Important Safety Information
WARNING: Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is turned on; the bright light can damage your eyes.
Never let children look into the lens when it is on. Never open any cover on the projector, except the lamp and filter covers. Dangerous electrical voltages inside the projector can severely injure you. Except as specifically explained in the User’s Guide or this Supplement, do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
WARNING: The projector and its accessories come packaged in plastic bags. Keep plastic bags away from small children to avoid any risk of suffocation.
Caution: When you replace the lamp, never touch the new lamp with your bare hands; the invisible residue left by the oil on your hands may shorten the lamp life. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.

Appendix A:
Connecting to a Desktop
Computer
This appendix describes how to connect the projector to your desktop computer and turn everything on. The projector must be connected to a computer or a video source such as a VCR, camcorder, digital camera, DVD player, or laser disc player before it can project any images. You may also want to set up the projector for one or more of the following:
■ Connect the mouse cable to use the remote control as a wireless mouse. Except for some laptops, this disables your computer’s mouse. You use the remote control’s pointer to control the screen cursor.
■ Provide audio for one or both image sources. The audio source can be the computer, video source, or another device such as a stereo.
Connect to an external speaker or PA system to amplify the audio (see your User’s Guide for instructions).
■
Positioning the Projector
Before you can set up the projector, you need to decide where to place it. Keep the following in mind:
■ Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface.
■
■
■
Make sure the projector is within 10 feet of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
Place the computer and/or video source within 5 feet of the projector.
Make sure the projector is at right angles to the screen.
Otherwise, your image will be distorted.
Connecting to a Desktop Computer 5
appendix.book Page 6 Tuesday, December 14, 1999 4:08 PM note
It is easier to position the projector when the screen is directly in front of the room.
If the screen is placed diagonally in a corner, it is much more difficult to position the projector perpendicular to the screen and get a non-distorted image.
Most presenters find it convenient to place the projector (and computer) in the front of the room. With this arrangement, the projector is placed close to the screen. You need to raise the front of the projector (by extending the legs) in order to position the image high enough on the screen. Then you can use the projector’s keystone control to correct the distortion caused by tilting up the front of the projector.
The distance between the projector and the screen determines the actual image size. Use the general guidelines in the table below to determine the proper distance.
