DVI C-SYNC 1 A sophisticated proprietary optical system, coupled with a hight performance zoom lens ensures hight contrast images, superior uniformity and edge-to-edge definition. A new 6-segment colour wheel dramatically reduces the so called “rainbow effect” and gives a better contrast, better colorimetry and a lower black level to the image. The new HD-2 DMD™ chip ensures, on top of the high definition resolution (1280 x 720 pixels), an increased contrast ratio of > 1800:1 thus delivering on the screen an even more realistic image. Fig. 1 Using the very latest in DLP™ technology, this projector has been designed specifically for high quality “Home Cinema” applications. Sophisticated digital processing and a wide choice of inputs enable the connection of a variety of sources such as DVD players, analogue and digital VCRs, analogue and digital satellite receivers and personal computers etc. The long throw zoom lens allows the position of the projector to be located behind the viewer, thus reproducing a cinema-like installation (Fig. 2). The DVI-D input allows a complete digital connectivity to an increasing amount of video sources equipped with digital outputs, thus guaranteeing a perfect reproduction, without any loss of information or interference in the signal. The renowned DCDi™ technology is adopted for deinterlacing: conversion from interlaced to progressive produces a smooth and natural image, without flickering, loss of vertical resolution and jaggedness along diagonal lines. The low-noise ventilation system – with variable speed fans – ensures appropriate cooling and maximizes projector reliability. To fully appreciate your new projector we recommend the use of a good quality screen and surround-sound system. Contact your nearest authorized SIM2 Multimedia dealer for further details. SIM2 carries out comprehensive functional testing in order to guarantee the maximum product quality. For this reason, when you start using the product lamp operating hours may already be at between 30 and 60. DVI C-SYNC Fig. 2 In addition to the regular tests, the Quality Control department performs additional statistical tests at the time of shipment. In this case the packing may show signs of having been opened, and the accumulated lamp operating hours may be slightly higher than the hours associated with the standard tests.

Do not pour or drop fluids in the vents. 100-240 Vac 50/60 Hz • Do not use the projector when the room temperature is above 35°C (95°F). Fig. 3 • The mains plug is the disconnect device. Take care, when installing, that the mains plug and socket outlet are easily accessible. Never pull on the cable to take it out of the socket. If the system is unlikely to be used for a number of days, disconnect the power cable and other apparatus connected to it. • To save energy, switch off the projector by using the power switch at the rear; when in stand-by (red light on) the projector continues to draw a minimal amount of power. • Only replace the safety fuse (on the power socket at the rear of projector) with a fuse identical in type and characteristics (T 3.15A H) (Fig. 4). • Do not obstruct the cooling air inlets on the top cover, or the air outlets underneath the projector. • Do not switch on the projector if it is standing on soft surfaces such as cushions, pillows, blankets, mattresses and carpets: the air cooling outlets underneath could become obstructed. • Do not switch-on the projector if it is standing on surfaces sensitive to heat, as this may result in damage caused by the hot air outlets underneath. Should this be unavoidable take extra precaution of protecting the surfaces with a layer of heat resistant material. • Intense Light Source! Do not stare directly into the projection lens as possible eye damage could result. Be especially careful that children do not stare directly into the beam. • Do not open the projector’s cover; no user serviceable parts are inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel. Opening the projector’s cover will invalidate warranty. 5 • Take care not to shake the projector whilst carrying it by the handle. • For installations using a ceiling or wall-mounted bracket, carefully follow the installation and safety instructions provided with the bracket’s literature. • Always position the projector away from direct heat sources. • Please remove batteries from the remote control if not in use for a long period of time. • Do not touch the surface of the projection lens. • The projector must be positioned on a stable, suitable platform or be installed using a bracket for fixed ceiling or wall installation. Do not rest the projector on the side panels or on the rear panel when in operation. • Take care to position cables safely, especially in dark places, in order to avoid a trip hazard. • A special EVC socket on the projector’s rear panel will allow connection to the optional Remote Input Interface (a special cable is required). This is not to be confused with a VESA “Plug & Display”. Never connect a computer to this socket, as the projector and the computer may be damaged. 3 PACKAGING AND CONTENTS 1 2 3 4 Fig. 5 The carton should contain the following: - the projector - the remote control - four 1.5V AAA batteries (for remote control) - three power cables (EU, UK, USA) - the user manual. 6 To unpack the projector safely and easily please follow steps 1 to 4, as per drawing (Fig. 5). It is recommended that the carton and packaging is retained for future use and in the unlikely event that your projector needs to be returned for repair. 4 INSTALLATION M O ZO ZO OM ZOOM FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS ZO OM O M CAUTION: In the case of ceiling or wall mounting using a suspension bracket, follow the instructions carefully and comply with the safety standards you will find in the box together with the bracket. If you use a bracket different to the one supplied by SIM2 Multimedia, you must make sure that the projector is at least 65 mm (2-9/16 inch) from the ceiling and that the bracket is not obstructing the air vents on the lid and on the bottom of the projector. focus you should be able to clearly see each single pixel when within close proximity to the screen (Fig. 7). ZO Position the projector on a stable, suitable platform or utilise the optional bracket for a fixed ceiling or wall installation. DVI C-SYNC Adjust the feet underneath to obtain a level position, lining up the base of the projected image to the base of the projection screen (Fig. 6). Fig. 7 The manual lens shift adjustment allows the projected image to be moved vertically, up or down, in relation to the centre of the screen; the maximum adjustment being equal to half the height of the image in either direction (Fig. 8). DVI C-SYNC Fig. 6 DVI C-SYNC Position the projector the desired distance from the screen: the size of the projected image is determined by the distance from the lens of the projector to the screen and the zoom setting. See “Appendix B”: Projection distances” for more information. Use the motorised lens zoom to adjust the image size and the motorised lens focus to achieve maximum clarity. With optimum Fig. 8 In the event you are unable to centre the image within the screen area, tilt the projector until the image is correctly positioned. Any keystone error can be removed by the Keystone adjustment in the Set up menu (Fig. 9). 7 KEYSTONE 20% DVI C-SYN C DVI C-SYNC Fig. 11 Fig. 9 The Orientation adjustment in the Set up menu will allow the projector to be used for desktop front, ceiling front, desktop rear and ceiling rear installations (Fig. 10). The output is activated (Voltage: 12 Vdc) when the projector is switched on and is de-activated (no Voltage output) when the projector is in stand-by mode. Some manufacturers offer screen-masking systems to help frame the projected image and improve picture contrast. These , at the rear of the systems can be connected to output projector (Fig. 12), or on the optional Remote Input Interface. DVI C-SYNC DVI C-SYN C Fig. 10 To activate an electric motorised screen a 12 Volt output is provided at the rear of the projector or with the optional Remote Input Interface. This can be connected to a screen interface unit, which can be supplied by screen manufacturers (Fig. 11). 8 Fig. 12 For rear projection the screen must be translucent. For front projection, we recommend the use of screens with low gain specifications (i.e. 1.3 to 2). The use of high gain screens should be avoided due to their limited viewing angle, which is undesirable for a large audience. Preferably, use a screen with black, non-reflecting borders, which will perfectly frame the projected image. Avoid light shining directly on the screen during projection as this will reduce contrast and black level detail on the projected image. For the true cinema experience best results are achieved with little or no ambient light. Furniture and other objects with reflecting surfaces, as well as light coloured walls should be avoided, as they are likely to interfere with the screen’s characteristics. 5 SWITCHING ON AND OFF THE PROJECTOR CAUTION: Connect the projector to a power supply with a nominal voltage within the following values: 100-240 Vac, 50/60 Hz.

High temperature The projector detects temperature internally; if it is too high it will switch itself off. - Check temperature of the room: it must be below 35°C (95°F) - Check projector air vents on top and underneath the projector: they must be free of obstruction. - If the problem persists, consult your Dealer. - Input a signal that is within specifications. 10 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE The projector does not require internal cleaning. There are no user serviceable parts inside the projector. Please refer all service requirements to qualified personnel. Cleaning the projector’s cover: Use a soft slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals, as this will damage the finish of the cover. Avoid direct cleaning of the rear panel’s screenprinting. Cleaning the lens: The lens may be cleaned with a very soft, non-abrasive small brush, in order to remove dust particles. Alternatively, use a soft dry cleaning cloth (of the type used for camera lens cleaning) to remove fingerprints and grease marks. 11 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE No power (Green and red LED are OFF) The lamp is not coming on - Check the power switch at the rear: it must be in position I. - Check if the power cable has been connected correctly to a working socket. - Check the power socket fuse, at the rear of the projector. - Replace the fuse on the mains socket with an identical type (T 3.15A H) (Fig. 2). - Should the problem persist, seek authorised technical assistance. - Allow a few minutes pause between switching off and turning on again (from stand-by). This will allow the lamp to cool down sufficiently. - If the lamp doesn’t come on – even though the projector has had sufficient time to cool down – seek technical assistance from your nearest Dealer. 23 No image Image too dark, too pale or unnaturally coloured - Check that the selected input is actually connected to a active video or graphic signal. - Check that the above source actually works. - Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with the technical specifications of the projector. - Check the integrity of cables used to connect various sources. - If you are using the Remote Input Interface, do not to confuse the menu for selection of projector’s inputs (Source Selection), with the menu for selection of remote inputs (Source Selection / RI2). - Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with technical specifications of your projector. - Go to Picture menu, select and regulate any of the following, accordingly: Contrast, Brightness, Color, and Tint. - If necessary, reset the Color Temperature and Gamma Correction (found on the Image Adjustments / Advanced Settings menu). Image is disturbed, unstable or noisy - Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with the technical specifications of the projector. - Check the integrity of cables connecting projector to various sources. - If the signal source is a terrestrial broadcast (via a VCR) check that the receiving channel has been correctly tuned in and that the aerial system is in good working order. - Should the problem be present with a signal coming from a video-recorder, ensure that the videotape is an Original “first generation” copy and in good condition. - Adjust the VCR’s tracking control for optimum picture performance. Ensure the VCR mode is active in the Picture menu. Graphic image with poor quality vertical detail - Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with technical specifications of your projector. - Press Auto (on your remote or keypad) to execute automatic adjustments. - Adjust Frequency and Phase parameters, found in the Image Adjustments menu, to optimise vertical detail of the projected image. Video Image showing colour misalignment on vertical details - Verify compatibility of video/graphic signals with technical specifications of your projector. - Adjust Y/C Delay settings in the Image Adjustments / Advanced Settings to reduce colour misalignment. For best results use an external colour bar test pattern source. Incomplete image along borders (vertical and horizontal) - Compare compatibility of video/graphic signals and technical specifications of your projector. - Press Auto (on your remote or keypad) to execute automatic adjustments. - Adjust the horizontal and vertical position of projected image by selecting Position on the Image Adjustments menu. - Adjust the width and height of image, selecting Aspect in the Image Adjustments menu. 24 Remote control does not work - Check the batteries and for correct polarity. - Ensure that the area between the infrared sensor (front of projector) and the remote control is free of obstruction. - Ensure that infrared sensors (front and rear of projector) are not exposed to intense light levels. 12 OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES You can purchase the following optional accessories at your Dealer: - Remote Input Interface with 10 m Cable. - Wall/Ceiling Bracket Kit. Use only original, or SIM2 Multimedia approved, accessories. CAUTION: for ceiling/wall installation, by means of suspension bracket, carefully follow the instructions and safety instructions recommended by the Manufacturer in the bracket’s literature.
