Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without any obstructions to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or other soft covering that may block the vents. Locate the projector at least 4 (1.2 m) away from any heating or cooling vents. Use only InFocus-approved ceiling mounts. Use only the power cord provided. A surge-protected power strip is recommended. Refer to this guide for proper startup and shutdown procedures. This product has a lamp which contains a very small amount of mer - cury. Wash hands after cleaning the area and handling the ruptured lamp. Dispose of it as required by local, state or federal ordinances and regulations. For more information see www.eiae.org. In the unlikely event of a lamp rupture, particles may exit through the projector side vents. When the projector is turned on, keep people, food, and drinks out of the keep out area under and around the pro - jector, as indicated by the X areas below. Follow these instructions to help ensure image quality and lamp life over the life of the projector. Failure to follow these instructions may affect the warranty.

They are compatible with a wide variety of computers and video devices, including: IBM-compatible computers, including laptops, up to 1024x768 resolu - tion for the IN24 and 1400x 1050 for the IN26. Apple ® Macintosh ® and PowerBook ® computers up to 1024x768 reso - lution for the IN24 and 1400x 1050 for the IN26.

5 Positioning the projectorTo 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. Here are some general guide - lines: Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The projector must be at least 4.9 feet (1.5m) from the projection screen. Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and within 6 feet (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase exten - sion cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object. If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, refer to the installation guide that comes with the Ceiling Mount Kit for more information. To turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” on page 31. We recommend using an InFocus authorized ceiling mount. 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. The image exits the projector at a given angle. This image offset is 112.2%. This means that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 1.12’ above the center of the lens.
