27 Controlling the Projector by a Computer When the RS-232C terminal on the projector is connected to a computer with a DIN-D-sub RS- 232C adaptor and an RS-232C serial control cable (cross type, commercially available), the com- puter can be used to control the projector and check the status of the projector. See page 58 for detail. When connecting to a computer using an RS-232C serial control cable and a DIN- D-sub RS-232C adaptor To RS-232C terminal To RS-232C terminal DIN-D-sub RS-232C adaptor RS-232C serial control cable (cross type, commercially available) Note • The RS-232C function may not operate if your computer terminal is not correctly set up. Refer to the operation manual of the computer for details. • See page 58 for connection of an RS-232C serial control cable. Info • Do not connect the RS-232C cable to a port other than the RS-232C terminal on the computer. This may damage your computer or projector. • Do not connect or disconnect an RS-232C serial control cable to or from the computer while it is on. This may damage your computer.

28 Turning the Projector On/Off Remove the lens cap and press oSTANDBY-ON on the projector or bON on the remote control. •About the Lamp Indicator The lamp indicator illuminates to indicate the status of the lamp. Green:The lamp is on. Blinking in green:The lamp is warming up or shutting down. Red:The lamp is shut down abnormally or the lamp should be replaced. • When switching on the projector, a slight flick- ering of the image may be experienced within the first minute after the lamp has been illumi- nated. This is normal operation as the lamp’s control circuitry is stabilising the lamp output characteristics. It should not be regarded as faulty operation. • If the projector is put into standby mode and immediately turned on again, the lamp may take some time to start projection.STANDBY-ON buttonNote Lamp indicator • English is the factory default language. If you want to change the on-screen display to another language,change the language according to the procedure on page 50. Info Turning the Projector on Note that the connections to external equip- ment and power outlet should be done be- fore performing the operations written be- low. (See pages 23 to 28.)

Unplug the power cord from the AC outlet after the cooling fan stops. • The power indicator on the projector blinks in red while cooling. • The power indicator changes to green when the projector finishes cooling. • Do not unplug the power cord during projection or cooling fan operation. This can cause dam- age due to rise in internal temperature, as the cooling fan also stops. InfoR STANDBY button Switching the Input Mode Press the appropriate INPUT button on the remote control to select the desired input mode. • When pressing INPUT (P/R) on the projector, input mode switches in the following order: INPUT1 INPUT2 INPUT3 INPUT6 INPUT5 INPUT4 Select the appropriate input mode for the connected equipment.

30 The height of the projector can be ad- justed using the adjustment feet at the front and rear of the projector. When the screen is above the projec- tor, the projection image can be made higher by adjusting the projector. 1 2 Remove your hands from the HEIGHT ADJUST lever of the pro- jector after its height has been finely adjusted. • The angle of projection is adjustable up to 8 degrees from the surface on which the projector is placed. Lift the projector to adjust its height while lifting the HEIGHT ADJUST lever.HEIGHT ADJUST lever Make small adjustments. 3 Adjusting the Height You can adjust the focus with the focus ring on the projector.

31 3 • Do not apply too much pressure on the pro- jector when the front adjustment foot comes out. • When lowering the projector, be careful not to get your fingers caught in the area between the adjustment foot and the projector. • Hold the projector firmly while lifting or carry- ing. • Do not hold by the lens area. Use the rear adjustment foot to make the projector level. • The projector is adjustable ±1 degree from the standard position. Info Rear adjustment foot • When adjusting the height of the projector, trapezoidal distortion occurs. Follow the pro- cedures in Keystone Correction to correct the distortion. (See page 32.) Note
32 Correcting Trapezoidal DistortionAdjustment buttons (P/R/O/Q) KEYSTONE button When the image is projected either from the top or from the bottom towards the screen at an angle, the image becomes distorted trapezoidally. The function for correcting trapezoidal distortion is called Keystone Correction. There are the two types of the Keystone Correction. 1) The “GEOMETRIC ADJUSTMENT” method corrects trapezoidal distor- tion by specifying 4 marks on the screen. 2) The “H & V KEYSTONE” method fea- tures corrections to 2 axes (horizon- tal and vertical) based on numerical values.

H & V KEYSTONEFor correcting an image by designating the horizontal or vertical axes. (See page 35.) Pressc KEYSTONE on the remote control. • “GEOMETRIC ADJUSTMENT” will be displayed. • Each time c KEYSTONE is pressed, the display toggles as follows: Select the Keystone correction method. GEOMETRIC ADJUSTMENTH & V KEYSTONE The display disappears. • When corrections are made with Keystone cor- rection, the changes are saved even if the power cord is unplugged. • Since Keystone correction digitally corrects the signal, resolution may slightly decrease when it is used. Moiré patterns and line dis- tortions may also be visible in detailed images. However, this is not a malfunction. • If you cannot correct trapezoidal distortion with Keystone correction, change the placement position of the projector. • Straight lines and the edges of the displayed image may appear jagged, when adjusting the Keystone setting. • Also read “About Copyrights” on page37.
