1. Introduction
 Introduction to the Projector
This	section	introduces	you	to	the	NP3200/NP2200/NP1200	projector	and	describes	key	features	and	controls.
Congratulations on Your Purchase of the Projector
The	NP3200/NP2200/NP1200	 is	a	sophisticated	 XGA	projector	 that	produces	 an	enhanced	 display.	With	 the	
NP3200/NP2200/NP1200	 you	will	be	able	 to	project	 images	 up	to	500"	 (measured	 diagonally).	Enjoy	 crisp	and	
sharp	 large	screen	 display	 from	your	PC	or	Macintosh	 computer,	DVD	player,	 VCR,	satellite	 hookup,	 HDTV	source. 	
The	NP3200/NP2200/NP1200	 provides	for	enhanced	 security	options	to	help	 deter	 projector	 theft	and	provides	 for	
projector	 control	through	 the	PC	control	 port	(D-Sub	 9	Pin)	 and	LAN	 support. 	With	 input	 and	output	 flexibility,	 long	
lamp	life	and	 a	full	 function	 remote,	the	NP3200/NP2200/NP1200	 lets	you	 enjoy	 larger	 than	life	viewing	 from	a	com-
pact	and	easy	to	setup	and	use	projector.
Features you’ll enjoy :
•	 LCD	projector	with	high	resolution	and	high	brightness
	 High	resolution	display	-	up	to	UXGA	compatible,	XGA	native	resolution. 	
•	 Extensive	optional	lens
	 One	standard	lens	and	five	types	of	optional	lenses	are	available
•	 Lens	shift	mechanism	offers	installation	flexibility
	 Manual	lens	shift	that	can	be	adjusted	by	turning	dials	on	the	top	of	the	projector
•	 Quick	start	&	Quick	Power	Off
	 Five	seconds*	after	turning	on	the	power,	the	projector	is	ready	to	display	PC	or	video	images. 	
	 *		The	quick	start	time	is	only	when	[STANDBY	MODE]	is	set	to	[NORMAL]	in	the	on-screen	message. 	The	pro-
jector	can	be	put	away	immediately	after	the	projector	is	powered	down.
•	 Direct	Power	Off
	 The	projector	has	a	feature	called	 “Direct	Power	Off ”.	This	feature	allows	the	projector	to	be	turned	off	(even	
when	projecting	an	image)	by	using	the	Main	Power	Switch	or	disconnecting	the	AC	power	supply.
	 To	turn	off	the	AC	power	supply	when	the	projector	is	powered	on,	use	a	power	strip	equipped	with	a	switch	and	
a	breaker.
NOTE: Before using Direct Power Off, be sure to allow at least 20 minute\
s immediately after turning on the projector and 
starting to display an image.
•	 Auto	Power	On, 	and	Auto	Power	Off	functions
	 The	AUTO	POWER	 ON(AC),	 AUTO	POWER	 ON(COMP1/2),	 AUTO	POWER	 OFF,	and	OFF	 TIMER	 features	
eliminate	the	need	to	always	use	the	POWER	button	on	the	remote	control	or	projector	cabinet. 	
•	 Less	than	1W	in	standby	condition	with	energy	saving	technology
	 Selecting	[POWER-SAVING]	 for	[STANDBY	 MODE]	from	the	menu	 can	put	the	projector	 in	power-saving	 mode	
that	consumes	only	0.4W	(100-130V	AC)/0.5W	(200-240V	AC).
•	 Carbon	Meter
	 This	feature	will	show	 energy-saving	 effect	in	terms	 of	CO2	emission	 reduction	 (kg)	when	 the	projector’s	 [ECO	
MODE]	is	set	to	[ON].
	 The	amount	 of	CO2	emission	 reduction	 will	be	displayed	 in	the	 confirmation	 message	at	the	 time	 of	power-off	
and	in	the	INFO	of	the	on-screen	menu.
•	 Integrated	RJ-45	connector	for	wired	networking	capability
	 An	RJ-45	connector	is	equipped	as	standard	feature. 	
•	 The	projector	can	be	controlled	from	a	computer	over	a	LAN
	 Connecting	the 	projector 	to 	a 	network 	allows 	the 	Alert 	Mail 	setting 		and 	the 	projector 	control 	from	 a	computer 	via 	
the	network.
	 To	 do	so,	 you	 must	 have	an	exclusive	 application	 “PC	Control	 Utility	Pro4”	installed	 on	your	 computer	 from	the	
supplied	NEC	Projector	CD-ROM.

•	 A	variety	of	input	ports	and	a	comprehensive	array	of	system	control	interfaces
	 This	projector	supports	input	signals	on	the	following	ports:	BNC,	DVI-D,	15pin	D-Sub,	composite	and	S-video.
•	 Wall	Color	Correction
	 Built-in	Wall	Color	Correction	presets	provide	for	adaptive	color	correction	when	projecting	onto	non-white	
screen	material	(or	a	wall).
•	 Six	picture	preset	modes	for	user	adjustable	picture	and	color	settings
	 Each	picture	preset	mode	can	be	customized	and	memorized	according	to	your	preference.
•	 Preventing	unauthorized	use	of	the	projector
	 Enhanced	smart	security	settings	for	keyword	protection,	cabinet	control	panel	lock	to	help	prevent	unauthorized 	
access,	adjustments	and	theft	deterrence.
•	 The	supplied	remote	control	allows	you	to	assign	a	CONTROL	ID	to	the	projector
	 Multiple	projectors	can	be	operated	 separately	 and	independently	 with	the	same	 single	 remote	 control	by	as-
signing	an	ID	number	to	each	projector.

 Use	 this	port	 to	connect	 your	PC	or	control	 system	
to	control	 your	projector	 via	a	ser ial	 cable.	This	
enables	 you	to	control	 the	projector	 using	ser ial	
communication	 protocol.	A	 commercially	 available	
RS232C	cross	cable	is	required	 to	use	 this	port. 	You	
can	 also	 control	 the	projector	 by	using	 PC	Control	
Utility	 Pro	4	contained	 on	the	 supplied	 NEC	Projec-
tor	CD-ROM. 	To	 do	 so	you	 must	 first	have	 PC	Con-
trol	Utility	 Pro	4	installed	 on	your	 PC	(→	page	48). 	If	
you	 are	writing	 your	own	program,	 typical	PC	control	
codes	are	on	page	96.
