approximately 30 inches (0.8 m) measured diagonally when the projector is roughly 51.2 inches (1.3 m) from the wall
or screen. The largest the image can be is 500 inches (12.7 m) when the projector is about 970 inches (24.6 m) from
the wall or screen. Use the drawing below as a guide.Your projector is simple to set up and use.
But before you get started, you must first:
zSet up a screen and the projector.
xConnect your computer or video equip-
ment to the projector. See pages 17 -

2. Installation and Connections
WARNING
*Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done
by a qualified 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 damaged.
•Do not use the projector where temperatures vary
greatly. The projector 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 system. If youre using a mir-
ror system and your image is inverted, use the MENU
and SELECT buttons on your projector cabinet or your
remote control to correct the orientation. See page 98.

2. Installation and Connections
 Making Connections
NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect between the projector and the notebook PC before turning on the
power to the notebook PC. In most cases signal cannot be output from RGB output unless the notebook PC is turned on after
connecting with the projector.
*If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computers screen-saver or power
management software.
Connecting Your PC or Macintosh Computer
RGB/VGA signal cable (supplied)
To mini D-Sub 15-pin connector on the projector. It is
recommended that you use a commercially available
distribution amplifier if connecting a signal cable longer
than the supplied one.
Audio cable (not supplied)
IBM PC or Compatibles (Desktop type)
or Macintosh (Desktop type)
NOTE: For older Macintosh, use
a commercially available pin
adapter (not supplied) to
connect to your Macs video
port.
IBM VGA or Compatibles (Notebook
type) or Macintosh (Notebook type)
Connecting your PC or Macintosh computer to your projector will enable you to project your computers screen image
for an impressive presentation.
To connect to a PC or Macintosh, simply:
1. Turn off the power to your projector and computer.
2. Use the supplied RGB/VGA signal cable to connect your PC or Macintosh to the projector.
3. Connect the supplied power cable. See page 26.
4. Turn on the projector and the computer.
5. If the projector goes blank after a period of inactivity, it may be caused by a screen saver installed on the computer
youve connected to the projector.
NOTE: The COMPUTER 1 IN connector
supports Plug & Play (DDC2).
Enabling the computer’s external display
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display.
Usually, the combination of the ‘Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on
or off. For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through
external display selections. 
						

							18
NOTE: The LT265/LT245 is not compatible with video decoded outputs of either the NEC ISS-6020 and ISS-6010 switchers.
NOTE: An image may not be displayed correctly when a Video or S-Video source is played back via a commercially available scan
converter.
This is because the projector will process a video signal as a computer signal at the default setting. In that case, do the following.
*When an image is displayed with the lower and upper black portion of the screen or a dark image is not displayed correctly:
Project an image to fill the screen and then press the AUTO ADJ button on the remote control or the AUTO ADJUST button on
the projector cabinet.
*When noise appears on the sides of the screen:
Use the Overscan feature to display the image correctly.
Be sure to change the Overscan to 0% before pressing the AUTO ADJ or AUTO ADJUST button, otherwise an image may be
displayed with its sides cut off.

With the LAN connection, two features are available: Projector control and Picture transmission.
Projector control feature
With the wired or wireless LAN connection, you can control (power on/off, input select, etc.) and receive information
from the projector over the network using a computer. The following two methods are available:
*Using the HTTP Server feature on the projector. See page 54.
*Using PC Control Utility 3.0 from the supplied User Supportware 2 CD-ROM.
Picture transmission feature
With the wired or wireless LAN connection, you can send images and slides from a personal computer to the projector
which then can be projected on the screen. The following two methods are available:
*Using Image Express Utility 2.0 from the supplied User Supportware 2 CD-ROM.
*Using Ulead Photo Explore 8.0 from the supplied User Supportware 2 CD-ROM.
With the USB mouse connected to the projector, you can also operate the desktop screen on your Windows PC
connected to the LAN or the wireless LAN.
* Using Desktop Control Utility 1.0 from the supplied User Supportware 2 CD-ROM.
