Operating The Remote Control
NOTE
• Replace the batteries whenever the remote control starts to malfunction.
• When strong lights, such as direct sunlight or light from an extremely close range (such 
as from an inverter fluorescent lamp), hit the projector’s remote sensor, the remote 
control may cause to function. Adjust the direction of the projector to keep light from 
directly hitting the projector’s remote sensor.
The remote control works with the 
projector’s remote sensors.
Front remote sensor is 3 meters with a 
60 degree range (30 degrees to the left 
and right of a remote sensor).
Rear remote sensor is 3 meters with a 4 
degree range (2 degrees to the left and 
right of a remote sensor).
Also a remote signal reflected in the screen etc. may be available. If it is difficult to send a 
remote signal to the sensor directly, please try.
Since the remote control uses infrared light to send signals to the projector (Class 1 LED), 
be sure to use the remote control in an area free from obstacles that could block the remote 
control’s output signal to the projector.
memo You can use the remote control as a wired remote control, by connecting the REMOTE 
CONTROL port of the main unit and remote control via an audio cable (3.5 dia. Stereo mini 
cable with plugs).
