the computer has a port such as an RGB port, monitor port or video port which can output image signals. If the computer has a built-in monitor, or if using a laptop computer, it may not be possible to connect the computer to the projector, or alternatively you may need to purchase a separate external output

port. Refer to the OWNER'S MANUAL for your computer under a heading such

as "Connecting an external monitor" or similar for further details.

Condition 2: The display resolution and frequency of the computer must

be listed in the "List of Supported Signal Resolutions".

Some computers may have functions for changing the output resolution. Refer to the OWNER'S MANUAL for the computer and change the setting to within a range given in the list of supported resolutions.

You may need to purchase a separate adapter to connect the computer to the projector, depending on the shape of the computer's monitor port. Refer to the OWNER'S MANUAL for the computer for details. The optional Mac Adapter Set is required in order to connect the projector to a Macintosh computer.
