Precautions

On safety

•Check that the operating voltage of your unit is

identical with the voltage of your local power

supply.

•Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet,

unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified

personnel before operating it further.

•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be

used for several days.

•To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never

pull the cord itself.

•The wall outlet should be near the unit and easily

accessible.

•The unit is not disconnected to the AC power source

(mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet,

even if the unit itself has been turned off.

•Do not look into the lens while the lamp is on.

•Do not place your hand or objects near the

ventilation holes — the air coming out is hot.

•Be careful not to catch your fingers with the

adjusters when you lift up the projector. Do not push

hard on the top of the projector with the adjusters

out.

•Be sure to grasp both sides when carrying the

projector.

On illumination

•To obtain the best picture, the front of the screen

should not be exposed to direct lighting or sunlight.

•Ceiling-mounted spot lighting is recommended. Use

a cover over fluorescent lamps to avoid lowering the

contrast ratio.

•Cover any windows that face the screen with opaque

draperies.

•It is desirable to install the projector in a room where

floor and walls are not of light-reflecting material. If

the floor and walls are of reflecting material, it is

recommended that the carpet and wall paper be

changed to a dark color.

On preventing internal heat build-up

After you turn off the power with the I /

1

key on the

Remote Commander or on the control panel, do not

disconnect the unit from the wall outlet while the

cooling fan is still running.

Caution

The projector is equipped with ventilation holes

(intake) on the bottom and ventilation holes (exhaust)

on the front. Do not block or place anything near these

holes, or internal heat build-up may occur, causing

picture degradation or damage to the projector.

On cleaning

•To keep the cabinet looking new, periodically clean

it with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed

with a cloth lightly dampened with a mild detergent

solution. Never use strong solvents, such as thinner,

benzene, or abrasive cleansers, since these will

damage the cabinet.

•Avoid touching the lens. To remove dust on the lens,

use a soft dry cloth. Do not use a damp cloth,

detergent solution, or thinner.

•Clean the filter at regular intervals, every 300 hours.

On repacking

Save the original shipping carton and packing

material; they will come in handy if you ever have to

ship your unit. For maximum protection, repack your

unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

About the LCD projector

The LCD projector is manufactured using high-

precision technology. You may, however, see tiny

black points and/or bright points (red, blue, or green)

that continuously appear on the LCD projector. This is

a normal result of the manufacturing process and does

not indicate a malfunction.

3) NTSC4.43 is the color system used when playing back a video recorded on NTSC on an NTSC4.43 system VCR.

Features

High brightness, high picture quality

•High brightness

The 200 W UHP lamp optical system provides

brightness levels of as much as 2000 ANSI lumens

and excellent picture uniformity.

•High resolution

Three 0.9-inch, approximately 790,000 pixel, XGA

panels provide a resolution of 1024 × 768 dots for

RGB input and 750 horizontal TV lines for video

input.

Simple setup

•Simple setup with external equipment

The projector has 37 preset data items for input

signals in memory, which allows you to project a

clear picture on the screen simply by connecting

equipment and pressing the APA (Auto Pixel

Alignment) key.

•USB application

You can control the projector using the wireless

mouse control function of the supplied Remote

Commander. You can also control the projector from

a computer operated with Microsoft

1)

Windows

98,

Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000 or Windows XP

using the “Projector Station” application software

(CD-ROM) supplied with the projector.

Easy presentation

•Multi functional Remote Commander with mouse

control functions

You can carry out the mouse functions of a computer

connected to this projector using the Remote

Commander because the unit has a built-in receiver

for handling mouse commands.

•Digital zoom / freeze functions

This projector has a digital zoom function that enables

you to enlarge the image at a desired location on the

screen. The freeze function allows you to freeze the

picture projected. The frozen picture continues to be

projected even if the equipment is disconnected from

the video source.

Accepts various input signals

•Scan converter loaded

This projector has a built-in scan converter that

converts the input signal to 1024 × 768 dots.

•Compatible input signals

This projector accepts composite, S video, and

2 Replace the lid.

Notes on batteries

•Make sure that the battery orientation is correct when

inserting batteries.

•Do not mix an old battery with a new one, or

different types of batteries.

•If you do not intend to use the Remote Commander

for a long time, remove the batteries to avoid damage

from battery leakage. If batteries have leaked,

remove them, wipe the battery compartment dry and

replace the batteries with new ones.

Notes on Remote Commander operation

•Make sure that there is nothing to obstruct the

infrared beam between the Remote Commander and

the remote control detector on the projector. Direct

the Remote Commander toward the front or rear

remote control detector.

•The operation range is limited. The shorter the

distance between the Remote Commander and the

projector is, the wider the angle within which the

commander can control the projector.

Connecting the Projector

When making connections, be sure to do the

following:

•Turn off all equipment before making any

connections.

•Use the proper cables for each connection.

•Insert the cable plugs properly; plugs that are not

fully inserted often generate noise or cause picture

degradation. When pulling out a cable, be sure to

pull it out grasping the plug, not the cable itself.

Connecting to a Computer

This section describes how to connect the projector to

a computer.

For more information, refer to the computer’s

instruction manual.

Notes

•The projector accepts VGA, SVGA, XGA, and

SXGA signals. However, we recommend that you

set the output mode of your computer to XGA mode

for the external monitor.

•If you set your computer, such as a notebook type, to

output the signal to both your computer’s display and

an external monitor, the picture of the external

monitor may not appear properly. Set your computer

to output the signal to only the external monitor.

For details, refer to the operating instructions supplied

with your computer.

•This projector is compatible with DDC2B (Display

Data Channel 2B). If your computer is compatible

with DDC

1)

, turn the projector on according to the

following procedures.

1 Connect the projector to the computer using the

supplied HD D-sub 15-pin cable.

2 Turn the projector on.
