Audio: allows adjustments to the volume and balance, and turns the projector's startup Chime on and off.

Sources: allows you to assign a particular input to a specific source key when using an optional remote. Also allows selection of a default Power-up Source and enables or disables Autosource.

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

Sources>Autosource: When Autosource is not checked, the projector defaults to the source selected in Power-up Source. If no source is found, a blank screen displays. When Autosource is checked, Power-up Source determines which source the projector defaults to at startup. If no signal is present, the projector checks the sources in order until a source is found or until power down. When Autosource is selected, the Source Enable feature indicates which sources the projector attempts to lock onto. You can use the Source Enable feature to eliminate certain sources from this search, which will speed the search. By default, the check boxes for all sources are checked. Uncheck a source box to eliminate it from the search. When Autosource is not checked, the projector defaults to Computer 1 initially, then defaults to whatever source is selected in the Power-up Source menu. To display another source, you must manually select one by pressing the Source button on the remote or keypad. This cycles through all the sources that are selected in the Source Enable menu.

System>OSD Offset: allows you to change the position of the On Screen Display items.

Rear: reverses the image so you can project from behind a translucent screen. Ceiling: turns the image upside down for ceiling-mounted projection.

Low Power: Turn this on to lower the light output of the lamp. This also lowers the fan speed, making the projector quieter.

PIN feature

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.

To use this feature, you must register your projector at www.infocus.com/register and follow the instructions there to get a default PIN. The PIN consists of a sequence of 5 navigation button presses. The navigation buttons are menu, select, up arrow and down arrow. Once you have this PIN, select Enable PIN in the Service menu. The Enter PIN dialog box appears.

Use the navigation buttons on the remote or keypad to enter the correct button press sequence. After pressing the first button, a dot appears in the current PIN slot and the highlighted cursor moves to the right one slot. When all 5 numbers are entered correctly, press the Select button on the remote or keypad to select OK. If the message "Incorrect 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 "Incorrect 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. If you lose or forget your PIN, go to www.infocus.com/pin.

To change the PIN:

Select "Change PIN" in the Service 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.

To reset the PIN back to the default:

Power up the projector. After the "Enter PIN" dialog box appears, press and hold the Select button down for 10 seconds. Enter the default PIN to use the projector. If you lose or forget your default PIN, go to www.infocus.com/pin.

Maintenance

Cleaning the lens

1 Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner to a soft, dry cloth.

Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner, and don't apply the cleaner directly to the lens. Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals might scratch the lens.

2 Lightly wipe the cleaning cloth over the lens in a circular motion. If you don't intend to use the projector immediately, replace the lens cap.

Using the security lock

The projector has a security lock for use with a cable lock system. Refer to the information that came with the lock for instructions on how to use it.

Replacing the projection lamp

The lamp hour timer in the Service Info menu counts the number of hours the lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the specified end of the lamp's life, the message "Replace lamp" briefly appears on the screen at each startup. When the expected lamp life has been reached, the Lamp indicator icon lights red (page 12).

NOTE: You can order new lamp housings from www.infocus.com (in select areas), your retailer or your dealer. Only InFocus lamps are tested and certified for use in this projector. InFocus is not liable for the performance, safety or certification of any other lamps. The use of other lamps violates the projector warranty and voids all certification marks on this projector.

I Turn off the projector and unplug the power cable.

2 Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.

3 Turn the projector upside down and remove the lamp door by placing a flat-blade screwdriver into the space between the lamp door and the projector and gently prying the door off.

4 Loosen the captive screw on the lamp module.

WARNINGS:

• To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before you replace the lamp.
• Only InFocus lamps are tested with this projector. Use of other lamps may cause electrical shock and fire.
• Unplug the power cord before replacing the lamp.
• Do not drop the lamp module. The glass may shatter and cause injury.
• Do not touch the glass lamp screen. Fingerprints can obscure projection sharpness.
