Troubleshooting Network Functions • If network status is shown as Not Connected in the projectors Network menu, or the projector does not display its IP address, check the cable or the network configuration. • If your web browser displays Page Not Found or a similar error when you try to access the projectors web pages, verify that the projector is connected to the network (select the Network item in the projectors Setup menu and verify that Network Status shows as Connected); if there is no connection refer to the troubleshooting item above for more help. • Make sure the Network item in the Always-On Functions submenu in the Setup menu is set to Yes (if it is set to No, the projector web pages will only be available when the projector is powered on). • If scheduled tasks are not performed, check if the SNTP is set up correctly and is online. Also check if the Command sequence is correct. • If automatic emails are not sent, check if SMTP is set up correctly and is online. To manually restart the projector network subsystem: Use the projectors remote control or keypad to select the Network item in the projectors Setup menu. Then scroll down and select either Restart Network (to restart the network subsystem without changing any settings), or Network Factory Reset (to return all network settings back to default values, and then restart the network subsystem). If the manual restart procedure does not work: To force the network subsystem to restart, disconnect the projector from AC power, wait 10 seconds, then reconnect AC power.
42 Using LitePort LitePort displays a slide show of JPEG images stored on a USB flash drive connected to the projector. This feature eliminates the need for a computer source and can be integrated with common wall plates and conference room input/output panels. Image File Types LitePort displays image files in JPEG format only (file extensions .JPEG and .JPG). Other file types including PDF, BMP, TIFF, PNG, GIF, etc. are ignored. Viewing a Slide Show To view your pictures as a slide show, follow these steps: 1Connect a USB flash drive to your computer and copy JPEG files from your computer to the USB flash drive. 2Turn on your projector if needed. 3Remove the USB flash drive from your computer and plug it into the LitePort connector on the rear of the projector. 4The projector will start a slide show of the images found (if you see image thumbnails instead, see To Start the Slide Show section below). 5To go to the next image in the slide show, press the Down or Right arrow button on the projector keypad or remote.

Displaying PowerPoint Slides Follow the steps below to display PowerPoint slides using LitePort (these instructions apply to PowerPoint 2007 in Windows; for other presentation programs refer to the programs instructions or help file for the steps needed to save a presentation as separate JPEG files): 1Connect the USB flash drive to your computer. 2Open your PowerPoint document. 3This step is optional but improves image quality: Click the Design tab near the top of the PowerPoint document window, then click Page Setup. Click the Slides sized for drop-down menu and select Custom. Change both Width and Height to double their previous values, then click OK. 4Click the Office button in the upper left corner of the PowerPoint document window. 5Point to Save As, then click Other Formats. 6In the Save As dialog box, click the Save as type drop-down menu. Scroll through the menu and select JPEG File Interchange Format. 7Make sure the contents of your USB flash drive are visible in the Save As dialog box before you continue - to view your USB flash drive in the Save As dialog box, first click My Computer, then double-click the USB flash drives icon (make sure you do both of these in the Save As dialog box, not on your computers desktop). 8Click Save. PowerPoint will ask if you want to export every slide or only the current slide; click Every Slide. PowerPoint will save each slide in your presentation as a separate JPEG file. These files are saved in a new folder that has the same name as the original document. 9Remove the USB flash drive from your computer and plug it into the projectors LitePort connector. 10On the projector, navigate to the folder created in step 8 and then start the slide show (for instructions on navigating and controlling the slide show, see the Controlling LitePort section above). NOTE: PowerPoint embedded videos, transition effects, and animations are not included when saving as JPEG. However, you can select a LitePort slideshow transition effect by changing the Effect in the LitePort menu.
44 Troubleshooting LitePort • If images load slowly: Make sure you are using a newer USB 2.0- compatible (high speed) USB flash drive. Larger image file sizes may also slow down the player; to reduce file size, use an image editing program on your computer to resize images smaller; for the best balance between image quality and speed, resize images to be 1024 pixels wide. • If no images are found, or some images are not shown, or you only see folder thumbnails but no images: Make sure that images are JPEG file type (file extensions .JPEG and .JPG); other file types are not supported and will be ignored. • If you see a blank screen, or a logo, or the wrong input source (computer, video, etc.) instead of your images: Keep pressing the Source button on the keypad or remote until the LitePort message is displayed (if you still dont see any images, make sure the USB flash drive is correctly and completely plugged into the projectors LitePort connector). • If nothing happens when you connect your USB flash drive, and you cannot select the LitePort input source as described above: Check the format of your USB storage device. LitePort only supports USB storage devices formatted as FAT32. Devices formatted as NTFS, and non- storage devices (such as cameras) are not supported. • If images saved by PowerPoint are low quality: Make sure to do step 3 when following the steps in the Displaying PowerPoint Slides section above.
45 Maintenance Cleaning the lens 1Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner to a soft, dry cloth. • Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner, and don’t apply the cleaner directly to the lens. Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals might scratch the lens. 2Lightly wipe the cleaning cloth over the lens in a circular motion. WARNINGS: • Turn the projector off and unplug power cord before cleaning any part of the projector. • Do not open any cover on the projector, except the lamp cover. • Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening and removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage and other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
46 Replacing the projection lamp The Lamp Hours timer in the Projector Info menu counts the number of hours the lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the lamp life expires, the message “Replace lamp” appears on the screen at startup. •NOTE: Be sure to use the InFocus lamp module designed for this projector. You can order new lamps from www.infocus.com (in select areas), your retailer or your dealer. Only genuine InFocus lamps are tested for use in this projector. Use of non InFocus lamps may cause electrical shock and fire, and may void the projector warranty. InFocus is not liable for the performance, safety or certification of any other lamps. WARNINGS: • The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp may fail prematurely, or it may rupture with a popping sound if jolted, scratched, or handled while hot. The risk of lamp failure or rupture also increases as the lamp age increases; please replace the lamp when you see the “Replace Lamp” message. • To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before you replace the lamp. • Unplug the power cord before replacing the lamp. • Do not drop the lamp module. The glass may shatter and cause injury. • Do not touch the glass surface of the lamp module. Fingerprints can obscure projection sharpness and may cause the glass to shatter. • Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely event that the lamp ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated. The lamp module is designed to contain most of these fragments, but use caution when removing it. • Before replacing a ruptured lamp, clean the lamp compartment and dispose of cleaning materials. Wash hands after lamp replacement. • When replacing the lamp while the projector is ceiling-mounted, wear protective eyewear to prevent eye injury. • Hg – Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance with local disposal laws. See www.lamprecycle.org. 1Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord. 2Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly. 3Remove the lamp door by: (a) removing the screw (labeled “1”) on the side of the lamp door, (b) turning the lamp cover knob (labeled “2”) counterclockwise to push up the lamp cover, and (c) lifting the door off. turn off and unplug projectorwait 60 minutes a bc
