Notes to Users Viewing 3D Images

Pay attention to the following points when viewing images using 3D glasses with the projector:

- You need 3D glasses to view 3D images. The projector uses DLP Link technology to synchronize with 3D glasses. You need to use the optional 3D glasses that support DLP Link (RICOH PJ 3D Glasses Type 2).

- How 3D images are viewed may vary according to the individual.

- Do not use 3D glasses for viewing any material other than 3D images.

- Before viewing 3D images, make sure to read the manuals provided with your 3D glasses and 3D compatible content.

- Avoid viewing 3D images for a long period of time. Take a break of 15 minutes or longer after every hour of viewing.

- If you feel sick while viewing 3D images, stop viewing them. If you continue to feel sick, consult a doctor.

  • When viewing 3D images in a room where an LED lighting system or fluorescent lights are used, you may feel that the light in the room flickers. If this is the case, dim the lights until you do not notice any flickers, or turn off the lights.
  • If you or any member of your family has a history of light-sensitive seizures, consult a doctor before viewing 3D images.
    • To view 3D images, sit in front of the screen so that your eyes are parallel and level with the screen.
  • Viewing 3D images from a place that is too close to the screen may result in eye strain. The distance between the screen and you should be at least three times the height of the screen.
  • Adult supervision is required for children using 3D glasses.

Precautions for Using a Wireless LAN

RICOH PJ WX4240N - Precautions for Using a Wireless LAN - 1

WARNING

- Do not use a wireless LAN if there is electromagnetic interference from other equipment. Doing so may cause an accident due to the other equipment malfunctioning from the electromagnetic interference.

Wireless uses radio waves to exchange information instead of an Ethernet cable. The wireless LAN radio waves pass through barriers such as walls within a fixed area, so the following problems may occur:

Leak of Personal Information

• Information such as IDs, passwords, credit card numbers, and the contents of e-mails, etc., may be stolen by a third party.

Illegal Access to the Network

• Data and systems may be corrupted or manipulated by a virus.
- An imposter may access information illegally.
- Confidential information may be accessed illegally.

To minimize the possibility of these problems occurring, it is recommended to check the functions built into the wireless LAN devices, such as the projector and wireless LAN access points, and to specify security settings.

RICOH PJ WX4240N - Illegal Access to the Network - 1

Note

- If the wireless network reception is poor, the connection may be interrupted or disabled. If the wireless reception of the projector and access points is poor, try the following:

- Move the projector and access points closer to each other.

• Make sure there is a clear line of sight between the access point and the projector.

- Make sure the access point and projector are close to each other, and move devices that emit radio signals such as microwave ovens further away.

- The projector supports 40 MHz channels only in the 5 GHz band.

Connecting the Projector to a Network

To connect the projector to a network, you must specify network settings such as an IP address. The required settings differ depending on the network environment and how you use the projector.

You can configure the required settings easily by using the network setting wizard.

To connect to a wired LAN

Connect an Ethernet cable to the projector, and then configure the network settings in [Wired LAN] on the [Network Setting Wizard] screen. For details about how to configure the wired LAN network settings, see page 63 "Configuring the Wired LAN Settings".

To connect to a wireless LAN in infrastructure mode

In infrastructure mode, the projector can communicate with networks in which both wireless and wired LAN devices are connected via a wireless LAN access terminal. It is necessary to user greater security since all communication is via a network. Use infrastructure mode in environments in which a wireless LAN has already been configured.

Configure the network settings in [Wireless LAN (Infrastructure)] on the [Network Setting Wizard] screen. The setting method differs depending on the network environment.

  • Configuring the settings by Simple Wireless LAN Setup If the access point is compliant with the simple wireless LAN setup function, you can configure the network settings easily. This function acquires the wireless LAN settings registered in the access point, and configures those settings for the projector automatically. You can configure the settings without entering the SSID and the network key manually. For details, see page 64 "Configuring the settings by Simple Wireless LAN Setup".
  • Configuring the settings manually You can configure the network settings by selecting the network to connect to from the available network list. Up to 10 networks are displayed in the list in radio field intensity order.

If you want to connect to a network that is not displayed in the list or is not broadcasting its SSID, enter the SSID manually. For details, see page 65 "Configuring the settings manually".

To connect to a wireless LAN in ad hoc mode

In ad hoc mode, the projector can communicate with the computer directly, and not via an access point. No other equipment is required, so this mode is suited for locations that have no network environment. As the radio wave range is limited, use an office or conference room with a good line of sight.

Configure the network settings in [Wireless LAN (Adhoc)] on the [Network Setting Wizard] screen. For details about how to configure the network settings for a wireless LAN in ad hoc mode, see page 67 "Configuring the Wireless LAN Settings for Ad Hoc Mode".

To project a file on the server, you must configure the required settings for the projector and the server. For details about the settings for using the projection server function, see page 71 "Using the Projection Server Function". For details about the settings for using the DLNA server function, see page 73 "Using the DLNA Server Function".

RICOH PJ WX4240N - Using the Server Function - 1

Note

  • The supported video file types are compliant with the projector's own specifications. They are not compliant with the DLNA 1.5 guidelines.
  • The maximum number of files that can be displayed in the list is 512 per folder.

  • Characters that can be used for file names and folder names are single-byte letters and numbers and characters used in the language specified in [Language] under [Default Settings 2]. If characters for languages other than the language specified are used, the file name or folder name will not be displayed properly.

  • If the total number of characters in the file name and the path exceeds 255, the file cannot appear on the list.
  • Data in a folder that is stored six levels or more into a hierarchy cannot be accessed.

Using the Projection Server Function

The projector accesses the network server to project JPEG files saved on the server.

You do not need to carry a storage device or computer that has the files to be used. Therefore, it is useful to protect information.

Accessing folders on the server can be controlled by registering an access number.

Configuring the network server

A network server on which IIS (Internet Information Services) is installed can be used as a projection server.

The operating environment of the projection server function is described below:

  • Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard (32-bit version) SP2 and IIS 6
    IIS 6 is not provided with a URL rewrite module. Use a URL rewrite module provided by a third party.
  • Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard (64-bit version) SP1 and IIS 7
    Install the URL Rewrite Module that can be downloaded from Microsoft Download Center. If the ASP (Active Server Pages) Execution Environment is not available on the network server, install the ASP module.

The following settings are required on the network server that is used as a projection server:

Creating a virtual directory

Create a directory (virtual directory) that the projector accesses on the network server.

Register the alias name and directory path of the virtual directory by following the wizard instructions. For detailed procedures, see the Microsoft website.

  • Alias name
    An alias name is required when the projector accesses the virtual directory.
    The settings must be configured in [Projection Server Settings] under [Network Application Settings]. For details, see page 72 "Connecting the projector to the projection server".

- Directory path

This is a path for the directory in which files projected by the projector are stored.

To store files converted by JPEG Conversion Tool on the network server, register the directory path. For details, see JPEG Conversion Tool Help.

If you restrict access to the projection server with an access number, create a folder whose name is the number that you specify as the access number. After this, store the files to be projected in the folder. To project the files stored in the folder, enter the access number when accessing the projection server.

Storing the folder management file for the projection server

The folder management file for the projection server is stored in the "Projection Server" folder on the supplied CD-ROM. Copy the folder management file to the virtual directory on the network server.

Registering a URL rewrite rule

Using a URL rewrite module, register a rule to rewrite "original characters" to "rewritten characters":

  • Original characters: ^alias name of the virtual directory/(.*)
  • Rewritten characters: /alias name of the virtual directory/name of the folder management file If you use IIS 7, and if the alias name is "ABC" and the folder management file name is "xyz.asp", the characters become the following:
    • Original characters: ^ABC/(.*)
  • Rewritten characters: /ABC/xyz.asp

Connecting the projector to the projection server

Configure the settings for the projection server in [Projection Server Settings] under [Network Application Settings] beforehand.

- Server URL

Enter the projection server URL and the alias name of the virtual directory in the following format:

Projection server URL/alias name/{n}

If the projection server URL is "http://hostname" and the alias name is "document", enter "http://hostname/document".

An IP address can be used as the projection server URL.

If you select [Access No.] in [Access Restriction Type], add "/{n}" at the end of the Server URL.

Specify other settings in [Projection Server Settings], if necessary.

RICOH PJ WX4240N - Connecting the projector to the projection server - 1

Note

  • To use the projection server function, you must specify the network settings in advance. For details, see page 62 "Connecting the Projector to a Network".
  • For details about how to change the settings, see page 81 "Using the Menu Screen". For details about the setting items, see page 107 "Network Application Settings Menu".

Using the DLNA Server Function

The projector is compatible with DLNA. DLNA is the guideline for sharing content on a network.

Therefore, the projector can access DLNA-compatible devices such as file servers, tablet computers, or smartphones and project JPEG files stored on them.

To access to DLNA-compatible devices from the projector, the projector and the DLNA-compatible devices must be connected to a network. For details about how to connect the projector to a network, see page 62 "Connecting the Projector to a Network".

To project files on the DLNA-compatible device, you must configure the file sharing settings on the device. For details about how to use DLNA-compatible devices, see the manuals provided with the DLNA-compatible devices.

7. Maintenance

This chapter explains the operating precautions and maintenance for the projector.

Operating Precautions

CAUTION

  • The product's light uses a mercury vapor lamp that becomes high pressure when it is turned on. The lamp has the following characteristics, so be sure to handle it with care after understanding the contents.
  • Deterioration or shock can cause the lamp's life span to end or the lamp to explode. If the lamp explodes, it may make a big noise.
  • The time that it takes for the lamp to reach its life span or explode depends on each individual lamp and its operating conditions. It is possible that it might explode the first time it is used.
  • If you use the lamp past its replacement period, the possibility of explosion increases.
  • If the lamp explodes, broken glass pieces may be scattered around the inside of the product and ejected from the vent or other opening.
  • If the lamp explodes, a very small amount of mercury vapor in the lamp tube and broken glass pieces may be ejected from the vents or other opening.

CAUTION

• What to do if a lamp has exploded

  • If the lamp explodes, remove the power cord from the product, leave the room while making sure it is thoroughly ventilated.
  • If the lamp explodes and you think that you have gotten glass particles or mercury vapor in your eyes or have inhaled either, contact a doctor immediately.
  • Clean up the area around the product completely while being careful not to get injured from any broken glass pieces.
  • Throw away any food that was near the product.
  • Ask your service representative to replace the lamp and inspect the product.

Pay attention to the following points when using the projector:

  • When you carry the projector by hand, hold it with both hands and keep it in a horizontal position. If you hold the projector with one hand, its covers may come off or you may drop it.
  • If moving the projector under conditions including vibration and shock, use both the packing case and included carrying bag. Transporting the projector using the carrying bag only may damage it

due to shock or vibration. Further, transporting the projector in a damaged packing case may damage the projector, so use a packing case that is in good condition.

- Do not apply volatile substances such as insecticide to the projector. Also, do not bring the projector into long-term contact with rubber or vinyl products. Doing so may cause discoloration or the paint to peel.

- The projector is not intended for long-term continuous operation. Further, remove the projector from the packing case before using. If a malfunction occurs when using the projector under these conditions, a fee is charged for repair even if the warranty is still in effect.

- Do not use locations that may be hot, such as near a heater. Doing so may cause the projector to malfunction or reduce the service life.

- Avoid locations that may become smoky. Particulates may adhere to the optical parts, reducing the service life and causing the image to darken.

- Using the projector close to a television or radio may adversely affect the images and sound. If this happens, move the projector away from the television or radio.

- Moving the projector from a low-temperature location to a high-temperature location may cause water droplets to form on the projector lens and parts due to condensation. Continued use under such conditions may cause malfunction, so do not use the projector until the water droplets have evaporated.

- The air is thin at high elevations, so the cooling efficiency of the projector is reduced. Select [On] in [High Altitude Mode] before using.

- Do not use the projector in an extremely inclined position (±20° or greater). Doing so may cause malfunction or reduce the service life.

- Do not use benzene or paint thinners. Doing so may cause the projector to warp, discolor, or the paint to peel. Further, do not use cleaning cloths that contain chemicals.

Cleaning the Projector

WARNING

  • Do not remove any covers or screws that are not mentioned in this manual. There are high voltage components inside the product that may cause electric shock. Contact your service representative if any of the product's internal components require maintenance, adjustment, or repair.
  • Do not disassemble or modify the product. Doing so may cause injury or malfunction.

WARNING

  • Contact your sales or service representative to clean or replace parts for a projector that is installed on a wall or ceiling.
  • Do not attempt to clean or replace parts for a projector that is installed in a high location on a wall or ceiling. Doing so may cause it to fall down, resulting in an injury.
  • Do not open the lamp cover of a projector that is installed on a wall or ceiling. Doing so may cause the lamp cover to fall down. If the lamp is broken, pieces of glass may fall and cause an injury.

CAUTION

- When performing maintenance on the machine, always disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.

Cleaning the Lens

When cleaning the lens, make sure to do the following:

- Use a commercially available blower or cloth for cleaning glass, cleaning paper, plastic lens cleaner, etc.

- The lens surface scratches easily, so do not rub or tap it with a hard object.

Cleaning the Projector

When cleaning the projector, make sure to do the following:

  • Disconnect the power plug before cleaning.
  • Gently wipe any dirt from the projector using a soft cloth. Using a damp cloth may cause water to seep inside the projector and cause electric shock or malfunction.

- Do not use benzene or paint thinners. Doing so may cause the projector to warp, discolor, or the paint to peel. Further, do not use cleaning cloths that contain chemicals.

Replacing the Lamp

WARNING

  • Before replacing the lamp, turn off the power and wait at least one hour to allow the product to cool completely. If it is not completely cool, you may burn or injure yourself due to the inside of the product and lamp unit being hot. If you replace the lamp without unplugging the power cord from the power outlet, electric shock or explosion may occur.
  • Be careful when handling the used lamp so that it does not break. If it breaks, it may cause injury.

WARNING

- Contact your sales or service representative to clean or replace parts for a projector that is installed on a wall or ceiling.

  • Do not attempt to clean or replace parts for a projector that is installed in a high location on a wall or ceiling. Doing so may cause it to fall down, resulting in an injury.
  • Do not open the lamp cover of a projector that is installed on a wall or ceiling. Doing so may cause the lamp cover to fall down. If the lamp is broken, pieces of glass may fall and cause an injury.

CAUTION

- Be sure to always use a dedicated replacement lamp that is new when replacing the lamp. If you use a lamp that is not dedicated, it may result in an explosion and injury.

CAUTION

- The product's light uses a mercury vapor lamp that becomes high pressure when it is turned on. The lamp has the following characteristics, so be sure to handle it with care after understanding the contents.

  • Deterioration or shock can cause the lamp's life span to end or the lamp to explode. If the lamp explodes, it may make a big noise.
  • The time that it takes for the lamp to reach its life span or explode depends on each individual lamp and its operating conditions. It is possible that it might explode the first time it is used.
  • If you use the lamp past its replacement period, the possibility of explosion increases.
  • If the lamp explodes, broken glass pieces may be scattered around the inside of the product and ejected from the vent or other opening.
  • If the lamp explodes, a very small amount of mercury vapor in the lamp tube and broken glass pieces may be ejected from the vents or other opening.

CAUTION

• What to do if a lamp has exploded

- If the lamp explodes, remove the power cord from the product, leave the room while making sure it is thoroughly ventilated.

- If the lamp explodes and you think that you have gotten glass particles or mercury vapor in your eyes or have inhaled either, contact a doctor immediately.

- Clean up the area around the product completely while being careful not to get injured from any broken glass pieces.

- Throw away any food that was near the product.

- Ask your service representative to replace the lamp and inspect the product.

Important

- The lamp is a glass product. Do not touch the glass surface with bare hands, hit it forcefully, or damage it.

- This projector's lamp contains trace amounts of environmentally harmful inorganic mercury. Be careful not to break used lamps, and dispose of them in accordance with local regulations or contact your sales representative or service representative.

When the lamp is due for replacement, the message "The lamp is reaching the end of its life. Please change it." is displayed. Change the lamp as instructed.

When [Lamp Power] in [Energy Saving Settings] is specified as [Maximum], replace the lamp after approximately 3,500 hours. When the setting is [Low], replace it after approximately 5,000 hours. However, depending on the characteristics of the lamp and how the lamp is used, the image may become dim or the lamp may go out before the message is displayed. We recommend preparing a spare lamp, just in case.

Do not repeatedly turn off the projector immediately after the lamp is lit, or turn on the projector immediately after turning it off. Doing so may damage the lamp or shorten its life.

Furthermore, if the lamp is used for an extended period of time, the image may darken or the lamp may burn out. If this happens, replace the lamp with a new one.

You need a Phillips screwdriver to replace the lamp.
