Remote control effective range  
Infra-Red (IR) remote control sensors are located on the front and the back of the projector.  
The remote control must be held at an angle within 30 degrees of the projector’s IR remote control sensors to  
function correctly. The distance between the remote control and the sensors should not exceed 6 meters (~  
20 feet).  
Make sure that there are no obstacles between the  
remote control and the IR sensors on the projector  
that might obstruct the infra-red beam.  
Replacing the remote control battery  
1. Pull out the battery holder.  
2. Insert the new battery into the holder. Note:  
The positive polarity should face outward.  
3. Push the holder into the remote control  
until it clicks into place.  
λ
Avoid excessive heat and humidity. There  
may be battery damage if the battery is  
incorrectly replaced.  
λ
Replace only with the same or equivalent type  
battery, as recommended by the battery manufacturer.  
Dispose of the used battery according to the manufacturer’s instructions.  
Never throw a battery into a fire. There may be danger of an explosion.  
If the battery is dead, or if you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the battery to  
prevent damage to the remote control from the possibility of battery leakage.

Connection  
When connecting a signal source to the projector, be sure to:  
1. Turn all equipment off before making any connections;  
2. Use the correct signal cables for each source; and  
3. Ensure that the cables are firmly inserted.  
In the connections shown below, some cables may not be included with the projector (see "Shipping  
Contents" on page 6). They are commercially available from electronics stores.  
Cable connection  
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:  
λ
λ
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:  
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.  
Lesser 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 lesser video quality of the available methods described here.  
Connecting audio  
The projector has a built-in mono speaker that 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.

If you have a separate sound system, you will most likely want to connect the audio output of your video source  
device to that sound system, instead of to the mono audio projector.  
The audio connections illustrated in the following sections are provided for informational purposes only. You need  
not connect audio to the projector if there is an alternate sound system available, or if audio is not required.

Operation  
Start-up  
1. Plug the power cord into the projector and into a wall socket. Turn on the wall socket switch (where fitted).  
Check that the Power indicator on our projector adapter lights orange after power has been applied.  
2. Plug the DC plug into the projector’s 12VDC socket. Remove the lens cap. If it is left on, it could become  
deformed due to the heat produced by the projection lamp.  
3. Switch on the main power at the left side of the projector. Check that the Power inductor on the projector  
lights green.  
3. Press the Power button on the remote control or projector to start the unit. The Power indicator lights off  
and lights green after 3 seconds when the unit is on.  
4. The start-up procedure takes about 5 seconds after pressing Power, and the image will appear as normal  
(If necessary). Rotate the focus ring to adjust the image clearness.  
If the projector is still hot from previous activity, it will run the cooling fan for approximately 45  
seconds before energizing the lamp.  
5. Switch all of the connected equipment on.  
6. You can also press Source on the projector or remote control to select your desired input signal. For more  
information, please refer to "Switching input signal" on page 14.  
If the frequency/ resolution of the input signal exceed the projector’s operating range, you will see the  
message “Out Range” displayed on a blue screen.  
Switching input signal  
The projector can be connected to multiple devices at the same time;  
however, it can only display one at a time. To cycle through the available  
input sources, press the Enter button on the projector control panel, or the  
Source button on the remote control. The selected source name will display  
at the Top-Left of the screen for 10 seconds after each button press.  
The brightness level of the projected image will change accordingly  
when you switch between different input signals. Data (graphic) "PC"  
presentations using mostly static images are generally brighter than  
"Video" presentations using mostly moving images (movies).  
The input type affects the options available for the Application Mode. See "Selecting an application  
mode" on page 18 for details.

Shutdown  
1. Press Power to turn the projector off.  
2. The Power indicator light flashes green and the lamp shuts down. The fans continue to run for  
approximately 45 seconds to cool down the projector.  
λ
λ
To protect the lamp, the projector will not respond to any commands during the cooling process.  
To shorten the cooling time, you can also activate the Quick Cooling function.  
3. Switch off the main Power at the left side and disconnect the power cord at the adaptor from the wall  
socket.  
λ
Do not unplug the adaptor or power cord before the projector shutdown sequence is complete, or  
during the 45-second cooling down process.  
λ
If the projector is not properly shut down, you risk damaging the lamp. Do not move the projector while  
the lamp is hot.
