Setting up your projector

Setting up the screen

Install the screen perpendicularly to the projector. If the screen can not be installed in such a way, adjust the projection

angle of the projector. (See page 12.)

Install the screen and projector so that the projector’s lens is placed at the same height and horizontal position of

the screen center.

Do not install the screen where it is exposed to direct sunlight or lighting. Light directly reflecting on the screen

makes the projected images washed-out and hard to view.

SCREEN SIZE

You can keep the image display area within the screen by setting SCREEN SIZE in the ADVANCED MENU of IMAGE

menu according to the aspect ratio of the actual screen. Select 16:9 when the aspect ratio of the screen is 16:9 or 4:3,

and select CINEMA SCOPE (2.35:1) when the aspect ratio is 2.35:1 (CinemaScope).

When setting SCREEN SIZE to CINEMA SCOPE (2.35:1):

CinemaScope size movies are projected in the full screen.

Set ASPECT in the FEATURE menu to 16:9 when displaying Vista-size images. In this case, they are squeezed

horizontally.

When ASPECT in the FEATURE menu is set to AUTO and 480i/p, 576i/p, 720p, or 1080i/p signal is input, the part

for displaying subtitles is not projected. To display subtitles, reset SCREEN SIZE to 16:9 and adjust the image

position using VERTICAL LOCATION in the ADVANCED MENU of the IMAGE menu. (To display the menu on the

screen, adjust SHUTTER(U) in the SIGNAL - USER menu to position the menu.)

Setting up your projector (continued)

Correcting skewed or distorted image

For the best projection, project images on a flat screen installed at 90 degrees to

the floor. If necessary, tilt the projector using the two adjustment feet on the bottom

of the projector.

Tilt up the projector to the appropriate angle.

Rotate the adjustment feet for fine adjustment.

Important:

Don’t transport the projector with its adjustment feet extended. Otherwise the adjustment feet may be damaged.

When fine streaks are seen on projected images

This is due to interference with the screen surface and is not a malfunction. Replace the screen or displace the focus a

little. (See page 18 or 23 for focus adjustment.)

When projected images are distorted to a trapezoid

When the screen and the projector are not placed perpendicularly to each other, projected images become

trapezoidal. If you cannot make the projector and the screen perpendicular to each other by mechanical adjustments,

adjust keystone.

With the INSTALLATION menu:

(See page 26 for menu setting.)

Display the INSTALLATION menu.

Select KEYSTONE by pressing the p or q button.

Equalize the widths at the top and bottom of the screen by pressing the t

or u button, viewing the screen.

To cancel the menu:

Press the MENU button several times.

When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the adjustment value is indicated. Note that this value doesn’t mean a

projection angle.

The allowable range of the adjustment value in the keystone adjustment varies depending on the installation

condition, Input signal and aspect settings in MENU.

When the keystone adjustment takes effect, the resolution decreases. In addition, stripes may appear or straight

lines may bend in images with complicated patterns. They are not due to product malfunctions.

When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the image may not be displayed correctly because of the type of input

signal.

When the keystone adjustment is performed, the displayed image may be distorted.

Depending on the installation conditions of the projector and the screen, a perfect rectangular image and the proper

aspect ratio may not be obtained.

Press the POWER button on the projector or ON ( I ) button on the remote control.

It may take about one minute for the lamp to light up.

The lamp fails to light up on rare occasions. In such a case, wait for a few minutes and then try again.

Do not cover the lens with the lens cap while the lamp is on.

After the POWER button is pressed, the image may flicker before the lamp becomes stable. This is not a product

malfunction.

The STANDARD lamp mode is activated by default whenever the projector is turned on. When the LOW LAMP

MODE has been chosen, the default STANDARD lamp mode is switched to the LOW lamp mode in 1 minute.

The projector starts warming up when the POWER button is pressed. During the warm-up process, images may

appear dark and no commands are accepted.

By blinking red, the STATUS indicator indicates that the lamp should be replaced soon. Replace the lamp when

the STATUS indicator blinks red. (See page 44.)

Adjust the focus by turning the focus ring.

Select an input source.

Press the HDMI/COMPUTER button on the projector or the COMPUTER button on the remote control to select

COMPUTER.

The input source is switched between COMPUTER and HDMI every time you press the HDMI/COMPUTER

button on the projector.

Though it may take some time before an image is displayed on the screen depending on the type of the input

signal, such symptom is not a malfunction.

Images may not be projected in the correct position, depending on the type of the input signal. In such a case,

press the AUTO POSITION button. (See page 24.)

The projector automatically selects the appropriate signal format. (The selected signal format is displayed on the

INFORMATION menu.)

You cannot change the input source while the menu is being displayed.

When COMPUTER is chosen as the source, images supplied from the computer may flicker. Press the t or u

button on the remote control to reduce flicker, if it occurs. (Fine adjustment)

Adjust the position of the projector to keep an appropriate projection distance with which images are projected in

their specified sizes.

Adjust the position of the projector so that the projector and the screen are perpendicular to each other. (See page

10.)

When the projector cannot be positioned perpendicularly to the screen, adjust the projection angle. (See page

12.)

. Wait about 90 seconds.

During this period of 90 seconds in the standby mode, the intake fan and exhaust fan rotate to cool the lamp.

The lamp can’t be lit again for 1 minute after turning off the projector for safety purpose. It will take another 1

minute for the STATUS indicator to go out. If you want to turn on the projector again, wait until the indicator goes

out, and then press the POWER button.

The air outlet fans rotate faster as the temperature around the projector rises.

Do not unplug the power cord while the STATUS indicator is blinking. Unplugging the power cord immediately

after use may cause a lamp breakdown.

Though the fan makes loud sounds during cooling, such symptom is not a malfunction.

11

. Unplug the power cord from the outlet.

The POWER indicator will go out.

If the power cord should be unplugged accidentally while either the air inlet fan or the air outlet fans are

operating or the lamp is on, allow the projector to cool down for 10 minutes with the power off. To light the lamp

again, press the POWER button. If the lamp doesn’t light up immediately, repeat pressing the POWER button

two or three times. If it should still fail to light up, replace the lamp.

Cover the lens with the lens cap to protect it from dust.

AUTO POSITION button

When the image supplied from the computer is displaced, carry out the following procedure.

Display a bright image (such as a full-screen display of the Recycle Bin window).

When the screen saver has been enabled, disable it.

Press the AUTO POSITION button.

The projector automatically makes optimum positional settings for the input signal.

If the image is not projected in the correct position even after you press the AUTO POSITION button several

times, change the settings in the SIGNAL menu to put the image in the correct position. (See page 34.)

When you carry out this procedure with a dark image, the image may be displaced.

When connecting to a notebook computer:

When the projector is connected to a notebook computer, images may not be projected in some cases. In such cases,

set the computer so that it can output signals externally. The setting procedure varies depending on the type of the

computer. See the instruction manual of your computer.

Example of the setting procedure for external output

Press the [Fn] key and any of the keys [F1] to [F12] at the same time. (The key to be pressed depends on the type of

the computer you use.)

Setting of the resolution

If the resolution of the computer doesn’t match with that of the projector, projected images may be obscured. Ensure

that their resolutions are the same (see page 46). For the method to change the output resolution of the computer,

contact the manufacturer of the computer.

About color temperature

There are different kinds of white color. Color temperature is a way to show the differences in white. White of which

temperature is low appears reddish. When the color temperature rises, white appears bluish. For example, you can

change the color temperature using the following procedures.

To rise the color temperature: Increase the CONTRAST B (blue) and decrease the CONTRAST R (red).

To reduce the color temperature: Decrease the CONTRAST B (blue) and increase the CONTRAST R (red).

If you set all of CONTRAST R, G, and B to negative values, the original brightness of the image can’t be

obtained even when you maximize CONTRAST in the IMAGE menu.

Replacing the lamp

This projector is equipped with a lamp to project images. This lamp is a consumable. It may burn out or its brightness

may decrease during use. In such cases, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible. Be sure to replace the

lamp with a new lamp sold separately that is exclusive to this projector. Contact your dealer for purchase of the lamp.

Spare lamp VLT-HC3800LP

Warning:

Be careful not to drop the lamp fixing screws inside of the projector. Don’t put a metal piece or flammable object into

the projector. Using the projector with any foreign object present inside may result in electric shock or fire. When

you can’t remove the foreign object from the inside, contact your dealer for removal.

Be sure to install the lamp securely. When the lamp isn’t installed properly, it won’t illuminate. Improper installation

may also result in fire.

Don’t shake the removed lamp or don’t lift it above your face. Your eyes may be injured by flying or falling glass

fragments.

Don’t replace the lamp immediately after use because the lamp cover will be very hot. You may get burned. Turn off

the power using the POWER button. After the lamp goes out, wait about 90 seconds until the intake and exhaust

fans for cooling the lamp stop rotating. Then unplug the power cord, and wait at least one hour to allow the lamp to

cool down enough to the touch.

Do not touch the lamp directly. It may break and cause injury or burn.

Interval of lamp replacement

The recommended interval of lamp replacement is about 5000 hours*1*2 of consecutive use. Such interval differs

depending on the operating environment and may be shorter than 5000 hours*1*2. Decrease in luminescence and/or

color brightness indicates that the lamp needs to be replaced. When the lamp operation time exceeds 3750 hours*1,

the indicator will blink alternately between green and red (while the lamp is lit; when the lamp is not lit, the indicator

will be lit red only) and the lamp replacement message will appear on the screen for one minute everytime the lamp

is turned on. When the lamp has been used for about 4750 hours*1, the replacement message (LAMP EXCHANGE)

will appear on the screen for one minute every 25 hours*1 thereafter. When the lamp operation time exceeds 5000

hours*1*2, the projector automatically shuts off and can’t be used until the lamp is replaced and the lamp

operation time is reset.

*1: Duration when LAMP MODE of the INSTALLATION menu is set to LOW. When it is set to STANDARD, this duration will be

shorted.

*2: When LAMP MODE is set to STANDARD, this duration will be shorted to 3000 hours.

Caution:

Don’t remove the lamp for any purpose other than replacement. Unnecessary removal of the lamp may result in a

breakdown.

This projector uses a high-pressure mercury lamp as the light source. The high-pressure mercury lamp may

explode or fail to illuminate permanently because of an impact, scratch, or deterioration through use. The period

of time until explosion or permanent failure to illuminate varies considerably from lamp to lamp, depending on

operation conditions. Therefore, the lamp may explode soon after the start of use.

The possibility of explosion of the lamp increases if you use it beyond its replacement period. When the instruction

of lamp replacement appears, replace it with a new one immediately even if the lamp is still lighting normally.

When the high-pressure mercury lamp explodes, glass fragments will scatter inside or outside the lamp box and the

gas charged inside the lamp will diffuse inside or outside the projector. The gas inside the lamp contains mercury.

Be careful not to breathe it or avoid it from entering your eye or mouth. If you should breathe it or if it should enter

your eye or mouth, see a doctor immediately.

In the event that the high-pressure mercury lamp exploded, glass fragments may have been scattered inside the

projector. Ask your dealer to replace the lamp and to inspect the inside of the projector. When you clean or replace

the lamp by yourself, be sure to hold the handle of the lamp. You may get injured by glass fragments.

When removing the lamp from the ceiling-mounted projector, use the Lamp Replacement Attachment packed with

the projector or option lamp to prevent glass fragments from scattering.

Be sure to use the lamp exclusive to this projector, VLT-HC3800LP. Use of other lamps may cause a failure of the

projector.

because of the type of input signal. This isn’t a product malfunction. In this case,

readjust the keystone so that the amount of keystone correction is as small as possible.

•

•

•

Hue is not appropriate. Check that the cables connected to the external devices are not broken.•

Tint in projected

images is incorrect.

Check that COMPUTER INPUT in the SIGNAL menu is correctly set. (See page 29.)

Check that the cable connected to the external device isn’t broken.

•

•

Different color tint. When comparing images projected by two projectors, tints in the displayed images

may be different because of variation between their optical components. This is not a

malfunction.

When comparing the image projected by this projector with those displayed on the

television or PC monitor, tints in the displayed images may be different because of

difference in the range of color reproducibility. This is not a malfunction.

•

•

Color unevenness

appears in images.

Since the projector utilizes a high-definition DLP chip, color variations (at the center of

the screen and along the rims of the active area) that are caused by diffraction of light

may occur. This is not a malfunction.

•

Only the motion areas

in the images supplied

from the computer

aren’t displayed.

This is caused by the computer being used. Contact the manufacturer of your

computer.

•

Projected images are

obscured.

Match the output resolution of your computer with the resolution of the projector. For

the method to change the output resolution of the computer, contact the manufacturer

of your computer. (See page 46.)

Some images and texts appear obscured during the keystone adjustment. In such

cases, use the projector without applying the keystone adjustment. (See page 12.)

•

•

Image remains

freezing.

When image from VCR is projected, it may remain freezing during speed search. This

is not a malfunction.

•

Noise appears around

the image.

In some images such as DVD, noise may appear around the recorded image. In this

case, decrease the setting value of OVER SCAN of the SIGNAL menu. (See page 29.)

•

Projected images are

flickering.

After the Power button or On button on the remote has been pressed, or the Lamp

mode setting has changed, images may be flickering until the lamp lights stably. This is

an expected behavior.

When selecting the input signal, Auto Position, and Color Enhancer, the projected

image may be flickering temporarily. This is not a product malfunction.

Troubleshooting (continued)

Others

Problem Solution

No sound comes

from the speakers

connected to the AV

amplifier.

(No sound comes

from the home theater

system speakers.)

The projector is not equipped with the speakers.

The AV amplifier reads the information that projector is not equipped with the speakers

and then passes this information along to the DVD player. Because of this, either the

DVD player may be temporarily stopping audio output, or the AV amplifier may be

temporarily stopping audio output from the DVD player.

Change the setting on the AV amplifier or the DVD player.

•



The exhaust vents

emit warm air.

This air comes out after cooling the inside of the projector. You may feel hot, but this is

not a malfunction.

•

The menu can’t be

used.

The microcomputers inside the projector may be wrongly operating because of noise.

Press the POWER button to turn off the lamp and wait about 90 seconds. Then

unplug the power cord from the outlet, wait at least 10 minutes, and plug the power

cord back into the outlet. When the POWER button doesn't function, unplug the

power cord from the outlet, wait at least 10 minutes, and then plug the power cord

back into the outlet.

•



“TEMPERATURE!!” is

displayed.

This indication appears when the ambient temperature rises high. When the ambient

temperature stays high, the lamp goes out.

Eliminate any causes of the rise in the ambient temperature.

This indication appears when the air inlet or outlet grille is blocked. When they are kept

blocked, the lamp goes out.

Remove the objects blocking the air inlet or outlet grille.

•



•



The mark appears. This mark appears when ineffective operation is carried out. This isn’t a product

malfunction.

•

The remote control

doesn’t function easily

or at all.

Check that the batteries are loaded in the remote control or the batteries are not weak.

(See page 6.)

Check that the remote control sensor isn’t exposed to direct sunlight or fluorescent

light. (See page 9.)

Use the remote control within its operation range. (See page 9.)

Use the remote control at least 10 cm away from the projector.

•

•

•

•

The buttons on the

control panel (except

for the POWER button)

don’t function.

PASSWORD FUNCTION in the FEATURE menu has been set to MENU ACCESS to

enable the password lock.

Cancel the password lock or contact the person in charge of management of the

projector. (See page 35.)

•



Abnormal sound is

heard.

Because the color wheel spins at a high speed, metallic sounds may be heard in rare

occasions. Such symptom is not a malfunction.

•

If the following problem occurs after the lamp is replaced, check the following first.

Problem Solution

The projector does not

turn on.

Fit the lamp cover securely. (See pages 36 and 37.)

Reset the lamp operating time. (See page 38.)

•

•

The STATUS indicator

blinks.

Reset the lamp operating time. (See page 38.)•
