Important Operating Considerations for Safety
• Refer to this guide for proper startup and shutdown procedures.
• Follow all warnings and cautions in this manual and on the projector.
• Do not block the lens with any object while the projector is being used. 
Blocking the light path can cause overheating and result in fire.
• Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 8 degrees off 
axis.
• Locate the projector at least 4 (1.2m) away from any heating or cooling 
vents.
• Do not block ventilation openings. Locate the projector in a well-
ventilated area without obstructions to intake or exhaust vents. Do not 
place the projector on a tablecloth or other soft covering that may block 
the vents.
• Do not place the projector in direct sunlight, humid, greasy or dusty 
places or in places where the projector may come into contact with 
smoke or steam.
• Do not look directly into the lens while the projector is being used.
• Do not drop the projector.
• Do not spill liquid on the projector. Spilled liquid may damage the 
projector.
• Use the power cord provided. Connect the power cord to a receptacle 
with a protective safety (earth) ground terminal. A surge-protected 
power strip is recommended.
• Do not overload wall outlets.
• When disconnecting the power cord, hold the plug, not the cord.
• Wash hands after handling the cables supplied with this product.
• The projector remote control uses batteries. Make sure the batteries’ 
polarity (+/-) is aligned correctly. Dispose of used batteries in 
accordance with local disposal laws.
• Use an InFocus approved ceiling mount kit for proper fitting, 
ventilation and installation.  The warranty does not cover any damage caused by use of non-approved ceiling mount kits or by installing in an 
improper location. 
• When the projector is ceiling mounted, wear protective eyewear to 
prevent eye injury before opening lamp door.
• The projector must be installed by a qualified professional in order to 
ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of hazards or injury. It is 
not recommended you install the projector yourself.
• Refer all service to qualified service personnel. Servicing your own 
projector can be dangerous to you and will void the warranty.
• Only use replacement parts specified by InFocus.  Unauthorized 
substitutions may result in fire, electrical shock, or injury, and may 
void the warranty
• 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. 
•Hg – Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance with local 
disposal laws. See www.lamprecycle.org.
• 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.
• In the unlikely event of a lamp rupture, particles may exit through the 
projector vents. Keep people, food, and drinks out of the keep out 
area under and around the projector, 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. For complete details of the warranty, see the Warranty Booklet.

5 volt DC output
The coaxial 6.4mm x 2.2mm jack provides a constant 5 volt, 2 amp DC 
output when the projector is on, and will also provide power when the 
projector is in standby (powered off) if Network and DisplayLink items in 
the Always-On Functions submenu are set to Yes. It is designed to provide power to an InFocus LiteShow II wireless device or InFocus DisplayLink 
Extender device.
12V Screen Trigger output
The 3.5mm mini-jack screen trigger provides a 12 volt, 0.25 amp DC output. 
It turns on when the lamp is lighted. If you connect your projection screen 
to this output using the cable that came with your screen, the screen will 
move down when the lamp is turned on and the screen will return to its

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. Here are some general 
guidelines:
• Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The 
projector (with the standard lens) must be at least 3 feet (0.9m) 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 
extension cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the 
projector within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object.
• Position the projector to 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.
• For the standard lens that comes with the projector, the image exits at a 
given angle. However, the lens shift feature makes the image offset 
variable. 
• The vertical image offset range for all the projectors is 50% - 110% 
(default 80%), and the horizontal image offset is +/-10% (default 0%). 
At 110% offset, 10% of the image height resides above the lens center in 
tabletop configuration. At 50% offset, 50% of the image height resides 
above the lens center in tabletop configuration.

Ceiling Mount
If you wish to install the projector on the ceiling:
• The projector must be installed by a qualified professional in order to 
ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of hazards or injury. It is 
not recommended you install the projector yourself.
• We strongly recommend using InFocus approved ceiling mounts for 
proper fitting, ventilation and installation.  Refer to the installation 
guide that comes with the InFocus Ceiling Mount Kit (p/n SP-CEIL-
INSTALL) for more information.  The warranty does not cover any 
damage caused by use of non-approved ceiling mount kits or by 
installing in an improper location.
• The ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the 
installation must be in accordance with any local building codes. 
Consult your dealer for more information.
• Maximum supported physical pitch is +/-8º.
• Maximum supported physical horizontal roll is +/-8º.
• Keep all adjacent surfaces 3” (76mm) from sides, front and rear and 
.87” (22mm) from the bottom of projector to preserve required airflow 
around the projector.
Cable Management
The integrated cable management system allows you to keep the cables 
organized. To use the cable management system, thread the cables into the

the monitor cable from the computer’s video port first (you can connect this 
monitor cable to the Monitor Out connector on the projector, see next page).
HDMI 1.3 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 either the HDMI 1 or HDMI 
2 connector on the projector.
To take advantage of HDMI 1.3 Deep Color (30 bit) you must have a 1.3-
compatible source.
