Frequently Asked Questions - CPX870 HITACHI

How do I connect my laptop to the Hitachi CPX870 projector?
Connect your laptop to the projector using a VGA or HDMI cable. Select the corresponding input source using the Input button on the remote or projector control panel.
How do I replace the lamp in the CPX870?

Operating the remote control

HITACHI CPX870 - Operating the remote control - 1

WARNING • The laser pointer of the remote control transmitter is used in place of a finger or rod. Never look directly into the laser beam outlet or point laser beam at other people. The laser beam can cause vision problems.

CAUTION • Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

HITACHI CPX870 - Operating the remote control - 2

This remote control has the switch to disable the laser function. Refer to "The Remote Control".

  • The remote control works with both the projector's front and rear remote sensors.
  • The range of the remote sensor on the front is 3 meters with a 60-degree range (30 degrees to the left and right of the remote sensor), and back is 3 meters with a 40-degree range.
  • 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.
    • The wired remote control:

30 degrees 30 degrees approximately 3 meters 20 degrees 20 degrees approximately 3 meters

You can use the remote control as a wired remote control, by connecting the REMOTE CONTROL ports of the main unit and remote control via an audio cable (3.5 dia. stereo mini cable with plugs).

HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH TEMPERATURE HIGH PRESSURE

To replace the lamp, check the model number of the replacement lamp (sold separately) and contact your local dealer.

Replacement lamp model number: DT00571

If the projector is mounted on the ceiling, or if the lamp has broken, ask your dealer to replace the lamp. Lamp replacement is hazardous and should not be attempted by the user.

Before replacing the lamp, make sure the power switch is off and the power cable is not plugged in, then wait at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool sufficiently. Handling the lamp while hot can cause burns, as well as damaging the lamp.

WARNING

The LCD projector uses a glass lamp bulb. It is a mercury lamp with high internal pressure. High-pressure mercury lamps can break with a loud bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, or through wear over time. Each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the projector's vent holes.

  • Do not open the lamp cover while the projector is suspended from above. This is dangerous, since if the lamp's bulb has broken, the shards will fall out when the cover is opened. In addition, working in high places is dangerous, so ask your local dealer to have the lamp replaced even if the bulb is not broken.
  • Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.
  • If the replace lamp indicator (see "Regarding the indicator Lamps" (Vol.2 9)) comes on, replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not use old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.
  • If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible that there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens, contact your local dealer or a service representative.
  • If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.
  • If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unplug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the projector's internals, or cause injury during handling, so please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.
  • Obey local ordinances when disposing of used lamps. In most cases, it is possible to dispose of used bulbs in the same manner as used glass bottles, but in some cases, bulbs are sorted separately.
  • Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed.

THE LAMP (continued)

Replacing the lamp

All projector lamps will wear out eventually. If used for long periods of time, the image could become darkened, and the color contrast could be impacted as well. We recommend that you replace your lamps early. If the LAMP indicator turns red, the lamp needs to be replaced. (See "Regarding the Indicator Lamps" (Vol.2 9) for details.)

1 Turn off the projector, and unplug the power cord. Allow the lamp bulb to cool for at least 45 minutes, and prepare a new lamp (serial number: DT00571)
2 After making sure that the projector has cooled adequately, slide the knob of a lamp cover lock as shown in the figure. Then, one side of the lamp cover is raised. Pull up the lamp cover and remove it, as shown in the figure

Knob of Lamp Cover Lock

3 Unscrew the 3 screws, and slowly pull out the lamp by the handle

- Be careful not to touch the inside of the lamp case.

4 Insert the new lamp, and tighten the 3 screws firmly to lock it in place
5 Interlocking the 2 tabs of the lamp cover to the projector, put the lamp cover on the projector. Then push the point of the lamp cover to fix it, as shown in the figure. Make sure that the lamp cover does't come up

Tabs Push

6 Turn on the projector power, and reset the lamp timer

- To reset the lamp timer, from the OPTION menu, select the LAMP TIME. (Vol.2 7)

ATTENTION • Make sure that the screws are screwed in firmly. Loose screws could result in damage or injury.

  • Do not use with lamp cover removed.
  • Do not reset the lamp timer without replacing the lamp. Reset the lamp timer always when replacing the lamp.

NOTE • The LAMP indicator is also red when the lamp unit reaches high temperature.

Before replacing the lamp, switch power off, wait approximately 20 minutes, and switch power on again. If the LAMP indicator is still red, replace the lamp.

THE AIR FILTER

Caring for the air filter

The air filter should be cleaned about every 100 hours. If the LAMP indicator and TEMP indicator blink red simultaneously, or a message prompts you to clean the air filter when you turn on the unit, the filter needs to be cleaned. (See "Related Messages" (Vol.2 8) and "Regarding the Indicator Lamps" (Vol.2 9) for details.)

1 Turn off the projector, and unplug the power cord

2 Apply a vacuum cleaner to the top of the air filter cover to clean the air filter

Air Filter Cover

3 Turn on the projector, and use the menu to reset the filter timer

- To reset the air filter timer, from the OPTION menu, select FILTER TIME.

THE AIR FILTER (continued)

Replacing the air filter

If the soiling will not come off the air filter, or it becomes damaged, then it needs to be replaced. Please contact your local dealer, after confirming the model of your separately sold replacement air filter.

Replacement air filter model: NJ07081

1 Turn off the projector, and unplug the power cord. Prepare a new air filter (one specified for your projector)

2 Remove the air filter cover and air filter

3 Insert the new filter, and replace the filter cover

4 Turn on the projector power, and using the menu, reset the filter timer

- To reset the filter timer, from the OPTION menu, select FILTER TIME.

ATTENTION • Make sure to turn off the power and unplug the power cord before caring for the unit. Please carefully read "Safety Instructions", in order to care for your projector correctly.

  • Do not use with air filter cover removed.
  • If the air filter becomes clogged by dust or the like, internal temperature rises and could cause malfunction. The power is automatically turned off in order to prevent the unit from overheating internally.

OTHER CARE

Caring for the inside of the projector :

In order to ensure the safe use of your projector, please have it cleaned and inspected by your local dealer about once every 2 years. Never try to care for the inside of the unit yourself. Doing so is dangerous.

Caring for the lens :

Lightly wipe the lens with a commercially available lens-cleaning wipe. Do not touch the lens directly with your hand.

Caring for the cabinet and remote control transmitter :

Wipe lightly with gauze or a soft cloth. If soiling is severe, dip a soft cloth in water or a neutral cleanser diluted in water, and wipe lightly after wringing well. Then, wipe lightly with a soft, dry cloth.

ATTENTION • Make sure to turn off the power and unplug the power cord before caring for the unit. Please carefully read "Safety Instructions" in this manual, in order to care for your projector correctly.

  • Do not use cleaners or chemicals other than those listed above, including benzene and paint thinner.
  • Do not use aerosols or sprays.
  • Do not polish or wipe with hard objects.

NOTE

- Some computers may have multiple display screen modes. Use of some nodes will not be possible with this projector.

  • Be sure to check jack type, signal level, timing and resolution before connecting this projector to a computer.
  • Depending on the input signal, full-size display may not be possible in some cases. Refer to the number of display pixels above.
  • Although the projector can display signals (except DVI input) with resolution up to UXGA (1,600 x 1,200), the signal will be converted to the projector's panel resolution before being displayed. The best display performance will be achieved if the resolutions of the input signal and projector panel are identical.
  • The image may not be displayed correctly when the input sync. signal is “Composite Sync.” or “Sync. on G”.
  • UXGA (1,600 x 1,200) signals cannot be displayed with DVI input.

4 INCREMENT Increment setup value by 1.
5 DECREMENT Decrement setup value by 1.
6 EXECUTE Run a command.

RS-232C COMMUNICATION (continued)

Requesting projector status (Get command)

(1) Send the request code Header + Command data ('02H' + '00H' + type (2 bytes) + '00H' + '00H') from the computer to the projector.
(2) The projector returns the response code '1DH'+ data (2 bytes) to the computer.

Changing the projector settings (Set command)

(1) Send the setting code Header + Command data ('01H' + '00H' + type (2 bytes) + setting code (2 bytes)) from the computer to the projector.
(2) The projector changes the setting based on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code '06H' to the computer.

Using the projector default settings (Reset Command)

(1) The computer sends the default setting code Header + Command data ('06H' + '00H' + type (2 bytes) + '00H' + '00H') to the projector.
(2) The projector changes the specified setting to the default value.
(3) The projector returns the response code '06H' to the computer.

Increasing the projector setting value (Increment command)

(1) The computer sends the increment code Header + Command data ('04H' + '00H' + type (2 bytes) + '00H' + '00H') to the projector.
(2) The projector in creases the setting value on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code '06H' to the computer.

Decreasing the projector setting value (Decrement command)

(1) The computer sends the decrement code Header + Command data ('05H' + '00H' + type (2 bytes) + '00H' + '00H') to the projector.
(2) The projector decreases the setting value on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code '06H' to the computer.

When a command sent by the projector cannot be understood by the computer

When the command sent by the projector cannot be understood, the error command '15H' is returned by the computer. Some times, the projector ignores RS-232C commands during other works. If the error command '15H' is returned, please send the same command again.

When data sent by the projector cannot be practice

When the command sent by the projector cannot be practiced, the error code '1cH' + 'xxxxH' is returned.

When the data length is greater than indicated by the data length code, the projector will ignore the excess data code.

Conversely, when the data length is shorter than indicated by the data length code, an error code will be returned to the projector.

NOTE • Operation cannot be guaranteed when the projector receives an undefined command or data.

  • Provide an interval of at least 40ms between the response code and any other code.
  • The projector outputs test data when the power supply is switched ON, and when the lamp is lit. Ignore this data.
  • Commands are not accepted during warm-up.
