    Adjusting the image
    If necessary, adjust the height of the projector by rotating the elevator foot to extend the 
    foot.
    If necessary, rotate the leveling foot located at the rear of the projector.
    Avoid placing your hands near the hot exhaust vent at the front of the projector.
    Position the projector the desired distance from the screen at a 90 degree angle to the 
    screen.
    See page 7 for a table listing screen sizes and distances.
    Adjust the zoom or focus.
    If the image is not square, first make sure that the projector is perpendicular to the screen. If 
    the image is larger or smaller on the top or bottom edge of the screen, press the top 
    Keystone button  to reduce the upper part of the image, and press the bottom 
    Keystone button  to reduce the lower part.
    If the left or right side of the screen is larger or smaller the other, you can turn the projector 
    to the left or to the right a few degrees to square the image.
    Adjust the Contrast or Brightness in the Basic Menu. See page 26 for help with these menu adjustments.

    Connecting a video device
    You can connect video devices such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, 
    video game consoles, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. You can connect the 
    audio directly to the projector to get sound from the built-in speaker, or you can bypass the 
    projector’s audio system and connect the audio directly from your source to a stereo or 
    home theater system.
    You can connect the projector to most video devices that can output video. You cannot 
    directly connect the coaxial cable that enters your house from a cable or satellite company, 
    the signal must pass through a tuner first. Examples of tuners are digital cable boxes, VCRs, 
    digital video recorders, and satellite TV boxes. Basically, any device that can change channels 
    is considered a tuner.
    Before connecting your projector, you should decide which aspect ratio you want to use. 
    The projector’s Aspect Ratio setting is accessed through the Resize button on the remote or 
    through the projector’s Basic Menu. See 
    page 26 for more information.
    Video device connections
    No video cables are provided with the projector. You can order cables from InFocus or 
    provide your own.
    HDMI connection
    HDMI is a standard, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an 
    interface between sources, such as set-top boxes, DVD players, and receivers and your 
    projector. Plug an HDMI cable into the video-out connector on the video device and into the 
    HDMI connector on the projector.
    Composite video connection
    Plug the composite video cable’s yellow connector into the video-out connector on the 
    video device. Plug the other yellow connector into the yellow Video connector on the 
    projector.
    VGA connection
    If your video device has a 15-pin VGA output, plug one end of the included computer cable 
    into the VGA connector on your video source. This connector may be labeled “To Monitor” 
    on the video source. Plug the computer cable into either the Computer 1 or Computer 2 
    connector on the projector.
    Component video connection
    If your HD video device has component connectors, an optional Component to VGA 
    adapter can be used. Plug the component cable into the video device. Plug the other end of 
    the component cable into the adapter and plug the adapter into the 
    Computer 1 or 
    Computer 2 connector.
    S-video connection
    Plug the S-video cable’s connector into the video-out connector on the video device. Plug 
    the other connector into the S-Video connector on the projector.
    Audio
    For audio, connect a 3.5mm stereo cable to the Audio 1/Audio 2 connector on the projector 
    and to your source. If your source uses RCA audio connectors, a Y-cable or adapter may be 
    used. (Note: A separate audio connection is not required for HDMI source inputs.)

    Shutting down the projector
    Auto Off Time
    The projector also has an Auto Off Time feature that automatically turns the projector off 
    after no active sources are detected and no user interaction with the projector is performed 
    for 30 minutes. By default, this feature is off. You can change the length of time, see 
    page 30.
    Turning off the projector
    To turn the projector off, press the Power button on the remote or keypad. The lamp turns 
    off and the Power LED blinks blue for 30 seconds while the fans continue to run to cool the 
    lamp. If the Power Saving Mode feature is on and when the lamp has cooled, the LED lights 
    blue and the fans stop. If the Power Saving Mode feature is off and when the lamp has cooled, 
    the LED blinks blue and the fans stop. Unplug the power cable to completely power off the 
    projector.
    Troubleshooting your setup
    If your image appears correctly on the screen, skip to the next section. If it does not, 
    troubleshoot the setup.
    The Status Indicator Lights on top of the projector indicates the state of the projector and 
    can help you troubleshoot.
