    First-time projector use with Windows 98The first time you connect a computer running Windows 98 to the projector, 
    the computer recognizes the projector as “new hardware” and the Add 
    New Hardware Wizard appears. Follow these instructions to use the Wiz-
    ard to load the correct driver (which was installed with your Windows 
    operating system).
    If you are running Windows 2000, Windows ME, or Window XP, skip these 
    steps and go to “Adjusting the image” on page 13.aClick Next to begin searching for the driver.bMake sure “Search for the best driver” is selected, then click Next.cUncheck any checked boxes, then click Next. Windows automatically 
    locates the driver. If this driver has been removed, reload the driver using 
    your Windows operating system CD.dWhen Windows finds the driver, you are ready to install it. Click Next.

    Connecting a video device Standard video connectionsPlug the audio/video (A/V) cable’s yellow connector into the video-out 
    connector on the video device. Plug the other yellow connector into the yel-
    low Video 3 connector on the projector. Plug a white connector into the left 
    audio out connector on the video device and plug a red connector into the 
    right audio out connector on the video device. Plug the remaining white 
    connector into the left audio in connector on the projector (to the right of the 
    yellow Video 3 connector), and plug the red connector into the right audio 
    in connector on the projector.
    Connect the black power cable to the connector on the back of the projector 
    and to your electrical outlet. NOTE: Always use the power cable that 
    shipped with the projector.Optional video connectionsIf the video device uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, plug an 
    S-video cable (sold separately) into the S-video connector on the video 
    device and into the Video 2 connector on the projector. Use the A/V cable’s 
    audio connectors as described directly above (the yellow connectors on the 
    A/V cable are not used).
    If the video device uses component cable connectors (sold separately), plug 
    the cable’s green connectors into the green component-out connector on the 
    video device and into the Video 1 green component connector (labeled “Y”) 
    on the projector. Plug the component cable’s blue connectors into the blue 
    component-out connector on the video device and into the blue component 
    connector (labeled “Pb”) on the projector. Plug the component cable’s red 
    connectors into the red component-out connector on the video device and 
    into the red component connector (labeled “Pr”) on the projector. Use the 
    A/V cable’s audio connectors as described above (the yellow connectors on 
    the A/V cable are not used). NOTE: The component connectors can be used 
    for HDTV sources (480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i formats).

    BNC connectors of the BNC cable to the appropriate Computer 3 connec-
    tors on the projector. Connect the other end to the video port on your video 
    device. Use the A/V cable’s audio connectors as described on the previous 
    page (the yellow connectors on the A/V cable are not used). 
    When 4 BNCs are connected, the projector handles a composite synch on H. 
    When 3 BNCs are connected, the projector handles a composite synch on G.
    NOTE: The BNC connectors can be used for HDTV sources (480i, 480p,

    Shutting down the projectorThe projector automatically blanks the screen after no active source is 
    detected for 30 minutes. This blank screen helps preserve the life of the pro-
    jector. The image returns when an active source is detected or a remote or 
    keypad button is pressed.
    Screen Save
    You can make the blank screen appear after five minutes by turning on 
    Screen Save in the Settings>System menu. See page 36.
    Pow e r  S av e
    The projector also has a Power Save feature that automatically turns the 
    lamp off after no signals are detected for 20 minutes. After 10 additional 
    minutes with no signal, the projector powers down. If an active signal is 
    received before the projector powers down, the image is displayed. You 
    must press the Power button to display an image after 30 minutes have 
    passed. When Power Save is enabled, Screen Save is disabled. See page 36.
    Turning off the projector
    To turn off the projector, press the power button and verify that you want to 
    turn the projector off by pressing the power button again within 3 seconds. 
    You can cancel the shutdown by not pressing the power button a second 
    time. The lamp turns off and the LED blinks green for over 1 minute while 
    the fans continue to run to cool the lamp. When the lamp has cooled, the 
    LED lights green and the fans stop. Press the power switch on the back of 
    the projector and unplug the power cable to completely power off the pro-
    jector.
    Troubleshooting your setupIf your image appears correctly on the screen, skip to the next section. If it 
    does not, troubleshoot the setup. The LED on top of the projector indicates 
    the state of the projector and can help you troubleshoot. See “LED Behav-
    ior” on page 46. for information on LED behavior and what it means.
    The following tables show common problems. In some cases, more than one 
    possible solution is provided. Try the solutions in the order they are pre-
    sented. When the problem is solved, you can skip the additional solutions.
