Is the audio source connected correctly?

Is the volume adjusted to the minimum setting?

Is A/V Mute active?

Is the audio cable's specification "No resistance"?

Remedy

Check that the cable is connected to the Audio port.

Adjust the volume so that sound can be heard.

Press the [A/V Mute] button on the remote control to cancel A/V Mute.

s p.17

When using a commercially available audio cable, make sure it is labelled "No resistance".

f

The remote control does not work

Check

Is the remote control light-emitting area pointing towards the remote receiver on the projector when it is operated?

Is the remote control too far from the projector?

Is direct sunlight or strong light from fluorescent lamps shining onto the remote receiver?

Are the batteries dead or have the batteries been inserted correctly?

Was a remote control button pressed for more than 30 seconds?

Remedy

Point the remote control towards the remote receiver.

The operating angle for the remote control is about 30

°

horizontally, and about 15

°

vertically.

The operating range for the remote control is about 6 m.

Set the projector up in a location where strong light does not shine onto the remote receiver.

Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly or replace the batteries with new ones if necessary.

s p.57

If any of the buttons on the remote control are pressed down for more than 30 seconds, the remote control stops sending signals (remote control's sleep mode). When the button is released, normal remote control operation resumes. This can prevent the batteries from running down accidentally because Sleep Mode operates when the remote control is stored in a bag or if an object is placed on top of it.

Installation Methods

The projector supports the following four different projection methods.

Install according to the conditions of the installation location.

Warning

• A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

• If you use adhesives on the ceiling mount to prevent the screws from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the ceiling mount and could damage the projector.

When installing or adjusting the ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants and so on.

Attention

Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.

• Project images from front of the screen. (Front projection)

• Project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear projection)

• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from front of the screen.

(Front/Ceiling projection)

• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear/Ceiling projection)

55

q

• An optional ceiling mount is required when suspending

the projector from a ceiling.

s

p.84

• You can change the setting as follows by pressing down the

[A/V Mute] button on the remote control for about five seconds.

Set "Rear" or "Rear/Ceiling" in the configuration menu.

s

p.35

Cleaning

You should clean the projector if it becomes dirty or if the quality of projected images starts to deteriorate.

Cleaning the Projector's Surface

Clean the projector's surface by wiping it gently with a soft cloth.

If the projector is particularly dirty, moisten the cloth with water containing a small amount of neutral detergent, and then firmly wring the cloth dry before using it to wipe the projector's surface.

Attention

Do not use volatile substances such as wax, alcohol, or thinner to clean the projector's surface. The quality of the case may change or become discolored.

Cleaning the Lens

Use a commercially available cloth for cleaning glasses to gently wipe the lens.

Attention

Do not rub the lens with harsh materials or subject the lens to shocks, as it can easily become damaged.

Cleaning the Air Filter and Air Intake Vent

Clean the air filter and the air intake vent when the following message is displayed.

"The projector is overheating. Make sure nothing is blocking the air vent,

and clean or replace the air filter" s

"How to replace the air filter" p.61

Attention

If dust collects on the air filter it can cause the internal temperature of the projector to rise, and this can lead to problems with operation and shorten the optical engine's service life. Clean the air filter immediately when the message is displayed.

56

q

• If a message is frequently displayed, even after cleaning, it is time to replace the air filter. Replace it with a new air

filter.

s

p.61

• It is recommended that you clean these parts at least once every three months. Clean them more often than this if using the projector in a particularly dusty environment.

Replacing Consumables

This section explains how to replace the remote control batteries, the lamp, and the air filter.

Replacing the Remote Control Batteries

If delays in the responsiveness of the remote control occur or if it does not operate after it has been used for some time, it probably means that the batteries are becoming flat. When this happens, replace them with new batteries. Have two spare AA-size alkaline or manganese dry batteries ready to use. You can only use AA-size alkaline or manganese dry batteries.

Attention

Make sure you read the Safety Instructions/Support and Service

Guide before handling the batteries.

s

S-Video

The width-to-height ratio of a projected image or screen. When the width-to-height ratio is 16:9 or 16:10, the elongated screen is known as wide-screen. The aspect ratio for standard images is 4:3.

A video signal which has the luminance component and color component separated to provide better image quality.

Refers to images that consist of three independent signals: Y (luminance signal), Pb and Pr (color difference signals).

Video signals that have the video brightness signals and color signals mixed together. The type of signals commonly used by household video equipment (NTSC, PAL, and SECAM formats). The carrier signal Y (luminance signal) and chroma (color) signal that are contained in the color bar are overlapped to form a single signal.

The relative brightness of the light and dark areas of an image can be increased or decreased to make text and graphics stand out more clearly, or to make them appear softer. Adjusting this particular property of an image is called "contrast adjustment".

A sound format developed by Dolby Laboratories. Normal stereo is a 2-channel format that uses two speakers. Dolby Digital is a 6channel (5.1-channel) system which adds to this a center speaker, two rear speakers, and a sub-woofer.

An abbreviation for High-Definition Television that refers to high-definition systems which satisfy the following conditions.

• Vertical resolution of 720p or 1080i or greater (p = progressive g

, i = interlace g

)

• Screen aspect ratio g

of 16:9

Dolby Digital g

audio reception and playback (or output)

A method of image scanning whereby the image data is divided into fine horizontal lines that are displayed in sequence starting from left to right and then from top to bottom. The even-numbered lines and odd-numbered lines are displayed alternately.

A method of image scanning whereby the image data from a single image is scanned sequentially from top to bottom to create a single image.

The light-emitting element of a display maintains the same luminosity and color for an extremely short time. Because of this, the image must be scanned many times per second to refresh the light-emitting element. The number of refresh operations per second is called the

Refresh rate and is expressed in hertz (Hz).

An abbreviation for Standard Definition Television that refers to standard television systems which do not satisfy the conditions for

HDTV g High-Definition Television.

In this mode, wide-screen images in 16:9 mode are compressed in the horizontal direction so that they are stored on the recording medium as 4:3 images.

When these images are played back by the projector in squeeze mode, they are restored to their original 16:9 format.

An international standard for color intervals that was formulated so that colors that are reproduced by video equipment can be handled easily by computer operating systems (OS) and the Internet. If the connected source has an sRGB mode, set both the projector and the connected signal source to sRGB.

The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images are not of a good quality. The process of matching the phases of these signals (the relative position of the crests and the troughs in the signal) is called Synchronization. If the signals are not synchronized, flickering, blurriness, and horizontal interference occur.

The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images are not of a good quality. The process of matching the frequency of these signals (the number of crests in the signal) is called

Tracking. If tracking is not carried out correctly, wide vertical stripes appear in the signal.

ESC/VP21 Commands

Command List

The ESC and VP21 commands are commands sent from the computer to control the projector.

When the power ON command is transmitted to the projector, the power turns on and it enters warm-up mode. When the projector's power has turned on, a colon ":" (3Ah) is returned.

When a command is input, the projector executes the command and returns a ":", and then accepts the next command.

If the command being processed terminates due to a problem, an error message is output and a ":" is returned.
