Chapter 2. Setting up the projector This chapter provides information on positioning the projector, connecting a computer source, using the projector with Microsoft Windows, and displaying and adjusting a computer source image. Starting and shutting down the projector Please follow the steps below to start your projector, and to shut off the projector. Attention: Before moving the projector, be sure to power down the projector normally and disconnect the projector from the main power source. 1. Connect the power cord to the projector as shown in Figure 2-1. Connect the other end to a wall outlet. The Power LED turns on. 2. Remove the lens cover. 3. Attach input devices. 4. Turn on the connected devices. 5. Ensure the Power LED is on a steady (not flashing) amber and then press the Power button to turn on the projector. The projector splash screen displays and connected devices are detected. Attention: Do not look directly into the projection lens when the lamp is turned on. The bright light might harm your eyes. 6. Use the appropriate appliance cable to connect to a video device. 7. To turn off the projector, press the Power button. The projector prepares for shut-down and a ″Power off″ message appears, as shown below. The projector turns off automatically within 5 seconds. Note: This operation can be cancelled by pressing a button other than the Power button. Pressing the Power button again will switch off power. Figure 2-1.

Note: Leave the power cable plugged in for at least 2-5 minutes until the projector returns to room temperature before placing the projector inside the soft case. Placing the projector into the case too soon after switching off the power could cause the projector to overheat. Attention: Before moving the projector, be sure to power down the projector normally and disconnect the projector from the main power source. Positioning the projector To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment. Following are some general guidelines: v Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The projector must be at least 1.5 m (4.9 ft) from the projection screen. v Position the projector within 2.7 m (9 ft) of your power source and within 1.8 m (6 ft) of your video device (unless you purchase extension cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector within .15 m (6 in.) of a wall or other object. v Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format determine the size of the projected image. Figure 2-2. 2-2 IBM M400 PROJECTOR: User ’s Guide
