1-1. Features

• DLP Cinema

®

projector

Complies with the strict projection standards defined by the Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI) industry group in the United States using leading imaging technology of NEC. It also supports 3D projection and high frame rates (HFR).

• Employs a long life laser light source

The projector employs a newly developed laser light source offering excellent reliability and redundancy. Since the laser light source has a long life (approx. 30,000 hours), this delivers low cost operation by removing the need for maintenance such as replacing and adjusting the light module over extended periods of time. Furthermore, it reduces the risk of the light source suddenly shutting off and leaving a black screen.

• Delivers reduced installation space and increased freedom through a more compact and lightweight body

The use of a 0.98" DLP cinema chip together with integration of the light module into the projector main unit both delivers a reduced installation area as well as improving the degree of freedom of installation, such as removing the need to connect to external ventilation ducting and supporting both pedestal-mounted and ceiling-suspended installation. A wide variety of optional lenses (sold separately) are also available for the projector in order to support a wide variety of installation methods (a lens is not mounted when the projector is shipped from the factory).

• Equipped with easy to use functions

(1) Lens memory function and light memory function that can be operated with one touch.

The projector is equipped with a lens memory function that can save the zoom position and shift position of the lens and a light memory function that can save the brightness setting separately for each input signal. This makes it possible to project using preconfigured settings simply by selecting the signal when projecting multiple different input signals each with different screen size and brightness settings (Refer to “6-8. Related products list” (page 78 ) for details on the lenses that support the lens memory function).

(2) Built-in automatic adjustment function that makes the brightness and color of the light source uniform

Degradation of brightness and variations in color that occur as the light source is used for longer periods of time are kept to a minimum (the period over which variations in brightness can be limited varies depending on the brightness setting).

1. What’s in the Box? and the Names of the Projector Parts

(3) Frequently used titles can be registered in preset buttons

The projector has been equipped with 8 preset buttons that make it easy to select registered title (input signal). To this projector,

100 titles at most can be registered (input signal registration). Among the registered titles, any 16 titles can be assigned to the preset buttons.

(4) You can operate and configure the projector via a network from a PC

You can operate and configure the projector via a network from a PC by using the separately supplied software Digital Cinema

Communicator (DCC) for S2.

• Excellent dust-proof performance

A circulating cooling system is used to cool the optical components. The system converts warm air into cold air and circulates it inside a sealed structure, so external air does not come into contact with the optical components. This prevents dust and dirt from getting on the optical components, maintaining brightness.

* Note that dust and dirt cannot be completely shut out.

• Reduced running cost thanks to the use of metal filters

The filters are made of metal, so they can be used repeatedly and do not have to be replaced when performing periodic cleaning.

This not only reduces running costs, but also contributes to preserving the environment since no spent filters are discarded.

2-2. Connecting the Power Cable

Consult your dealer for installing the power cable to the projector.

If AC power is supplied to the projector and light with one power cable (C1 connection), it is not necessary to connect the cable to the projector power supply.

The power cable is not included with the projector. Use a power cable that meets the standards and power supply voltage of the country where you are using the projector. Ask your dealer for the power cable to select and purchase.

WARNING

• Consult your dealer for installing the power cable to the projector.

DO NOT install the power cable by yourself. Doing so may cause a fire or electric shock.

• Before connecting the power cables, check that the projector power switch and light power switch of the projector is turned off. Implement the connection with AC power shut off.

• Be sure to ground the equipment to ensure safety. Use a power cable that meets the standards and power supply voltage of the country where you are using the projector, and always connect the equipment to the ground. If the ground is not connected, it may cause electrical shocks.

• When connecting the power cable plugs to the AC IN and the electrical outlet, securely insert the plugs all the way in.

• For C2 connection, be sure to install the power cord stopper. If the connection between the power cable plug and the electrical outlet is loose, the plug area may generate heat, causing burns and accidents.

Maintenance of Your

Projector

56

NOTE

Please request your dealer to perform cleaning of the projector inside.

5-1. Cleaning the Cabinet

WARNING

Please do not use a spray containing flammable gas to remove dust attached to the cabinet, etc. Doing so may result in fires.

Be sure to always check that the AC power supply of the projector is disconnected before carrying out maintenance of the projector.

• Wipe with a dry, soft cloth without nap.

When the cabinet is excessively dirty, wipe with cloth well wrung after being dampened with a neutral detergent diluted with water and then finish up with a dry cloth.

When you use a chemical dust cloth, follow the instructions in the manual attached to it.

• Do not use a solvent, such as thinner or benzene. The coating may deteriorate or peel off.

• When removing dust on the ventilation opening, suck it off using an adapter with a brush on a vacuum cleaner. Never allow the cleaner without an adapter to come into direct contact or use a nozzles adapter in cleaning.

• Clean the ventilation opening at regular intervals. Dust, if allowed to accumulate there, may cause heating inside, which leads to functional trouble. The interval, which can vary with the location of your projector, is about 100 hours.

• Do not damage the cabinet by scratching it or allowing hard objects to hit it. This can scratch the projector.

• Consult your dealer/distributor about cleaning the inside of the projector.

NOTE

Do not allow insecticide or other volatile liquid to splash on the cabinet, lens or screen. Also, do not allow any rubber or plastic object to remain in contact with the cabinet for a long time. The coating may deteriorate or peel off.

5. Maintenance of Your Projector

5-2. Cleaning the Lens

Clean the lens the same way as with camera lens (using a commercially available camera blower or cleaning paper for glasses).

Take care not to damage the lens when cleaning.

WARNING

• Do not look into the light module while the projector is ON. Strong light is emitted from the projector and visual impairment could result.

• Please do not use a spray containing flammable gas to remove dust attached to the lens, etc. Doing so may result in fires.

5-3. Cleaning the Air Filters

Air filters are provided on the projector's air intakes to prevent dust from entering the projector. Clean the air filters regularly to maintain the performance of the projector.

• The usage time of the air filters can be checked at “Information” - “Usage” (page 52 ) on the adjustments menu.

WARNING

• If dust accumulates on the air filters, air intake to the projector will be insufficient and the internal temperature will rise, leading to fire or malfunction.

• Do not use a flammable gas spray to remove dust from the filters. Doing so may lead to fire.

CAUTION

• Before cleaning the air filters, turn off the power, wait for the cooling fan to come to a complete stop, turn off the projector power switch and the light power switch, interrupt the AC power supply, and make sure that the projector has cooled sufficiently. Removing the filter units during operation may cause burns or electric shock if the inside is touched.
