Note:

The remote control can only interface with a computer when connected to the computer through a USB cable connection. The computer cable connects a computer to the projector for display purposes only.

Remote Control Operating Range

The remote control uses infrared transmission to control the projector. It is not necessary to point the remote directly at the projector. Provided you are not holding the remote perpendicular to the sides or the rear of the projector, the remote will function well within a radius of about 7 meters (23 feet) and 15 degrees above or below the projector level. If the projector does not respond to the remote control, move a little closer.

Projector and Remote Control Buttons

The projector can be operated using the remote control or the buttons on the top of the projector. All operations can be carried out with the remote control; however, the buttons on the projector are limited in use. The following illustration shows the corresponding buttons on the remote control and on the projector.

Replacing the Lamps

When a lamp reaches the end of it's usable life, the following message is displayed. Replace the lamp.

The lamp has reached the end of its usable life. Please replace the lamp.

The projection lamps should be replaced when they burn out. They should only be replaced with a certified replacement part, contact your local dealer if unsure.

Note:

1. Lamps are positioned differently. Take care not to force the lamps when replacing.
2. Installation of both lamp modules (Lamp 1 and Lamp 2) is required to operate the projector in dual or single lamp mode. If only a single lamp module is installed, the projector's lamp will not turn on and will appear as a lamp failure.
3. Lamps last approximately 2000-2100 hours (2500-2600 hours in Eco mode) and the End of lamp life message is displayed during the lamps' final 100 hours of operational life. Please replace during 2000-2100 hour.

Important:

1. The lamp contains a certain amount of mercury and should be disposed of according to local ordinance regulations.
2. Avoid touching the glass surface of the new lamp: doing so may shorten its operation life.

Caution:

Lamp Handling Precautions

• This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
• Lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no guarantee of the same life for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
• If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if LAMP 1 and/or LAMP 2 light up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down. (Follow carefully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.) Continuous use of the lamp with LAMP 1 and/or LAMP 2 lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
• A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which the projector and lamp are being used.

If a lamp explodes, the following safety precautions should be taken:

Disconnect the projector's AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check carefully to ensure that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out from the cooling air circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one should check the inside of the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with projector service. Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.

The projection lamp should be replaced when it burns out. It should only be replaced with a certified replacement part, which you can order from your local dealer.

Important:

a. The lamp contains a certain amount of mercury and should be disposed of according to local ordinance regulations.
b. Avoid touching the glass surface of the new lamp: Doing so may shorten its operation life.

Warning:

Be sure to turn off and unplug the projector at least 30 minutes before replacing the lamp. Failure to do so could result in a severe burn.

Note:

Safety glasses should be worn when replacing the lamp while the projector is ceiling mounted.

1. Remove the four screws on the lamp cover (A), and lift the lamp cover as shown (B).

Operation Using HTTP Browser

Overview

The use of HTTP server functions will allow control of the projector from a web browser without the installation of special software. Please be sure to use "Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.x" or a higher version for the web browser. (This device uses "JavaScript" and "Cookies" and the browser should be set to accept these functions. The setting method will vary depending on the version of browser. Please refer to the help files and the other information provided in your software).

Access is gained to the HTTP server functions by specifying the following address in the entry column of the URL:

http:///index.html

http:///lanconf.html

Note:

The display or button responses can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending on the settings of your network. Should this happen, consult your network administrator. The projector may not respond if its buttons are repeatedly pressed in rapid intervals. Should this happen, wait a moment and repeat. If you still can't get any response, turn off and back on the projector.

Preparation Before Use

Make network connections, set up the projector and confirm that it is complete before engaging in browser operations (see Network setting on page 69 for more information).

Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and the setting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have actually been set will not be displayed depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser may not be reflected in operation. It is recommended that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable.

Handling of the Address for Operation by Using a Browser

Regarding the actual address that is entered for the address or entered to the URL column when operation of the projector is via a browser, the host name can be used as it is when the host name corresponding to the IP address of the projector has been registered to the domain name server by a network administrator, or the host name corresponding to the IP address of the projector has been set in the "HOSTS" file of the computer being used.

Example 1:

When the IP address of the projector is 192.168.73.1, access is gained to the HTTP server functions by specifying http://192.168.73.1/index.html for the address or the entry column of the URL.
