least five pounds. Refer to the owner’s manual that came with your 
tripod for more information.

Using the Remote Control
There are two remote control receiver sensors on the projector. 
They are located on the Compaq logo plates on either side of the 
projector. When using the remote control, be sure these sensors 
are not blocked. The remote control will work up to 21.0 feet 
(6.4 meters) from the projector when pointed at one of the 
sensors.
The Page Up and Page Down functions of the remote control will 
not work unless a desktop or notebook computer is connected to 
the projector with the USB cable. These functions are not 
available when a Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC is connected to the 
projector.
To use the Page Up and Page Down functions on the remote 
control, the USB cable (included with the projector) must be 
used. Connect one end of the USB cable to the USB connector on 
the projector and the other end to the USB connector on the 
computer.
✎Microsoft Windows XP, Windows ME, Windows 2000, and 
Windows 98 support USB connections. Microsoft Windows NT 
and early versions of Windows 95 do not support USB 
connections.
