Using the Home Theater Kit

The Compaq Microportable Projector has been designed to integrate the video decoding functionality into the projector itself. The optional Home Theater kit uses this video decoding functionality to offer a complete home theater solution.

The optional Home Theater Kit is not included with the Compaq Microportable Projector. For information on purchasing the optional Home Theater Kit, call your Compaq authorized dealer or reseller. To locate a dealer or reseller near you, refer to the Worldwide Telephone Numbers booklet that came with your projector or, to purchase directly from Compaq, refer to the Compaq website at http://www.compaq.com/products/projectors.

Contents of the Home Theater Kit

The home theater kit contains five cables:

① S-video cable—connects the projector to a video source with super video capabilities (e.g., DVD player, video cassette recorder, laser disc player, camcorder, satellite dish receiver, etc.) using an S-video connector.

② Composite video cable—connects the projector to a video source without super video capabilities (e.g., videocassette recorder) using a composite video connector.

③ VGA-to-HDTV/Component video cable—connects the projector to a video source for high quality video playback. The component video cable connects directly to a standard VGA connector. In addition, this cable can be used to connect the projector to a High Definition TV (HDTV) source. For details on HDTV support, refer to “HDTV Modes” later in this chapter.

HDTV Modes

The Compaq Microportable Projector is capable of displaying various High Definition TV (HDTV) display modes. A variety of sources can be used to provide HDTV data to the projector for display. Some of these sources are:

■ Digital-VHS (D-VHS) player
■ HDTV-DVD player
■ Satellite Dish HDTV receiver
■ A variety of DTV tuners (to receive programming over the airwaves)
■ Game stations

Most of these sources will provide an analog component video output, a standard VGA output, or a standard digital DVI output. The color information can be either in YPrPb (default) format or RGB format. The user can switch between these using the on-screen display menu adjustments by selecting “A/V & HDTV Control.” Refer to “Introducing the On-Screen Display Menu” in Chapter 3 for more information.

The projector is capable of processing HDTV data provided either on the standard VGA connector or the DVI interface. Use the VGA-to-HDTV/Component video cable that comes with the optional Home Theater Kit to feed the component outputs to the VGA input connector.

The following modes are supported on the DVI interface:

HD0

640 x 480p
□ 1280 x 720p

■ HD1—1920 x 1080i

When displaying HDTV content, it is recommended that you display it in its native 16:9 widescreen mode. For this, you may need to select the HDTV Fill to Aspect Ratio mode on the projector to preserve the height-to-width relationship of the material. Note that in this mode, you will have black stripes on top and bottom of the projected image, just as you see on a standard TV set when viewing widescreen content.

A desktop or notebook computer can also be used to generate a HDTV video stream. Capable computers should be able to read/acquire the HDTV data and blend it into the desktop graphics. The composite image is then sent to the projector for display. In this case, the projector displays the image at the standard 4:3 aspect ratio, just as it would any other computer graphics mode. The projector processes the data as it comes from the computer.

When displaying HDTV content in a window as part of your desktop environment, it is recommended to project it in the computer's native 4:3 mode since the computer has already embedded the HDTV video stream in widescreen format within the window. To do so, you may need to select the Fill to Screen mode on your projector to preserve the height-to-width relationship of the material.

Regardless of the source, the HDTV formats are generally of higher resolution than that of the projector (XGA, or 1024 x 768). Therefore, the projector will normally downscale the HDTV data to fit the complete image within the displayable 1024 x 768 resolution.

Care and Maintenance

This section explains how to care for and maintain your Compaq projector during normal everyday use.

Protecting the Projector

To protect your projector from overheating and other types of damage, follow these suggestions:

■ Use only a power source and connection appropriate for this projector as indicated on the product label located on the bottom of the projector on the elevator foot.
- Do not overload an electrical outlet, power strip, or convenience receptacle. The overall system load must not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating. If an extension cord or power strip is used, make sure that the cord or strip is rated for the product and that the total ampere ratings of all products plugged into the extension cord or power strip do not exceed 80 percent of the extension cord or strip ampere ratings limit. Refer to the product label located on the bottom of the projector on the elevator foot.
■ Install the projector near an outlet that you can easily reach. Disconnect the power cord by grasping the plug firmly and pulling it from the electrical outlet.
■ Unplug the projector from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
■ Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. These openings must not be blocked or covered. Never push objects of any kind into cabinet slots or other openings.

■ Do not drop the projector or place it on an unstable surface.
■ Do not expose the projector to rain or moisture.
■ Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not walk on the cord.
■ Do not allow the projector to be exposed to high temperatures.
- Do not open the projector or attempt to service this product for any reason other than to replace the lamp module. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions. If the projector is not operating properly or has been dropped or damaged, contact your Compaq authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider.

Cleaning the Lens

To minimize the risk of damaging or scratching the lens surface, follow this cleaning procedure. First, remove any dust particles from the lens by blowing them off with clean, dry, deionized air. However, this may not be a convenient method, and an alternate method is described below.

To clean the lens, use only a clean cloth and follow these steps:

CAUTION: Do not spray any type of fluid or cleaner directly on the lens surface. Do not use liquid cleaners.

1. Wipe the lens in a single direction with a clean, dry cloth. Do not wipe back and forth across the lens surface.

2. If the cloth is dirty or smears the lens, wash the cloth. If the cloth is still dirty after washing it or the fabric is damaged, replace it.

Do not use fabric softener when washing a cleaning cloth or softener sheets when drying the cloth.

CAUTION: Do not store a cleaning cloth in contact with the lens for a long time as doing so may contaminate the lens with dye from the cloth. The cloth can be contaminated if left in the open air.
