Positioning the projector

To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment. Here are some general guidelines:

• Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The projector must be at least 4.9 feet (1.5m) from the projection screen.
• Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and within 6 feet (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase extension cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object.
• Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format determine the size of the projected image.
• The image exits the projector at a given angle. IN1100 image offset is 115%; IN1102 image offset is 112.4%. This means that if you have an image 10' high, the bottom of the image will be 1.5' (IN1100) and 1.24' (IN1102) above the center of the lens.

Connecting a video device

You can connect video devices such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video game consoles, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. You can connect the audio directly to the projector to get sound from the built-in speaker, or you can bypass the projector's audio system and connect the audio directly from your source to a stereo system.

You can connect the projector to most video devices that can output video. You cannot directly connect the coaxial cable that enters the building from a cable or satellite company, the signal must pass through a tuner first. Examples of tuners are digital cable boxes, VCRs, digital video recorders, and satellite TV boxes. Basically, any device that can change channels is considered a tuner.

Before connecting your projector, you should decide which aspect ratio you want to use. The projector's Aspect Ratio setting is accessed through the Resize button on the remote or through the projector's Basic Picture Menu. See page 28 for more information.

What is Aspect Ratio?

Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. TV screens are usually 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are 16:9. If you're projecting onto a screen, the size/shape of the screen may determine which aspect ratio to use. If you are projecting onto a blank wall, you don't have the screen size restriction. What you plan to project will also help you choose between 4:3 and 16:9. Most TV shows are 4:3, while most movies are 16:9.

If you have a 16:9 screen then you should select an aspect ratio of 16:9 for anamorphic movies or HDTV, and Native for 4:3 content. If you have a 4:3 screen you should still use 16:9 for anamorphic movies or HDTV, but you also have the option of using either 4:3 (to fill the screen) or Native (for direct pixel mapping) for 4:3 content. Keep in mind that anamorphic movies only appear correctly if the DVD player is set to output to a 16:9 television.

Video device connections

No video cables are provided with the projector. You can order cables from InFocus or provide your own.

Composite video connection

Plug the composite video cable's yellow connector into the video-out connector on the video device. Plug the other yellow connector into the yellow Video 2 connector on the projector.

Plug the white connector of a Mini-plug audio Y-cable into the left audio out connector on the video device and plug the red connector into the right audio out connector on the video device. Plug the other end of the cable into the Audio In connector on the projector.

Keep in mind that video output from composite connections is not as high quality as S-video.

S-video connection

If your video device uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, plug an S-video cable into the S-video connector on your video device and into the Video I connector on the projector. Use the audio cable as described above.

Keep in mind that S-video delivers higher quality video output than composite.

VESA connection

If your video device has a 15-pin VGA output, plug one end of the included computer cable into the VGA connector on your video source. This connector may be labeled "To Monitor" on the video source. Plug the computer cable into the Computer 2 connector on the projector.

Component video connection

If your HD video device has component connectors, an optional Component to VESA adapter can be used. Plug the component cable into the video device. Plug the other end of the component cable into the adapter and plug the adapter into the Computer 2 connector. Component offers the highest quality video output.

Shutting down the projector

The projector automatically displays a black screen after no active source is detected for 30 minutes. This black screen helps preserve the life of the projector. The image returns when an active source is detected or a remote or keypad button is pressed.

Screen Save Time

You can make the black screen appear after a preset number of minutes by turning on the Screen Save Time feature in the Setup menu. See page 30.

Auto Off Time

The projector also has an Auto Off Time feature that automatically turns the projector off after no active sources are detected and no user interaction with the projector is performed for 30 minutes. By default, this feature is off. You can change the length of time, see page 30.

Turning off the projector

To turn the projector off, press the Power button on the remote or keypad. The lamp turns off and the LED blinks amber for 1 minute while the fans continue to run to cool the lamp. When the lamp has cooled, the LED lights amber and the fans stop. Unplug the power cable to completely power off the projector.

Troubleshooting your setup

If your image appears correctly on the screen, skip to the next section. If it does not, troubleshoot the setup.

The Status Indicator Panel on top of the projector indicates the state of the projector and can help you troubleshoot.

BrilliantColor™: produces an expanded on-screen color spectrum that delivers enhanced color saturation for bright, true-to-life images. Choose Normal Look for most video sources and Bright Look for most computer sources.

White Peaking: (video sources only) increases the brightness of whites that are near 100%.

Color Temperature: changes the intensity of the colors. Select a listed relative warmth value.

Force wide: This feature is to help with image-locking problems when the correct mode cannot be determined. If this feature is off and the exact resolution mode cannot be determined, the analog locking algorithms will use a 4:3 mode for the image. If this feature is on and the exact mode cannot be determined, the analog locking algorithms choose the best-matched wide mode (either 16:9 or 16:10) for the image.

Overscan: removes noise around the video image.

Phase: adjusts the horizontal phase of a computer source.

Sync Threshold: (progressive signals only) If a hardware device, such as a DVD player, is not syncing properly with the projector, select this option to help it to sync when connected to the projector.

Tracking: adjusts the vertical scan of a computer source.

Color Space: This option applies to computer and component video sources. It allows you to select a color space that has been specifically tuned for the input signal. When Auto is selected, the projector automatically determines the standard. To choose a different setting, turn off Auto, then choose RGB for computer sources or choose either REC709 or REC601 for component video sources.

Gamma: select the appropriate gamma from among Video, Film, Bright, and CRT.

Horizontal/Vertical Position: adjusts the position of a computer source.

Blank Key: Select what to display when the blank key on the remote is depressed: your custom snapshot, a solid color screen (blue, black or white), the factory logo screen, a timer, or test patterns. The timer option is useful for classroom tests or break times during meetings.

AC Power On: when this feature is on, the projector automatically turns on when electrical power is connected.

Auto Off Time: automatically turns the projector off after no signals are detected for a preset number of minutes. If an active signal is received before the projector powers down, the image will be displayed.

Screen Save Time: automatically blanks the screen with a black color after no signals are detected for a preset number of minutes. The image returns when an active source is detected or a remote or keypad button is pressed.

Lamp Low Power: toggles between on and off. Turn it on to lower the light output of the lamp. This also lowers the fan speed, making the projector quieter.

Power Sounds: controls whether the projector makes a sound when powered on and off.

Auto Source: when this feature is On, the projector automatically finds the active source, checking the selected Power-up Source first. When this feature is Off, the projector defaults to the source selected in Power-up Source.

Setup menu

Power-up Source: determines which source the projector checks first for active video during power-up.

Video Standard: when this feature is set to Auto, the projector attempts to automatically pick the video standard based on the input signal it receives. (The video standard options may vary depending on your region of the world.) If the projector is unable to detect the correct standard, the colors may not look right or the image may appear "torn." If this happens, manually select a video standard by selecting NTSC, PAL, or SECAM from the Video Standard menu.

Closed Captions: controls closed caption display while audio is not muted. If this setting is not off, and audio is not muted, and the source is NTSC and contains captions on the selected channel, then the projector must display caption text overlaid on the image.

Rear Project: reverses the image so you can project from behind a translucent screen.

Auto Keystone: automatically adjusts vertical image.

Prevent PC Screen Saver: prevents your computer from going into Screen Save mode. The projector must be connected to the PC via a USB cable for this feature to work.

Search Screen: allows you to display a blank screen instead of the default screen at startup, and when no source is detected.

Show Messages: displays status messages (such as "Searching") in the lower-left corner of the screen.

Menu Offset: allows you to change the position of the On Screen Display items.

Menu Transparency: allows you to change how much of the projected image behind the menu you can see. As the value increases, more of the image behind the menu is visible.

Magnify Controls: determines whether the select key can be used to change magnify settings when the OSD menu is not visible.

PIN Protect: the PIN (personal identification number) feature allows you to password protect your projector. Once you enable the PIN feature, you must enter the PIN before you can project an image. The default PIN on this projector is Menu-Up-Down-Select-Source. Use the navigation buttons on the remote or keypad to enter the correct 5-button press sequence. When all 5 numbers are entered correctly, press the Select button on the remote or keypad to select OK. If the message "Wrong PIN" appears, verify the code and re-enter it. If you mis-enter a number, you must enter 5 numbers and press the Select button in order to access the "Wrong PIN" message and re-enter the code.

To enter the PIN at projector startup:

Power up the projector. The "Enter PIN" dialog box appears after the startup screen. Enter the PIN. Use the navigation buttons on the remote or

keypad to enter the correct button press sequence. See the description above for instructions.

To change the PIN:

Select "Change PIN..." in the Setup menu. Enter the existing PIN. Enter the new PIN. You can navigate between OK and Cancel by pressing the up and down buttons on the keypad. Select OK or Cancel by pressing the Select button. Verify the new PIN.

If you lose or forget your custom PIN:
