Operation
Starting up the projector
1. Plug the power cord into the projector and
into a wall socket. Turn on the wall socket
switch (where fitted). Check that the
POWER indicator light on the projector
lights orange after power has been applied.
2. Press POWER on the projector or
remote control to start the projector and a
start up tone sounds. 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
startup 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 47 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.
3. If you are prompted for a password, press the arrow keys to enter a five digit
password. See "Utilizing the password function" on page 30 for details.
4. Switch all of the connected equipment on.
5. 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 33 for details.
If the frequency/resolution of the input signal exceeds the projector's operating range, you will
see the message 'Out of Range' displayed on a blank screen. Please change to an input signal
which is compatible with the projector's resolution or set the input signal to a lower setting.
See "Timing chart" on page 66 for details.
To maintain the lamp life, once you turn the projector on, wait at least 5 minutes before turning
if off.
