Precautions with regard to safety

„

Do not touch the surface of the projector lens with your bare hand.

If the surface of the lens becomes dirty from fingerprints or anything else, this will be magnified and projected onto the screen. Please put the lens cover on the projector when you do not use it.

„

Do not move the projector while it is operating or subject it to vibration or impact.

The service life of its internal components will be shortened.

„ z z z z z z z z

The projector has a high pressure mercury lamp that is characterized as follows:

The brightness of the lamp will decrease over time.

The lamp may explode or shorten the lamp life by shocks or chipping damage.

In rare cases, it may burst shortly after the first use.

The possibility of its bursting increases when the lamp is used beyond the replacement time.

If the lamp bursts, gas inside the lamp is released in the form of smoke.

The life of a mercury lamp varies according to the individual difference or conditions of use.

In particular, turning the power on and off frequently and/or repeatedly as well as continuous use for 22 hours will greatly affect the life cycle. Provide a lamp for replacement in advance.

Lamp deterioration accelerates when used continuously for 22 hours or more. Lamp deterioration due to continuous use can be reduced by using the “LAMP RELAY” function.

„

Connection to external device

When connecting the projector to a computer or external device, use the power cord supplied with the corresponding device and a commercially available shielded interface cable.

„

Optical components

It may be necessary to replace the optical components such as DLP chips and Polarizing plates in less than 1 year if using the projector in a high temperature environment or in a very dusty, oily smoke or tobacco smoke environment. For more details, please contact your dealer.

„

DLP chips

The DLP chips are precision-made. Note that in rare cases, pixels of high precision could be missing or always lit, but this is not a malfunction. Please take note that directing a laser beam onto the lens surface can damage the

DMD element.

Cleaning and maintenance

„

Ask an Authorized Service Center to clean the inside of the projector at least once a year.

If dust is left to build up inside the projector without being cleaned out, it can result in fire or problems with operation. It is a good idea to clean the inside of the projector before the season when humid weather arrives.

Ask your nearest Authorized Service Center to clean the projector when required.

Please discuss with the Authorized Service Center regarding cleaning costs.

z z z

Be sure to remove the power plug from the wall outlet before cleaning.

Use soft and dry cloth to clean the cabinet.

Use a soft cloth moistened in warm water to clean away oil. Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, and alcohol, detergents for kitchens, or a chemical cloth. If using such solvents, the outer case will become deformed, and the paint may peel off.

Do not clean the lens surface with fuzzy or dusty cloths.

If dust adheres to the lens, it will be magnified and projected on the screen. Use a soft and clean cloth to wipe off dust.

Disposal

When discarding this product, please contact your local authorities or dealer and ask for the correct method of disposal.

About Your Projector

Setting projector ID number to remote control

Each projector can be assigned a unique ID number, and the handheld remote’ s number must be set to match the intended projector.

The ID number of the projector is set to “ALL” on shipping, and use the ID ALL button of the remote control when using only a single projector.

1 ) Press <ID SET> button, and the projector (s) will display it’s current ID number onscreen. Within 5 seconds, use the numeric keys (0-9) to match the Remote’s ID number with that of the desired projector.

z z z z

Attention

Do not press <ID SET> button accidentally or carelessly because the ID number on the remote control can be set even when no projector is around.

If you do not enter the 2 digits ID number within 5 seconds after <ID SET> button has been pressed, the ID will remain at the number that was set before <ID SET> button was pressed.

Your specified ID number is stored in the remote control unit unless another one is specified later. However, the stored ID will be erased if the batteries of the remote control are left exhausted. When the batteries are replaced, set the same ID number again.

The ID number can be set to “ALL” or from “1” to “64”.

z

Note

Refer to “PROJECTOR ID” of “PROJECTOR SETUP

menu” (

Æ

page 75).

Using a wired remote control

When multiple projectors are connected as part of the system, connect to units with a M3 stereo mini jack commercial cable to simultaneously control multiple main units with a single remote control through the

REMOTE 1 IN/OUT terminal. It is effective to use the wired remote control in the environment in which an obstacle stands in the light path or where devices are susceptible to outside light.

Connect to the remote control wired terminal

Connections

Before connection to the projector

z z z z z z z

Read carefully the instruction manual for the device to be connected.

Turning off the power switch of the devices before connecting cables.

If any connection cable is not supplied with the device, or if no optional cable is available for connection of the device, prepare a necessary system connection cable to suit the device.

Video signals containing too much jitter may cause the images on the screen to randomly wobble or wafture.

In this case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be connected.

The projector accepts the following signals: VIDEO, S-VIDEO, analogue-RGB (with TTL sync. Level) and digital signal.

Some computer models are not compatible with the projector.

When using long cables to connect with each of equipment to the projector, there is a possibility that the image will not be output correctly unless a compensator is used.

Procedure for adjusting the focus balance

(tilt compensation in the lens mount)

Three focus adjustment screws on the lens mount may be used to compensate for uneven screen focus.

Q

Structure of lens mount

The three adjustment screws allow the lens to be tilted up and down, and three more screws lock down the adjustment.

- ENGLISH

Projecting

If the lens is heavy or the projector is installed so that it is tilted, the lens may be tilted, resulting in the focus becoming unbalanced.

In such a case, refer to the figure 3 and table below, and follow the procedure below to perform adjustment.

Q

Adjustment procedure

Display the internal test pattern grid, and defocus the image.

Adjust the lens focus till one or more sides of the grid comes into focus. Note the appropriate screws for the out-of-focus sides of the grid as described below.

Loosen the locking screws for each of the adjustment screws , and as needed, following the indications in the example. The screws to be adjusted correspond to the out-of-focus sides of the image.

z

Attention

Make adjustments in up to two places, and fully turn the screw clockwise in at least one place.

Turn the adjustment screws (corresponding to the locking screws loosened in step 3) counterclockwise slightly till the out-of-focus image sides are in focus. (Turning the screws counterclockwise moves the lens bracket and tilts the lens toward the screen.)

Readjust the lens shift position with the remote if needed.

Refocus the image as in steps 1 and 2 above. Fine adjust the focus evenness as needed, as described in step 4.

When adjustment is complete, tighten the locking screws.

Adjust the Focus.

Tool to be used : Allen hex socket driver or Allen wrench (2.5 mm diagonal hexagon)

An Allen wrench is supplied with the ET-D75LE6 and ET-D75LE8 optional lens.

This projector has a built-in brightness sensor for measuring the lamp power and a function for correcting the screen brightness according to the change in lamp power.

With this function, you can reduce changes in brightness caused by aging of the lamps when multiple screens are projected using multiple projectors, or minimize any fluctuations in brightness.

When using one projector, the maximum quantity of brightness control is obtained by subtracting the value of [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL GAIN] from 100 %. If the

[BRIGHTNESS CONTROL GAIN] is set to 100 %, the maximum quantity of control is 0 % and the brightness cannot be corrected using the brightness control function.

The brightness will not stabilize for 8 minutes after the lamp is turned on. Make adjustments after at least eight minutes has elapsed after the power is turned on.

The adjustment in [BRIGHTNESS CONTROL GAIN] will be reflected in all of the image signals, internal test pattern, and on-screen menu.

When setting [MODE] of the brightness control to [AUTO] or [PC], execute brightness control with the shutter open for at least 2 minutes.

If the shutter is closed within about 10 minutes after the lamp is turned on while the brightness control is set to [MODE], [AUTO], or [PC], the brightness cannot be measured. In this case, the brightness may be corrected about 2 minutes after the shutter is opened.

While [MODE] of the brightness control is set to [AUTO] or [PC], the [DYNAMIC IRIS] function is kept [OFF (No correction)].

While [MODE] of the brightness control is set to [AUTO] or [PC], the [LAMP POWER] is fixed to [HIGH] or [LOW].

When changing the lamp power, return [MODE] of the brightness control to [OFF], then change the lamp power and adjust the brightness control again.

While [MODE] of the brightness control is set to [AUTO] or [PC], the lamp power is measured automatically about 8 minutes after the lamp is turned on and then corrected so that the screen brightness will be the same as the reference brightness when the brightness control is executed. The lamp power is not measured for about

8 minutes after the lamp is turned on as it does not stabilize within this period.

While [MODE] of the brightness control is set to [AUTO], if the lamp is kept on for more than 25 hours, the brightness is corrected automatically every 25 hours.

While [LAMP SELECT] is set to [DUAL] and [MODE] is set to [AUTO], if the lamp goes off, the brightness is corrected as much as possible about 1 minute after.

While [MODE] of the brightness control is set to [AUTO] and [LINK] is set to [OFF], the brightness is corrected until the maximum quantity of correction is achieved.

The brightness may be dispersed largely because of dust sticking to the lens, screen, or inside of the projector, depending on the environment in which the projector has been installed.

If the brightness fluctuates significantly because of aging of the lamp or if the lamp has been replaced, re-adjust the brightness control.

Lamp unit

The LAMP unit is consumable product. You can check the duration of usage time using [LAMP1/LAMP2] of

[STATUS] ( Æ page 83) in the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu.

Replacement of the lamp unit should be carried out by a qualified technician.

Contact the dealer to purchase a replacement lamp unit (ET-LAD310:1 bulb unit, ET-LAD310W: 2 bulb units).

Precautions on lamp unit replacement

z z z z z

Handle the lamp unit with special care as the lamp is made of glass. Dropping or giving it a shock may cause it to burst or damaged.

Phillips screwdriver is necessary when replacing a lamp unit.

When replacing the lamp unit, be sure to hold it by the handle.

The lamp may burst. Replace the lamp unit carefully so that the broken pieces of the lamp glass will not scatter. When the projector is mounted on the ceiling, do not work directly under the projector or put your face closer to the projector.

For disposition of used lamps, request an industrial waste disposal contractor.

z z z z

Attention

Do not attempt replacement with an unauthorized lamp unit.

The part numbers of accessories and separately sold components are subject to change without notice.

Wait for more than 1 hour and make sure the lamp unit and the surroundings are cooled enough.

Prior to replacing the lamp unit, allow it to cool down to prevent the risk of burns, damage and other hazards.

J

When to replace the lamp unit

When the lamp is consumed, the brightness may decrease over time. 3 000 hours of use is the replacing time as a rough guide, and that might be shortened by the usage conditions, characteristics of the lamp unit or environmental conditions. Therefore, it is strongly recommended for the user to keep a spare lamp.

If the lamp unit has not been replaced after 3 000 hours of operation have elapsed, the power will turn off automatically approximately 10 minutes after it is turned on.

Where marked “ ” signals indicates in Plug and Play is compatible with EDID of projector. Unmarked signals in Plug and Play may also be compliant if input terminals are written in the format list. Where Plug and Play is unmarked and nothing is written in the format list, difficulties in projecting image may occur even when computer and projector appear to have same resolution.

If a signal of 1 125 (1 035)/60i is input, it will be displayed as a signal of 1 125 (1 080)/60i.

VESA CVT-RB (Reduced Blanking) compatible.

PT-DW8300U only

PT-DZ8700U only

Some loss of data occurs to make projection easier.

Note

The number of display dots of the PT-DZ8700U is 1 920 × 1 200, and the number of display dots of the PT-DS8500U is

1 400 × 1 050.

A signal of a different resolution than the above data is converted to the number of display dots and then displayed.

The “i” appearing after the resolution indicates an interlaced signal.

Flicker (line flicker) may be caused in images if interlace is connected.
