compatible or Macintosh computers. Use the supplied RGB cable to
connect to your computer. This also serves as a component input
connector that allows you to connect a component video output of
component equipment such as a DVD player. This connector also
supports SCART output signal. See page E-16 for more details.
2. DVI-D IN (DVI 24 Pin)
This connector can be used to accept digital signal output from a
computer or a setup box with a DVI connector. (HDCP compatible)

a low voltage trigger to the screen controller and the screen will go
up.
NOTE: To enable the SC.TRIGGER function, be sure to turn on Screen Trig-ger in Page 4 of the Setup. See page E-42.
NOTE: Screen Controllers are supplied and supported by screen manufac-tures. This option is not included with the projector.

•The infrared signal operates by line-of-sight up to a distance of about
22 feet / 7 m and within a 55°(Front) / 60°(Rear) angle of the remote
sensor on the projector cabinet.
•The projector will not respond if there are objects between the re-
mote control and the sensor, or if strong light falls on the sensor.
Weak batteries will also prevent the remote control from properly
operating the projector.
Note on Remote Control Operation:
If you press and hold the SELECT 
 button while installing new

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
This section describes how to set up your projector and how to connect video and audio sources.
Your projector is simple to set up and use. But before you get started, you must first:
z
Set up a screen and the projector.
xConnect your video equipment to the projector. See page E-13 – 17.
cConnect the supplied power cable. See page E-17.
NOTE: Ensure that the power cable and any other cables are disconnected before moving the projector. Whenmoving the projector or when it is not in use, cover the lens with the lens cap.
Setting Up the Screen and the Projector
Selecting a Location
The further your projector is from the screen or wall, the larger the image. The minimum size the
image can be is approximately 30 (0.8 m) measured diagonally when the projector is roughly 4 feet
(1.0 m) from the wall or screen. The largest the image can be is 200 (5.08 m) when the projector is
about 23 feet (7 m) from the wall or screen. Use the drawing below as a guide.

Distance Chart
Throw Distance and Screen Size
The following shows the proper relative positions of the projector and
screen. Refer to the table to determine the position of installation.
WARNING
*Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done by a quali-
fied technician. Contact your NEC dealer for more information.
*Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
•Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector falls
to the ground, you can be injured and the projector severely dam-
aged.
•Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The pro-
jector must be used at temperatures between 41˚F (5˚C) and 95˚F
(35˚C).
•Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will
harm the screen image.
•Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector so
heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the side or the front of
the projector.
Reflecting the Image
Using a mirror to reflect your projectors image enables you to enjoy a
much larger image. Contact your NEC dealer if you need a mirror. If
youre using a mirror and your image is inverted, use the MENU and
SELECT buttons on your projector cabinet or 
 buttons on your re-
mote control to correct the orientation. (See page E-41.)
NOTE: A 16:9 image is supported within the limits of the above values.
