Usage Guidelines
•
Do not look directly into the projection lens when the projector is turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes.
•
Do not block the grills on the projector. Restricting the air flow can cause it to overheat and turn off. If this happens, you must wait a minute before attempting to turn it back on.
•
Handle the projector as you would any product with glass components. Be especially careful not to drop it.
•
Avoid leaving the projector in direct sunlight or extreme cold for extended periods of time. If this happens, allow it to reach room temperature before use.
•
Transport the projector in a vendor-approved hard or soft case.

Connecting the projector to a computer
Do you want to play your computer’s audio on the projector?
1
Plug either end of the audio cable (ordered separately) into the audio connector on your computer.
2
Plug the other end of the audio cable into the “Audio in” connector on the projector.
Do you want to display the image on your desktop computer’s monitor as well as on the projection screen?
1
Plug the monitor’s cable into the “Monitor VGA” connector on the projector.

S e t t i n g u p t h e P r o j e c t o r
NOTE: The USB mouse is supported for use with
Windows 98 or higher only.
NOTE: You do not need to restart your computer after connecting a
USB mouse to use it (it is hotpluggable). You must restart your computer after plugging in a PS-2 mouse.
Do you want to control the computer’s mouse from the projector’s remote?
If your computer has a PS/2 connector, use the PS/2 mouse cable.
1
Plug the green end of the PS/2 mouse cable into the mouse connector on your computer.
2
Plug the black end of the PS/2 mouse cable into the
“PS2/RS-232” connector on the projector.
If your computer has a USB connector and is running Windows 98, use the USB mouse cable.
1
Plug the flat end of the USB mouse cable into the mouse connector on your computer.
2
Plug the square end of the USB mouse cable into the “USB” connector on the projector.
You must have the appropriate USB drivers installed on your computer to use the USB feature. Windows 98 ships with the appropriate drivers.
Now you’re ready to power up the projector and your computer.
Skip to “Powering up the Projector” on page 13.

Connecting a Video Player
If your video device (VCR, DVD player, video camera) uses a round, one-prong composite video connector, use the composite audio/video (A/V) cable provided. The end with 2 connectors attaches to the projector, the other end attaches to the video device.
•
If your video device uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, use an S-video cable. S-video generates a higher quality image.
1
Plug the A/V cable’s round yellow connector into the “video-
out” connector on your video device (Figure 7). This connec-
tor may be labeled “To Monitor.”
•
If you’re using an S-video cable, connect the round black connector to the “S-video out” connector on the video device.
2
Plug the other yellow connector into the “Video” connector on the projector.
•
If you’re using S-video, plug the other end of the cable into the “S-Video” connector on the projector.

MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING
This section describes how to:
• clean the lens
• clean the air intake dust filters
• replace the projection lamp
• replace the batteries in the remote

Cleaning the Lens
Follow these steps to clean the projection lens:
1
Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner to a soft, dry cloth.
•
Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner, and don’t apply the cleaner directly to the lens.
•
Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals might scratch the lens.
2
Lightly wipe the cleaning cloth over the lens in a circular motion.
3
If you don’t intend to use the projector immediately, replace the lens cap.
Cleaning the Dust Filters
The dust filters catch dust and other particles in the air. If the filters become clogged, the projector does not cool properly and may malfunction.
1
Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
2
Turn the projector upside down and remove the screws on the filter doors.

Replacing the Projection Lamp
The lamp hour timer in the Service Info menu counts the number of hours the lamp has been in use. When the timer reaches 2000 hours, the Alarm LED lights red, indicating that it is time to change the lamp. You can order new lamp housings from your
Dukane dealer. See “Accessories” on page 40 for information.
Follow these steps to replace the projection lamp:
1
Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
2
Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.
3
Loosen the three captive screws on the lamp housing.
WARNING: To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before you replace the lamp. Never extract the lamp housing while the projector is operating.
WARNING: Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing.
In the unlikely event that the bulb ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated. The lamp module is designed to contain these fragments, but use caution when removing the lamp module.

Portable and Laptop Activation Chart
Many laptop computers do not automatically turn on their external video port when a projector is connected. Activation commands for some laptop computers are listed in the following table. (If your computer is not listed or the given command does not work, refer to the computer’s documentation for the appropriate command.) On many laptops, the activation function key is labeled with an icon, for example or the text CRT/LCD.
NOTE: Usually, pressing the key commands once activates the external video port, pressing it again activates both the external and internal ports, and pressing it a third time activates the internal port. Refer to your computer’s documentation for details on your specific model.

Using Video Mirroring with a PowerBook Computer
When you turn video mirroring (called SimulScan in newer PowerBooks—see below) on, the projector displays the same information that appears on your PowerBook’s built-in screen. When video mirroring is off, the projector acts like a separate display.
To turn on video mirroring for the first time:
1
Open the Monitors control panel; click on Monitor 2.
2
Set the number of colors you want.
3
Open the Control Strip, then click on the monitor icon.
4
Select “Turn Video Mirroring On.”
Now you can turn video mirroring on and off from the Control
Strip without having to open the Monitors control panel again.
When using video mirroring and high color graphics such as slide shows, the projected image occasionally might turn black and white. If this happens, perform the following steps:
1
Turn off video mirroring.
2
Open the Monitors control panel.
3
Move the white menu bar to Monitor 2 to set the projector as the primary monitor.
4
Restart the PowerBook.
Using SimulScan
Some newer PowerBooks display images on an external monitor or projector differently than previous ones. When using
SimulScan, the projector displays the same information that appears on your PowerBook
To select SimulScan:
1
Open the Control Panel, then double-click Monitors and
Sound.
2
In the Resolution list, choose the SimulScan mode, then click
OK.
3
If this changes your display settings, a dialog box appears.
Click OK to confirm the change.
