Positioning your projector  
Choosing a location  
Your projector is designed to be installed in one of four possible installation  
locations:  
1.  
Front Table  
Select this location with the projector placed near  
the floor in front of the screen. This is the most  
common way to position the projector for quick  
setup and portability.  
2.  
Front Ceiling  
Select this location with the projector suspended  
upside-down from the ceiling in front of the  
screen.  
Purchase the InFocus Projector Ceiling  
Mounting Kit from your dealer to mount your  
projector on the ceiling.  
Set Front Ceiling in the SYSTEM SETUP:  
Basic > Projector Position menu after you turn  
the projector on.  
3.  
Rear Table  
Select this location with the projector placed near  
the floor behind the screen.  
Note that a special rear projection screen is  
required.  
Set Rear Table in the SYSTEM SETUP: Basic >  
Projector Position menu after you turn the  
projector on.  
4.  
Rear Ceiling  
Select this location with the projector suspended  
upside-down from the ceiling behind the screen.  
Note that a special rear projection screen and the  
InFocus Projector Ceiling Mounting Kit are  
required for this installation location.  
Set Rear Ceiling in the SYSTEM SETUP: Basic  
> Projector Position menu after you turn the  
projector on.  
Your room layout or personal preference will dictate which installation location you  
select. Take into consideration the size and position of your screen, the location of  
a suitable power outlet, as well as the location and distance between the projector  
and the rest of your equipment.

Obtaining a preferred projected image size  
The distance from the projector lens to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video  
format each factors in the projected image size.  
4:3 is the native aspect ratio of this projector. To be able to project a complete 16:9  
(widescreen) aspect ratio image, the projector can resize and scale a widescreen  
image to the projector's native aspect width. This will result in a proportionally  
smaller height equivalent to 75% of the projector's native aspect height.  
4:3 aspect image in a 4:3  
aspect display area  
16:9 aspect image scaled to a  
4:3 aspect display area  
Thus, a 16:9 aspect image will not utilize 25% of the height of a 4:3 aspect image  
displayed by this projector. This will be seen as darkened (unlit) bars along the top  
and bottom (vertical 12.5% height respectively) of the 4:3 projection display area  
whenever displaying a scaled 16:9 aspect image in the vertical center of the 4:3  
projection display area.  
When determining the position of your projector, you should consider its intended  
use and input signal aspect ratios. All inputs (other than composite Video being fed  
a 16:9 aspect signal) will display in a 4:3 aspect ratio (and will require an additional  
33% display height than that of the scaled 16:9 aspect image projection area).  
Do not select a permanent projector position based upon a 16:9 projection if you will ever  
need to select an input (other than composite Video being fed a 16:9 aspect signal).  
The projector should always be placed horizontally level (like flat on a table), and  
positioned directly perpendicular (90° right-angle square) to the horizontal center of  
the screen. This prevents image distortion caused by angled projections (or  
projecting onto angled surfaces).  
The modern digital projector does not project directly forward (like older style reel-  
to-reel film projectors did). Instead, digital projectors are designed to project at a  
slightly upward angle above the horizontal plane of the projector. This is so that  
they can be readily placed on a table and will project forward and upwards onto a  
screen positioned so that the bottom edge of the screen is above the level of the  
table (and everyone in the room can see the screen).  
If the projector is mounted on a ceiling, it must be mounted upside-down so that it  
projects at a slightly downward angle.  
You can see from the diagram on page 12, that this type of projection causes the  
bottom edge of the projected image to be vertically offset from the horizontal plane  
of the projector. When ceiling mounted, this refers to the top edge of the projected  
image.  
If the projector is positioned further away from the screen, the projected image size  
increases, and the vertical offset also increases proportionately.  
When determining the position of the screen and projector, you will need to account  
for both the projected image size and the vertical offset dimension, which are  
directly proportional to the projection distance.

InFocus has provided a table of 4:3-aspect-ratio screen sizes to assist you in  
determining the ideal location for your projector. There are two dimensions to  
consider, the perpendicular horizontal distance from the center of the screen  
(projection distance), and the vertical offset height of the projector from the  
horizontal edge of the screen (offset).  
How to determine the position of the projector  
for a given screen size  
1.  
2.  
Select your screen size.  
Refer to the table and find the closest match to your screen size in the left  
columns labelled "4:3 screen diagonal". Using this value, look across this row  
to the right to find the corresponding average distance from screen value in  
This is the projection distance.  
3.  
4.  
On that same row, look across to the right column and make note of the  
Vertical offset value. This will determine the final vertical offset placement of  
the projector in relation to the edge of the screen.  
The recommended position for the projector is aligned perpendicular to the  
horizontal center of the screen, at the distance from the screen determined in  
step 2 above, and offset by the value determined in step 3 above.  
For example, if you are using a 108 inch screen, the recommended projection  
distance is 1459 mm and with a vertical offset of 165 mm.  
If you place the projector in a different position (to that recommended), you will  
have to tilt it down or up to center the image on the screen. In these situations,  
some image distortion will occur. Use the Keystone function to correct the  
distortion. See "Correcting keystone" on page 30 for details.  
How to determine the recommended screen size  
for a given distance  
This method can be used for situations where you have purchased this projector  
and would like to know what screen size will fit in your room.  
The maximum screen size is limited by the physical space available in your room.  
1.  
Measure the distance between the projector and where you want to position  
the screen. This is the projection distance.  
2.  
Refer to the table and find the closest match to your measurement in the  
average distance from screen column labelled "Recommended projection  
3.  
4.  
Using this value, look across that row to the left to find the corresponding  
screen diagonal listed in that row. That is the projected image size of the  
projector at that projection distance.  
On that same row, look across to the right column and make note of the  
Vertical offset value. This will determine the final placement of the screen in  
relation to the horizontal plane of the projector.  
For example, if your measured projection distance was 1.5 m (1500 mm), the  
column is 1459 mm. Looking across this row shows that a 9' (108") screen is  
required. If you can only obtain metric sized screens, the screen size is 2743 mm  
diagonally.

There is 3% tolerance among these numbers due to optical component variations. InFocus  
recommends that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should physically test  
the projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before you permanently  
install it, so as to make allowance for this projector's optical characteristics. This will help you  
determine the exact mounting position so that it best suits your installation location.

Connecting Video source devices  
This section describes how to connect the projector to Video source devices using  
video cables. Video cable connections are recommended for Video presentations.  
You can connect your projector to various Video source devices that provide any  
one of the following output sockets:  
DVI  
Component Video  
S-Video  
Video (composite)  
You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the  
above connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video  
quality. The method you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of  
matching terminals on both the projector and the Video source device as described  
below:  
Best video quality  
The best available video connection method is DVI. If your source device is  
equipped with a DVI socket, based on the type of DVI connector you have, you can  
enjoy digital or high-end analog video quality.  
See "Connecting a DVI source device" on page 17 for how to connect the projector  
to a DVI source device and other details.  
If no DVI source is available, the next best video signal is Component Video (not to  
be confused with composite Video). Digital TV tuners and DVD players output  
Component Video natively, so if available on your devices, they should be your  
connection method of choice in preference to S-Video or (composite) Video.  
connect the projector to a component video device.  
Better video quality  
The S-Video method provides a better quality analog video than standard  
composite Video. If you have both composite Video and S-Video output terminals  
on your Video source device, you should elect to use the S-Video option.  
projector to an S-Video device.  
Least video quality  
Composite Video is an analog video and will result in a perfectly acceptable, but  
less than optimal result from your projector, being the least video quality of the  
available methods described here.  
the projector to a composite Video device.  
Connecting audio  
The projector has a built-in mono speaker which is designed to provide basic audio  
functionality accompanying data presentations for business purposes only. It is not  
designed for, nor intended for stereo audio reproduction use as might be expected  
in home theatre or home cinema applications. Any stereo audio input (if provided),  
is mixed into a common mono audio output through the projector speaker.

Connecting a DVI source device  
The projector provides a DVI input socket that allows you to connect it to a DVI  
source device like a DVD player, or a VGA output device like a notebook or desktop  
computer.  
There are three types of DVI connectors: DVI-A, DVI-D, and DVI-I. The DVI-I  
socket is an integrated connector which supports both formats: DVI-A, and DVI-D.  
DVI-A format is used to carry a DVI signal to an analog (VGA) display, or vice-  
versa. Although some signal quality is lost from the signal conversion, it still  
transmits higher picture quality than a standard VGA connection.  
DVI-D format is used to directly carry a digital signal to a digital display without  
signal conversion. The pure digital connection provides faster and higher image  
quality than an analog connection, due to the nature of the digital format.  
DVI-A and DVI-D formats are non-interchangeable. You cannot connect a DVI-A  
format connector to DVI-D equipment and visa-versa. Make sure you know which  
kind of format your equipment is fitted with before you purchase any cables. Or you  
can purchase a DVI-I cable which will be more useful in any type of DVI connection  
situation.  
Examine your source device to determine if it has an unused DVI output socket  
available:  
If so, you can continue with this procedure.  
If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the  
device.  
To connect the projector to a DVI source device or a computer:

projector.  
If you wish to make use the projector (mixed mono) speaker, take a suitable  
audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output sockets of  
the video device, and the other end to the AUDIO socket of the projector.  
Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen  
Display (OSD) menus. See "Audio Settings" on page 48 for details.

Connecting a Component Video source device  
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused  
Component Video output sockets available:  
If so, you can continue with this procedure.  
If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the  
device.  
To connect the projector to a Component Video source device:  
1.  
Take a Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor cable and connect the end  
with 3 RCA type connectors to the Component Video output sockets of the  
Video source device. Match the color of the plugs to the color of the sockets;  
green to green, blue to blue; and red to red.  
2.  
3.  
Connect the other end of the Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor cable  
(with a D-Sub type connector) to the D-SUB/COMP. IN socket on the  
projector.  
If you wish to make use the projector (mixed mono) speaker, take a suitable  
audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output sockets of  
the video device, and the other end to the AUDIO socket of the projector.  
Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen  
Display (OSD) menus. See "Audio Settings" on page 48 for details.

Connecting an S-Video source device  
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has an unused S-Video output  
socket available:  
If so, you can continue with this procedure.  
If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the  
device.  
To connect the projector to an S-Video source device:  
1.  
2.  
3.  
Take an S-Video cable and connect one end to the S-Video output socket of  
the Video source device.  
Connect the other end of the S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO socket on the  
projector.  
If you wish to make use the projector (mixed mono) speaker, take a suitable  
audio cable and connect one end of the cable to the audio output sockets of  
the video device, and the other end to the AUDIO socket of the projector.  
Once connected, the audio can be controlled by the projector On-Screen  
Display (OSD) menus. See "Audio Settings" on page 48 for details.  
The final connection path should be like that shown in the following diagram:  
A/V device  
S-Video cable  
Audio cable  
The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is  
connected. See "Connecting audio" on page 16 for details.  
If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct  
video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and  
operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.  
If you have already made a Component Video connection between the projector and this  
S-Video source device using Component Video connections, you need not connect to this  
device using an S-Video connection as this makes an unnecessary second connection of  
poorer picture quality. See "Connecting Video source devices" on page 16 for details.

Selecting the aspect ratio  
The 'aspect ratio' is the ratio of the image width to the image height. Most analog  
TV and computers are in 4:3 ratio, which is the default for this projector, and digital  
TV and DVDs are usually in 16:9 ratio.  
With the advent of digital signal processing, digital display devices like this projector  
can dynamically stretch and scale the image output to a different aspect than that of  
the image input source.  
To change the projected picture ratio (no matter what aspect the source is):  
1.  
Press Menu/Exit and then press  
highlighted.  
/
until the DISPLAY menu is  
2.  
3.  
Press  
Press  
to highlight Aspect Ratio.  
to select an aspect ratio to suit the format of the video signal and  
/
your display requirements.  
About the aspect ratio  
In the pictures below, the black portions are inactive areas and the white portions are active  
areas. OSD menus can be displayed on those unused black areas.  
1.  
4:3: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of  
the screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio. This is most suitable for 4:3  
images like computer monitors, standard definition TV and  
4:3 aspect DVD movies, as it displays them without aspect  
alteration.  
2.  
3.  
16:9: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of  
the screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio. This is most suitable for  
images which are already in a 16:9 aspect, like high definition  
TV, as it displays them without aspect alteration.  
Auto: Scales an image proportionally to fit the projector's  
native resolution in its horizontal width. This is suitable for the  
incoming image which is either in 4:3 nor 16:9 and you want  
to make most use of the screen without altering the image's  
aspect ratio.  
4.  
Real: The image is projected as its original resolution, and  
resized to fit within the display area. For input signals with  
lower resolutions, the projected image will display smaller  
than if resized to full screen. You could adjust the zoom  
setting or move the projector towards the screen to increase  
the image size if necessary. You may also need to refocus  
the projector after making these adjustments.

According to the detected signal type, there are some user-definable functions  
available when User 1 or User 2 is selected. You can make adjustments to these  
functions based on your needs.  
Adjusting Brightness  
Highlight Brightness in the PICTURE menu and  
adjust the values by pressing  
projector or remote control.  
/
on the  
+50  
+70  
+30  
The higher the value, the brighter the image. And  
lower the setting, darker the image. Adjust this  
control so the black areas of the image appear  
just as black and that detail in the dark areas is  
visible.  
Adjusting Contrast  
Highlight Contrast in the PICTURE menu and  
adjust the values by pressing  
projector or remote control.  
/
on the  
+50  
+70  
+30  
The higher the value, the greater the contrast.  
Use this to set the peak white level after you have  
previously adjusted the Brightness setting to suit  
your selected input and viewing environment.  
Adjusting Color  
Highlight Color in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by pressing  
the projector or remote control.  
/
on  
Lower setting produces less saturated colors; setting to the minimum value makes  
the image black and white. If the setting is too high, colors on the image will be  
overpowering, which makes the image unrealistic.  
Adjusting Tint  
Highlight Tint in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by pressing  
the projector or remote control.  
/
on  
The higher the value, the more reddish the picture becomes. The lower the value,  
the more greenish the picture becomes.  
Adjusting Sharpness  
Highlight Sharpness in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by pressing  
/
on the projector or remote control.  
The higher the value, the sharper the picture becomes. The lower the value, the  
softer the picture becomes.

Adjusting BrilliantColor™  
Highlight BrilliantColor™ in the PICTURE menu and select by pressing  
the projector or remote control.  
/
on  
This feature utilizes a new color-processing algorithm and system level  
enhancements to enable higher brightness while providing truer, more vibrant  
colors in picture. It enables a greater than 50% brightness increase in mid-tone  
images, which are common in video and natural scenes, so the projector  
reproduces images in realistic and true colors. If you prefer images with that quality,  
select On. If you don’t need it, select Off.  
On is the default and recommended selection for this projector.  
Selecting a color temperature  
Highlight Color Temperature in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by  
pressing  
/
on the projector or remote control.  
There are four color temperature* settings available.  
1.  
T1: With the highest color temperature, T1 makes the image appear the most  
bluish white than other settings.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
T2: Makes images appear bluish white.  
T3: Maintains normal colorings for white.  
T4: Makes images appear reddish white.  
*About color temperatures:  
There are many different shades that are considered to be "white" for various  
purposes. One of the common methods of representing white color is known as the  
“color temperature”. A white color with a low color temperature appears to be  
reddish white. A white color with a high color temperature appears to have more  
blue in it.  
3D Color Management  
In most installation situations, color management will not be necessary, such as in  
classroom, meeting room, or lounge room situations where lights remain on, or  
where building external windows allow daylight into the room.  
Only in permanent installations with controlled lighting levels such as boardrooms,  
lecture theaters, or home theaters, should color management be considered. Color  
management provides fine color control adjustment to allow for more accurate color  
reproduction, should you require it.  
Proper color management can only be achieved under controlled and reproducible  
viewing conditions. You will need to use a colorimeter (color light meter), and  
provide a set of suitable source images to measure color reproduction. These tools  
are not provided with the projector, however, your projector supplier should be able  
to provide you with suitable guidance, or even an experienced professional  
installer.  
The Color Management provides six sets (RGBCMY) of colors to be adjusted.  
When you select each color, you can independently adjust its range and saturation  
according to your preference.  
If you have purchased a test disc which contains various color test patterns and can  
be used to test the color presentation on monitors, TVs, projectors, etc. You can  
project any image from the disc on the screen and enter the 3D Color  
Management menu to make adjustments.

Please refer to the illustration to the right for  
how the colors relate to each other.  
For example, if you select Red and set its

the image immediately.  
For example, if you select Red and set its  
value at 0, only the saturation of pure red  
will be affected.  
Saturation is the amount of that color in a video picture. Lower settings produce less  
saturated colors; a setting of “0” removes that color from the image entirely. If the saturation  
is too high, that color will be overpowering and unrealistic.  
6.  
Press

Operation under "High Altitude Mode" may  
cause a higher decibel operating noise level  
because of increased fan speed necessary to  
improve overall system cooling and performance.  
CAUTION  
Do not use the High Altitude Mode  
if your altitude is between 0 m and  
1500 m and temperature is  
between 0°C and 35°C. The  
projector will be over cooled, if

Maintenance  
Care of the projector  
Your projector needs little maintenance. The only thing you need to do on a regular  
basis is to keep the lens clean.  
Never remove any parts of the projector except the lamp. Contact your dealer if  
other parts need replacing.  
Cleaning the lens  
Clean the lens whenever you notice dirt or dust on the surface.  
Use a canister of compressed air to remove dust.  
If there is dirt or smears, use lens-cleaning paper or moisten a soft cloth with  
lens cleaner and gently wipe the lens surface.  
CAUTION  
Never rub the lens with abrasive materials.  
Cleaning the projector case  
Before you clean the case, turn the projector off using the proper shutdown  
procedure as described in "Shutting down the projector" on page 42 and unplug the  
power cord.  
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the case with a soft, lint-free cloth.  
To remove stubborn dirt or stains, moisten a soft cloth with water and a neutral  
pH detergent. Then wipe the case.  
CAUTION  
Never use wax, alcohol, benzene, thinner or other chemical detergents. These can damage the  
case.  
Storing the projector  
If you need to store the projector for an extended time, please follow the  
instructions below:  
Make sure the temperature and humidity of the storage area are within the  
recommended range for the projector. Please refer to "Specifications" on page  
58 or consult your dealer about the range.  
Retract the adjuster feet.  
Remove the batteries from the remote control.  
Pack the projector in its original packing or equivalent.  
Transporting the projector  
It is recommended that you ship the projector with its original packing or equivalent.  
When you carry the projector yourself, please use the original box or provided soft  
carry case.

When the projector is in operation, the duration (in hours) of lamp usage is  
automatically calculated by the built-in timer. The method of calculating the  
equivalent lamp hour is as follows:  
Total (equivalent) lamp hour  
= 1 (hours used in Economic mode) + 4/3 (hours used in normal mode)  
See "Setting Lamp Mode as Economic" below for more information on Economic mode.  
The lamp hour in Economic mode is calculated as 3/4 of that in normal mode. That  
is, using the projector in Economic mode helps to extend the lamp hour by 1/3.  
To obtain the lamp hour information:  
1.  
Press Menu/Exit and then press  
/
until the SYSTEM SETUP: Advanced  
menu is highlighted.  
2.  
Press to highlight Lamp Settings and press Mode/Enter. The Lamp  
Settings page displays.  
4.  
5.  
You will see the Equivalent Lamp Hour information displaying on the menu.  
To leave the menu, press Menu/Exit.  
You can also get the lamp hour information on the INFORMATION menu.  
Extending lamp life  
The projection lamp is a consumable item that normally can last up to 3000-4000  
hours with proper usage. To keep the lamp life as long as possible, you can do the  
following settings via the OSD menu.  
Setting Lamp Mode as Economic  
Using Economic mode reduces system noise and power consumption by 20%. If  
the Economic mode is selected, the light output will be reduced and result in  
darker projected pictures.  
Setting the projector in Economic mode also extends the lamp operation life. To  
set Economic mode, go into the SYSTEM SETUP: Advanced > Lamp Settings >  
Lamp Mode menu and press  
/
.
Setting Auto Power Off  
This function allows the projector to turn off automatically if no input source is  
detected after a set period of time to prevent unnecessary waste of lamp life.  
To set Auto Power Off, go into the SYSTEM SETUP: Basic > Auto Power Off  
menu and press  
/
. The time period can be set from 5 to 30 minutes in 5-minute  
increments. If the preset time lengths are not suitable for your presentation, select  
Disable. The projector will not automatically shut down in a certain time period.
