PROJECTION LENS 
Available in three versions: standard throw range (1.85:1 to 2.40:1), short throw range 
(1.56:1 to 1.86:1) and long throw range (2.40:1 to 4.00:1).
IR SENSORS  
Two sensors on the front of the projector receive infrared signals from the remote 
control unit. 
FOCUS RING 
Rotate this to focus the projected image. 
ZOOM CONTROL / LENS LOCK 
Move this from side to side to change the projected image size. To lock the position of 
the lens, tighten the knob with a flat-blade screwdriver. 
REAR DOOR 
Open this door to access the lamp compartment, input panel and system keypad (refer 
to 
X-200i Rear Panel on page 7). 
HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL LENS SHIFT CONTROLS 
To use the lens shift controls, first ensure that the lens lock is not engaged. Then, insert 
the included 5.0-mm Hex wrench into the opening and turn it as needed to shift the 
lens in the desired direction (refer to Lens Adjustments on page 37).  
EXHAUST VENTS 
Warm air exits the projector through these vents. Ensure that they are not blocked. 
INTAKE VENT 
Internal fans draw cool air into the projector through this vent. 
Do not attempt any lens adjustments when the lens lock is 
engaged. Doing so may cause damage to the zoom or lens shift 
mechanisms.Caution

menu item or confirm a 
changed setting.
4.UP ()  
Use this button to move the 
cursor left in the OSD.

8.DOWN ()  
Use this button to move the cursor down in the OSD.
9.ISSUE LED (Red) 
Indicates various error conditions, as follows: 
– Flashes once to indicate a lamp problem (unable to strike, end of life); user 
   intervention likely to fix problem.  
– Flashes twice in quick succession to indicate that the lamp door is open.  
– Flashes four times in quick succession to indicate an “over temperature” condition; 
   user intervention (clear vents, turn on AC) may fix problem.  
– Lights solid to indicate an error that requires servicing (fan fail, Power-on self-test fail 
   etc.).  
– During normal operation, this LED is off.
10.POWER LED (Blue) 
– Lights solid to indicate that the projector is in standby mode, ready to start. 
– Flashes (one half-second on/one half-second off) for approximately 90 seconds 
   after the system is turned on (warm-up) or turned off (cool-down). 
– During normal operation, this LED is off.

X-200i Active 3D 
Emitter
The Active 3D Emitter, shown below, receives a left/right synchronization signal from the 
projector and transmits it to the Active 3D Glasses worn by the viewers. This signal 
precisely controls when left and right fields are visible through the glasses. 
The Active 3D Emitter has the following 
functional components: 
1.LED Indicators 
Five (5), multi-colored LEDs indicate 
modes of operation. During normal 
operation, all five LEDs are off. 
2.Joystick 
Use this to enable various modes and 
change settings. 
3.USB Port 
A USB “Micro B“ port for connecting 
to a PC to perform software upgrades.
4.3D SYNC IN 
Connect the 3D SYNC output from 
the projector (see 
Figure 2-2) to this 
input, using the supplied cable.
For more information configuring the emitter to work with the 3D glasses, refer to Using 
the 3D Glasses on page 73.

Remote Control
To install batteries in the remote control:
1. Slide the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow to remove it.
2. Install two AA batteries with the correct polarity.
3. Replace the cover. 
Notes on Batteries Make sure that the battery polarities are correct when installing the batteries.
 Do not mix an old battery with a new one or different types of batteries.
 If you will not use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to avoid 
damage from battery leakage.
 Do not expose batteries to excessive heat such as from sunshine, fire or the like. 
Notes on Remote Control 
Operation
 In most situations, you can simply point the remote control at the screen which will 
reflect the IR signal from the remote back toward the IR receiver on the projector. In 
some cases, however, ambient conditions may prevent this. If so, point the remote 
control at the projector and try again.
 If the effective range of the remote control decreases, or it stops working, replace the 
batteries with new ones.
 The remote control may fail to operate if the infrared remote sensor is exposed to bright 
sunlight or fluorescent lighting.
 During 3D operation, the remote control response may be adversely affected by 
interference from the Active
 3D Emitter. It may help to point the remote directly at the 
projector during 3D operation. In some cases, it may be better to use the projector 
keypad when viewing 3D content.
