Ceiling-mount Setup
■It is recommended that you use the optional
Sharp ceiling-mount adaptor and unit for this
installation. Before mounting the projector,
contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Pro-
jector Dealer or Service Center to obtain the
recommended ceiling-mount adaptor and unit
(sold separately).
Setting up the Projector
Setting up the Projector
For optimal image quality, position the projector perpendicular to the screen with the projector’s feet
flat and level. Doing so will eliminate the need for Keystone correction and provide the best image
quality. (See page 28.)
Standard Setup (Front Projection)
■Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according
to the desired picture size. (See page 20.)

•See page 62 “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
computer’s external output port is switched on (e.g. Press “Fn” and “F5” keys simultaneously
when using a SHARP notebook computer). Refer to the specific instructions in your computers
operation manual to enable your computer’s external output port.

-While the projector is connected to video equipment that has an HDMI output terminal, only the
video signal can be input to the projector. (Connect the AUDIO input terminal for audio input.)
-Depending on specifications of video equipment or HDMI to DVI digital cable, the signal trans-
mission may not work property. (The HDMI specification does not support all connections to video
equipment that has HDMI digital output terminal using HDMI to DVI digital cable.)
-For details on compatibility for connection, see support information on DVI connection provided
by the video equipment manufacturer.
•When you connect video equipment with a 21-pin RGB output (Euro-scart) to the projector, use a
commercially available cable that fits in the projector terminal you want to connect.
•The projector does not support RGBC signals via the Euro-scart.

Controlling the Projector by a Computer
When the RS-232C terminal on the projector is connected to a computer with a DIN-D-sub RS-
232C adaptor (optional, AN-A1RS) and an RS-232C serial control cable (cross type, commercially
available), the computer can be used to control the projector and check the status of the projector.
See page 57 for details.
When connecting to a computer using an RS-232C serial control cable and a DIN-
D-sub RS-232C adaptor
Note
•The RS-232C function may not operate if your computer terminal is not correctly set up. Refer to the
operation manual of the computer for details.
•See page 56 for connection of an RS-232C serial control cable.
Info
•Do not connect the RS-232C cable to a port other than the RS-232C terminal on the computer. This
may damage your computer or projector.
•Do not connect or disconnect an RS-232C serial control cable to or from the computer while it is on.
This may damage your computer.

Operation
Turning the Projector On/Off
On-screen display (confirmation message)
•When “Auto Restart” is set to “On”:
If the power cord is unplugged from the outlet
or the breaker switch is turned off when the
projector is on, then the projector automati-
cally turns on when the power cord is plugged
into the AC outlet or the breaker switch is
turned on. (See page 45.)
•English is the factory default language. If you
want to change the on-screen display to an-
other language, change the language accord-
ing to the procedure on page 44.
Info
Turning the Projector on
Note that the connections to external equip-
ment and power outlet should be done be-
fore performing the operations written be-
low. (See pages 21 to 24.)
Remove the lens cap and press
STANDBY/ON on the projector or ON
on the remote control.
•The power indicator illuminates green.•After the lamp indicator illuminates, the projec-
tor is ready to start operation.
Note
•About the Lamp Indicator
The lamp indicator illuminates to indicate the sta-
tus of the lamp.
Green: The lamp is on.
Blinking in green:The lamp is warming up.
Red: The lamp is shut down abnormally
or the lamp should be replaced.
•When switching on the projector, a slight flicker-
ing 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 character-
istics. It should not be regarded as faulty opera-
tion.
•If the projector is put into standby mode and
immediately turned on again, the lamp may take
some time to start projection.
•
When System Lock is set, the keycode input box
appears. To cancel the keycode setting, input the
keycode that you have already set. See page 46
for details.
