2 Important Safety Information WARNING: Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is turned on; the bright light can damage your eyes. Never let children look into the lens when it is on. Never open any cover on the projector, except the lamp and filter covers. Dangerous electrical voltages inside the projector can severely injure you. Except as specifically explained in this User’s Guide, do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. WARNING: The projector and its accessories come packaged in plastic bags. Keep plastic bags away from small children to avoid any risk of suffocation. Caution: When you replace the lamp, never touch the new lamp with your bare hands; the invisible residue left by the oil on your hands may shorten the lamp life. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp. Copyright Notice All rights reserved.

9 - Welcome The PowerLite® 6110i is a versatile projector designed to ensure that your presentations are easy and trouble-free, whether you use it in the classroom or conference room. When space is limited, you can project against a surface less than two and one-half feet away. The projector’s keystone correction function allows you to correct image distortion. In addition, the PowerLite 6110i offers outstanding image quality, with up to 3500 lumens of brightness, a resolution of 1024 × 768 pixels, and a 600:1 contrast ratio. Your PowerLite projector can be connected to two computer video sources at the same time, or four video sources. You can include an independent sound channel for each source. Use the remote control to take charge of your presentation. Freeze the action or zoom in on part of the picture. You can also use the remote as a pointer, or to draw on the screen. With the projector’s Easy Management ™ software, you can use a Windows ® PC to remotely monitor and control the projector. To prevent unauthorized use of your PowerLite 6110i, you can assign a password, create a user logo which is displayed at startup to identify the projector, and disable the projector’s buttons through the Operation Lock feature. For more information about security features, see page 65.
10Welcome Getting the Most from Your Projector Depending on your presentation, you can take advantage of any or all of these options: ■Connecting to a notebook or other computer If you want to connect the projector to a notebook or desktop computer, see page 24.

See page 18 for instructions. ■Using the remote control The remote control lets you switch from computer to video sources, zoom in on part of your image, freeze or mute the presentation, and adjust many other projector features. For details, see Chapter 3. ■Including sound in your presentation If your presentation includes sound, you can connect an optional audio cable to the projector to use the projector’s built-in speaker.
