Projecting a Reversed Im-
age Setting up the Projector
Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with the projector’s feet flat and level to achieve
an optimal image.
• For an optimal image, position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling
directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim
the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.

turn off the devices to be connected. After making all connections, turn on the projector
and then the other devices. When connecting a computer, be sure that it is the last device to
be turned on after all the connections are made.
Be sure to read the operation manuals of the devices to be connected before making connections.
* When using the ø3.5 mm mono audio cable, the volume level will be half of
when using the ø3.5 mm stereo audio cable.
• When connecting with USB cable, you can use the remote control as a mouse for controlling cursor.
See page 33.
• See page 59 “Computer Compatibility Chart” for a list of computer signals compatible with the projec-
tor. Use with computer signals other than those listed may cause some of the functions to not work.
• A Macintosh adaptor may be required for use with some Macintosh computers. Contact your near-
est Macintosh Dealer.
•Depending on the computer you are using, an image may not be projected unless the signal
output setting of the computer is switched to the external output. Refer to the computer opera-
tion manual for switching the computer signal output settings.

Connecting to Video Equipment
The projector has a COMPUTER/COMPONENT terminal, an S-VIDEO terminal and a VIDEO ter-
minal for video input. See the illustration below to connect with the audio-visual equipment.
The image quality is highest in order of the component signal, the S-video signal and the video
signal. If your audio-visual equipment has a component output terminal, use the COMPUTER/
COMPONENT terminal (INPUT1) on the projector for video connection.

Turning the Projector On/Off
Turning the Projector on
Before performing the steps in this section,
connect any equipment that you use with
the projector. (See pages 23,24 and 25.)
Also connect the power cord to the projec-
tor. (See page 25.)
PressSON/STANDBY on the projector or
AON/STANDBY on the remote control.
• When the lamp is warming up, the Adjustment but-
tons blink in a clockwise direction. (When “Guide
LEDs” is set to “On”. n page 48)
• When System Lock is set, the keycode input box
appears. Enter the right keycode to start projec-
tion. See page 49 for details.
•About the Lamp Indicator
The lamp indicator lights up or blinks, indicating the sta-
tus of the lamp.
Green: The lamp is ready.
Blinking in green:The lamp is warming up or shut-
ting down.
Red: The lamp is shut down abnormally or the
lamp should be replaced.
• When switching on the projector, a slight flickering of the
image may be experienced within the first minute after the
lamp has been illuminated. This is normal operation as the
lamp’s control circuitry is stabilising the lamp output char-
acteristics. It should not be regarded as faulty operation.
• If the projector is put into standby mode and immediately
turned on again, the lamp may take some time to start pro-
jection.

justment buttons blink in a counterclock-
wise direction. (When “Guide LEDs” is set
to “On”. n page 48)• Do not unplug the power cord during projection
or cooling fan operation. This can cause dam-
age due to rise in internal temperature, as the
cooling fan also stops.
