For the optional lamp, see the item “Optional Parts” of the Table 12. Before replacing the lamp, switch power OFF, remove the power cord from the power outlet, and wait approximately 45 minutes until the lamp has cooled. The lamp may explode if handled at high temperatures. Lamp Life Projector lamps have a finite life. The image will become darker, and hues will become weaker, after a lamp has been used for a long period of time. Replace the lamp if the LAMP indicator is red, or the CHANGE THE LAMP message appears when the projector is switched ON. See Table 9 of P.19 and Table 10 of P.20.

If the LAMP indicator is still red, replace the lamp. NOTE WARNING • For disposal of used lamp, treat according to the instruction of community authorities.

• Since the lamp is made of glass, do not apply shock to it and do not scratch it.

• Also, do not use old lamp. This could also cause explosion of the lamp.

• If it is probable that the lamp has exploded (explosive sound is heard), disconnect the power plug from the power outlet and ask your dealer to replace lamp. The lamp is covered by front glass, but in rare cases, the reflector and the inside of the projector may be damaged by scattered broken pieces of glass, and broken pieces could cause injury when being handled.

Connection to the Mouse Control This function needs the optional "RMU Accessory kit". If you need, ask your dealer. For how to use the kit, please read the manual of the kit.

• Before connecting, read the instruction manuals of the devices to be connected.

• In the case of notebook type computers with an internal pointing device, the mouse control function will not work unless the internal pointing device is disabled. In such case, disable the internal pointing device and change the BIOS setting to select an external mouse. Also, some computers may not have a utility program to operate a mouse. Refer to the computer hardware manual for detail. NOTETECHNICAL - 5 TECHNICAL

Requesting projector status (Get command) (1) Send the request code Header + Command data (‘02H’+‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) +‘00H’+‘00H’) from the computer to the projector. (2) The projector returns the response code ‘1DH’+ data (2 bytes) to the computer. Changing the projector settings (Set command) (1) Send the setting code Header + Command data (‘01H’+‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) + setting code (2 bytes)) from the computer to the projector. (2) The projector changes the setting based on the above setting code. (3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer. Using the projector default settings (Reset Command) (1) The computer sends the default setting code Header + Command data (‘06H’+‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) +‘00H’+‘00H’) to the projector. (2) The projector changes the specified setting to the default value. (3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer. Increasing the projector setting value (Increment command) (1) The computer sends the increment code Header + Command data (‘04H’+‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) +‘00H’+‘00H’) to the projector. (2) The projector in creases the setting value on the above setting code. (3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer. Decreasing the projector setting value (Decrement command) (1) The computer sends the decrement code Header + Command data (‘05H’+‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) +‘00H’ + ‘00H’) to the projector. (2) The projector decreases the setting value on the above setting code. (3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer. When a command sent by the projector cannot be understood by the computer When the command sent by the projector cannot be understood, the error command ‘15H’ is returned by the computer. Some times, the projector ignores RS-232C commands during other works. If the error command ‘15H’ is returned, please send the same command again. When data sent by the projector cannot be practice When the command sent by the projector cannot be practiced, the the error code ‘1cH’ +‘xxxxH’ is returned. When the data length is greater than indicated by the data length code, the projector will ignore the excess data code. Conversely, when the data length is shorter than indicated by the data length code, an error code will be returned to the projector.

• Operation cannot be guaranteed when the projector receives an undefined command or data.

Provide an interval of at least 40ms between the response code and any other code.

• The projector outputs test data when the power supply is switched ON, and when the lamp is lit. Ignore this data.

• Commands are not accepted during warm-up. NOTETECHNICAL - 7 TECHNICAL
