    Introduction
    Usage Guidelines
     Do not look directly into the projection lens when the lamp is 
    turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes.
     Do not block the grills on the projector. Restricting the air flow 
    can cause it to overheat and turn off. If this happens, you must 
    wait a minute before attempting to turn it back on.
     Handle the projector as you would any product with glass 
    components. Be especially careful not to drop it.
     Avoid leaving the projector in direct sunlight or extreme cold 
    for extended periods of time. If this happens, allow it to reach 
    room temperature before use.
    Transport the projector in a vendor-approved hard or soft case. 
    Part numbers for these cases are listed on page 45.

    SETTING UP THE PROJECTOR
    1Place the projector on a flat surface.
    The projector must be within 10 feet (3 m) of your power 
    source and within 6 feet (1.8 m) of your computer.
    If you want to project from behind a translucent screen, set 
    up the projector behind your screen. See “Rear” on page 33 
    to reverse the image.
    2Position the projector the desired distance from the screen.
    The distance from the lens of the projector to the screen and 
    the zoom setting determine the size of the projected image. 
    Figure 3 and Table 1 show projected image sizes.

    Powering up the Projector and Adjusting the Image
    NOTE: Always use the power cord 
    that shipped with the projector.
    1Remove the lens cap.
    2Plug the power cord into the side of the projector, then plug it 
    into your electrical outlet. A surge-protected power strip is 
    recommended.
    The Ready indicator on top of the projector lights green, 
    indicating the projector is ready to be turned on, and the 
    Lamp indicator lights red.
    3Press the 
    power button on the top of the projector or on the 
    remote.
    NOTE: The first time you connect 
    your computer to the projector, the 
    computer may display a message 
    stating that new hardware was 
    found. The Add New Hardware 
    Wizard may appear. Use the Wiz-
    ard to load the correct driver (the 
    computer considers the projector a 
    Plug and Play Monitor). 
    The fans start to run, the Lamp indicator dims, and the 
    Preparation screen appears. This screen counts down from 
    30 seconds, then the image from the active source appears.
    4If you connected a video player, turn it on.
    The video image should display on the projection screen. If 
    a computer source is active, press the 
    source button on the 
    keypad (page 16) or the 
    video button on the remote to dis-
    play your video image. 
    Use the volume buttons on the remote to adjust the volume. 
    The volume dialog box, showing the current volume level 
    and mute status, appears for 4 seconds.

    Setting up the Projector
    5Turn on your computer. 
    NOTE: With some computers,
    the order in which you power up
    the equipment is very important.
    Most computers should be turned
    on last, after all other peripherals
    have been turned on. Refer to your
    computer’s documentation to
    determine the correct order.
    The computer image should display on the projection 
    screen. If a video source is active, press the 
    source button on 
    the keypad or the 
    computer button on the remote to display 
    your computer ’s image. Make sure your laptop’s external 
    video port is activated; see “Portable and Laptop Activation 
    Chart” on page 46 for details.
    If necessary, make adjustments to the image using the pro-
    jector ’s on-screen menus. To open the menus, press the 
    menu button on the keypad or remote, then select the 
    desired menu. For more information about the menus, see 
    page 17.
    Turning Off the Projector
    If you want to turn off the image for a short period of time, press 
    the 
    Blank button on the remote. This blanks the screen, but keeps 
    the projector running. To exit Blank mode, press the 
    Blank button 
    again or any other function button.
    NOTE: To maximize lamp life,
    allow the projector to run for at
    least five minutes before turning
    it off.
    To turn off the projector, press the Pow e r button. The message 
    “Power off?” appears on the screen. Press the 
    Po w e r button again 
    to turn the projector off. The Lamp indicator lights, and the 
    Ready indicator dims. The fans run for 90 seconds after the pro-
    jector is turned off. When the projector has cooled, the Ready 
    indicator lights green, indicating you can turn the projector back 
    on if desired.

    USING THE PROJECTOR
    This section describes how to use and make adjustments to the 
    projector. It also provides a reference to the keypad and remote 
    buttons and the options available from the on-screen menus.
    Adjusting the Image
    To focus the image, rotate the focus ring (Figure 7) until the image 
    is clear. To zoom the image, rotate the zoom ring. This adjusts the 
    image size without affecting focus. Turn the ring in the “Wide” 
    direction to make the image larger and in the “Tele” direction to 
    make the image smaller.
    FIGURE 7
    Focus ring and zoom ring
    The projector is equipped with self-locking, quick-release eleva-
    tor feet (Figure 8).
    To raise the projector:
    1Lift the front of the projector and lift the feet lock latches on 
    both sides of the projector (Figure 8).
    2Raise the projector to the height you want, then release the 
    latches to lock the elevator feet into position. If necessary, turn 
    the feet to fine tune the position and tilt.
