Important Information

Air Circulation
Openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To
ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it
from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or
covered.

IMPORTANT!
Clean the Filter Regularly!!
The projector uses a lamp which generates significant
heat. The cooling fans and air vents are provided to dissipate the heat by drawing air into the housing and the
filter is located in the intake vents to prevent dust from
getting inside of the projector.

CAUTION
Hot air is from the exhaust vent. When using or installing
the projector, the following precautions should be taken.

In order to care for the projector appropriately, regular
cleaning is required. Remove any dirt or dust that has
accumulated on the projector and on or in the filter.

 Do not put any flammable objects or spray cans near
the projector, hot air is exhausted from the air vents.
 Keep the exhaust vent at least 3 feet (1 m) away from
any objects.
 Do not touch peripheral parts in the exhaust vents,
especially screws and metallic parts. These areas will
become hot while the projector is used.
 Do not put anything on the cabinet. Objects put on
the cabinet will not only get damaged but may also
cause a fire hazard.
Cooling fans are provided to cool down the projector. The
fans’ running speed is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.

When the “Please clean filter” message is displayed, stop
using the projector immediately and clean or replace the
filter.
Blocking the air vents and leaving the projector uncleaned for a long time may not only damage the projector and may require costly repairs but may also cause
accidents or fire.
For maintenance of the filter, refer to “Option” on page 83
and “Replacing the Filters” on pages 97 – 98.
Damages to the projector caused by using an
un-cleaned filter or improper maintenance will void
the warranty on the projector.

Installing the Projector in Proper Position

Do not tilt the projector
more than 10 degrees
above and below.

Do not put the projector
on either side to project
an image.

Do not point the projector
up to project an image.

1. Introduction

Important:
Avoid using the projector with bright fluorescent lighting turned on. Certain high-frequency fluorescent lights
can disrupt remote control operation.
1. Be sure nothing obstructs the path between the remote control and the projector. If the path between remote and projector is obstructed, you can bounce the remote signal off certain reflective surfaces such as
projector screens.
2. The buttons and keys on the projector have the same functions as the corresponding buttons on the remote control. This user’s manual describes the functions based on the remote control.

Note:
* To turn off the projector, press the STAND-BY button twice.

13

1. Introduction

Battery Installation
The Remote Control unit included with the projector does not contain batteries, though batteries are supplied as part of the
complete package. To insert (or replace) the batteries, refer to the following guide.

1.

2.

3.

Remove the battery compartment cover
by squeezing the locking catch and sliding the cover in the direction of the
arrow.

Insert the supplied batteries taking note
of the polarity (+/-) as shown.

Replace the cover locator, and then
click locking catch into place as shown.

14

1. Introduction

Operating Range for Wireless Remote Control
Point the remote control toward the projector (to Infrared Remote Receivers) when pressing the buttons. Maximum operating range for the
remote control is about 16.4 feet (5 m) and 60 degrees in front and rear
of the projector.
Infrared remote receivers are provided both in front and back of the projector. You can conveniently use both of the receivers.

Remote Control Precautions
The following precautions ensure that the remote operates correctly and
safely.
x

Use two (2) AA or LR6 type alkaline batteries.

x

Always replace batteries in sets.

x

Do not use a new battery with a used one.

x

Avoid contact with water or liquid.

x

Do not expose the remote control to moisture or heat.

x

Do not drop the remote control.

x

If the battery has leaked on the remote control, carefully wipe the
case clean and install new batteries.

x

Risk of an explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.

x

Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

Remote Control Codes
This projector provides eight different remote control codes (Code 1–Code 8); the factory-set, initial code (Code 1) and the
other seven codes (Code 2 to Code 8). This switching function prevents remote control interference when operating several projectors or video equipment at the same time.
The same code should be set on both the projector and the remote control.
For example operating the projector in “Code 7”, both the projector and the remote control must be switched to “Code 7”.

To change the code for the projector;
Select a remote control code in the Menu.

To change the code for the remote control;
Check the Reset Switch to Use position in the compartment lid on back of the remote control.

With holding down the MENU button, press the IMAGE button. By pressing the IMAGE button, the code switches in a sequential order.

To reset the code for the remote control;
Slide the Reset Switch to "Reset position" in the compartment lid on back of the remote control.

o Replacing Consumable Parts
During the course of normal usage, consumable parts become worn out resulting in reduced performance. The following
guides detail how to replace the various consumable parts within the projector quickly and safely.

x Before replacing any of the parts, please take note of the following:
x Ensure that the projector is turned off and disconnected from the power supply.
x Ensure that the projector is in a clean, stable position before replacing parts.
x Allow at least one hour after shutdown for the projector to cool before attempting replacing any consumable parts.
x Do not interchange Lamp 1 and Lamp 2 after the projector has been used once.
Doing so will not allow the projector to display the correct lamp usage hours.

x A minimum space is required for replacement. See page 24 and 98 for more details.

Replacing the Filters
When the lamps are replaced, the filters should also be replaced, not cleaned.
Refer to the following guide to replace the filters.
CAUTION

Do not drop the projector on your hand or fingers while lifting the projector to replace the filters. Doing so
could injure your hand or fingers.

Replacing the Lamps
When a lamp reaches the end of it’s usable life, the following message is displayed. Replace the lamp.

The projection lamps should be replaced when they burn out. They should only be replaced with a certified replacement
part, contact your local dealer if unsure.

Note:
1. Lamps are positioned differently. Take care not to force the lamps when replacing.
2. Installation of both lamp modules (Lamp 1 and Lamp 2) is required to operate the projector in dual or single lamp mode. If only a single lamp module is installed, the projector's lamp will not turn on and will appear
as a lamp failure.
3. Lamps last approximately 2000-2100 hours (2500-2600 hours in Eco mode) and the End of lamp life
message is displayed during the lamps' final 100 hours of operational life. Please replace during 2000-2100
hour.
Important:
1. The lamp contains a certain amount of mercury and should be disposed of according to local ordinance
regulations.
2. Avoid touching the glass surface of the new lamp: doing so may shorten its operation life.
Lamp Handling Precautions
This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling
may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
x

Lamp life may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no guarantee of the same life for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period
of time than other similar lamps.

x

If the projector indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if LAMP 1 and/or LAMP 2 light up,
replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down. (Follow carefully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.) Continuous use of the lamp
with LAMP 1 and/or LAMP 2 lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.

x

A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as
its lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which the projector and lamp are being used.

CAUTION

If a lamps explodes, the following safety precautions should be taken:
Disconnect the projector’s AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an authorized service station
for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check carefully to ensure that there are
no broken shards or pieces of glass around the projector or coming out from the cooling air circulation
holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one should check the inside of the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with projector service.
Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to
do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.

t Operation Using HTTP Browser
Overview
The use of HTTP server functions will allow control of the projector from a web browser without the installation of special
software. Please be sure to use “Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.x” or a higher version for the web browser. (This device uses
“JavaScript” and “Cookies” and the browser should be set to accept these functions. The setting method will vary depending on the version of browser. Please refer to the help files and the other information provided in your software).
Access is gained to the HTTP server functions by specifying the following address in the entry column of the URL:
http://  /index.html
http://  /lanconf.html

Note:
The display or button responses can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending the settings of your network. Should this happen, consult your network administrator. The projector may not
respond if its buttons are repeatedly pressed in rapid intervals. Should this happen, wait a moment and repeat. If you still can’t get any response, turn off and back on the projector.

Preparation Before Use
Make network connections, set up the projector and confirm that it is complete before engaging in browser operations
(see Network setting on page 80 for more information).
Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and the setting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have actually been set will not
be displayed depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser may not be reflected in
operation. It is recommended that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable.

Handling of the Address for Operation by Using a Browser
Regarding the actual address that is entered for the address or entered to the URL column when operation of the projector
is via a browser, the host name can be used as it is when the host name corresponding to the IP address of the projector
has been registered to the domain name server by a network administrator, or the host name corresponding to the IP address of the projector has been set in the “HOSTS” file of the computer being used.
Example 1:
When the IP address of the projector is 192.168.73.1, access is gained to the HTTP server functions by specifying
http://192.168.73.1/index.html for the address or the entry column of the URL.
