ix Clearance for Installing the Projector Allow ample clearance between the projector and its surroundings as shown below. The high temperature exhaust coming out of the device may be sucked into the device again. Avoid installing the projector in a place where air movement from the HVAC is directed at the projector. Heated air from the HVAC can be taken in by the projector's intake vent. If this happens, the temperature inside the projector will rise too high causing the over-temperature protector to automatically turn off the projectors power. • Before setting the projector in portrait orientation, please read page 140, Portrait projection (vertical orientation). Example 1 – If there are walls on both sides of the projector. 30 cm/11.8" or greater 30 cm/11.8" or g reater Intake v ent Intake v ent NOTE: The drawing shows the proper clearance required for the front, back, and\ top of the projector. Example 2 – If there is a wall behind the projector. (1) For floor installation: 70 cm/27.6" or greater Lens Exhaust v ent NOTE: The drawing shows the proper clearance required for the back, right, lef\ t, and top of the projector. (2) For ceiling mounting: 30 cm/12" or greater 70 cm/27.6" or g reater Lens NOTE: 1. The drawing shows the proper clearance required for the front, right, le\ ft, back, and bottom of the projector. 2. If suspending the projector within the range of 30 cm/12 inches away fro\ m the ceiling, allow ample clearance for all four sides and the under the projector. Important Information

2 ❷ Introduction to the Projector This section introduces you to your new projector and describes the features and controls. Congratulations on Your Purchase of the Projector This projector is one of the very best projectors av ailable today . The projector enables you to project precise images up to 500 inches across (measured diagonally) from your PC or Mac computer (desktop or notebook), VCR, Blu-ra y player, or document camera. You can use the projector on a tabletop or cart, you can use the projector to project images from behind the screen, and the projector can be permanently mounted on a ceiling*1. The remote control can be used wirelessly. *1 Do not attempt to mount the projector on a ceiling yourself. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes. Please consult y our dealer f or more inf ormation. General • Three-chips DLP projector with high resolution and high brightness Realized to project the image in the resolution 1920 × 1080 pixels (Full HD), the aspect ratio in 16:9, and the brightness in 12000 lm. Able to project Full HD image in Nativ e resolution. • Superior dust-proof structure Adapted the cycle cooling system for cooling down the optical parts . By this system, air in the light source is cooled down and circulated. As the result, the optical parts are not exposed to the open air and enable to keep brightness without contamination by dust. * Can not prevent contamination by dust completely. Light source · Brightness • A long-life laser diode is equipped in the light module The product can be operated at low cost because the laser light source can be used for a long time without requir- ing replacement or maintenance. Moreover, if the light module life optimizing [LONG LIFE] mode is selected, light module life can be extended. • Brightness can be adjusted within a wide range Unlike with ordinary light sources, the brightness can be adjusted from 30 to 100% in 1% increments. • [CONSTANT BRIGHTNESS] mode Brightness normally decreases with use, but by selecting [CONSTANT BRIGHTNESS] mode, sensors inside the projector detect and automatically adjust the output, thereby maintaining constant brightness throughout the life of the light module. However, if brightness output is set at the maximum, brightness will decrease with use. Installation • Wide range of optional lenses selectable according to the place of installation This projector supports 6 types of optional lenses, providing a selection of lenses adapted to a var iety of places of installation and projection methods. No lens is mounted at shipping from the factory. Contact your dealer for purchasing and replacing these optional lenses sold separately. • Tilt-free, portrait pr ojection This projector can be set to any angle within a vertical 360° range. It can also rotate the picture 90° into portr ait orientation, how ever, it cannot be installed with right or left slant besides the portrait projection. • Power lens control for quick and easy adjustment By using buttons on the projector or the remote control, zoom, focus, and position (lens shift) can be adjusted. 1. Introduction
3 Videos • Wide range of input/output terminals (HDMI, DisplayPort, HDBaseT , BNC, etc.) The projector is equipped with a variety of input/output terminals: HDMI, DisplayP ort, HDBaseT, BNC (5-core), computer (analog), etc. The projector’s HDMI input/output terminals and DisplayPort input terminal support HDCP. HDBaseT, promoted and advanced by the HDBaseT Alliance, is a connection standard for home appliances. • Slot for optional board This projector has a slot for optional boards (sold separately). • Simultaneous display of 2 images (PIP/PICTURE BY PICTURE) Two images can be projected simultaneously with a single projector. There are two types of layouts for the two images: “picture-in-picture” (PIP) in which a sub-picture is display ed on the main picture, and “picture-by-picture” (PICTURE BY PICTURE) in which the main and sub pictures are displayed next to each other. • Multi-screen projection using multiple projectors This projector is equipped with multiple HDMI input & output terminals that can connect multiple projectors in a daisy chain. A high quality picture is achieved by dividing and projecting high resolution videos among the var ious projectors. Furthermore, the boundaries of the screens are smoothed using an edge blending function. • Seamless switch function for smoother screen changes when switching the signal When the input connector is switched, the image displayed before switching is held so that that the new image can be switched to without a break due to absence of a signal. • Supports HDMI 3D format This projector can be used to watch videos in 3D using commercially-av ailable active shutter-type 3D ey ewear and 3D emitters that support Xpand 3D. Network • Supported by wired LAN HDBaseT/Ethernet Port Video can be transmitted from a computer equipped with a RF-45 port that is connected to a wired LAN to the projector, and the projector can also be controlled from the computer. • CRESTRON ROOMVIEW compatible This projector supports CRESTRON ROOMVIEW ,allowing multiple devices connected to the networ k to be man- aged from a computer or controller. Energy-saving • “LIGHT MODE” for lo w po wer consumption and “Carbon Meter” displa y The projector is equipped with an “LIGHT MODE” for reducing power consumption during use. Further more, the power-saving effect when the LIGHT MODE is set is converted into the amount of reductions of CO2 emissions and this is indicated on the confirmation message displayed when the pow er is turned off and at “Infor mation” on the on-screen menu (CARBON METER). 1.
