8. Using Optional Lenses
Five  optional  lenses  are  available  for  the  NP3150/NP2150/NP1150/NP3151W.  See  the  information  described  on 
this page to buy the appropriate lens for your screen size and throw distance. See page 130 for installing the lens.

 Lens Shift Adjustable Range
The top right diagram shows the location of the image position in the lens. The lens can be shifted within the shad-
ed area as shown using the normal projection position as a starting point.
The projector has a lens shift feature that allows you to move the image vertically or horizontally.
NOTE: Lens shift is not available with the NP01FL optional lens. The NP0\
1FL should be used only for "zero degree" applications.

2. Pull out the existing lens slowly.
Remove the existing lens from the projector.
1.  Rotate  the  lens  counterclockwise  while  strongly  pushing  the 
LENS RELEASE button all the way in.
The existing lens will be disengaged.
NOTE: If the lens cannot be removed even by using the LENS RELEASE but-
ton, the anti-theft screw for lens may be used to secure the lens. 
If such is the case, remove the anti-theft screw first. (→ page 131)

 Replacing with Optional Lens
CAUTION
•  Do not give a shock or excessive load to the projector or the lens components as the projector and lens compo-
nents contain precision parts.
•  When  shipping  the  projector  with  the  optional  lens,  remove  the  optional  lens  before  shipping  the  projector. The 
lens and the lens shift mechanism may encounter damage caused by improper handling during transportation.
•  Before removing or installing the lens, be sure to turn off the projector, wait until the cooling fans stop, and turn 
off the main power switch.
•  Do not touch the lens surface when removing or installing the lens.
•  Keep fingerprints, dust or oil off the lens surface. Do not scratch the lens surface.
•  Work on a level surface with a soft cloth under it to avoid scratching.
•  If you remove and store the lens, attach the lens cap to the projector to keep off dust and dirt.
•  Please  heed  the  following  information  if  you  own  two  or  more  NP3150/NP2150/NP1150/NP3151W  projectors 
and may interchange the standard lenses.
  When  replacing  the  standard  lens  (with  an  optional  lens)  and  then  re-installing  the  standard  lens  back  into  the 
projector, the standard lens must go back to its original projector from which it was removed.
  If you remove the standard lens from one NP3150/NP2150/NP1150/NP3151W projector and re-install it into an
-
other NP3150/NP2150/NP1150/NP3151W projector, performance may be compromised.
  Be sure to use the standard lens in combination with its original factory-adjusted projector.

Over-Temperature protection
If  the  temperature  inside  the  projector  rises  too  high,  the  over-temperature  protector  will  automatically  turn  off  the  lamp  with  the STATUS indicator blinking (2-cycle On and Off.)Should this happen, do the following:
•  Unplug the power cable after the cooling fans stop.
•  Move the projector to a cooler location if the room where you are presenting is particularly too warm.
•  Clean the ventilation holes if they are clogged with dust.
•  Wait about 60 minutes until the inside of the projector becomes cool enough.

If there is no picture, or the picture is not displayed correctly.
• Power on process for the projector and the PC.
  Be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning on 
the power to the notebook PC.
In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before 
being powered up.
NOTE: You can check the horizontal frequency of the current signal in the projector’s menu [SOURCE(2)] under Information.  
If it reads “0kHz”, this means there is no signal being output fro\
m the computer. See page 118 or go to next step.
•  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  projec
-
tor.  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.
•  Non-standard signal output from the computer
  If  the  output  signal  from  a  notebook  PC  is  not  an  industry  standard,  the  projected  image  may  not  be  displayed 
correctly.  Should  this  happen,  deactivate  the  notebook  PC’s  LCD  screen  when  the  projector  display  is  in  use. 
Each notebook PC has a different way of deactivate/reactivate the local LCD screens as described in the previ-
ous step. Refer to your computer’s documentation for detailed information.
•  Image displayed is incorrect when using a Macintosh
  When using a Macintosh with the projector, set the DIP switch of the Mac adapter (not supplied with the projec
-
tor) according to your resolution. After setting, restart your Macintosh for the changes to take affect.
  For  setting  display  modes  other  than  those  supported  by  your  Macintosh  and  the  projector,  changing  the  DIP 
switch on a Mac adapter may bounce an image slightly or may display nothing. Should this happen, set the DIP 
switch  to  the  13”  fixed  mode  and  then  restart  your  Macintosh.  After  that,  restore  the  DIP  switches  to  a  display-
able mode and then restart the Macintosh again.
NOTE:  A  Video  Adapter  cable  manufactured  by  Apple  Inc.  is  needed  for  a  PowerBook  which  does  not  have  a  mini  D-Sub 
15-pin connector.
•  Mirroring on a PowerBook
*  When using the projector with a Macintosh PowerBook, output may not be set to 1024 x 768 unless “mirroring” 
is off on your PowerBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Macintosh computer for mirroring.
•  Folders or icons are hidden on the Macintosh screen
  Folders or icons may not be seen on the screen. Should this happen, select [View] 
→ [Arrange] from the Apple 
menu and arrange icons.
