Lamp/Maintenance Indicators
Lamp
nThe Lamp has a finite operating life. The lamp for this projector has a usable life of 2000 cumulative hours. This
number may differ, however, depending on the ambient conditions.
1. When the lamp is nearing the end of its operating life, the picture and color quality will deteriorate. If the lamp is
used for more than 1900 hours, the LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator will light red and ÒLAMPÓ will flash in
yellow letters on the screen when you turn the projector on to alert you that it is time to replace the lamp. In this
situation, replace the lamp (See pages 32 and 33).
Note:The lamp usage time can be checked at the On-Screen display. (See page 27.)
Caution:Once you are alerted that the lamp requires replacement, be sure to replace the lamp.
2. When the number of hours the lamp is used reaches 2000, the power automatically turns off and the projector
enters the standby condition. If you turn on the power after the lamp has been used for 2000 hours, ÒLAMPÓ will
flash on screen in red letters for five minutes and then the power will turn off.
3. If the new lamp does not light after replacement, take your projector to the nearest Authorized Sharp Industrial
LCD Products Dealer or Service Center for repair.
4. Intense light hazard. Do not attempt to look into the aperture and lens while the projector is operating.
Maintenance Indicators
nThe warning lights on the projector indicate problems inside the projector.
nThere are two warning lightsÐa TEMPERATURE indicator which warns that the
projector is too hot, and a LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator which lets you know
when to change the bulb.
nIf a problem occurs, either the TEMPERATURE indicator or the LAMP REPLACE-
MENT indicator will light up red, and the power will shut off. After turning off the
power, follow the procedures given below.
Problem
No picture and no sound.
Sound is heard but no picture
appears.
Color is faded or poor.
Picture is blurred.
Picture appears but no sound is
heard.
An unusual sound is occasionally heard
from the cabinet.
Maintenance indicator lights up.
Check
·The projector AC cord is not plugged into the AC wall outlet.
·The main power button is not pressed.
·The input is wrong. (See page 22.)
·Cables improperly connected to rear panel of the projector. (See pages 14, 15, 16 and 17.)
·Remote control batteries have run down. (See page 7.)
·The optional cable for the remote control is properly inserted.
·The main power of the remote control is not turned on.
·The remote controlÕs MOUSE/ADJUSTMENT switch is set to MOUSE.
·The usable life of the lamp has been reached. (See page 31.)
·Cables improperly connected to rear panel of the projector. (See pages 14, 15, 16 and 17.)
·The BRIGHTNESS and PICTURE adjustments are set to minimum position. (See page 23.)
·The COLOR and TINT adjustments are not correct. (See page 23.)
·Adjust the focus. (See page 9.)
·The projection distance is too long or too short to allow for proper focus. (See page 10.)
·Cables improperly connected to rear panel of the projector. (See pages 14, 15, 16 and 17.)
·Volume is set to minimum. (See pages 22.)
·If the picture is normal, the sound is due to cabinet shrinkage caused by temperature changes. This
will not affect operation or performance.
·Refer to ÒLamp/Maintenance IndicatorsÓ on page 31.

Notes:
·If the TEMPERATURE indicator comes on, solve the problem and then wait until the projector has cooled down completely
before turning the power back on.  (At least 5 minutes.)
·
When the power is turned off and then turned on again, as during a brief rest, the LAMP replacement indicator may be triggered,
preventing the power from going on. When this happens, take the power plug out of the AC outlet and put it back in again.

Lamp Replacement
The lamp in the projector has a finite service life. The lamp for this projector has a usable life of 2000 cumulative
hours. This number may differ, however, depending on the ambient conditions. The lamp requires replacement in
the situations given below.
·When the picture starts becoming dark and the color contrast deteriorates.
·After the lamp has been used for 1900 hours (at this time the LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator will light red and
ÒLAMPÓ will flash in yellow letters on the screen when the projector is turned on). The lamp usage time can be
checked at the On-Screen display. (See page 27.)
Caution:Once you are alerted that the lamp requires replacement, be sure to replace the lamp.
Purchase a replacement metal-halide lamp unit (lamp/cage module) of the current type BQC-XGNV1U//1 from your
nearest Authorized Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer. Then change the lamp by carefully following the instruc-
tions below.
If you wish, you may bring the projector to your nearest Authorized Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO U.S. CUSTOMERS:
The lamp included with this projector is backed by a 90-day parts and labor limited warranty. All service of this
projector under warranty, including lamp replacement, must be obtained through an Authorized Sharp Industrial

1. PC control
The personal computer can control the projector by connecting the two via an RS-232C cable (not supplied).
2. Communication conditions
Set the serial port settings of the computer to match that of the table below.
Signal format: Conforms to RS-232C standard.
Baud rate: 9600bps
Data length: 8 bits
Parity bit: NON
Stop bit: 1 bit
Flow control: None
3. Basic format
Commands from the computer are sent in the following order: command, parameter, and return code. After the
unit processes the command from the computer, it sends a response code to the computer.
RS-232C Terminal  Specifications
Command format
Return code (0DH) C1    C2    C3   C4    P1    P2    P3    P4

When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the OK response code for the previous
command from the unit is verified.
Note:
Using the computer control function of the unit, the liquid crystal projector conditions cannot be read to the computer.
Therefore, confirm the conditions by transmitting the display commands for each adjustment menu and checking the
conditions at the On-Screen Display. If the unit receives a command other than a menu display command, it will execute the
command without displaying the On-Screen Display.

							E-37 Our projector uses LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panels.
These very sophisticated panels contain 519,168 pixels
( ´ RGB) TFTs (Thin Film Transistors).
As with any high technology electronic equipment such as
large screen TVs, video systems and/or video cameras,
there are certain acceptable tolerances that the equip-
ment must conform to. SharpÕs acceptable tolerances
permit a total of 6 inactive TFTs, which may result in
illuminated or inactive dots on the picture screen.This will not affect the picture quality or the life
expectancy of the unit.
If you have any questions about this matter, please
call toll free 1-800-BE-SHARP (1-800-237-4277).
