Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your projector and to prevent fire and shock. Please read them carefully and heed all warnings.
Installation
- Place the projector on a flat, level surface and in a dry area free from dust and moisture.
- Do not place the projector in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat radiating appliances.
- Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam could harm internal components.
- Handle your projector carefully. Dropping or jarring your projector could damage internal components.
-
Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector.
-
If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:
a Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
b The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury.
c In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes.
d Please consult your dealer for more information. e Do not attempt to stack projectors on the ceiling.
To Dealer or Installer:
To prevent the projector from falling, install it in a place and fasten it in a way with sufficient strength to support the combined weight (58.2 kg/128.3 lbs) of the projector (43 kg/94.8 lbs), the lens (10 kg/22 lbs) and the ceiling mount(5.2 kg/11.5 lbs) for an extended period of time as well as to withstand earthquakes.
Power Supply
-
The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 1.1 KW AC100-120 / 1.5KW AC200-240V 50/60Hz. Ensure that your power supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.
-
Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending. A demand cord can cause electric shock or fire.
Fire and Shock Precautions
- Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent potentially dangerous concentrations of ozone and the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow at least 8 inches (20cm) of space between your projector and a wall. Allow at least 20 inches (50 cm) of space between the ventilation duct outlet and object.
-
Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector. Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver into your projector. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immediately and have the object removed by a qualified your service person.
-
Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.
CAUTION: High Pressure Lamp May Explode if Improperly Handled.
Refer Servicing to Qualified Service Personnel.
Lamp Caution: Please read before operation
Due to the lamp being sealed in a pressurized environment, there is a small risk of explosion, if not operated correctly. There is minimal risk involved, if the unit is in proper working order, but if damaged or operated beyond the recommended 1500 hours, the risk of explosion increases.
Please note that there is a warning system built in, that displays the following message when you reach 1500 hours of operation" Lamp Running Time is Over 1500 Hours!! When you see this message please contact your NEC Dealer for a replacement.
If the lamp does explode, smoke will be discharged from the vents located on the side of the unit. This smoke is comprised of glass in particulate form and Xenon gas, and will not cause harm if kept out of your eyes. If your eyes have been exposed to this gas, please flush your eyes out with water immediately and seek immediate medical attention. Do not rub your eyes! This could cause serious injury.
WARNING: Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.

INTRODUCTION
This section introduces you to your new SX6000/SX4000 Projector, provides a list of materials that comes with your projector and describes the features and controls.
Introduction to the MultiSync SX6000/SX4000 Projector
The SX6000/SX4000 is one of the finest, most technically advanced projectors available today. The SX6000/SX4000 enables you to project exceptionally bright, precise images up to 500 inches across (measured diagonally) from your PC or Macintosh computer (desktop or notebook), VCR, document camera, laser disc player, DVD player and even an HD VCR or HD laser disc player.
You can use the projector on a tabletop or cart, you can permanently mount it on a ceiling*, or you can use the projector to project images from behind the screen. The remote control can be used in a wired or wireless configuration.
Features you'll enjoy :
• A high-performance 1.0 KW Xenon lamp that delivers 5000 ANSI lumens (High Bright mode: SX6000) / 3,500 ANSI lumens (Variable mode at max: SX4000) with a lamp life of 1500 hours.
- NEC's unique DLP™ based light engine offers true color reproduction.
- The SX6000/SX4000 can accommodate any picture size from 80 to 500 inches (measured diagonally).
- The SX6000/SX4000 projects images with uniform brightness while colors remain true to their original source.
- The projector can be double or even triple stacked without an external frame, producing bright images of 10,000 or 15,000 ANSI lumens (SX6000) / 7,000 or 10,500 ANSI lumens (SX4000) in addition, double or triple stacking offers built-in redundancy.
- An image can be projected from in front or behind a screen, and the projector can even be installed on the ceiling*.

When a VCR, DVD, or some other equipment that supports Copyguard (a copy prevention system) is played back, the screen may be displayed in a curved manner. Adjustments are made in such circumstances. Use the SELECT ◀ or ▶ button to adjust the VD level.
Lens Memory

This function serves to store the adjusted value when using the Shift, Focus, and Zoom buttons of the main unit or the remote control.
Usage Example
When you wish to display on a screen having a 4:3 aspect ratio an NTSC or other 4:3 aspect ratio signal and an SXGA or other 5:4 aspect ratio signal:
Perform shift, focus, and zoom adjustments to set the vertical screen size of the vertically long 5:4 aspect ratio signal to standard.
Both 4:3 apsect ratio signals and 5:4 aspect ratio signals can now be displayed.
Note that with these shift, focus, and zoom adjustments, the 4:3 aspect ratio signal will become smaller on the screen.
To eliminate this size reduction, adjust the shift, focus and zoom to the optimum condition for each of the 4:3 aspect ratio signal and the 5:4 aspect ratio signal. Memory (storage) of each of these values will permit projection at an optimum condition upon signal switching.
1) Select "Projector Options" → "Setup" → "Page 4" → "Lens Memory" and then insert a check mark into the Lens Memory check box.
2) Set to no-signal condition or project a 5:4 aspect ratio signal and then adjust each of shift, focus, and zoom.
3) Select "Reference" under "Adjust(Source)" → "Lens Memory" → "Refer-
* For signals other than those having a 5:4 aspect ratio (or, 5:4 aspect ratio signals that you wish to adjust separately), adjust shift, focus, and zoom, select "Custom" under "Reference/Custom", then press, "Store".
The differences between 'Reference' and 'Custom' are described below.
