Securing personal information

Personally identifiable information, such as IP addresses, may be saved on the projector.

Before transferring or disposing of the projector, clear this data by performing [RESTORE FACTORY SETTINGS] on the on-screen menu.

Cautions for ensuring the projector's performance

  • If intense light like laser beams enters from the lens, it could lead to malfunction.
  • Consult your dealer before using in places where much cigarette smoke or dust is present.
  • When the same still image is projected for a long period of time with a computer, etc. the pattern of the image may remain on the screen after the projection is stopped, but it will disappear after a while. This happens due to the properties of liquid crystal panels, and is not a malfunction. We recommend using a screensaver on the computer side.
  • When using the projector at altitudes of about 5500 feet/ 1600 meters or higher, be sure to set the [FAN MODE] to [HIGH ALTITUDE]. If not, the inside of the projector may get hot, leading to malfunction.
  • When the projector is used at high altitudes (places where the atmospheric pressure is low), it may be necessary to replace the optical parts sooner than usual.
  • About moving the projector

- Be sure to mount the included lens cap to protect the lens from scratches.

- Do not subject the projector to vibrations or strong shocks.

The projector could be damaged otherwise.

  • Do not use the tilt feet for purposes other than adjusting the projector's tilt.
    Improper handling, such as carrying the projector by the tilt feet or using it leaned against a wall, could lead to malfunction.
  • Do not touch the surface of the projection lens with bare hands.
    Fingerprints or dirt on the surface of the projection lens will be enlarged and projected on the screen. Do not touch the surface of the projection lens.
  • Do not unplug the power cord from the projector or the power outlet while projecting. Doing so could cause deterioration of the projector's AC IN terminal or power plug contact. To interrupt the AC power supply while images are being projected, use a breaker, etc.
  • About handling of the remote control

  • The remote control will not work if the projector's remote signal sensor or the remote control's signal transmitter is exposed to strong light or if there are obstacles between them that obstruct the signals.

  • Operate the remote control from within 23 feet / 7 meters from the projector, pointing it at the projector's remote signal sensor.
  • Do not drop the remote control or handle it improperly.
  • Do not let water or other liquids get on the remote control. Should the remote control get wet, wipe it off immediately.
  • Avoid using in hot and humid places as far as possible.

• Take measures to prevent external light from shining on the screen.

Make sure only the light from the projector shines on the screen. The less external light on the screen, the higher the contrast and the more beautiful the images.

- About screens

Images will not be clear if there is dirt, scratches, discoloration, etc. on your screen. Handle the screen with care, protecting it from volatile substances, scratches and dirt.

Clearance for Installing the Projector

- When installing the projector, keep sufficient space around it, as described below. If not, the hot exhaust emitted from the projector may be taken back in.

Also, make sure no wind from an air-conditioner hits the projector.

The projector's heat control system may detect an abnormality (temperature error) and automatically shut off the power.

b a

a: Exhaust vent / b: 20 cm/8" or greater

NOTE:

- In the above figure, it is assumed that there is sufficient space above the projector. There is also an intake vent on the back. Leave about 10 cm or more space behind, and even more space for installing the cables.

Please note that using this projector for the purpose of commercial gain or the attraction of public attention in a venue such as a coffee shop or hotel and employing compression or expansion of the screen image with the following functions may raise concern about the infringement of copyrights which are protected by copyright law.

9. Appendix

9-1. Setting Up the Screen and the Projector

Use this to get a general idea of what the screen size will be when set in a certain position, what size screen you will need, and what distance you will need to project images of the desired size.

The projection distance range at which focusing is possible is 0.68 m to 11.47 m. Install within this range.

| Projection distance (m) | Screen size (inch) | | ----------------------- | ------------------ | | 0 | 30 | | 1 | 40 | | 2 | 60 | | 3 | 80 | | 4 | 100 | | 5 | 120 | | 6 | 140 | | 7 | 160 | | 8 | 180 | | 9 | 200 | | 10 | 220 | | 11 | 240 | | 12 | 260 | | 1 | 30 | | 2 | 40 | | 3 | 60 | | 4 | 80 | | 5…

* The figures indicated for "height of screen from projector lens center" on the projection distance table are for a lens shift of 44% V.

Reading the Table

From the upper table on this page, to project wide images on a 150 screen, install at about 3.5 m from the front.

Also, from the lower table we can see that about 1.9 m are required from the projector's lens center to the upper edge of the screen. Use this to see whether or not enough height can be provided from the projector to the ceiling and for installing the screen. The diagram shows the projection distance when the projector is installed horizontally. The projected image can be moved up and down, left and right using the lens shift function. (→ page 24)

Lens shifting range

This projector is equipped with a lens shift function ( → page 24) for adjusting the image position using dials. Lens shifting is possible within the range shown below.

NOTE:

• In case lens shifted volume exceeds the below illustrated range, blur and shade may appear around ends of projected image.

Legend: V "Vertical" refers to the screen height and H "Horizontal" refers to the screen width. The lens shift range is expressed as a ratio of height and width, respectively.

Lens shifting range:

Vertical direction: +44%, -0%

Horizontal direction: ±20%

DESKTOP FRONT, DESKTOP REAR
20%H 20%H 100%H 44%V Width of projected image 100%V Height of projected image

CEILING FRONT, CEILING REAR
100%V 44%V Height of projected image Width of projected image 100%H20%H20%H

(Example) When using to project on a 150" screen

According to the "Table of screen sizes and dimensions" (→ page 88), H = 127.2"/323.1 cm, V = 79.5"/201.9 cm.

Adjustment range in the vertical direction: the projected image can be moved upwards 0.44 × 79.5''/201.9 cm ≈ 35.0''/89 cm (when the lens is at the center position).

Adjustment range in the horizontal direction: the projected image can be moved to the left 0.20 × 127.2''/323.1 cm ≈ 25.4''/65 cm, to the right approximately 25.4''/65 cm.

* Figures differ by several % because the calculation is approximate.

9-8. Troubleshooting

This section helps you resolve problems you may encounter while setting up or using the projector.

Common Problems & Solutions

Problem Check These Items
Does not turn on or shut downCheck that the power cord is plugged in and that the power button on the projector cabinet or the remote control is on. (→ pages 18, 20)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.The light module 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/1600 meters or higher. Using the projector at altitudes approximately 5500 feet/1600 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 54)If you turn on the projector immediately after the light module 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.In case it's hard to think the trouble is not caused on the above mentioned conditions, unplug the power cord from the outlet. Then wait 5 minutes before plugging it in again. (→ page 33)
Will turn offHave you set the time in [POWER MANAGEMENT] on the on-screen menu? (→ page 64)
No pictureCheck if the appropriate input is selected. (→ page 22) If there is still no picture, press the SOURCE button or one of the source buttons again.Ensure your cables are connected properly.Use menus to adjust the brightness and contrast. (→ page 48)Check that the AV-MUTE (image off) buttons are not pressed.Reset the settings or adjustments to factory preset levels using the [RESTORE FACTORY SETTINGS] in the Menu. (→ page 68)If the HDMI 1 IN or the HDMI 2 IN signal cannot be displayed, try the following.- Reinstall your driver for the graphics card built in your computer, or use the updated driver.For reinstalling or updating your driver, refer to the user guide accompanied with your computer or graphics card, or contact the support center for your computer manufacturer.Install the updated driver or OS on your own responsibility.We are not liable for any trouble and failure caused by this installation.Signals may not be supported depending on the HDBaseT transmission device. RS-232C cannot be used in certain cases as well.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.
Picture suddenly becomes darkA hot room may trigger the projector's protection functions, which can result in a temporary reduction in luminance (brightness). Reduce the temperature in the room.When the DYNAMIC CONTRAST function is enabled, the brightness may decrease depending on the image being displayed. (→ page 48)
Image isn't square to the screenReposition the projector to improve its angle to the screen. (→ page 23)Use the Keystone correction function to correct the trapezoid distortion. (→ page 29)
Picture is blurred • Adjust the focus. (→ page 26)• 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 87)• Has the lens been shifted by an amount exceeding the guaranteed range? (→ page 25)• 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.
The HDMI input signal is not projected correctly• The HDMI signal level may not be detected correctly. Check the signal level of the device connected to either the HDMI 1 or HDMI 2 input terminal and try changing the setting in [HDMI SETTINGS] in the on-screen menu under [SETUP(1)]. (→ page 56)
No sound • Is the volume turned down? (→ page 32)Or, is the [MUTE] function in the on-screen menu set to [ON]? (→ page 56)
Remote control does not work• Aim the remote control's infrared transmitter towards the projector's remote control receiver. (→ page 16)• Install new batteries.(→ page 15)• Make sure there are no obstacles between you and the projector.• Stand within 23 feet (7 m) of the projector. (→ page 16)• If a [CONTROL ID] has been set, check whether the ID number for the remote control matches the ID number for the projector. (→ page 67)
Indicator is lit or blinking• See the POWER/STATUS/LIGHT Indicator. (→ page 104)
