Before connecting, ensure that the power cord of the projector is unplugged from the AC
outlet and turn off the equipment to be connected. After making all conn\
ections, turn on the
projector and then the other pieces of equipment. When connecting a computer, ensure that
it is the last equipment to be turned on after all the connections are m\
ade.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure that the appropriate input mode has been selected on the projector before
you turn on the connected equipment.
•For more details of connection and cables, refer to the  owner’s manual of the connecting equipment.•You may need other cables or connectors not listed below.

Note
• See page  62 “Computer Compatibility Chart” for a list of computer signals compatible with the projec-
tor. Use with computer signals other than those listed may cause some of th\
e functions to not work.
•A  Macintosh adaptor may be required for use with some Macintosh computers. Contact your near-
est Macintosh Dealer.
• Depending on the computer you are using, an image may not be projected unless the
computer’s external output port is switched on.  Refer to the specific instructions in your computer
owner’s manual to enable your computer’s external output port.

Note
•
Only for EIP-2600:
- While the projector is connected to video equipment that has an HDMI output terminal, only the
video signal can be input to the projector. (Connect the AUDIO input terminal for audio input.)
- Depending on specifications of video equipment or HDMI to DVI digital ca\
ble, the signal trans-
mission may not work property. (The HDMI specification does not support all connections to video
equipment that has HDMI digital output terminal using HDMI to DVI digital cable.)
- For details on compatibility for connection, see support information on DVI connection provided
by the video equipment manufacturer.
• When you connect video equipment with a 21-pin RGB output (Euro-scart) to the projector, use a
commercially available cable that fits in the projector terminal you want to connect.
• The projector does not support RGBC signals via the Euro-scart.

Note
•Only for EIP-2600:

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 
57 for
details.
When connecting to a computer using an RS-232C serial control cable and a DIN-
D-sub RS-232C adaptor
Note
• The RS-232C function may not operate if your computer terminal is not correctly set up. Refer to the
owner’s manual of the computer for details.
• See page  56 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.

Turning the Projector On/Off
On-screen display (confirmation message)
• When “Auto Restart” is set to “On”:
If the power cord is unplugged from the outlet
or the breaker switch is turned off when the
projector is on, then the projector automati-
cally turns on when the power cord is plugged
into the AC outlet or the breaker switch is
turned on. (See page  45.)
• English is the factory default language. If you
want to change the on-screen display to an-
other language, change the language accord-
ing to the procedure on page  44.
Info
Tu rning 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  21 to  24.)
Remove the lens cap and press
STANDBY/ON  on the projector or  ON
on the remote control.
•The power indicator illuminates red.•After the lamp indicator illuminates, the projec-
tor is ready to start operation.
Note
• 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.
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.
•
When System Lock is set, the keycode input box
appears. To cancel the keycode setting, input
the keycode that you have already set. See page
46  for details.
Tu rning the Power off (Putting
the Projector into Standby Mode)
Press  STANDBY/ON  on the projector or
STANDBY  on the remote control, then
press that button again while the confir-
mation message is displayed, to put the
projector into standby mode.
• The projector cannot be turned on while cool-
ing.

•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 carrying.• Do not hold by the lens area.
Use the rear adjustment foot to
make the projector level.
•The projector is adjustable ±2 degrees
from the standard position.
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 9 degrees from the surface on which
the projector is placed.
Lift the projector to adjust its
height while lifting the HEIGHT
ADJUST lever.
