31 Projecting Storing the projector in the carrying bag After turning off the projector, store the projector and accessories as shown in the following illustration. Notes when storing in the carrying bag • If the lens shutter is open when the projector is stored, the lens could be cracked. • If the adjuster feet are extended when the projector is stored, the feet could break. • If the cables are placed on the top surface of the projector, the surface could be damaged. • When carrying the projector in the carrying bag, do not subject it to any shocks, do not drop it, or place anything heavy on top of it. Failure to do so could damage the projector. • As dust accumulates easily in the carrying bag, clean the dust out of the bag before storing the projector. Close the lens shutter Retract the adjuster feet, and then place the projector in the carrying bag with the lens facing up. Put the cables and remote control in the pocket inside the carrying bag, or under the rear of the projector.
Projecting 32 As the projector does not have a zoom function, adjust the size of the projected image by changing the projection distance. The projector should be placed horizontally on top of a desk, etc. so that the projector is perpendicular to the center of the screen. This projector is designed to project at a slightly upward angle above the horizontal plane of the projector. This is so that they can be readily placed on a table and will project forward and upwards onto a screen positioned so that the bottom edge of the screen is above the level of the table. Adjusting the size of the image The size of the image is determined by the projection distance. The below information shows the relationship between the screen size and the projection distance.

33 Projecting Adjusting the image height The projector is equipped with 2 adjuster feet. Use the front adjuster foot to adjust the height, and the rear adjuster foot to adjust the inclination of the image. If the projector is not placed on a horizontal surface or the screen and the projector are not perpendicular to each other, the projected image becomes trapezoidal. To correct this distortion, see Keystone on page 82 for details. • Do not look into the lens while the light source is on. Strong light from the light source may damage your eyes. Be especially careful that children do not stare directly into the lens. • Be careful when adjusting the feet as they are close to the exhausts that vent hot air. The cabinet etc. gets very hot which could cause a burn. • The adjuster feet can be a choking hazard if swallowed accidentally by small children. Make sure these are placed out of the reach of children. If they are swallowed accidentally, contact a physician immediately. When attaching a camera tripod • When adjusting the height using a tripod, be careful that the projector does not fall. If it falls a malfunction could occur. • See the documentation provided with the tripod for more information on handling and operating the tripod. • When using an elevating tripod, do not extend the elevator. This could cause the projector to fall. Warning Caution
Projecting 34 You can use the HDMI input jack, PC input jack, or the Mini-B USB jack to connect the projector to a computer. If the selected input is not projected even when the projector is on (P27), check that the computer is on and that the steps have been followed correctly. Also check the cable connections. Connecting using the PC input jack You can project analog PC images by connecting a computer cable to the projectors PC input jack. • Use the computer cable supplied (P18). 1. Connect the computer cable supplied to the computers monitor output jack. 2. Connect the other end of the computer cable to the projectors PC input jack. 3. To use the projectors internal speaker, connect a commercially available audio cable to the computers audio output jack, and the other end to the projectors audio input jack. 4.

35 Projecting When using a notebook computer, you need to change the output screen from the computer. You can change the computers output screen by using the computers keyboard. Usually a key combination such as [FN] + a function key ([F1] to [F12]) turns the external display on/off. Locate a function key labeled with a monitor symbol or text, and then press the FN key and the monitor key at the same time. This is not necessary for desktop computers. The function keys and switching operations differ depending on the computer model. See the documentation provided with your notebook for more information. Adjusting the image automatically If the projected computer screen does not fit into the correct area or if the projected image flickers when projecting an analog PC input signal, execute the AUTO PC function to automatically adjust to the optimum status. Press the AUTO PC button on the remote control. While executing the AUTO PC function, information about the input signal is displayed at the corner of the image for about three seconds. This function is only available when a computer is connected (P34) to the projectors PC input jack. HDMI VIDEOAUTO PC
