Starting up the projector
1. Plug the power cord into the projector and into a
power outlet. Turn on the power outlet switch
(where fitted). Check that the POWER indicator
light on the projector lights orange after power has
been applied.
2. Open the lens cover. If it is closed, it could become
deformed due to the heat produced by the
projection lamp.
3. Press Power on the projector or remote control
to start the projector. As soon as the lamp lights
up, a "Power On Tone" will be heard. The POWER
indicator light flashes green and stays green when
the projector is on.
The start-up procedure takes about 30 seconds. In
the later stage of start-up, a start-up logo is
projected.
(If necessary) Rotate the focus ring to adjust the
image clearness.
To turn off the ring tone, see "Turning off the
Power On/Off Ring Tone" on page 41 for details.
4. If the projector is activated for the first time, select
your OSD language following the on-screen
instructions.
5. If you are prompted for a password, press the
arrow keys to enter a six-digit password. See
"Utilizing the password function" on page 27 for
details.
6. Switch all of the connected equipment on.
7. The projector will start to search for input signals.
The current input signal being scanned displays in
the upper left corner of the screen. If the projector doesn't detect a valid signal, the
message "No Signal" will continue displaying until an input signal is found.
You can also press SOURCE on the projector or remote control to select your
desired input signal. See "Switching input signal" on page 30 for details.
If the projector is still hot
from previous activity, it
will run the cooling fan
for approximately 90
seconds before
energizing the lamp.
