This section describes how to set up your MultiSync VT440/VT540 projector and how to connect video and audio sources.

Setting up Your Projector

Your MultiSync VT440/VT540 Projector is simple to set up and use. But before you get started, you must first:

1.Determine the image size.

2.Set up a screen or select a non-glossy white wall onto which you can project your image.

Carrying the Projector: Always carry your projector by the handle. Ensure that the power cable and any other cables connecting to video sources are disconnected before moving the projector.

When moving the projector or when it is not in use, cover the lens with the lens cap.

(There is approximately 10 degrees of up and down adjustment for the front of the projector.)

Adjusting the Tilt Foot

1)Press and hold the Tilt button on the front of the projector.

2)Lift the front edge of the projector to the height you want, and release the button to lock the Adjustable Tilt Foot.

Selecting a Location

The further your projector is from the screen or wall, the larger the image. The minimum size the image can be is approximately 25" (0.64 m) measured diagonally when the projector is roughly 4 feet (1.2 m) from the wall or screen. The largest the image can be is 300" (7.6 m) when the projector is about 39.3 feet (12.0 m) from the wall or screen.

Using a Tabletop or Cart

1.Place your projector on a flat level surface at the optimal distance from the screen or wall so you realize the size image you want. (Avoid having bright room lighting or sun light directly on the screen or wall where you’ll be projecting the image.)

2.Connect the power cable, remove the lens cap and turn the projec- tor on. (If no input signal is available, the projector will display a background image.)

3.Ensure that the projector is square to the screen.
