Setting up the LitePro 580

This chapter describes how to position the LitePro for optimum viewing, how to connect computers and video equipment to the LitePro, and how to power up the projector.

Getting started

1.Choose a location where you can dim the lighting.

To use the LitePro in a well-lit room, use a special high gain screen, which you can obtain from your In Focus dealer.

2.Place the LitePro on a flat surface.

3.Orient the LitePro so that its lens is at a right angle to the projec- tion screen.

If you want to use the LitePro’s Rear Project feature, set it up behind a translucent screen. See “Rear Proj” on page 28.

4.Remove the lens cover.

5.Plug the power cord into the LitePro, then plug it into your elec- trical outlet.

Always use the power cord that was shipped with your

LitePro. The LitePro accepts power from 110-120 VAC and 220- 240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz, three-wire type grounded sources. When you disconnect the LitePro, always remove the power cord from the electrical outlet first, then from the LitePro.

It is recommended that you connect a power strip between the LitePro and your electrical outlet to protect against a power surge.
