Safety instructions for ceiling mounting of the projector

We want you to have a pleasant experience using your projector, so we need to bring this safety matter to your attention to prevent damage to person and property.

If you intend to mount your projector on the ceiling, we strongly recommend that you use a proper fitting projector ceiling mount kit and that you ensure it is securely and safely installed.

If you use an inappropriate projector ceiling mount kit, there is a safety risk that the projector may fall from the ceiling due to an improper attachment through the use of the wrong gauge or length screws.

You can purchase a projector ceiling mount kit from the place you purchased your projector. We recommends that you also purchase a separate Kensington lock compatible security cable and attach it securely to both the Kensington lock slot on the projector and the base of the ceiling mount bracket. This will perform the secondary role of restraining the projector should its attachment to the mounting bracket become loose.

The projector integrates high-performance optical engine projection and a user-friendly design to deliver high reliability and ease of use.

The projector offers the following features.

+ Dynamic PC and Dynamic Movie function adjusting the power consumption of the lamp according to the brightness of the image being projected

+ Smart Eco function decreasing the power consumption of the lamp by up to 70% when no input signal can be detected for a set period of time.

+ Presentation timer for better control of time during presentations

+ Support 3D DLP Link

+ Color management allowing color adjustments to your liking

+ Less than IW power consumption when power saving mode is turned on

+ Screen Color correction allowing projection on surfaces of several predefined colors

+ Quick auto search speeding up the signal detecting process

+ Up'to 10 sets of picture modes providing multiple choices for different projection purposes

+ One-key auto-adjustment to display the best picture quality

+ Digital keystone correction to correct distorted images

+ Adjustable color balance control for data/video display

+ High brightness projection lamp

+ Ability to display 1.07 billion colors

+ Multi-language On-Screen Display (OSD) menus

+ Switchable normal and economic modes to reduce the power consumption

+ Component HDTV compatibility (YPbPr)

CT * The apparent brightness of the projected image will vary depending on the ambient

lighting conditions, selected input signal contrast/brightness settings, and is directly proportional to projection distance.

+ The lamp brightness will decline over time and may vary within the lamp manufacturers specifications. This is normal and expected behavior.

+ To use this connection method when the projector is in standby mode, turn on the Active VGA Out function under the SYSTEM SETUP: Advanced > Standby Settings menu.

Connecting Video source devices

You can connect your projector to various Video source devices that provide any one of the following output sockets:

+ HDMI + Component Video + S-Video

You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the above connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality. The method you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching terminals on both the projector and the Video source device as described below:

The best available video connection method is HDMI. If your source device is equipped with a HDMI socket, you can enjoy uncompressed digital video quality.

See "Connecting an HDMI device" on page 19 for how to connect the projector to a HDMI source device and other details.

If no HDMI source is available, the next best video signal is Component video (not to be confused with composite video). Digital TV tuner and DVD players output Component video natively, so if available on your devices, this should be your connection method of choice in preference to (composite) video.

See "Connecting a Component Video source device" on page 19 for how to connect the projector to a component video device.

Better video quality

The S-Video method provides a better quality analog video than standard composite Video. If you have both composite Video and S-Video output terminals on your Video source device, you should elect to use the S-Video option.
