Shutting down the projector
By default, the projector automatically displays a blank screen after no active source is detected for 30 minutes. This blank screen helps preserve the life of the projector. The image returns when an active source is detected or a remote or keypad button is pressed.
Screen Save
You can make the blank screen appear after a different time interval using the
Settings>System
menu. See page 32. There are six time options, rang-
ing from five minutes to 30 minutes with five minute intervals.
Power Save
The projector also has a Power Save feature that, when activated, automatically turns the lamp off after no signals are detected for 20 minutes. After 10 additional minutes with no signal, the projector powers down. If an active signal is received before the projector powers down, the image is displayed.
You must press the Power button to display an image after 30 minutes have
passed. When Power Save is enabled, Screen Save is disabled. See page 31.
Turning off the projector
To turn off the projector, press the
power
button and verify that you want to turn the projector off by pressing the power button again within 3 seconds.
You can cancel the shutdown by not pressing the
power
button a second time. The lamp turns off and the LED blinks green for 1 minute. When the lamp has cooled, the LED lights green. Unplug the power cable to completely power off the projector.
Troubleshooting your setup
If your image appears correctly on the screen, skip to the next section
(page 23). If it does not, troubleshoot the setup.
The LED on top of the projector indicates the state of the projector and can help you troubleshoot.

Using the remote control
The remote uses two (2) provided AAA batteries. They are easily installed by sliding the cover off the remote’s back, aligning the + and - ends of the batteries, sliding them into place, and then replacing the cover.
To operate, point the remote at the projection screen or at the projector (not at the computer). The range of optimum operation is about 30 feet (9.14m).
To use the laser pointer, press and hold the
Laser
button. The laser turns off when the button is released, or times out after two (2) minutes of continuous operation.
WARNING
: Do not look into the laser beam emitted from the top of the remote control
.
Previous and Next buttons allow you to navigate through your PowerPoint presentation while in Slide Show mode. Connect the USB connector on the computer cable to your computer to use these buttons. When you do this for
the first time, the Add New Hardware wizard may appear. See page 8 for
details on loading the correct USB drivers.
The effect button allows you to invoke a user-definable action, such as
freeze or blank the screen (see page 32 to learn to program this button).
Troubleshooting the remote
• Make sure the batteries are installed in the proper orientation and are not dead. When battery power is adequate, the LED at the top of the remote lights when any button is pressed.
• Make sure you’re pointing the remote at the projector, not the computer, and are within the remote range of 30 feet (9.14m).
• If you are trying to advance PowerPoint slides, make sure the USB
cable is connected (page 6) and the correct drivers are installed
23
Using the audio
To play sound from the projector, connect your source to the Audio In connector on the projector.
To adjust the volume, use the buttons on the keypad.
Troubleshooting audio
If there is no sound, check the following:
• Make sure the audio cable is connected.
• Make sure mute isn’t active (used with the
Effect
key).
• Make sure the volume is turned up enough. Press the volume button on the keypad.
• Adjust the audio source.
• If playing a video, make sure the playback has not been paused.

Optimizing computer images
After your computer is connected properly and the computer’s image is on the screen, you can optimize the image using the onscreen menus. For gen-
eral information on using the menus, see page 27.
• Adjust the Keystone, Contrast, or Brightness in the Picture menu.
• Change the Aspect Ratio. Aspect Ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9. Choose the option that best fits your
input source. See page 28 for details.
• Adjust the Color Space, Color Temperature, or Color Control in the
Advanced menu.
• Adjust the Phase, Tracking, or Horizontal or Vertical position in the
Advanced menu.
• Once you have optimized the image for a particular source, you can save the settings using Presets. This allows you to quickly recall these
Presentation features
Several features are provided to make it easier to give presentations. The
following is an overview, details are found in the menu section on page 27.
• The remote’s
Effect
button allows you to assign various features to the key. The default effect is About, which displays information about the projector and current source. You can select from Blank, Mute, Aspect
Ratio, Source, Auto Image, Freeze, Zoom, and About. See page 32 for
details.
• The Freeze effect allows you to freeze the displayed image. This is useful if you want to make changes on your computer without your audience seeing them.
• The Startup Logo and Blank Screen menu options let you change the
default startup screen to a black, white, or blue screen. See page 32.
• Two menu options, Power Save and Screen Save, are provided to automatically shut down the projector after several minutes of inactivity or
display a black screen. This helps preserve lamp life. See page 31 and
• A Lamp Mode option is also available to let you optimize lamp bright-
ness or lamp life. See page 31.
