Important Operating Considerations for Safety
•

Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 15 degrees
off axis.

•

Locate the projector in a well-ventilated area without any obstructions
to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on a tablecloth or
other soft covering that may block the vents.

•

Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2 m) away from any heating or cooling
vents.

•

Use only InFocus-approved ceiling mounts.

•

Use only the power cord provided. A surge-protected power strip is
recommended.

•

Refer to this manual for proper startup and shutdown procedures.

•

In the unlikely event of the lamp rupturing, discard any edible items
placed in the surrounding area and thoroughly clean the area along all
sides of the projector. Wash hands after cleaning the area and handling
the ruptured lamp. This product has a lamp which contains a very
small amount of mercury. Dispose of it as required by local, state or
federal ordinances and regulations. For more information see
www.eiae.org.

.6m)
2 ft (

Do not place objects or people in the 2 foot (.6m) area along the front of the projector.
For ceiling mount applications, this area should be 5 feet (1.5m).

Follow these instructions to help ensure image quality and lamp life over
the life of the projector. Failure to follow these instructions may affect the
warranty. For complete details of the warranty, see the Warranty section at
the end of this User's Guide.

Projector and Device Connector Guide
The following illustration and table should help you find the connectors to use and obtain the best resolution possible from your input devices, such as computers, standard VCRs, DVD players (progressive and interlaced), HDTV sources, TV and satellite tuners, camcorders, video games (progressive and interlaced), and laser disc players.

Computer connections
Computer connections involve attaching the VGA and USB ends of the provided computer cable to a computer and connecting the other end (M1 cable end)
to the Computer In input on the projector. The USB part of the computer cable allows you to advance slides in a PowerPoint™ presentation via a remote
control. See page 10 for computer/projector setup information.

Video connections
The first step for connecting video is deciding what type of output connector you want to connect to the projector. If there is more than one output, select the
one with the highest quality. The best quality ranking, with 1 being the highest and 3 being the lowest, is:

1 component video (RCA)
2 S-video
3 audio/visual composite video (RCA)
If your video device has a VGA connector, you can use the DVI connector on the back of the projector for very high quality.

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. There is also an audio input via the red and white A/V connectors. You can connect the audio directly to the projector to get sound from
the built-in speaker, or you can connect the audio to your stereo system via
the Audio Out connector.
You can connect the projector to most video devices that can output video.
You cannot directly connect the coaxial cable that enters your house 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.

If you are 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. For example, 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 and 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 or Native
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.

Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. HDTV and
most DVDs are 16:9, which is the default for this projector. This projector is
not intended for use with 4:3 screens. When in 4:3 mode the projector places
black bars on both sides of the image. Native mode centers the image and
turns off the internal scaler so that any resolution larger than 854x480 is

Shutting down the projector

Troubleshooting your setup

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.

If your image appears correctly on the screen, skip to the next section. If it
does not, troubleshoot the setup.
The LED on top of the projector indicates the state of the projector and can
help you troubleshoot.

Screen Save
You can make the black screen appear after a preset number of minutes by
turning on the Screen Save feature in the Settings>System menu. See
page 38.

Power Save
The projector also has a Power Save feature that automatically turns the
lamp off after no active sources are detected and no user interaction with
the projector is performed for 20 minutes. By default, this feature is off. See
page 38.

Turning off the projector
You can turn the projector off simply by toggling the power switch to the off
position.
You can also press the remote’s Power button to place the projector in the
Off state while it is running. When the Power button is pressed twice (once
to start the power-down process and a second time to verify that you want
to power the projector off), the lamp turns off and the LED blinks green for
one (1) minute while the fans continue to run to cool the lamp. While the
LED is blinking green, the projector does not accept any keypad and remote
control input.
When the lamp has cooled, the LED lights solid green and the fans slow
down to minimal speed. To turn off the projector, toggle the power switch to
the off position.
NOTE: Once the projector has been toggled off, you must wait for one (1)
minute before turning the projector on again. This allows the lamp to properly cool. However, if the remote was used to power the projector to the Off
state you do not need to wait one minute to turn it on again.

The following tables show common problems. In some cases, more than one
possible solution is provided. Try the solutions in the order they are pre-

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.

Replacing the Projection Lamp
The lamp hours used timer in the About menu counts the number of hours
the lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the lamp life expires, the
message “Change lamp” appears on the screen at startup. If the maximum
lamp time is exceeded, the lamp will not light. In this case, after replacing
the lamp you must reset the lamp hours by simultaneously pressing both
Volume buttons on the keypad and holding them for 10 seconds.

Lamp hours used

turn off and unplug
projector

wait 30 minutes

NOTE: You can order new lamp housings from your dealer. See the Packing
list for information. Use only a replacement lamp with the same type and
rating as the original lamp.

1 Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
2 Wait 30 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.
3 Turn the projector on its side so that the lamp door is facing you. Using a
flat-blade screwdriver, gently pry the lamp door from the projector by
placing the screwdriver blade into the space between the top of the lamp
door and the projector.

4 Loosen the two captive screws that attach the lamp housing to the projector.

5 Detach the lamp connector from the projector by depressing the locking
tab on the connector and lightly pulling it free.
WARNING:
To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 30 minutes
before you replace the lamp.
Do not drop the lamp housing or touch the glass bulb! The glass
may shatter and cause injury.
Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the
unlikely event that the bulb ruptures, small glass fragments may be
generated. The lamp housing is designed to contain these fragments, but use caution when removing the lamp housing. Before
replacing the lamp, clean the lamp compartment and dispose of
cleaning materials. Wash hands after lamp replacement. This product has a lamp which contains a very small amount of mercury. Dispose of it as required by local, state or federal ordinances and
regulations. For more information see www.eiae.org.

6 Carefully remove the lamp housing. Dispose of the lamp in an environmentally proper manner.

7 Install the new lamp housing and tighten the screws.
8 Re-attach the lamp connector to the projector. The locking tab should
engage when the connector is fully plugged in.

9 Replace the lamp door.
10 Plug in the power cord and toggle the Power switch to turn the projector
back on.

11 To reset the lamp hour timer, navigate to the Settings>Service menu
and select Lamp Reset. See page 40 for details.

Cleaning the Lamp Housing Screens
In dirty or dusty environments, the two dust filter screens in the lamp housing can become clogged, causing high temperatures and premature lamp
failure. Routine maintenance to remove dust from the screens lowers the
lamp operating temperature and prolongs lamp life. To maximize lamp life
you should clean the screen at least every 250 hours depending upon environmental conditions. The dirtier or dustier the environment, the more
often you should clean the screens.

2 Examine the dust filter screens on the lamp housing. If necessary, use a
vacuum cleaner set on low power to clean the screens. Be careful not to
disturb any internal components when cleaning the screens.

3 Replace the lamp housing and lamp door.

Using the security lock

Red LED Behavior and Projector Errors
If the projector is not functioning properly and the LED is blinking red, consult Table 3 to determine a possible cause. There are two-second pauses
between the blinking cycles. Visit our website for more details on the red
LED error codes.

Table 3:
Red LED Behavior

Explanation

One (1) blink

The lamp won't strike after five (5)
attempts. Check the lamp and lamp door
installations for loose connections.

Two (2) blinks

The lamp counter hours have exceeded
lamp life hours. Replace the lamp and
reset the lamp hours counter.

Three (3) blinks

The projector has shut down. Check to
see if the lamp door is open. If the lamp
door is closed, toggle off the projector
and wait one minute, then toggle the projector on again. If the lamp does not strike
after one minute, replace the lamp. Contact Technical Support (see page 27) for
repair if replacing the lamp does not solve
the problem.

Four (4) blinks

The fan has failed. Contact Technical Support (see page 27) for repair or replacing
the fan.

Five (5) blinks

The projector is overheating. Check for a
blocked air vent (page 26) or clogged
lamp housing screen (page 42). Contact
Technical Support for repair if clearing the
vents/screens does not solve the problem.

THIS WARRANTY SETS FORTH INFOCUS' MAXIMUM LIABILITY FOR
ITS PRODUCT. THIS WARRANTY EXTENDS ONLY TO PRODUCTS PURCHASED FROM INFOCUS OR AN INFOCUS AUTHORIZED RESELLER.
InFocus shall have no further obligation under the foregoing Limited Warranty if the Product has been damaged due to abuse, misuse, neglect, smoke
exposure (cigarette or otherwise), accident, unusual physical or electrical
stress, unauthorized modifications (including use of an unauthorized
mount), tampering, alterations, or service other than by InFocus or its
authorized agents, causes other than from ordinary use or failure to properly use the Product in the application for which said Product was intended.

Limited Warranty
Subject to the Limitations, Exclusions and Disclaimers hereof, InFocus Corporation ("InFocus") warrants that the Projector, Lamps and Accessories
(hereinafter collectively or individually referred to as "Product" as appropriate) purchased from InFocus, an InFocus distributor, or an InFocus reseller
will conform to InFocus' specifications and be free from defects in material
or workmanship for the respective Limited Warranty period provided
below. InFocus does not warrant that the Product will meet the specific
requirements of the end-user customer.
If the Product while subject to this Limited Warranty, is defective in material
or workmanship during the warranty period, then InFocus, at its option,
will REPAIR or REPLACE the Product.

This Limited Warranty excludes Product cleaning, repair, or replacement of
plastics due to cosmetic damage and damage as a result of normal wear.
Product repair outside of the terms of the Limited Warranty will be on a
time and materials basis. Prolonged Product "demonstration" causes
unusual Product wear and is not considered normal use under the terms of
this Limited Warranty. The Accessory Product Limited Warranty covers the
accessory item only and excludes normal wear. The Lamp Product Limited
Warranty excludes expected lamp degradation.

All exchanged parts and Products replaced under this Limited Warranty
will become property of InFocus. InFocus' sole obligation is to supply (or
pay for) all labor necessary to repair the Product found to be defective
within the Limited Warranty period and to repair or replace defective parts
with new parts or, at the option of InFocus, serviceable used parts that are
equivalent or superior to new parts performance. Limited Warranty periods
are as follows:
•

Projector Product Limited Warranty Period (Excluding Lamps): Two
(2) years from date of purchase.

•

Lamp Product Limited Warranty Periods: From the date of Projector
Product purchase, the original installed lamp shall have a 90-day or 500
hours usage Limited Warranty Period, whichever comes first. Replacement Lamps purchased at the time of Projector Product purchase will
have a 90-day or 500 hours usage Limited Warranty Period from the
date of installation, whichever comes first. Replacement lamps purchased after the time of Projector Product purchase shall have a 90-day
or 500 hours usage Limited Warranty Period from the date of replacement lamp purchase, whichever comes first.

•

Remanufactured Products and Software Products are exempt from the foregoing Limited Warranty. Please refer to the appropriate Remanufactured
Product Limited Warranty or Software Product Limited Warranty for applicable Warranty information.
DISCLAIMER OF UNSTATED WARRANTIES
THE WARRANTY PRINTED ABOVE IS THE ONLY WARRANTY APPLICABLE TO THIS PRODUCT. ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR
PURPOSE ARE DISCLAIMED. THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES THAT
EXTEND BEYOND THE DISCRITPTION ON THE FACE HEREOF AND
THE FOREGOING WARRANTY SHALL NOT BE EXTENDED, ALTERED
OR VARIED EXCEPT BY WRITTEN INSTRUMENT SIGNED BY INFOCUS.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW
LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY MAY LAST, SO SUCH LIMITATIONS
MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

Accessory Product Limited Warranty Period: one (1) year from date of
purchase.

and freight), or the Purchaser must bear charges for the warranty repair.

Limited Warranty Period
The Limited Warranty periods hereof commence on the date of purchase by
the end-user customer. These Limited Warranty provisions shall apply only
to the end-user purchaser (first person or entity that purchased a new Product for personal or business use and not for the purpose of distribution or
resale). SOME JURISDICTIONS MAY GRANT YOU CONSUMER RIGHTS
WITH MINIMUM WARRANTY DURATION THAT DIFFER FROM THE
DURATIONS PROVIDED HEREIN, AND INFOCUS WILL HONOR ALL
SUCH CONSUMER RIGHTS.

No repair or replacement of Product or part thereof shall extend the Limited
Warranty period as to the entire Product. Warranty on the repair part and
workmanship shall only be effective for a period of ninety (90) days following the repair or replacement of that part or the remaining period of the
Product Limited Warranty whichever is greater.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
IT IS UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT INFOCUS' LIABILITY
WHETHER IN CONTRACT, IN TORT, UNDER ANY WARRANTY, IN
NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE RETURN OF
THE AMOUNT OF THE PURCHASE PRICE PAID BY PURCHASER AND
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL INFOCUS BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR
LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUES OR LOST SAVINGS. THE PRICE
STATED FOR THE PRODUCTS IS A CONSIDERATION IN LIMITING
INFOCUS' LIABILITY.

To Be Eligible For Limited Warranty Coverage
Any person exercising a claim under this Limited Warranty must establish
to the satisfaction of InFocus both the date of purchase and that the Product
was purchased new. The sales receipt or invoice, showing the date of purchase of the Product is the proof of the date of purchase.
To Obtain Warranty Service
During the Limited Warranty period, to exercise this Limited Warranty, the
purchaser must first contact 1) InFocus, 2) a service facility authorized by
InFocus or 3) the place of original purchase.

Limitation on Bringing Action - No action, regardless of form, arising out
of the agreement to purchase the Product may be brought by purchaser

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.

Replacing the Projection Lamp
The lamp hours used timer in the About menu counts the number of hours
the lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the lamp life expires, the
message “Change lamp” appears on the screen at startup. If the maximum
lamp time is exceeded, the lamp will not light. In this case, after replacing
the lamp you must reset the lamp hours by simultaneously pressing both
Volume buttons on the keypad and holding them for 10 seconds.
