manual and check the compatibility of the signal level, the synchronization 
methods and the display resolution output to the projector. 
-   Some signal may need an adapter to input this projector.
-   Some computers have multiple screen display modes that may include some 
signals which are not supported by this projector.
-    Although the projector can display signals with resolution up to UXGA   
(1600X1200), the signal will be converted to the projector’s panel resolution 
before being displayed. The best display performance will be achieved if the 
resolutions of the input signal and the projector panel are identical.

About the remote control signal
The remote control works with the projector’s remote 
sensor. This projector has a remote sensor on the front.
The sensor senses the signal within the following range 
when the sensor is active:
60 degrees (30 degrees to the left and right of the sensor) 
within 3 meters about.
• The remote control signal reflected in the screen or the like may be available. 
If it is difficult to send the signal to the sensor directly, attempt to make the signal reflect.
• The remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1 
LED), so be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that 
could block the remote control’s signal to the projector.
• 
The remote control may not work correctly if strong light (such as direct sun 
light) or light from an extremely close range (such as from an inverter fluorescent 
lamp) shines on the remote sensor of the projector. Adjust the position of 
projector avoiding those lights.
