2 ft (.6m)
Use only the power cord provided. A surge-protected power strip is
recommended.
•
•
Refer to this manual for proper startup and shutdown procedures.
Do not place objects in the areas along the left, back and front sides of the projector
For ceiling mount applications, this area should be 5 feet (1.5m).
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
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

Positioning the projector
To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of
your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between
the projector and the rest of your equipment. Here are some general guide-
lines:
•
Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The
projector (with the standard lens) must be at least 3 feet (0.9m) from the
projection screen.
•
Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and
within 6 feet (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase exten-
sion cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector
within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object.
•
If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, refer to the installation
turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” on page 35. We recom-
mends using an authorized ceiling mount. The Ceiling Mount Kit is
tor or visit our website for more information.
•
•
Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance
from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the
video format determine the size of the projected image. For information
about image sizes at different distances, see “Projected image size” on
page 43.

For the standard lens that comes with the projector, the image exits at a
given angle. However, the lens shift feature makes the image offset
variable. The image offset is 100% at a 10:0 ratio when the projector is in
4:3 mode (default mode). This means that if you have an image 10’
high, all 10’ will appear above the center of the lens.

The image offset is 50% when the lens shift is at a 1:1 ratio. This means
that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 5’
below the center of the lens.
For information about the optional lenses image offsets, see “Projected
image size” on page 43.

Shutting down the projector
Troubleshooting your setup
The projector automatically blanks the screen after no active source is
detected for 50 minutes. This blank screen helps preserve the life of the pro-
jector. 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. See “LED Behav-
ior” on page 44. for information on LED behavior and what it means.
Screen Save
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-
sented. When the problem is solved, you can skip the additional solutions.
You can make the blank screen appear after five minutes by turning on
Screen Save in the Settings>System menu. See page 36.
Power Save
The projector also has a Power Save feature that automatically turns the
lamp off after no signals are detected for 20 minutes. After 10 additional
minutes with no signal, the projector powers down. If an active signal is
received before the projector powers down, the image is displayed. You
must press the Power button to display an image after 30 minutes have
passed. When Power Save is enabled, Screen Save is disabled. See page 36.
Turning off the projector
turn the projector off by pressing the power button again within 3 seconds.
You can cancel the shutdown by not pressing the power button a second
time. The lamp turns off and the LED blinks green for over 1 minute while
the fans continue to run to cool the lamp. When the lamp has cooled, the
LED lights green and the fans stop. Press the power switch on the back of
the projector and unplug the power cable to completely power off the pro-
jector.

Optimizing computer images
Presentation features
After your computer is connected properly and the computer’s image is on
the screen, you can optimize the image using the onscreen menus. For gen-
eral information on using the menus, see page 31.
Several features are provided to make giving presentation easier. The fol-
lowing is an overview, details are found in the menu section on page 31.
•
The remote’s Effect button allows you to assign various features to the
key. The default effect is Magnify. You can select from Blank, Mute,
Aspect Ratio, Source, Auto Image, Freeze, Magnify, About, and PiP
Source. See page 37 for details.
•
•
Adjust the Keystone, Contrast, or Brightness in the Picture menu.
Change the Aspect Ratio. Aspect Ratio is the ratio of the image width to
image height. TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV
and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9. Choose the option that best fits your
input source. See page 32 for details.
•
The Freeze effect allows you to freeze the displayed image. This is use-
ful if you want to make changes on your computer without your audi-
ence seeing them.
•
•
Adjust the Color Temperature in the Advanced menu.
•
•
•
The Blank button on the remote allows you to display a blank screen
instead of the active source. See page 36.
Adjust the Phase, Tracking, or Horizontal or Vertical position in the
Advanced menu.
The PiP Source effect lets you change the video source in a smaller win-
dow on top of the computer image. See page 37.
•
Once you have optimized the image for a particular source, you can
save the settings using Presets. This allows you to quickly recall these
settings later. See page 33.
The Startup Logo menu option lets you change the default startup
screen to a black, white, blue, or a custom logo screen via Logo Cap-
ture. See page 36.
•
•
Two menu options, Power Save and Screen Save, are provided to auto-
matically shut down the projector after several minutes of inactivity or
display a blank screen. This helps preserve lamp life. See page 35 and
page 36.
A Low Power menu option is also available to help lower the projec-
tor’s fan sound volume. See page 35.

Limited Warranty
no further obligation under the foregoing Limited Warranty if the Product has been
damaged due to abuse, improper ventilation, fire, water, disaster, mispackaging,
shipping, lightning or other acts of nature, misuse, neglect, smoke exposure (cigarette
or otherwise), accident, unusual physical or electrical stress and/or power surges,
unauthorized modifications (including use of an unauthorized mount), tampering,
alterations, service other than by InFocus or its authorized agents, or failure caused
other than from ordinary use or failure to properly use the Product in the application
for which said Product was intended. In addition, failure of the end-user to follow
maintenance procedures as outlined in the product’s user guide where a schedule is
specified for regular cleaning of certain parts (based on usage and environment), will
not be covered under this Warranty. Finally, InFocus shall have no further obligation
if the Product was subjected to operating conditions outside of the range specified in
the user’s guide or in this Warranty. Normal operating conditions are defined as use
not in excess of 16 hours continuously per day with a minimum 8 hour period of con-
tinuous rest in the powered off state. If a claimed defect cannot be identified or repro-
duced in service, you will be held responsible for the costs incurred. This Limited
Warranty excludes Product cleaning, removal or installation of the Product, 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. InFocus will not be liable for any rental costs incurred in the
event of a failure. The Warranty does not apply to cartons, carrying cases, shipping
cases, external cabinets, accessories used in connection with the product, or cosmetic
parts, knobs, or batteries. The Warranty period for LCD engines is either 2 years from
the date of purchase of the projector or 2500 hours of projector usage, whichever
comes first. If the LCD engine requires replacement and the projector has exceeded
2500 hours, but is otherwise eligible for Warranty, this Warranty will cover the cost of
labor, but not the cost of parts that require replacement.
Subject to the Limitations, Exclusions and Disclaimers hereof, InFocus Corporation
(“InFocus”) warrants that the Projector, Lamps and Accessories (hereinafter collec-
tively or individually referred to as “Product” as appropriate) purchased from InFo-
cus, 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. This warranty statement applies only to
the specific InFocus product purchased. InFocus products are compatible with many
systems, however the specific functional implementation by the customers of the
product may vary. The suitability of a product for a specific purpose or application
must be determined by the customer and is not warranted by InFocus Corporation.
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.
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 neces-
sary 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. Lim-
ited Warranty periods are as follows:
•
Projector Product Limited Warranty Period (Excluding Lamps): Two
(2) years from date of proof of purchase.
•
Lamp Product Limited Warranty Periods: The original installed lamp
shall have a ninety (90) day Limited Warranty Period from date of Projector
proof of purchase, and replacement Lamps will have a ninety (90) day lim-
ited warranty from date of lamp proof of purchase, and replacement lamps
purchased at the time of Projector Product purchase will have a ninety (90)
day limited warranty from date of first use.
The Accessory Product Limited Warranty covers the accessory item only and
excludes normal wear. The Lamp Product Limited Warranty excludes expected lamp
degradation and InFocus will not be liable for normal decrease in lamp output over
time or as lamp is consumed under the Limited Warranty.
•
Accessory Product Limited Warranty Period: ninety (90) days from date
of purchase.
WARRANTY LIMITATION AND EXCLUSION
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 informa-
tion.
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

DISCLAIMER OF UNSTATED WARRANTIES
by InFocus. When returning Product to InFocus, a Return Material Authorization
Number (RMA #) is required and must be clearly displayed on the outside of the
shipping carton or a similar package affording an equal degree of protection. InFocus
or the service facility authorized by InFocus will return the repaired/replaced Prod-
uct freight prepaid to the purchaser.
THE WARRANTY PRINTED ABOVE IS THE ONLY WARRANTY APPLICABLE TO
THIS PRODUCT. ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUD-
ING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABIL-
ITY AND FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE DISCLAIMED. THERE ARE
NO WARRANTIES THAT EXTEND BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION ON THE FACE
HEREOF AND THE FOREGOING WARRANTY SHALL NOT BE EXTENDED,
ALTERED OR VARIED EXCEPT BY WRITTEN INSTRUMENT SIGNED BY INFO-
CUS. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG
AN IMPLIED WARRANTY MAY LAST, SO SUCH LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY
TO YOU.
Products returned for Warranty service must be accompanied by a written letter that:
(i) explains the problem; (ii) provides proof of date of purchase; (iii) provides the
dealer’s name; and (iv) provides the model and serial number of the Product. Upon
request of InFocus Corporation or an authorized repair center for InFocus, proof of
legal import must accompany the warranty repair Product, otherwise the Product
must be returned to the place of original purchase, to the manufacturer (Purchaser
must bear all tax, duty and freight), or the Purchaser must bear charges for the war-
ranty repair.
Limited Warranty Period
The Limited Warranty periods hereof commence on the date of proof 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 JURISDIC-
TIONS MAY GRANT YOU CONSUMER RIGHTS WITH MINIMUM WARRANTY
DURATION THAT DIFFER FROM THE DURATIONS PROVIDED HEREIN, AND
INFOCUS WILL HONOR ALL SUCH CONSUMER RIGHTS UPON PROOF OF
PURCHASE IN THAT JURISDICTION.
No repair or replacement of Product or part thereof shall extend the Limited War-
ranty 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 replace-
ment of that part or the remaining period of the Product Limited Warranty whichever
is greater. InFocus’ or its authorized service center’s policies shall apply and the Con-
sumer will be charged accordingly for product returned to an InFocus Authorized
Service Center after the expiration of the warranty period.
To Be Eligible For Limited Warranty Coverage
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Any person exercising a claim under this Limited Warranty must establish to the sat-
isfaction 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.
IT IS UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT INFOCUS’ LIABILITY SHALL NOT
EXCEED THE RETURN OF THE AMOUNT OF THE PURCHASE PRICE PAID BY
PURCHASER Where applicable national law prohibits the exclusion or limitation of
liability, InFocus excludes or limits its liability to the maximum extent permitted by
national law.
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 more than one year
after the cause of action has accrued.

chase the Product is governed by the laws of the state of Oregon, USA.

uct and will pay all freight, duty, taxes, VAT, fees, incidental clearance and customs
charges to ship the unit to an InFocus Service Center or to a service facility authorized
