Different input signal resolutions can be adapted to match the specified screen  resolution  without  loss  of  image  quality,  thanks  to  a  generous selection of preset aspect ratios, some of which are user definable.
All picture adjustments can be made with the remote control interac-ting  with  a  simple  menu-activated  On  Screen  Display;  alternatively, the  projector  can  be  controlled  by  a  domestic  automation  system via its serial port.
The appliance has been subjected to exhaustive operating tests by SiM2 to ensure maximum quality.The projector bulb life should thus initially be around 30-60 hours.Besides the usual checks, the Quality Control department also runs additional statistical tests before despatch. in  this  instance  the  packaging  may  show  signs  of  having  been opened, and the hours operation of the lamp may be higher than the value required under standard procedures.
The D80 projector represents the state of the art in image processing combined with the innovative DLP™ sytsem and outstanding optics.
Its range of inputs (1 Composite Video input, 1 S-Video input, 1 Com-ponents or RGB input, 1 graphic RGB input, 1 HDMI™ inputs)  allow it to be connected to a wide range of analogue and digital sources: DVD players, video recorders, satellite and terrestrial receivers, computers, video game consoles, camcorders, etc.
Its image processing system allows optimum reproduction of a wide range  of  input  signals,  from  interlaced  video  to  high  definition  and digital graphics.Faithful  reproduction  of  signals  at  higher  resolutions  (such  as  high definition  video  and  graphics)  occurs  without  loss  of  information  or reduction of image sharpness thanks to the processor ’s high pixel rate signal acquisition capabilities.

CAUTiONTo reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the power supply cable on the rear panel before removing th\
e top cover of the projector.For technical assistance refer to trained personnel authorised by the man\
ufacturer.
Read all chapters of this manual carefully before switching on the projector. This manual provides basic instructions for using the D80 system. installation, preliinary adjustments and procedures that necessitate the removal of the top cover and contact with electrical components must be done by authorised, trained technicians.  To ensure safe operation and long term reliability use exclusively the power cables sup-plied by the manufacturer. Observe all warnings and precautions.
This  symbol  indicates  the  possible  electric 
shock hazard associated with uninsulated live 
components in the interior of the unit.

•  Changing the fuses.
 Before changing the fuse disconnect the unit from the 
mains power supply.
 The  fuse  compartment  is  next  to  the  power  supply  con-
nector (Fig.  ). Remove the fuse holder () with a flat head 
screwdriver and replace the fuse (). Fit a new spare fuse 
(4). Use only T ,15 A H fuses.
Fig.
•  Be careful with cables.
 Make certain cables are routed so that people will not be 
impeded or tripped up.
 Keep all cables away from children. 
 Install the unit as close to the wall socket as possible. Avoid 
stepping on power cables, make certain they do not be-
come tangled, and never jerk or tug them; do not expose 
them to sources of heat, and make sure they do are not 
knotted or crimped. If the power cables become dama-
ged, stop using the system and request the assistance of 
an authorised technician.
•   Disconnect the unit from the mains power supply in the event 
of electrical storms and when not in use.
 To  prevent  damage  from  lightning  strikes  in  the  vicinity, 
disconnect  the  unit  during  storms  or  when  the  sytsem  is 
going to be left unused for a long time. 
•   Avoid contact with liquids and exposure to damp. 
 Do not use the unit near to water (sinks, tubs, etc.); do not 
place objects containing liquids on or near to the unit and 
do not expose it to rain, humidity, drops of water or sprays; 
do not use water or liquid detergent to clean it.
•  Do not allow the unit to overheat.
 To prevent this, allow a free space of at least 40 cm around 
the back of the projector. 
 Do not block the ventilation slots.
 Do not place the unit near to heat sources such as ovens, 
radiators or other devices (including amplifiers).
 Do  not  place  the  unit  in  a  restricted  area  (shelving  units, 
bookshelves, etc.) and in general avoid placing it in poorly 
ventilated areas as this can lead to overheating.
•   Never look directly at the projection lamp.  
 Never look directly into the lamp when it is on as the inten-
se light can damage your eyes. Take particular care that 
children cannot do so.
•  Take  special  care  regarding  the  movements  of  the 
lens.
 Do  not  place  objects  in  the  slots  on  the  side  of  the  lens, 
and also ensure that the lens’s horizontal and vertical mo-
vements are unimpeded by external objects.
•  Position the unit on a stable surface.
 Place the projector on a stable surface or use the provided 
ceiling mounting bracket.
 Never  place  the  projector  on  its  side  or  rear,  lens  or  top 
panel. 
•  Do not insert objects through the openings in the unit.
 Make sure that no objects are inserted inside the units. If this 
should occur, disconnect the unit from the power supply 
immediately and call an authorised technician.
•  Energy savings.
 Disconnect  the  power  supply  when  the  projector  is  not 
in  use.  This  will  considerably  reduce  power  consumption 
and  also  lengthen  the  service  life  of  the  unit ’s  electrical 
circuitr y.

Position the projector on a stable, suitable platform or utilise the 
optional bracket for a fixed ceiling installation.
wARNiNg:  if  using  the  ceiling  mount  bracket,  scrupulously 
observe  the  safety  instructions  included  with  the  bracket 
itself. if  using  a  bracket  other  than  that  supplied  by  SiM2 
Multimedia, make sure that the projector is at least 65 mm 
below the ceiling and that the bracket does not obstruct the 
air vents (intake and outlet).
If the projected image is not level, adjust the feet on its base 
to obtain a level position, lining up the base of the projected 
image to the base of the projection screen (Fig. 6).

Place  the  projector  at  the  desired  distance  from  the  screen: 
the  size  of  the  projected  image  is  a  function  of  the  distance 
between the lens and the screen and the lens zoom setting.
Use the motor zoom (Fig. 7) to zoom the projected image in 
and out.
Use the motor focus function (Fig. 7) to obtain a clear image; 
if  the  image  is  correctly  focused,  you  should  be  able  to  see 
each  single  pixel  of  the  projected  image  when  close  to  the 
screen (Fig. 7).

To  activate  an  electric  motorised  screen  a  1  Volt  output  is 
provided at the rear of the projector (Fig. 10).
The output is activated (Voltage: 1 Vdc) when the projector is 
switched on and is de-activated (no Voltage output) when the 
projector is in stand-by mode.
You can also use black motirised curtains to delimit the screen 
when the projected image aspect ratio changes (Fig. 11a). This 
option is controlled via the output at the rear of the projector.

For rear projection the screen must be translucent. 
For front projection, we recommend the use of a screen with 
black matt borders to contain the projected image.
Preferably  use  a  unit  gain  screen;  high  gain  screens  are  only 
effective when used with a small group of viewers close to the 
screen’s axis.
Prevent  ambient  light  shining  directly  on  the  screen  during 
projection  as  this  will  reduce  the  contrast  of  the  projected 
image.
Furniture and other objects with reflecting surfaces, as well as 
light  coloured  walls  should  be  avoided,  as  they  are  likely  to 
interfere with the screen’s characteristics.

The manual lens shift adjustment allows the projected image 
to be moved vertically, up or down, in relation to the centre of 
the screen; the maximum adjustment being equal to half the 
height of the image in either direction (Fig. 11b).

When the unit is switched on from standby the lamp switches on; 
after a brief period of warming up, the image displays (green 
led on). The projected image comes from the input selected 
when the unit was last switched off (Fig. 14).
If a ver y short time has passed since the unit was last switched 
off, the lamp may not switch on beause it is too hot.
Just wait a few minutes for the lamp to cool down sufficiently.
