NOTE: The IR remote is a standard component provided with the projector. Use the 
extension cable also provided to convert the IR remote to a wired remote, if desired.  
Refer to Section 3 for a specific description of each key and how to use them correctly. 
 
 
* Toggle keys, which require you to either, press and hold, or press twice or press and 
use the up/down arrow key.

Serial Communication 
Cables 
 
 User’s Manual     C-1 
A serial link of RS232 or RS422 enables ASCII communication with the projector so 
that it can be controlled remotely from a PC or other controller. From a PC, connect a 
standard 9-wire RS232 serial cable to the 
RS232 IN port. Or, for long-distance (>100 
ft.) links with an RS422-compatible PC or controller, connect RS422 cable to the 
RS422 port.

Throw Distance 
 
 User’s Manual     D-1 
Calculating Throw Distance 
It is important throw distance be precisely calculated for your installation using the 
appropriate formula from the chart below. To calculate throw distance you must know 
the screen size and the lens type installed in the projector. In general, the larger you 
want the image to be the greater the distance you must allow between the lens and the 
screen. 
NOTES: 1) Throw distance is 
measured from the screen to 
the center of the projector’s 
front feet. 2) This 
measurement is not 
necessarily parallel to the 
floor as the projector and 
screen may be inclined. 3) 
Due to lens manufacturing, 
throw distance calculations 
have a tolerance of 
± 5%.

shown for 1.2:1 (long throw) lenses. 
Where:  
TD = projector distance from the screen to the center of the projector’s front feet. 
W = screen (image) width (cm)
