Cautions Concerning the Setup of the Projector

For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, SHARP recommends that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette smoke. When the projector is subjected to these environments, the lens and part of filter must be cleaned more often than usual. As long as the projector is properly maintained in this manner, use in these environments will not reduce the overall operation life. Please note that all internal cleaning must be performed by an Authorized SharpVision Service Center or Dealer.

• Do not expose the projector to extreme heat or cold.

Operating temperature: 41

°F to 95°F (+5°C to 35°C)

Storage temperature: –4

°F to 140°F (–20°C to +60°C)

Notes on Operation

• The exhaust ventilative hole, the lamp cage cover and adjacent areas may get extremely hot during projector operation. To prevent injury, do not touch these areas until they have sufficiently cooled down.

• Allow at least 1 foot (30 cm) of space between the exhaust ventilative hole and the nearest wall or obstruction.

• If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection device will automatically turn off the projector lamp. This does not indicate a malfunction. Remove the projector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes.

Then turn on the power by plugging the power cord back in. This will return the projector to the normal operating condition.

Placement of the Projected Image Using the Keystone Correction

Place the projector at a distance from the screen that allows images to be projected onto the screen by referring to the projection distance tables on pages 21 and 22.

: Screen area

1 Project the test pattern of the Keystone correction function onto the screen. Rotate the Focus ring until the image on the screen becomes clear. (See page 16.)

2 Change the projection angle using the Swivel Stand to properly project images onto the screen. (See page 17).

3 Align the edge of the screen closest to the projector with the test pattern by adjusting the zoom and the Swivel Stand. (See pages 16 and 17.)

XVZ90U(E)#p15_21.p65

4 Adjust the Keystone function so that the size of the projected image matches the screen size. (See page 19.)

5 Align the image on the screen by adjusting the zoom function and the

Swivel Stand. If the vertical length of the projected image does not match the screen use the “Subtitle” function. (See page 39.)

6 Adjust the focus so that the projected image is in focus at the center of the screen. (See page 16.)

• The aspect ratio of the projected image shifts slightly when the lens shift is at a position other than the top position.

• The aspect ratio of the projected image also shifts slightly when the “H

Keystone” and “V Keystone” functions are adjusted simultaneously.

E-20

20/8/02, 7:22 pm

Adjusting the Projection Distance

Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and leveled to achieve an optimal image.

Move the projector forward or backward if the edges of the image are distorted.

• The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. If the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing difficult.

• Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly onto the screen washes out colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.

• A polarizing screen cannot be used with this projector.

Standard Setup (Front Projection)

Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according to the desired screen size. (See the tables below.)

The figures in the tables are based upon projecting an image so that it occupies the entire screen.

Image Projection

Rear Projection

• Place a translucent screen between the projector and the audience.

• Use the projector’s menu screen to reverse the projected image. (See page 42 for use of this function.)

• Optimal image quality can be achieved when the projector is positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and leveled.

Projection Using a Mirror

• When the distance between the projector and a screen is not sufficient for normal rear projection, you can use a mirror to reflect the image onto the screen.

• Place a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens.

• Project the normal image onto the mirror.

• The image reflected from the mirror is projected onto the translucent screen.

CAUTION

• When using a mirror, be sure to carefully position both the projector and the mirror so the light does not shine into the eyes of the audience.

Ceiling-mount Projection

• It is recommended that you use the optional Sharp ceiling-mount bracket for this installation.

• Before mounting the projector, remove the Swivel

Stand. (See page 17 for removing and attaching the

Swivel Stand.)

• Before mounting the projector, contact your nearest

Authorized SharpVision Service Center or Dealer to obtain the recommended ceiling-mount bracket

(commercially available). (AN-CM260 ceiling-mount bracket, AN-EP101B extension tube for AN-CM260.)

• When the projector is in the inverted position, use the upper edge of the screen as the base line.

• Use the projector’s menu screen to select the appropriate projection mode. (See page 42 for use of this function.)

Glossary

Aspect ratio

Width and height ratio of an image. The normal aspect ratio of a computer and video image is 4 : 3. There are also wide images with an aspect ratio of 16 : 9 and 21 : 9.

Auto Sync

Optimizes projected computer images by automatically adjusting certain characteristics.

Background

Initial setting image projected when no signal is being input.

Clock

Clock adjustment is used to adjust vertical noise when clock level is incorrect.

CLR Temp (Color temperature)

Function that can be used to adjust the color temperature to suit the type of image input to the projector. Decrease the color temperature to create warmer, reddish images for natural flesh tones, or increase to create cooler, bluish images for a brighter picture.

Composite sync

Signal combining horizontal and vertical sync pulses.

Digital keystone correction

Function to digitally correct a distorted image when the projector is set up at an angle, smoothes out jaggies on keystone images and compresses the image not only horizontally but vertically keeping the 4 : 3 aspect ratio.

Digital shift

Shifts image up or down easily by / buttons when RESIZE mode of input image is NORMAL, BORDER, or STRETCH of COMPUTER, VIDEO and DTV inputs.

DVI (Digital Visual Interface)

Display digital interface that also supports Analog interfaces.

GAMMA

Image quality enhancement function that offers a richer image by brightening the darker portions of the image without altering the brightness of the brighter portions. You can select from four different modes: Standard, Black Detail, White Detail and Brighten.

HDCP

Digital entertainment content is protected from copying with the HDCP system.

Intelligent compression and expansion

High quality resizing of lower and higher resolution images to fit the projector’s native resolution.

Phase

Phase shift is a timing shift between isomorphic signals with the same resolution. When phase level is incorrect, the projected image typically displays horizontal flicker.

RESIZE

Allows you to modify or customize the picture display mode to enhance the input image. You can select from four different modes: NORMAL, FULL, BORDER and STRETCH.

RS-232C

Function to control the projector from the computer by using the RS-232C ports on the projector and computer.

Stretch

Mode that stretches the 4:3 image horizontally to display it on the wide screen.

Sync on green

Video signal mode of a computer which overlaps horizontal and vertical sync signal to green color signal pin.
