Setting up your projector (continued)

Front projection, ceiling mounting

For ceiling mounting, you need the ceiling mount kit designed for this projector. Ask a specialist for installation. For details, consult your dealer.

The warranty on this projector does not cover any damage caused by use of any non-recommended ceiling mount kit or installation of the ceiling mount kit in an improper location.

When using the projector mounted on the ceiling, set IMAGE REVERSE in the INSTALLATION menu to MIRROR INVERT. See page 27.

When the projector is mounted on the ceiling, images may appear darker than those projected in the case of tabletop mounting. This isn’t a product malfunction.

Ask your installation specialist to provide an A/C power switch. When you do not use the projector, be sure to shut down the main power by the switch.

Do not install the projector where the exhaust vents are exposed to air emitted by an air conditioning. Such installation may cause a breakdown.

Do not install the projector near a fire alarm because it emits hot air from its exhaust vents.

Important:

We don’t recommend using the projector at an altitude of 1500 meters or higher. Use at an altitude of 1500 meters or higher may affect the projector’s life.

TRIGGER terminal

The TRIGGER terminal on the rear of the projector is a terminal that outputs a 12 V signal to control an externally connected device (electric screen) when images are projected.

TRIGGER

To externally connected device

Ring (NC)

Tip (12 V)

To use the TRIGGER terminal, set TRIGGER OUT to SCREEN or ANAMORPHIC in the INSTALLATION menu. (The factory default is OFF. See page 27 for details.) Use the following steps to change the setting.

Rear projection

Ask a specialist for installation. For details, consult your dealer.

• For rear projection, set IMAGE REVERSE in the

INSTALLATION menu to MIRROR. See page 27.

Caution:

Placing the projector directly on a carpet impairs ventilation by the fans, causing damage or failure. Put a hard board under the projector to facilitate ventilation.

Place the projector at least 50 cm (or 20 inch) away from the wall to prevent the air inlet grille and the air outlet grilles that emit hot air from being blocked.

Do not use the projector in the following locations and manners, which may cause fire or electric shock.

In a dusty or humid place.

In a sideways position, or with the lens facing down.

Near a heater.

In an oily, smoky, or damp place such as a kitchen.

In direct sunlight.

Where the temperature rises high, such as in a closed car.

Where the temperature is lower than +41ºF (or +5ºC) or higher than +95ºF (or +35ºC ).

1.Display the INSTALLATION menu.

2.Select TRIGGER OUT by pressing the p or q button.

3.Select SCREEN or ANAMORPHIC by pressing the t or u button.

To cancel the menu:

4. Press the MENU button.

Caution:

Do not use the signal output from the TRIGGER terminal as a power for other devices.

Do not link the TRIGGER terminal with an audio terminal of other device because that device may be damaged.

The rated current for the TRIGGER terminal is

200 mA. If you use a current exceeding this rating, a failure may occur.

For information about electric screens, please contact screen manufacturers.
