							Positioning the Projector
Correct positioning of the projector is essential to achieve the best results. Before
deciding on the final location of the projector please ensure you read the following 
information very carefully.
The projector must be situated in a clean, dry environment and away from direct
sunlight or heat. Make sure you locate the projector so that the air inlets and 
outlets for the cooling system are not obstructed.
When positioning the projector always carry it by the retractable handles provided.
The handles pull out from the bottom of the projector and click into place. To
retract the handles, push the securing lever to unlock and push back (see below).
Ensure that the power cord and any other cables connecting to video sources are
disconnected before moving the projector. When moving the projector or when it is
not in use, cover the lens with the lens cap.
PROJECTOR THROW DISTANCE
The further the projector is positioned from the screen or wall, the larger the 
displayed image. The minimum projected image size is 2m (80) measured 
diagonally. The largest the image can be is 12.7m (500).

							When using a zoom lens, exact positioning of the projector is not required as the
image size can be adjusted. However, the projector must be located within the
Throw Distance range imposed by the minimum and maximum lens throw ratios.
To calculate the distance required between the screen and the projector select your
lens type and screen size from the table below.

							As with vertical positioning, the default horizontal position of the projector is at the
centre of the screen. However, the projector can be mounted to the left or right of
image centre and the ‘Lens Shift’ function used to centre the image on screen. The
lens can be shifted within the shaded shown below using the normal projection

							Lens Installation
There are three zoom lenses available for the HIGHLite Displays projectors Model
numbers LA00107, LA00108 and the LA00109. These lenses have throw ratios of
1.5-2.5:1, 2.5-4.0:1 and 4.0-7.0:1 respectively. In addition to the zoom lenses a
fixed lens LA00111 is available with a throw ratio of 0.84:1.
Do not attempt to install a lens if the projector is turned on. If the projector is 
operating, turn off the power and wait for the cooling fan to stop. Next turn off the
main power switch on the rear panel and wait for the projector to cool off.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove the protective sponge from the lens hood.
2. Remove the two screws from the top of the upper lens hood.
3. Push the lower end to lift up and remove the upper lens hood.

							5. Remove the cap from the rear of the lens and insert the lens so that the three pins 
on the lens unit are properly lined up with the holes on the projector.
Do not remove the front lens cap during lens installation. The lens cap helps 
minimise any damage to the front lens element and prevents touching of the lens
surface which can degrade the optical performance.
6. Rotate the lens barrel clockwise to fix the lens unit.
7. Secure the three screws on the lens holder. 
8. Insert the connector of the lens unit into the socket of the extension cable 
attached to the projector.

							This section describes how to select a computer or video source, adjust the picture
edit a signal and adjust all other settings and adjustments for correct projector 
set-up.
Before you turn on the projector ensure that the computer or video source is turned
on and that the projector lens cap is removed.
Plug the supplied power cable into the AC outlet and turn on the projector with the
main power switch on the rear panel of the projector. The projector will go into its
standby mode and the POWER indicator will glow amber.
Press the ‘POWER ON’ button on the remote control or projector cabinet. The
POWER light will turn to green and the projector will fully turn on.
The projector will display a black, blue image or logo if no input signal is present.
To select the desired source press the ‘INPUT’ button on the remote control or press
the MENU button and use the Source Select function.
Adjust the projector position so that it is square to the screen and the displayed
image is horizontally centred. Next, adjust the vertical position of the projected
image using the Lens Shift Control.
Adjustments to the displayed image can be made using the ADJUST PICTURE or
ADJUST WHITE BAL buttons on the remote control or via the Adjust (Source)
option from the Main Menu.
If projecting an image with lower resolution than the projectors native resolution

							Reflecting the Displayed Image
Using a mirror to reflect your projectors image enables you to obtain a much larger
image in a much smaller space. If the image is inverted when using a mirror, it can
be corrected using the Orientation feature under Setup in the Projector Options 
Sub-menu. For further details contact your dealer or Digital Projection.
You can use your HIGHlite Displays projector to project an image from the rear onto
a translucent screen. The throw distance required for rear projections is the same as
for front projection. If the image is inverted when projecting an image from the rear,
it can be corrected using the Orientation feature under Setup in the Projector
Options Sub-menu. For further details contact your dealer or Digital Projection.
Shutter Mechanism
Your HIGHlite Displays projector is equipped with a mechanical shutter which
allows the user to shut off the light completely on the screen. To use the shutter
function, hold down the CTL button, and press the MUTE PICTURE button on the
remote control
Turning Off the Projector
In order to extend the life of the lamp the projector should be turned off as
described below. Press the POWER OFF button on the remote control or the projec-
tor cabinet and allow the fan to cool the projector for three minutes. After the cool-
ing fan stops working the POWER indicator will change to a steady amber glow
and the projector will be in the stand-by mode. The projector can now be turned off
using the main power switch on the rear panel. If the projector is not going to be
used for an extended period it should be disconnected from the mains supply. Do
not turn the projector off and then immediately back on. The Projector needs to cool
down for three minutes before it is powered on again. If you want to turn off the
image briefly (five minutes or less) use the MUTE PICTURE feature.
Do not turn off the main power while the cooling fan is working.
