CONTROLS AND FEATURES 
						

							1.  Input Terminal
This is an input terminal for component signals (Y, CB, CR) or DTV-format (Y, PB, PR) signals. Devices which have component signal 
output terminals can be connected. This terminal can also be used as multipurpose video input terminals that allow input of the following 
signals:  analog  RGB  signals,  vertical  sync  (V)  signals,  and  horizontal  sync  (H)  signals/  composite  signals  (Cs).  Devices  which  have 
analog RGB signals output terminals can be connected.
To use this terminal, the “RGB2(BNC)” item in the “Options” menu must be set correctly according to the input signals.
• Input of external sync signals is automatically detected. Detection of H/V signals or Cs signals causes automatic switching to external 
sync. The priority order is H/V>Cs.
• When computer signals are input, the uppermost edge of the image may appear to bow if the sync signal input is a composite sync (Cs) 
or G on sync signal. In this case, use separate sync signals for vertical sync (V) and horizontal sync (H).
2. RGB1
This is an input terminal dedicated to computer signals (RGB Video signals and sync signals). Connect the display output terminal of 
the computer to this terminal. When a Macintosh computer is to be connected, use the conversion adapter (sold separately) for Mac.
• When  computer  signals  are  input,  the  uppermost  edge  of  the  image  may  appear  to  bow  if  the  sync  signal  input  is  a  composite  sync 
(Cs) or G on sync signal. In this case, please use separate sync signals for vertical sync (V) and horizontal sync (H).
3. DVI (RGB3)
HDCP  compatible  video  signals  (480p,  720p  60/59  Hz,  1080i  60/59  Hz)  and  input  terminal  for  personal  computer  (RGB)  signal. 
Connect the display output terminal of the computer to this terminal.
• The menu screen for HDCP compatible signal input is the same as when RGB input is selected.
4. SCREEN TRIGGER
The signal output for controlling the roll-up screen that supports [SCREEN TRIGGER]. Outputs DC 12V/max. 100 mA when power 
is on.

INSTALLING THE PROJECTOR
» Projection Distance and Screen Size
• This projector uses 1.3x manual zoom lens for projection.
• Although the focusable projection distance is about 1.6 m ~ 12 m, the projection distance recommendable for 
performance is about 2 m ~ 8 m. Install the projector within this range and adjust the screen size when the aspect ratio of 
the screen is 16:9.
• If the KEYSTONE is adjusted, the screen becomes smaller.
16:9 and 4:3 Screen
A  4:3  aspect-ratio  picture  is  projected  based 
on  the  width  of  the  range  in  which  a  16:9 
aspect-ratio picture is projected. The diagonal 
length  of  a  4:3  aspect-ratio  screen  is  about 
81.7 % that of a 16:9 aspect-ratio screen.

     525p progressive signals.*7 : Responds to signals of which the horizontal scanning frequency is 31.25 kHz. PAL can be made twice as dense by a line doubler  
     (separately available: recommended article).*8 : To use these signals, it is required to set the “RGB2(BNC)” item in the “Projector Opt” menu to “YPBPR”.*9 : To use these signals, it is required to set the “RGB2(BNC)” item in the “Projector Opt” menu to “RGB”.
(3) Response to DTV-format signals
DTV-format signals (480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i) can be input to the [Y], [PB/CB], [PR/CR]*10 input terminals.*10 : To use these signals, it is required to set the “RGB2(BNC)” item in the “Projector Opt” menu to “YPBPR”.
• Computer Signals
Computer signals can be input to the [RGB1], [RGB2], ([G], [B], [R], [H/CS], [V])*11 or [RGB3] (DVI-D) terminals.*11 : It is required to set the “RGB2(BNC)” item in the “Projector Opt” menu to “RGB”.
 Scanning frequencies in the following ranges can be inputted.
 Horizontal scanning frequency : 15 kHz ~ 120 kHz
 Vertical scanning frequency : 24 Hz, 25 Hz, 30 Hz, 50 Hz ~ 120 Hz
 Be sure that the computer used meets the following conditions.
 • The computer has a video signal output port.
 Confirm if the computer has a video signal output port by consulting the computer ’s manual. The video signal output port is
 generally called RGB port, monitor port, or video port. In the case where the computer comes with a built-in monitor, e.g.; a 
 notebook,  an  external  output  port  may  need  to  be  purchased. Also,  note  that  an  external  output  port  cannot  be  installed  in 
 some computers.
 • The resolution and the scanning frequencies are within the range specified in the table on page 19.
 Be  sure  that  the  resolution  and  the  scanning  frequencies  of  the  video  signal  are  within  this  range.  Video  signals  out  of  this 
 range should not be used. (Out of range signals can be projected but the image may not turn out sharp. Signals within the range 
 may occasionally require adjustment, depending on the video board used). When signals other than those listed in the table on 
 page 19 are input, the image could be partially erased or unwanted folds-over the image could appear. Some signals within the 
 frequency  range  may  not  be  displayed  normally  depending  on  the  type  of  the  signal.  Composite  sync  (Cs)  and  G  on  Sync 
 signals cannot be handled depending on the devices connected.
