Fire and Shock Precautions  
• Do not obstruct the projector’s ventilation holes. Also, do not place paper, cloth or other soft objects under the  
projector. Doing so could cause fire. Install the projector in a place where it will have sufficient space around it (ap-  
proximately 100 mm or more for the ventilation intake, 200 mm or more for the exhaust vent).  
• Do not try to touch the exhaust vent as it can become heated while the projector is turned on and immediately after  
the projector is turned off. Parts of the projector may become temporarily heated if the projector is turned off with  
the POWER button.  
Be careful for handling the projector.  
• Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector. Do not attempt to retrieve  
any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver into your  
projector. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immediately and have the object removed by a  
qualified service personnel.  
• Do not place any objects on top of the projector.  
• Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or fire.

This projector is compatible with the NEC MultiPresenter application, so multi-screen projection is possible via the  
network (wired LAN/wireless LAN).  
Energy-saving  
0.15 W (100-130 V AC)/0.36 W (200-240 V AC) in standby condition with energy saving technology  
Selecting [NORMAL] for [STANDBY MODE] from the menu can put the projector in power-saving mode.  
NORMAL: 0.15 W (100-130 V AC)/0.36 W (200-240 V AC)  
NETWORK STANDBY: 2.1 W (100-130 V AC)/2.3 W (200-240 V AC)  
“ECO MODE” for low power consumption and “CARBON METER” display  
The projector is equipped with a “LIGHT MODE” for reducing power consumption during use. Furthermore, the  
power-saving effect when the [ECO MODE] is set is converted into the amount of reductions of CO2 emissions  
and this is indicated on the confirmation message displayed when the power is turned off and at [INFO.] on the  
on-screen menu (CARBON METER).

3. Convenient Features  
Checking Energy-Saving Effect [CARBON METER]  
This feature will show energy-saving effect in terms of CO2 emission reduction (kg) when the projector’s [ECO MODE]  
is set to [ECO1] or [ECO2]. This feature is called as [CARBON METER].  
There are two messages: [TOTAL CARBON SAVINGS] and [CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION]. The [TOTAL CARBON  
SAVINGS] message shows the total amount of CO2 emission reduction from the time of shipment up to now.You can  
check the information on [USAGE TIME] from [INFO.] of the menu. (page 65)  
The [CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION] message shows the amount of CO2 emission reduction between the time of  
changing to ECO MODE immediately after the time of power-on and the time of power-off. The [CARBON SAVINGS-  
SESSION] message will be displayed in the [POWER OFF/ ARE YOU SURE?] message at the time of power-off.  
TIP:  
• The formula as shown below is used to calculate the amount of CO2 emission reduction.  
Amount of CO2 emission reduction = (Power consumption in [OFF] for [ECO MODE] − Power consumption in [ECO1]/[ECO2] for  
[ECO MODE]) × CO2 conversion factor.* When the image is turned off with the AV-MUTE button, the amount of CO2 emmission  
reduction will also increase.  
* Calculation for amount of CO2 emission reduction is based on an OECD publication “CO2 Emissions from Fuel Combustion,  
2008 Edition”.  
• The [TOTAL CARBON SAVINGS] is calculated based on savings recorded in 15 minutes intervals.  
• This formula will not apply to the power consumption which is not affected by whether [ECO MODE] is turned on or off.

45.3"/115 cm (when the lens is at the center position).  
Adjustment range in the horizontal direction: the projected image can be moved to the left 0.25 × 130.8"/332.1 cm ≈  
32.7"/83 cm, to the right approximately 32.7"/83 cm.  
[P502WL-2]  
According to the “Table of screen sizes and dimensions” (page 70), H = 127.3"/323.1 cm, V = 79.5"/201.9 cm.  
Adjustment range in the vertical direction: the projected image can be moved upwards 0.59 × 79.5"/201.9 cm ≈  
46.9"/119 cm (when the lens is at the center position).  
Adjustment range in the horizontal direction: the projected image can be moved to the left 0.28 × 127.3"/323.1 cm ≈  
35.4"/90 cm, to the right approximately 35.4"/90 cm.  
*
Figures differ by several % because the calculation is approximate.  
WARNING  
* Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done by a qualified technician. Contact your NEC dealer for more  
information.  
* Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.  
• Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector falls to the ground, you can be injured and the  
projector severely damaged.  
• Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The projector must be used at temperatures between  
41°F (5°C) and 104°F (40°C) (Eco mode selected automatically at 95°F to 104°F/35°C to 40°C).  
• Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will harm the screen image.  
• Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on  
the side or the front of the projector.  
Reflecting the Image  
Using a mirror to reflect your projector’s image enables you to enjoy a much larger image when a smaller space is  
required. Contact your NEC dealer if you need a mirror system. If you’re using a mirror system and your image is  
inverted, use the MENU and ▲▼◀▶ buttons on your projector cabinet or your remote control to correct the orienta-  
tion. (page 54)

5. Installation and Connections  
NOTE: The projector is not compatible with video decoded outputs of the NEC ISS-6020 switcher.  
NOTE: An image may not be displayed correctly when a Video source is played back via a commercially available scan converter.  
This is because the projector will process a video signal as a computer signal at the default setting. In that case, do the following.  
* When an image is displayed with the lower and upper black portion of the screen or a dark image is not displayed correctly:  
Project an image to fill the screen and then press the AUTO ADJ. button on the remote control or the projector cabinet.  
Enabling the computer’s external display  
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.  
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display.  
Usually, the combination of the “Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on or off. For  
example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through external display selections.  
Cautions when using a DVI signal  
• When the computer has a DVI output terminal, use a commercially available converter cable to connect the computer  
to the projector’s HDMI 1 IN or HDMI 2 IN terminal (only digital video signals can be input).  
HDMI 1 IN  
HDMI 2 IN  
AUDIO IN  
NOTE: When Viewing a DVI Digital Signal  
• Turn off the power of the computer and projector before connecting.  
• When a video deck is connected via a scan converter, etc., the display may not be correct during fast-forwarding and rewinding.  
• Use a DVI-to-HDMI cable compliant with DDWG (Digital Display Working Group) DVI (Digital Visual Interface) revision 1.0 stan-  
dard.  
The cable should be within 197"/5 m long.  
• Turn off the projector and the PC before connecting the DVI-to-HDMI cable.  
• To project a DVI digital signal: Connect the cables, turn the projector on, then select the HDMI input. Finally, turn on your PC.  
Failure to do so may not activate the digital output of the graphics card resulting in no picture being displayed. Should this happen,  
restart your PC.  
• Do not disconnect the DVI-to-HDMI cable while the projector is running. If the signal cable has been disconnected and then  
reconnected, an image may not be correctly displayed. Should this happen, restart your PC.  
• The COMPUTER video input terminals support Windows Plug and Play.  
• A Mac signal adapter (commercially available) may be required to connect a Mac computer.

9. Appendix  
Common Problems & Solutions  
(“POWER/STATUS/LIGHT Indicator” on page 115.)  
Problem  
Check These Items  
Does not turn on  
or shut down  
• Check that the power cord is plugged in and that the power button on the projector cabinet or the remote  
control is on� (pages 11, 12)  
• Check to see if the projector has overheated. If there is insufficient ventilation around the projector or if the  
room where you are presenting is particularly warm, move the projector to a cooler location�  
• The light module may fail to light. Wait a full minute and then turn on the power again.  
• Set [FAN MODE] to [HIGH] when using the projector at altitudes approximately 5500 feet/1700 meters  
or higher� Using the projector at altitudes approximately 5500 feet/1700 meters or higher without setting  
to [HIGH] can cause the projector to overheat and the projector could shut down� If this happens, wait a  
couple minutes and turn on the projector� (page 58)  
If you turn on the projector immediately after the light module is turned off, the fans run without displaying  
an image for some time and then the projector will display the image� Wait for a moment�  
• In case it’s hard to think the trouble is not caused on the above mentioned conditions, unplug the power  
cord from the outlet� Then wait 5 minutes before plugging it in again� (page 24)  
Will turn off  
No picture  
• Ensure that the [OFF TIMER] or [AUTO POWER OFF] is off. (page 52, 61)  
• Check if the appropriate input is selected. (page 14) If there is still no picture, press the SOURCE button  
or one of the source buttons again�  
• Ensure your cables are connected properly.  
• Use menus to adjust the brightness and contrast. (page 45)  
• Check that the AV MUTE (image off) buttons are not pressed.  
• Reset the settings or adjustments to factory preset levels using the [RESET] in the Menu. (page 66)  
• Enter your registered keyword if the Security function is enabled. (page 30)  
• If the HDMI 1 IN or the HDMI 2 IN signal cannot be displayed, try the following.  
- Reinstall your driver for the graphics card built in your computer, or use the updated driver�  
For reinstalling or updating your driver, refer to the user guide accompanied with your computer or  
graphics card, or contact the support center for your computer manufacturer�  
Install the updated driver or OS on your own responsibility�  
We are not liable for any trouble and failure caused by this installation�  
• Signals may not be supported depending on the HDBaseT transmission device. IR and RS232C cannot be  
used in certain cases as well�  
• Be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning  
on the power to the notebook PC�  
In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector  
before being powered up�  
* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer’s screen-  
saver or power management software�  
• See also the next page�  
Picture suddenly  
becomes dark  
• Check if the projector is in the Forced ECO mode because of too high ambient temperature. If this is the  
case, lower the internal temperature of the projector by selecting [HIGH] for [FAN MODE]� (page 58)  
Color tone or hue is  
unusual  
• Check if an appropriate color is selected in [WALL COLOR]. If so, select an appropriate option. (page  
51)  
• Adjust [HUE] in [PICTURE]. (page 45)  
Image isn’t square to  
the screen  
• Reposition the projector to improve its angle to the screen. (page 16)  
• Use the Keystone correction function to correct the trapezoid distortion. (page 21)  
Picture is blurred  
• Adjust the focus. (page 19)  
• Reposition the projector to improve its angle to the screen. (page 16)  
• Ensure that the distance between the projector and screen is within the adjustment range of the lens. (→  
page 67)  
• Has the lens been shifted by an amount exceeding the guaranteed range? (page 71)  
• Condensation may form on the lens if the projector is cold, brought into a warm place and is then turned  
on� Should this happen, let the projector stand until there is no condensation on the lens�  
Image is scrolling  
vertically, horizontally  
or both  
• Check the computer’s resolution and frequency. Make sure that the resolution you are trying to display is  
supported by the projector� (page 126)  
• Adjust the computer image manually with the [HORIZONTAL]/[VERTICAL] in the [IMAGE OPTIONS]. (→  
page 47)

9. Appendix  
Problem  
Check These Items  
Remote control does  
not work  
• Install new batteries.(page 9)  
• Make sure there are no obstacles between you and the projector.  
• Stand within 22 feet (7 m) of the projector. (page 9)  
• The remote control sensor on the back of the projector cannot be used when the cable cover is mounted  
on the projector�  
Indicator is lit or  
blinking  
• See the POWER/STATUS/LIGHT Indicator. (page 115)  
Cross color in RGB  
mode  
• Press the AUTO ADJ. button on the projector cabinet or the remote control. (page 23)  
• Adjust the computer image manually with [CLOCK]/[PHASE] in [IMAGE OPTIONS] in the menu. (page  
46)  
For more information contact your dealer.  
If there is no picture, or the picture is not displayed correctly.  
• Power on process for the projector and the PC.  
Be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning on the  
power to the notebook PC.  
In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before  
being powered up.  
NOTE: You can check the horizontal frequency of the current signal in the projector’s menu under Information. If it reads “0kHz”,  
this means there is no signal being output from the computer. (page 65 or go to next step)  
• Enabling the computer’s external display.  
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.  
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display. Usually,  
the combination of the “Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on or off.  
For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through external  
display selections.  
• Non-standard signal output from the computer  
If the output signal from a notebook PC is not an industry standard, the projected image may not be displayed  
correctly. Should this happen, deactivate the notebook PC’s LCD screen when the projector display is in use. Each  
notebook PC has a different way of deactivate/reactivate the local LCD screens as described in the previous step.  
Refer to your computer’s documentation for detailed information.  
• Image displayed is incorrect when using a Mac  
When using a Mac with the projector, set the DIPswitch of the Mac adapter (not supplied with the projector) accord-  
ing to your resolution. After setting, restart your Mac for the changes to take affect.  
For setting display modes other than those supported by your Mac and the projector, changing the DIP switch on  
a Mac adapter may bounce an image slightly or may display nothing. Should this happen, set the DIP switch to  
the 13" fixed mode and then restart your Mac. After that, restore the DIP switches to a displayable mode and then  
restart the Mac again.  
NOTE: A Video Adapter cable manufactured by Apple Inc. is needed for a MacBook which does not have a mini D-Sub 15-pin terminal.  
• Mirroring on a MacBook  
* When using the projector with a MacBook, output may not be set to 1024 × 768 unless “mirroring” is off on your  
MacBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Mac computer for mirroring.  
• Folders or icons are hidden on the Mac screen  
Folders or icons may not be seen on the screen. Should this happen, select [View] [Arrange] from the Apple  
menu and arrange icons.

What is HDCP/HDCP technology?  
HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a system  
for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI).  
If you are unable to view material via the HDMI input, this does not necessarily mean the projector is not functioning properly.With  
the implementation of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is protected with HDCP and might not be displayed  
due to the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital Content Protection, LLC).
