Getting Started
Removing/attaching the projection lens
Perform the following steps when removing/attaching the standard zoom lens or the optional lens.
Move the lens to the home position before replacing or removing the lens\
. (
 page 36)
Attention  
z
Replace the projection lens after turning off the power of the projector. 
 
z
Do not touch the lens signal receiver. Dust or dirt may cause defective contact. 
 
z
Do not touch the lens surface with your bare hand s. 
 
z
B

efore attaching the projection lens, remove the dust sponge attached to \
the projector and the lens cover 
attached to the projection lens.
 
z
For the ultra short-focus zoom lens (ET-DLE080), the procedure for removing/attaching the lens is different. 
For details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with ET-DLE080.
Removing the projection lens
1)  Turn the projection lens cover counterclockwise and remove.

2)  Turn the projection lens clockwise until it clicks. 
3)  Attach the projection lens cover aligning the marking (groove *1) to t\
he tip of the arrow on the projector (*2), and then turn and secure the projection l\
ens cover until 
the *1 groove aligns with the *3 
 marking.

							Connections
30 - ENGLISH
Getting Started
Before connecting to the projector
 
z
Read carefully the instruction manual for the device to be connected.
 
z
Turning off the power switch of the devices before connecting cables.
 
z
If any connection cable is not supplied with the device, or if no optional cable is available for the connection \
of 
the device, prepare a necessary system connection cable to suit the devi\
ce.
 
z
Video signals containing too much jitter may cause the images on the screen to randomly wobble or wafture. In 
t

his case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be connected.
 
z
The projector accepts the following signals: VIDEO, S-VIDEO, analog RGB (with TTL sync. Level) and digital 
signal.
 
z
Some computer models are not compatible with the projector.
 
z
Use a compensator when you connect each of equipment to the projector using long cables. Otherwise the 
i

mage may not be output properly.
