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

- Do not place the projector in the following conditions:

• on an unstable cart, stand, or table.
• near water, baths, or damp rooms.
• in direct sunlight, near heaters, or heat radiating appliances.
• in a dusty, smoky or steamy environment.
• on a sheet of paper or cloth, rugs or carpets.

- If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:

• Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
• The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury.
• In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes.
• Please consult your dealer for more information.

WARNING

• Do not cover the lens with the lens cap or equivalent while the projector is on. Doing so can lead to melting of the cap due to the heat emitted from the light output.
• Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of the projector lens. Doing so could lead to the object melting from the heat that is emitted from the light output.

Place the projector in a horizontal position

The tilt angle of the projector should not exceed 10 degrees, nor should the projector be installed in any way other than the desktop and ceiling mount, otherwise lamp life could decrease dramatically.

Fire and Shock Precautions

• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow at least 4 inches (10cm) of space between your projector and a wall.
• Do not try to touch the ventilation outlet on the front side as it can become heated while the projector is turned on and immediately after the projector is turned off.

• 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 service personnel.
• Do not place any objects on top of the projector.
• Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or fire.
• The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-240V AC 50/60 Hz. Ensure that your power supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.
• Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.

• Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to the eyes.
• Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of a projector exhaust vent.

Doing so could lead to the object melting or getting your hands burned from the heat that is emitted from the exhaust.

- Handle the power cord carefully. A damaged or frayed power cord can cause electric shock or fire.

• Do not use any power cords than the supplied one.
• Do not bend or tug the power cord excessively.
• Do not place the power cord under the projector, or any heavy object.
• Do not cover the power cord with other soft materials such as rugs.
• Do not heat the power cord.
• Do not handle the power plug with wet hands.

- Turn off the projector, unplug the power cord and have the projector serviced by a qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

• When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled into the projector, or if it has been exposed to rain or water.

• If the projector does not operate normally when you follow the instructions described in this user's manual.

• If the projector has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.

• If the projector exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.

• Disconnect the power cord and any other cables before carrying the projector.

• Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord before cleaning the cabinet or replacing the lamp.
• Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord if the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time.
• When using a LAN cable (V300X/V260X/V300W/V260W only):

For safety, do not connect to the connector for peripheral device wiring that might have excessive voltage.

CAUTION

• Do not use the tilt-foot for purposes other than originally intended. Misuses such as using the tilt foot to carry or hang (from the wall or ceiling) the projector can cause damage to the projector.
• Do not send the projector in the soft case by parcel delivery service or cargo shipment. The projector inside the soft case could be damaged.
• Select [HIGH] in Fan mode if you continue to use the projector for consecutive days. (From the menu, select [SETUP] → [OPTIONS(1)] → [FAN MODE] → [HIGH].)
• Do not turn off the AC power for 60 seconds after the lamp is turned on and while the POWER indicator is blinking green.
  Doing so could cause premature lamp failure.
• Parts of the projector may become temporarily heated if the projector is turned off with the POWER button or if the AC power supply is disconnected during normal projector operation.
  Use caution when picking up the projector.

Remote Control Precautions

• Handle the remote control carefully.
• If the remote control gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
• Avoid excessive heat and humidity.
• Do not heat, take apart, or throw batteries into fire.
• If you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.
• Ensure that you have the batteries' polarity (+/−) aligned correctly.
• Do not use new and old batteries together, or use different types of batteries together.
• Dispose of used batteries according to your local regulations.

Lamp Replacement

• Use the specified lamp for safety and performance.
• To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page 81.
• Be sure to replace the lamp when the message [THE LAMP HAS REACHED THE END OF ITS USABLE LIFE. PLEASE REPLACE THE LAMP. USE THE SPECIFIED LAMP FOR SAFETY AND PERFORMANCE] appears. If you continue to use the lamp after the lamp has reached the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury.
  If this happens, contact your dealer for lamp replacement.

A Lamp Characteristic

The projector has a high-pressure mercury lamp as a light source.

A lamp has a characteristic that its brightness gradually decreases with age. Also repeatedly turning the lamp on and off will increase the possibility of its lower brightness.

CAUTION:

• DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been used. It will be extremely hot. Turn the projector off and then disconnect the power cord. Allow at least one hour for the lamp to cool before handling.
• When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the projector. Glass fragments could fall if the lamp has been burned out.

Note for US Residents

The lamp in this product contains mercury. Please dispose according to Local, State or Federal Laws.

WARNING

* Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done by a qualified technician. Contact your NEC dealer for more information.
* Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
- Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector falls to the ground, you can be injured and the projector severely damaged.
- Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The projector must be used at temperatures between 41°F (5°C) and 104°F (40°C). ([ECO MODE] is set automatically to [ON] at 95°F to 104°F/35°C to 40°C. Note that [ECO] mode will be set to [ON] automatically at 86°F to 104°F/30°C to 40°C when used in [HIGH ALTITUDE].)
- Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will harm the screen image.
- Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the side or the front of the projector.

Reflecting the Image

Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables you to enjoy a much larger image when a smaller space is required. Contact your NEC dealer if you need a mirror system. If you're using a mirror system and your image is inverted, use the MENU and buttons on your projector cabinet or your remote control to correct the orientation. ( page 68)

② Making Connections

Connecting Your PC or Macintosh Computer

NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning on the power to the notebook PC.

In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before being powered up.

* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power management software.

Enabling the computer's external display

Displaying an image on the notebook PC's screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.

When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display.

Usually, the combination of the 'Fn' key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on or off. For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through external display selections.

⑤ Checking Energy-Saving Effect [CARBON METER]

This feature will show energy-saving effect in terms of CO emission reduction (kg) when the projector's [ECO MODE] is set to [ON]. This feature is called [CARBON METER].

There are two messages: [TOTAL CARBON SAVINGS/TOTAL COST SAVINGS] and [CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION]. The [TOTAL CARBON SAVINGS/TOTAL COST SAVINGS] message shows the total amount of COemission reduction and the electricity cost savings from the time of shipment up to now. You can check the information on [USAGE TIME] from [INFO.] of the menu. (→ page 77)

SOURCE ADJUST SETUP INFO. RESET USAGE TIME SOURCE(1) 1/3 LAMP LIFE REMAINING 100% LAMP HOURS USED 00000[H] TOTAL CARBON SAVINGS 0.000[kg-CO2] TOTAL COST SAVINGS 0.00[$] ENTER EXIT EXIT MOVE MOVE COMPUTER

The [CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION] message shows the amount of CO _2 emission reduction between the time of changing to ECO MODE immediately after the time of power-on and the time of power-off. The [CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION] message will be displayed in the [POWER OFF/ ARE YOU SURE?] message at the time of power-off.

POWER OFF ARE YOU SURE ? CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION 0.000[g-CO2] YES NO

TIP:

• The formula as shown below is used to calculate the amount of CO2 emission reduction.
  Amount of CO 2 emission reduction = Power consumption in OFF for ECO MODE – Power consumption in ON for ECO MODE x CO _2 conversion factor. *
  * Calculation for amount of CO₂ emission reduction is based on an OECD publication “COEmissions from Fuel Combustion, 2008 Edition”.
• This formula will not apply to the power consumption which is not affected by whether [ECO MODE] is turned on or off.
• The factors for [TOTAL COST SAVINGS] can be changed from the menu ([CARBON CONVERT] and [CURRENCY CONVERT]). (→ page 73, 74)
• The currency unit for [TOTAL COST SAVINGS] can be changed from the menu ([CURRENCY]). (→ page 74)

⑨ Network Setting by Using an HTTP Browser (V300X/V260X/V300W/V260W only)

Overview

Connecting the projector to a network allows the Alert Mail setting ( page 47) and the projector control from a computer via the network.

To perform the projector control from a web browser, you must have an exclusive application installed on your computer.

The IP address and subnet mask of the projector can be set on the Network Setting screen of the web browser by using an HTTP server function. Please be sure to use “Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0” 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 function by starting the Web browser on the computer via the network connected to the projector and enter the following URL.

- Network Setting

http:///index.html

- Alert Mail Setting

http:///lanconfig.html

TIP:

- The default IP address is "192.168.0.10".

- The exclusive application can be downloaded from our website.

NOTE:

• If the PROJECTOR NETWORK SETTINGS screen does not appear in the web browser, press the Ctrl+F5 keys to refresh your web browser (or clear the cache).
• The display's or button's response can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending 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

Connect the projector to a commercially available LAN cable before engaging in browser operations. ( page 18) 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 via 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 host name of the projector has been set to “pj.nec.co.jp”, access is gained to the network setting by specifying

http://pj.nec.co.jp/index.html

for the address or the entry column of the URL.

Example 2: When the IP address of the projector is “192.168.73.1”, access is gained to the mail alert settings by specifying

http://192.168.73.1/index.html

for the address or the entry column of the URL.

② Replacing the Lamp

When the lamp reaches the end of its life, the LAMP indicator in the cabinet will blink red. Even though the lamp may still be working, replace the lamp to maintain the optimal projector performance. After replacing the lamp, be sure to clear the lamp hour meter. ( page 79)

CAUTION

• Use the specified lamp for safety and performance.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been used. It will be extremely hot. Turn the projector off, and then disconnect the power cord. Allow at least one hour for the lamp to cool before handling.
• DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS except one lamp cover screw and three lamp housing screws. You could receive an electric shock.
• Do not break the glass on the lamp housing.

Keep finger prints off the glass surface on the lamp housing. Leaving finger prints on the glass surface might cause an unwanted shadow and poor picture quality.

- The projector will turn off and go into standby mode when you continue to use the projector for another 100 hours after the lamp has reached the end of its life. If this happens, be sure to replace the lamp. If you continue to use the lamp after the lamp reaches the end of its life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury. If this happens, contact your NEC dealer for lamp replacement.

Over-Temperature Protection

If the temperature inside the projector rises too high, the over-temperature protector will automatically turn off the lamp with the STATUS indicator blinking (2-cycle On and Off.)

Should this happen, do the following:

• Unplug the power cord after the cooling fans stop.
• Move the projector to a cooler location if the room where you are presenting is particularly too warm.
• Clean the ventilation holes if they are clogged with dust.
• Wait about 60 minutes until the inside of the projector becomes cool enough.

Common Problems & Solutions ( “Power/Status/Lamp Indicator” on page 84.)

Problem Check These Items
Does not turn on or shut down	Check that the power cord is plugged in and that the power button on the projector cabinet or the remote control is on. (→ pages 19 and 20)Ensure that the lamp cover is installed correctly. (→ page 83)Check to see if the projector has overheated. If there is insufficient ventilation around the projector or if the room where you are presenting is particularly warm, move the projector to a cooler location.Check to see if you continue to use the projector for another 100 hours after the lamp has reached the end of its life. If so, replace the lamp. After replacing the lamp, reset the lamp hours used. (→ page 79)The lamp may fail to light. Wait a full minute and then turn on the power again.Set [FAN MODE] to [HIGH ALTITUDE] when using the projector at altitudes approximately 5500 feet/1700 meters (3000 feet/900 meters on V300X/V300W) or higher. Using the projector at altitudes approximately 550 feet/1700 meters or higher without setting to [HIGH ALTITUDE] can cause the projector to overheat and the projector could shut down. If this happens, wait a couple minutes and turn on the projector. (→ page 70)If you turn on the projector immediately after the lamp is turned off, the fans run without displaying an image for some time and then the projector will display the image. Wait for a moment.
Will turn off	Ensure that the [OFF TIMER] or [AUTO POWER OFF] is off. (→ page 65, 73)
No picture	Use the COMPUTER1, the VIDEO or the S-VIDEO button on the remote control to select your source (Computer, Video or S-Video). (→ page 22) If there is still no picture, press the button again.Ensure your cables are connected properly.Use menus to adjust the brightness and contrast. (→ page 58)Remove the lens cap.Reset the settings or adjustments to factory preset levels using the [RESET] in the Menu. (→ page 79)Enter your registered keyword if the Security function is enabled. (→ page 34)Be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning on the power to the notebook PC.In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before being powered up.* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power management software.See also thenext page.
Picture suddenly becomes dark	Check if the projector is in the Forced ECO mode because of too high ambient temperature. If this is the case, lower the internal temperature of the projector by selecting [HIGH] for [FAN MODE]. (→ page 70)
Color tone or hue is unusual	Check if an appropriate color is selected in [WALL COLOR]. If so, select an appropriate option. (→ page 64)Adjust [HUE] in [PICTURE]. (→ page 58)
Image isn't square to the screen	Reposition the projector to improve its angle to the screen. (→ page 23)Use the Keystone correction function to correct the trapezoid distortion. (→ page 26)
Picture is blurred	Adjust the focus. (→ page 25)Reposition the projector to improve its angle to the screen. (→ page 23)Ensure that the distance between the projector and screen is within the adjustment range of the lens. (→ page 11)Condensation may form on the lens if the projector is cold, brought into a warm place and is then turned on. Should this happen, let the projector stand until there is no condensation on the lens.
Flicker appears on screen	Set [FAN MODE] to other than [HIGH ALTITUDE] mode when using the projector at altitudes approximately 5500 feet/1700 meters (3000 feet/900 meters on V300X/V300W) or lower. Using the projector at altitudes less than approximately 5500 feet/1700 meters (3000 feet/900 meters on V300X/V300W) and setting to [HIGH ALTITUDE] can cause the lamp to overcool, causing the image to flicker. Switch [FAN MODE] to [AUTO]. (→ page 70)
Image is scrolling vertically, horizontally or both	Check the computer's resolution and frequency. Make sure that the resolution you are trying to display is supported by the projector. (→ page 93)Adjust the computer image manually with the Horizontal/Vertical in the [IMAGE OPTIONS]. (→ page 61)
Remote control does not work	Install new batteries.(→ page 8)Make sure there are no obstacles between you and the projector.Stand within 22 feet (7 m) of the projector. (→ page 8)Make sure that the remote control's ID corresponds with the projector's ID. (→ page 69)
Indicator is lit or blinking	See the POWER/STATUS/LAMP Indicator. (→ page 84)
Cross color in RGB mode	Press the AUTO ADJ. button on the projector cabinet or the remote control. (→ page 28)Adjust the computer image manually with [CLOCK]/[PHASE] in [IMAGE OPTIONS] in the menu. (→ page 60)
Cannot control the projector from external equipment	Check to see if [STANDBY MODE] is set to [POWER-SAVING] and if it is, try to set it to [NORMAL]. (→ page 72)
3D picture is not display	See "Troubleshooting on viewing 3D images" on page 51.

For more information contact your dealer.

If there is no picture, or the picture is not displayed correctly.

- Power on process for the projector and the PC.

Be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning on the power to the notebook PC.

In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before being powered up.

NOTE: You can check the horizontal frequency of the current signal in the projector's menu under Information. If it reads "0kHz", this means there is no signal being output from the computer. (→ page 78 or go to next step)

- Enabling the computer's external display.

Displaying an image on the notebook PC's screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector. When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display. Usually, the combination of the "Fn" key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on or off. For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through external display selections.

• Non-standard signal output from the computer

If the output signal from a notebook PC is not an industry standard, the projected image may not be displayed correctly. Should this happen, deactivate the notebook PC's LCD screen when the projector display is in use. Each notebook PC has a different way of deactivate/reactivate the local LCD screens as described in the previous step. Refer to your computer's documentation for detailed information.

• Image displayed is incorrect when using a Macintosh

When using a Macintosh with the projector, set the DIPswitch of the Mac adapter (not supplied with the projector) according to your resolution. After setting, restart your Macintosh for the changes to take affect.

For setting display modes other than those supported by your Macintosh and the projector, changing the DIP switch on a Mac adapter may bounce an image slightly or may display nothing. Should this happen, set the DIP switch to the 13" fixed mode and then restart your Macintosh. After that, restore the DIP switches to a displayable mode and then restart the Macintosh again.

NOTE: A Video Adapter cable manufactured by Apple Computer is needed for a PowerBook which does not have a mini D-Sub 15-pin connector.

- Mirroring on a PowerBook

* When using the projector with a Macintosh PowerBook, output may not be set to 1024 x 768 unless “mirroring” is off on your PowerBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Macintosh computer for mirroring.

- Folders or icons are hidden on the Macintosh screen

Folders or icons may not be seen on the screen. Should this happen, select [View] → [Arrange] from the Apple menu and arrange icons.

*4 HDMI™ (Deep Color, Lip Sync) with HDCP

What is HDCP/HDCP technology?

HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a system for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a Digital Visual Interface (DVI).

If you are unable to view material via the HDMI input, this does not necessarily mean the projector is not functioning properly. With the implementation of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is protected with HDCP and might not be displayed due to the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital Content Protection, LLC).

^5 An image with higher or lower resolution than the projector's native resolution (V300X/V260X/V230X: 1024 × 768 and V260/V230: 800 × 600) will be displayed with scaling technology.
