Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance from
the lens of the projector to the screen and the video format determine the size
of the projected image. (The throw ratio of the IN3916 is 0.49:1.)
IN3916 image offset is 105% +/-2%. This means that if you have an image 40
inches (1 meter) tall from a table-mounted projector, the bottom of the image
will be 2.8 inches (.07 meter) above the centerline of the lens.

What is Aspect Ratio?
4:3 screen
16:10 screen
Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. Depending on your
source, you will want to choose the aspect ratio (using your projector remote or
keypad) which matches your source.
Older TV screens and laptops are 4:3; newer TV screens, HDTV and most DVDs
are 16:9; and widescreen computers are 16:10.
4:3
mode
Use an aspect ratio of 16:9 for widescreen movies and HDTV, and use Native for
4:3 content. Force Wide can also be enabled to automatically resize less common
aspect ratios to 16:10.

Composite video connection
Connecting a video device
Plug the composite video cable’s yellow connector into the video-out connector on
the video device. Plug the other yellow connector into the yellow Video connector
on the projector.
You can connect video devices such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital
cameras, video game consoles, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector.
You can connect the audio directly to the projector to get sound from the built-in
speaker, or you can bypass the projector’s audio system and connect the audio
directly from your source to a stereo or home theater system.
If your source uses RCA connectors, connect the red audio-out connector on the
audio source to the red audio-in connector on the projector and white audio-out
connector on the audio source to the white audio-in connector on the projector.
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 your source uses a 3.5mm stereo connector, connect it to the 3.5mm audio-in
connector on the projector.
VGA connection
If your video device has a 15-pin VGA output, plug one end of the included
computer cable into the VGA connector on your video source. This connector may
be labeled “To Monitor” on the video source. Plug the computer cable into the VGA
connector on the projector.
Before connecting your projector, you should decide which aspect ratio you want to
use. The projector’s Aspect Ratio setting is accessed through the Resize button on
information.
Component video connection
Video device connections
If your HD video device has component connectors, an optional Component to
VGA adapter can be used. Plug the component cable into the video device. Plug the
other end of the component cable into the adapter and plug the adapter into the
VGA connector.
No video cables are provided with the projector. You can order cables from InFocus
or provide your own.
HDMI 1.3 connection
HDMI is a standard, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI
provides an interface between sources, such as set-top boxes, DVD players, and
receivers and your projector. Plug an HDMI cable into the video-out connector on
the video device and into the HDMI connector on the projector.

the source to VGA 1 or VGA 2 (press the source button on the projector or its
remote if needed - you may need to press it several times).
LiteBoard™ Wand
The LiteBoard Wand works like a wireless mouse - but one that works in midair, not
on your desktop. Just hold the wand in your hand, and point it at the projected
image to point, click and drag. The wand works with all your software, just like a
regular mouse.
6 Turn on the wand by pressing its tip, left or right button - the wand's blue status
light will start to blink.
7 Point the wand at the screen to point, click, and drag - just like a normal mouse.
The Undo button is located at the bottom of the wand. You can define this
button in the LiteBoard Wand Menu.
Charging the Wand’s Battery
When the wand’s amber battery light starts to blink, its internal battery is low (if the
battery is fully discharged, you won’t be able to turn the wand on by pressing its tip,
left or right buttons).
To charge the battery, open the flap at the bottom of the wand to expose the wand’s
USB connector. Then connect a USB cable between the wand and the USB power
adapter, or a computer (if connecting to a computer, make sure the computer is
powered on). The battery light will stay on while the battery is charging, then it will
turn off when the battery is fully charged.
NOTE: See LiteBoard Wand Menu below for settings that let you fine-tune wand
motion and clicking behavior. When you’re done, set the wand aside and make sure
it isn’t pointing at the screen; it will turn itself off automatically after 1 minute.
Wand Position and Avoiding Shadows
Your Location Distance from the Screen
You can use the LiteBoard Wand right up against the screen, or around the room.
You might find that your pointing accuracy will improve if you get closer to the
screen. Also, avoid standing too far off from either side of the screen.
When charging is finished, you can disconnect the USB cable (or keep the cable
connected and use the wand while it’s charging).
NOTE: 5-10 minutes of charging is enough for about an hour of wand use. A full
charge will take 6-8 hours and will allow 20-40 hours of non-stop wand use. A fully
charged, new wand will hold a charge in standby for up to 3 weeks.
Caution: The lithium battery is only rechargeable, and is not user serviceable or
user replaceable.
Avoid Shadows!
The wand won't work if its sensor is in a shadow or if it is pointing at a shadow:
Correct (no shadow)
Incorrect (shadow)
Caution: Always use the included USB cable and power adapter (or your
computer) to charge the wand.
How to Use the Wand
1 The IN3916 projector needs to be powered on and connected to your computer.
2 Connect the projector and your computer with a USB cable.
3 Connect the projector and your computer with a VGA cable.
4 Make sure the wand's battery is charged or charging.

How to Hold the Wand
Wand Features
You can hold the wand the way you would hold a normal pencil or pen, or you can
hold it like a remote control - use in whichever position is most comfortable.
NOTE: If the wand is up close to the screen, you can press its tip against the
projection surface to click and drag. Not recommended for use with fabric screens.

Buttons and Wand Tip
The wand's three top buttons are equivalent to the left, right, and scroll wheel
buttons on a mouse. The wand's tip is also a button, and is equivalent to the left
mouse button.
NOTE: By default, the Scroll Wheel button changes wand motion between Auto,
Normal and Draw. Auto switches between Draw, Normal and Stable mode
depending on the image size and distance. Normal makes clicking easier, but Draw
allows smoother motion. You can change the Scroll Wheel button to perform other
functions, including a standard middle button mouse click (see LiteBoard Wand
Menu below).
Battery Light
The amber battery light shows the status of the wand's built-in battery (see below
for battery information). The battery light will turn on while the wand is charging,
and it will blink if the battery is low (2-4 hours of wand use left).

Link Light
Lithium Battery Information
The blue link light shows the status of the wand's wireless connection to the
projector. The link light will blink frequently (more than once per second) when the
wand is attempting to link to the projector; then it will blink less frequently (about
once every 4 seconds) after the wand has linked to the projector.

serviceable.
USB Connector
LiteBoard Wand Menu
The wand's USB connector is behind a flap on the back of the wand. The USB
connector is only used for charging the wand's battery - using the included USB
power adapter, or a computer.
NOTE: You can use the wand while charging the battery, but after the battery is
charged (battery light turns off), you can unplug the USB cable and continue to use
the wand without a cable.
You can access the LiteBoard Wand menu from the projector's Setup menu. To
change the settings in this menu, highlight a setting, then press Select (on the
projector or its remote) one or more times - each press of Select will change to the
next value for the setting.
Enabled: controls whether the projector lets you use LiteBoard Wands. Set this to
Yes to allow wand use. Set this to No to prevent wand use.
Undo Button
The wand's Undo button will function the same as the computer's Escape, Delete, or
Backspace buttons, or the same as a Ctrl+Z (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Z (Mac OS)
command, depending on which function you assign to it in the LiteBoard Wand
menu.
Motion: controls wand motion. When set to Auto, the motion mode will switch
between Normal, Draw and Stable depending on the image size and distance.
When set to Normal, motion is set up to work best for normal computer use. When
set to Draw, motion is set up to work best for on-screen drawing. When set to
Stable, motion is filtered for maximum stability. When set to Press to Move, the
mouse pointer only moves when you hold down the wand’s tip or the left button on
the wand (use the right button to click).
Sensor
The wand's optical sensor opening is located above the wand's tip. Don't block the
sensor, and make sure it always has a clear view of the screen.
NOTE: The sensor won't work if you point it at a shadow or away from the screen.
Click Speed: controls the motion pause when you click and only applies if Motion
is set to Normal or Stable. Longer click speeds will make it easier to double-click,
but will increase the delay before motion resumes after you click.
Reset Button
The wand has a reset button, behind a small hole on its underside. Under normal
conditions, you should not need to reset the wand. See the Troubleshooting section
below for more information.
Scroll Button Mode: selects the function of the wand's Scroll Wheel button. You
can use the Scroll Wheel button to change wand motion, or perform keyboard or
mouse button shortcuts.
NOTE: The PwrPnt Annotate setting sets up the Scroll Wheel button to control
drawing (annotating) during Microsoft PowerPoint slide shows. The first press of
the Scroll Wheel button will turn on the drawing function, the next press will turn
off the drawing function, the next press will turn it on again, etc.
Internal Radio
The wand has a built-in wireless transmitter/receiver which it uses to communicate
with the projector.
Undo Button: selects the function of the wand's undo Button.
Link Channel: selects the radio channel used for wand communication. This
should be set to Auto unless you encounter interference (see Troubleshooting below
for more information).

rect this:
- Press to Move may be enabled; try holding down one of the wand’s buttons
while moving the wand.
- Press the tip, left or right button on the wand to turn it on.
On Windows XP: Open the Display control panel, click Settings, click the dis-
play that represents the projector, then un-check “Extend my Windows desk-
top...”.
- If the wand's blue Link light never blinks, then the wand's battery is fully dis-
charged; connect the wand to the USB power adapter or your computer.
- Make sure the wand is not pointing at a shadow and make sure its tip is not in
a shadow.
On Windows Vista: Right-click on the desktop, choose Personalize..., click
Display Settings, click the display that represents the projector, then un-check
“Extend the desktop...”
- If the room is brightly lit, reduce the room illumination.
On Windows 7.0: Right-click on the desktop, choose Screen Resolution, click
the display that represents the projector, and then choose the “Duplicate Dis-
play...” under Multiple Displays.
- If you're trying to use the computer's mouse at the same time as the wand,
point the wand away from the screen while using the mouse.

underside of the wand.
- Make sure a USB cable is connected between the wand and either the USB
power adapter, or a USB port on your computer.
•
•
If accurate clicking is difficult, try one of these solutions:
- Hold the wand steadier when clicking.
- If the wand is connected to the USB power adapter, make sure the adapter is
plugged in to a live electrical outlet. If the wand is connected to your computer,
make sure the computer is powered on.
- Use the wand right up against the screen so it's easier to avoid unexpected
movements.
- If the wand still won't charge, contact InFocus support at: www.infocus.com/
support.

About the microphone input
This projector is equipped with a 20-watt stereo speaker system, a dedicated
microphone input, and advanced audio processing for superb audio performance.
•
If you wish to use a microphone, connect a 3.5 mini jack cable Dynamic
Microphone to the projector.
•
You can use a wireless microphone as long as a wireless module is attached to
the projector’s microphone input jack and it works well with the associated
devices. To ensure a quality use of the wireless microphone, it is recommended
that your microphone conforms to the specifications listed in the table below.
External amplified speakers may also be connected using the audio-out connector
on the projector.
This system has assignable audio. Audio 1, Audio 2 and/or the microphone can be
assigned in any combination through the Audio Inputs feature described on
muted), or in conjunction with other audio simultaneously. The mixing of the
microphone audio and other audio inputs is handled through the Mic Volume menu.

•
•
Adjust the microphone volume level in the Setup > Mic Volume menu.
Press the Volume key on the keypad or remote to adjust the volume of the
projector speaker and audio-out signal.
•
•
The microphone will work regardless of whether the projector is turned on or
soft-powered off, if the Always-On function “Microphone” is set to On.
If the microphone is not working, check the volume setting and cable
connection.
You might get feedback noise from the microphone when you are too close to the
speaker of the projector. Move the microphone away from the speaker of the
projector. The greater volume you require, the greater distance you need to be away
from the speaker to prevent feedback noise.
NOTE: Only Dynamic Microphones should be used. Do not use active (phantom-
powered) microphones as projector damage may occur.
