2 Connecting Your Com\futer/Connect\uing the Power Cord
1.	 Connect	your	co\fputer	to	the	projector.
 This  se\ftio\b  will  show  you  a  basi\f  \fo\b\be\ftio\b  to  a  \fomputer.  For  i\bformatio\b  about  other  \fo\b\be\ftio\bs,  see  "2

(mi\bi D-Sub 15 Pi\b). Tur\b two thumb s\frews of both \fo\b\be\ftors to fix the \fomputer \fable (VGA).
2.	 Connect	the	supplied	power	cord	to	the	projector.
  First \fo\b\be\ft the supplied power \ford’s three-pi\b plug to the AC IN of the proje\ftor, a\bd the\b \fo\b\be\ft the other 
plug of the supplie\ed power \ford i\b the wall outlet.
  The proje\ftor’s Power i\bdi\fator will light ora\bge* (sta\bdby mode).
  The Status i\bdi\fator will also light g\eree\b*.
  *   This will apply for both i\bdi\fators whe\b [NORMAL] is sele\fted for [STANDBY MODE]. See the Power I\bdi\fator

TIP: 
• When  the  message  “PROJECTOR  IS  LOCKED!  ENTER  YOUR 
PASSWORD.”  is  displayed,  it  means  that  the  [SECURITY] 
feature is turned \y\bn. (→ page 37)
•  When  the  ECO  message  is  displayed,  it  means  that  [ON]  is 
selected f\br [ECO M\yESSAGE]. (→ page 99)
•  Pressing butt\bns such as P\bwer butt\bn and Menu butt\bn will 
make s\bund. T\b turn \bff the beep s\bund, select [OFF] f\br [BEEP] 
fr\bm the menu. (→ page 106)
  After you tur\b o\b your proje\ftor, e\bsure that the \fomputer

When	 you	fi\fst	tu\fn	 on	the	 p\fojecto\f,	 you	will	get	 the	Sta\ftup	 menu.	This	 menu	 gives	you	the	oppo\ftunity	 to	select	 one	
o\b	the	17	menu	languages.
T\f select a menu language, f\fll\fw these steps:

NOTE: 
•  Turning  the  p\bwer  back  \bn  directly  after  it  is  turned  \bff  (by  direct  p\bwer  \bff)  while  an  image  is  being  pr\bjected  can  result  in 
malfuncti\bn. Be sur\ye t\b wait at least \y1 sec\bnd bef\bre tur\yning the p\bwer back \y\bn.
•  Keep the lens cap \bf\yf the lens while t\yhe pr\bject\br’s p\bwer is \bn.
  If the lens cap is \y\bn, it c\buld be war\yped due t\b high temp\yerature.
•  If \bne \bf the f\bll\bw\ying things happens, \ythe pr\bject\br will n\y\bt turn \bn.
- If the internal temperature \bf the pr\bject\br is t\b\b high, the pr\bject\br detects abn\brmal high temperature. In this c\bnditi\bn the 
pr\bject\br will n\bt turn \bn t\b pr\btect the internal system. If this happens, wait f\br the pr\bject\br’s internal c\bmp\bnents t\b c\b\bl 
d\bwn.
-  When the lamp reach\yes its end \bf usabl\ye life, the pr\bject\y\br will n\bt turn \bn.\y If this happens, r\yeplace the lamp.
-  If the Status indicat\br lights \brange with the P\bwer butt\bn pressed, it means that the [CONTROL PANEL LOCK] is turned \bn. 
Cancel the l\bck by \yturning it \bff. (→ page 103)
-  If the lamp fails t\b light, and if the Status indicat\br flashes \bn and \bff in a cycle \bf six times, wait a full minute and then turn \bn 
the p\bwer.
•  While the P\bwer ind\yicat\br is blinking \yblue in sh\brt cycle\ys, the p\bwer cann\bt be turned \bff \yby using the P\bwer b\yutt\bn.
•  Immediately after turning \bn the pr\bject\br, screen flicker may \bccur. This is n\brmal. Wait 3 t\b 5 minutes until the lamp lighting is 
stabilized.
•  When the pr\bject\br i\ys turned \bn, it may\y take s\bme time bef\y\bre the lamp light b\yec\bmes bright.
•  If y\bu turn \bn the pr\bject\br immediately after the lamp is turned \bff \br when the temperature is high, the fans run with\but display-
ing an image f\br s\bm\ye time and then th\ye pr\bject\br will dis\yplay the image.
