Important Information
Fire and Shock Precautions
• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow at least 8 inches (20cm) of space between your projector and a wall.
• Do not try to touch the ventilation outlet on the rear as it can become heated while the projector is turned on and immediately after the projector is turned off.
• Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from falling into your projector. Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as a wire or screwdriver into your project. If something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immediately and have the object removed by qualified service personnel.
• Do not place any objects on top of the projector.
• Do not touch the power plug during a thunderstorm. Doing so can cause electrical shock or fire.
• The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-240V AC 50/60 Hz.
Ensure that your power supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your projector.
• Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage to your eyes could result.
• Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, therefore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out of the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury to the eyes.
• Do not cover the lens with the black lens cap or equivalent while the projector is on.
Doing so can lead to melting of the cap and possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light output.
• Do not place any objects, which are easily affected by heat, in front of the projector lens or a projector exhaust vent. Doing so could lead to the object melting or getting your hands burned from the heat that is emitted from the light output and exhaust.
• Handle the power cable carefully. A damaged or frayed power cable can cause electric shock or fire.
Do not use any power cables other than the one supplied by NEC.
Do not bend or tug the power cable excessively.
Do not place the power cable under the projector, or any heavy object.
Do not cover the power cable with other soft materials such as rugs.
Do not heat the power cable
Do not handle the power plug with wet hands. v

Lamp Replacement
To replace either of the lamps, follow all instructions provided on page
.
Be sure to replace the lamp when the following is displayed on the screen:
If you continue to use the lamp after the lamp has reached the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury.
If this happens, contact your dealer for lamp replacement.
Important Lamp Characteristic
The projector has a high-pressure mercury lamp as a light source.
A characteristic of mercury lamps is that brightness gradually decreases with age. Also repeatedly turning the lamp on and off will increase the possibility of reduced brightness.
CAUTION:
When removing the lamp from a ceiling-mounted projector, make sure that no one is under the projector. Glass fragments could fall if the lamp has been burned out. vii

Common Problems and Solutions
These guidelines provide tips to deal with problems you may encounter while using the projector. If the problem remains unsolved, contact your dealer for assistance.
Often the problem is something as simple as a loose connection. Check the following before proceeding to the problem-specific solutions.
• Use some other electrical device to confirm that the electrical outlet is working.
• Ensure the projector is turned on.
• Ensure all connections are securely attached.
• Ensure the attached device is turned on.
• Ensure a connected PC is not in suspend mode.
• Ensure a connected notebook computer is configured for an external display.
(This is usually done by pressing an Fn-key combination on the notebook.)
Tips for Troubleshooting
In each problem-specific section, try the steps in the order suggested. This may help you to solve the problem more quickly.

Operation Using HTTP Browser
Overview
The use of HTTP server functions will allow control of the projector from a web browser without the installation of special software. Please be sure to use “Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.x” or a higher version for the web browser. (This device uses “JavaScript” and
“Cookies” and the browser should be set to accept these functions. The setting method will vary depending on the version of browser. Please refer to the help files and the other information provided in your software).
Access is gained to the HTTP server functions by specifying the following address in the entry column of the URL: http:// <the projector’s IP address> /index.html http:// <the projector's IP address> /lanconf.html
Note:
The display or button responses can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending the settings of your network. Should this happen, consult your network administrator. The projector may not respond if its buttons are repeatedly pressed in rapid intervals. Should this happen, wait a moment and repeat. If you still can’t get any response, turn off and back on the projector.
Preparation Before Use
Make network connections, set up the projector and confirm that it is complete before
engaging in browser operations (see LAN Settings on page 84 for more information).
Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and the setting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have actually been set will not be displayed depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser may not be reflected in operation. It is recommended that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable.
Handling of the Address for Operation via a Browser
Regarding the actual address that is entered for the address or entered to the URL column when operation of the projector is via a browser, the host name can be used as it is when the host name corresponding to the IP address of the projector has been registered to the domain name server by a network administrator, or the host name corresponding to the IP address of the projector has been set in the “HOSTS” file of the computer being used.
Example 1:
When the host name of the projector has been set to pj.nec.co.jp,
http://pj.nec.co.jp/index.html is specified for the address or the entry column of the URL.
Example 2:
121
8. Specifications
