Caution Concerning Lamp Replacement

This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time.
The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.
When the lamp replacement indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended that the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating normally.
■ Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center to assure safe operation.
■ Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In case of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.

Caution

• Do not remove the lamp unit from the projector right after use. The lamp will be very hot and may cause burns or injury.
• Wait at least one hour after the power cord is disconnected to allow the surface of the lamp unit to fully cool before removing the lamp unit.
• Do not touch the glass surface of the lamp unit or the inside of the projector.
• Do not loosen other screws except for the lamp unit cover and lamp unit.
• Make sure to reset the lamp timer only when replacing the lamp. If you reset the lamp timer and continue to use the same lamp, this may cause the lamp to become damaged or explode.

■ Carefully change the lamp by following the instructions described on pages 56 to 58.

* If you wish, you may have the lamp replaced at your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center.

* If the new lamp does not light after replacement, take your projector to the nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center for repair.

Observe the following safeguards when setting up your projector.

Caution concerning the lamp unit

■ Potential hazard of glass particles if lamp ruptures. In case of lamp rupture, contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector

Dealer or Service Center for replacement.

See "Regarding the Lamp" on page 56.

Caution concerning the setup of the projector

For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, SHARP recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the projector is subjected to these environments, the vents and lens must be cleaned more often. As long as the projector is regularly cleaned, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life of the unit. Internal cleaning should only be performed by a Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center.

Rest your eyes occasionally.

■ Continuously watching the screen for long hours will cause eye strain. Take regular breaks to rest your eyes.

Do not set up the projector in places exposed to direct sunlight or bright light.

■ Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.

Caution regarding placing of the projector

■ Place the projector on a level site within the adjustment range (9 degrees) of the adjustment foot.

Two diagrams showing a hammer striking a surface with a red X and a blue O, no text or symbols present.

■ After the projector is purchased, a faint smell from the vent may appear when the power is first turned on. This is normal and is not a malfunction. It will disappear after the projector is used for a while.

When using the projector in high-altitude areas such as mountains (at altitudes of approximately 1,500 meters (4,900 feet) or more)

When you use the projector in high-altitude areas with thin air, set “Fan Mode” to “High”. Neglecting this can affect the longevity of the optical system.
■ Use the projector at altitudes of 2,300 meters (7,500 feet) or less.

Warning about placing the projector in a high position

■ When placing the projector in a high position, make certain it is carefully secure to avoid personal injury caused by the projector falling down.

Do not subject the projector to hard impact and/or vibration.

■ Protect the lens so as not to hit or damage the surface of the lens.

Avoid locations with extremes of temperature.

■ The operating temperature of the projector is from 41^ F to 95^ F (+ 5^ C to + 35^ C).
■ The storage temperature of the projector is from -4^ to 140^ ( -20^ to +60^ ).

Do not block the exhaust and intake vents.

• Allow at least 11^13/_16 inches (30 cm) of space between the exhaust vent and the nearest wall or obstruction.
  ■ Ensure that the intake vent and the exhaust vent are not obstructed.
  If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection circuit will automatically put the projector into Standby mode to prevent overheat damage. This does not indicate a malfunction. (See pages 54 and 55.) Remove the projector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Place the projector where the intake and exhaust vents are not blocked, plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector. This will return the projector to the normal operating condition.

Caution regarding usage of the projector

If you are not to use the projector for a long time or before moving the projector, make certain you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, and disconnect any other cables connected to it.
■ Do not carry the projector by holding the lens.
■ When storing the projector, ensure that you close the lens shutter.
■ Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight or place next to heat sources. Doing so may affect the cabinet color or cause deformation of the plastic cover.

Other connected equipment

When connecting a computer or other audio-visual equipment to the projector, make the connections AFTER unplugging the power cord of the projector from the AC outlet and turning off the equipment to be connected.
■ Please read the operation manuals of the projector and the equipment to be connected for instructions on how to make the connections.

Using the projector in other countries

The power supply voltage and the shape of the plug may vary depending on the region or country you are using the projector in. When using the projector overseas, make sure you use an appropriate power cord for the country you are in.

Temperature monitor function

TEMP.

If the temperature inside the projector increases, due to blockage of the air vents, or the setting location, the temperature warning indicator will blink. And if the temperature keeps on rising, “TEMP.” will illuminate in the lower left corner of the picture with the temperature warning indicator blinking. If this state continues, the lamp will turn off, the cooling fan will run and then the projector will enter Standby mode. Refer to “Maintenance Indicators” on pages 54 and 55 for details.

Info

- The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and its performance is automatically controlled. The sound of the fan may change during projector operation due to changes in the fan speed. This does not indicate malfunction.

Maintenance

Cleaning the projector

■ Ensure that you have unplugged the power cord before cleaning the projector.
The cabinet as well as the operation panel is made of plastic. Avoid using benzene or thinner, as these can damage the finish on the cabinet.
■ Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides on the projector. Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the projector for long periods.
The effects of some of the agents in the plastic may cause damage to the quality or finish of the projector.
■ Wipe off dirt gently with a soft flannel cloth. Using a chemical cloth (wet/dry sheet type cloth, etc.) may deform the components of the cabinet or cause cracking.
■ Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch the cabinet surface.
When the dirt is hard to remove, soak a cloth in a mild detergent diluted with water, wring the cloth well and then wipe the projector. Strong cleaning detergents may discolor, warp or damage the coating on the projector. Make sure to test on a small, inconspicuous area on the projector before use.

Mild detergent Mild detergent diluted with water ↓ Wax Thinner

Cleaning the lens

■ Use a commercially available blower or lens cleaning paper (for glasses and camera lenses) for cleaning the lens. Do not use any liquid type cleaning agents, as they may wear off the coating film on the surface of the lens.
As the surface of the lens can easily get damaged, be careful not to scrape or hit the lens.

About the temperature warning indicator

TEMP.

If the temperature inside the projector increases, due to blockage of the air vents, or the setting location, the temperature warning indicator will blink. And if the temperature keeps on rising,

“TEMP” will illuminate in the lower left corner of the picture with the temperature warning indicator blinking. If this state continues, the lamp will turn off, the cooling fan will run and then the projector will enter Standby mode. When you find the temperature warning indicator blinking, be sure to perform the measures described on page 55.

About the lamp indicator

Change The Lamp.

When the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, (yellow) and “Change The Lamp” will be displayed on the screen. When the percentage becomes 0%, it will change to (red), the lamp will automatically turn off and then the projector will automatically enter Standby mode. At this time, the lamp indicator will illuminate in red.
If you try to turn on the projector a fourth time without replacing the lamp, the projector will not turn on.

Info

• If the temperature warning indicator illuminates, and the projector enters Standby mode, follow the possible solutions above and then wait until the projector has cooled down completely before plugging in the power cord and turning the power back on. (At least 10 minutes.)
• If the power is turned off for a brief moment due to power outage or some other cause while using the projector, and the power supply recovers immediately after that, the lamp indicator will illuminate in red and the lamp may not be lit. In this case, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet, replace the power cord in the AC outlet and then turn the power on again.
• The cooling fan keeps the internal temperature of the projector constant and this function is controlled automatically. The sound of the cooling fan may change during operation because the fan speed may change and this is not a malfunction.

Regarding the Lamp

Lamp

It is recommended that the lamp (sold separately) be replaced when the remaining lamp life becomes 5% or less, or when you notice a significant deterioration in the picture and color quality. The lamp life (percentage) can be checked with the on-screen display. (See page 52.)

Hg LAMP CONTAINS MERCURY For State Lamp Disposal Information

www.lamprecycle.org or 1-800-BE-SHARP

U.S.A ONLY

Caution Concerning the Lamp

This projector utilizes a pressurized mercury lamp. A loud sound may indicate lamp failure. Lamp failure can be attributed to numerous sources such as: excessive shock, improper cooling, surface scratches or deterioration of the lamp due to a lapse of usage time.
The period of time up to failure largely varies depending on the individual lamp and/or the condition and the frequency of use. It is important to note that failure can often result in the bulb cracking.
When the lamp replacement indicator and on-screen display icon are illuminated, it is recommended that the lamp be replaced with a new one immediately, even if the lamp appears to be operating normally.
■ Should the lamp break, there is also a possibility that glass particles may spread inside of the projector. In such a case, it is recommended you contact your nearest Sharp Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center to assure safe operation.
■ Should the lamp break, the glass particles may spread inside the lamp cage or gas contained in the lamp may be vented into the room from the exhaust vent. Because the gas in this lamp includes mercury, ventilate the room well if the lamp breaks and avoid all exposure to the released gas. In case of exposure to the gas, consult a doctor as soon as possible.

RS-232C Specifications and Commands

Computer control

A computer can be used to control the projector by connecting an RS-232C serial control cable (cross type, commercially available) to the projector. (See page 24.)

Communication conditions

Set the serial port settings of the computer to match that of the table.

Signal format: Conforms to RS-232C standard.

Parity bit: None

Baud rate*: 9,600 bps / 38,400 bps / 115,200 bps

Stop bit: 1 bit

Data length: 8 bits

Flow control: None

*Set the projector's baud rate to the same rate as used by the computer.

Basic format

Commands from the computer are sent in the following order: command, parameter, and return code. After the projector processes the command from the computer, it sends a response code to the computer.

Command format

C1	C2	C3	C4	P1	P2	P3	P4

Command 4-digit

Return code (0DH)

Response code format

Info

• When controlling the projector using RS-232C commands from a computer, wait for at least 30 seconds after the power has been turned on, and then transmit the commands.
• After sending an input selection or picture adjustment command and then receiving an “OK” response code, the projector may take some time to process the command. If a second command is sent while the projector is still processing the first command, you may receive an “ERR” response code. If this happens, try resending the second command.
• When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the response code for the previous command from the projector is verified.
• “POWR?????”, “TABN ____ 1”, “TLPS ____ 1”, “TPOW ____ 1”, “TLPN ____ 1”, “TLTT ____ 1”, “TLTM ____ 1”, “TLTL ____ 1”, “TNAM ____ 1”, “MNRD ____ 1”, “PJNO ____ 1”

- When the projector receives the special commands shown above:

* The on-screen display will not disappear.

* The "Auto Power Off" timer will not be reset.

- The special commands are available for applications that require continuous polling.

Note

• If an underbar (_) appears in the parameter column, enter a space.
• If an asterisk (*) appears in the parameter column, enter a value in the range indicated in brackets under Control Contents.

Note

• Optimum image quality will be achieved by matching your computer's output resolution to the resolution that corresponds to “TRUE” in the “Display” column shown above.
• When “Screen resolution” of the computer is different from the resolution displayed on the projected image, follow the procedures shown below.
• Refer to “Resolution” on the “SIG-ADJ” menu and select the same resolution as the resolution in “Screen resolution” of the computer.
• Depending on the computer you are using, the output signal may not be faithful to the "Screen resolution" adjustment. Check the settings of the computer's signal output. If the settings cannot be changed, it is recommended that the resolution be set to the one that corresponds to "TRUE" in the "Display" column.

As a part of policy of continuous improvement, SHARP reserves the right to make design and specification changes for product improvement without prior notice. The performance specification figures indicated are nominal values of production units. There may be some deviations from these values in individual units.

This SHARP projector uses a DLP ^® chip. This very sophisticated panel contains 786,432 (XR-55X)/480,000 (XR-50S) pixels (micromirrors). As with any high technology electronic equipment such as large screen TVs, video systems and video cameras, there are certain acceptable tolerances that the equipment must conform to.

This unit has some inactive pixels within acceptable tolerances which may result in inactive dots on the picture screen. This will not affect the picture quality or the life expectancy of the unit.
