Shutting down the projector

The projector automatically blanks the screen after no active source is detected for 30 minutes. This blank screen helps preserve the life of the pro- jector. The image returns when an active source is detected or a remote or keypad button is pressed. The Interactive Display on the projector indicates the shutdown status.

Screen Save

You can make the blank screen appear after five minutes by turning on Screen Save in the Settings>System menu. See page 35. There are six time options for the Screen Save feature. They range from five minutes to 30 min- utes with five minute intervals.

Power Save

The projector also has a Power Save feature that automatically turns the lamp off after no signal is detected for 20 minutes. After 10 additional min- utes with no signal, the projector powers down. If an active signal is received before the projector powers down, the image is displayed. You must press the Power button to display an image after 30 minutes have passed. When Power Save is enabled, Screen Save is disabled. See page 35.

Turning off the projector

To turn off the projector, press the Power button and verify that you want to turn the projector off by pressing the Power button again within 3 seconds. You can cancel the shutdown by not pressing the Power button a second time. The lamp turns off and the LED blinks green for 1 minute while the fans continue to run to cool the lamp. When the lamp has cooled, the LED lights green and the fans stop. Unplug the power cable to completely power off the projector.

Troubleshooting your setup

If your image appears correctly on the screen, skip to the next section (page 26). If it does not, troubleshoot the setup. The Interactive Display and LED on top of the projector indicate the state of the projector and can help you troubleshoot.

LP 600 specifications

The InFocus LP 600 is a versatile, portable projector designed to meet the demands of both professional presentations and casual viewing. Launched in the early 2000s, this model marked a significant advancement in projector technology, compactness, and image quality, catering well to various environments including corporate settings, classrooms, and home theaters.

One of the main features of the LP 600 is its impressive brightness, boasting a lumen output that facilitates clear and vibrant displays even in rooms with ambient light. This makes it an ideal choice for conference rooms or classrooms where control over lighting might be limited. The projector's resolution supports SVGA (800x600), which, while standard at the time, delivers sharp images and graphics essential for presentations.

The LP 600 employs LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) technology, which enhances color saturation and produces more accurate colors compared to some older DLP (Digital Light Processing) models. This technology enables the projection of high-quality images, making it suitable for multimedia presentations that include text, images, and video content.

Portability is another hallmark of the InFocus LP 600. Weighing in at just a few kilograms, it can easily be transported between different locations, from the office to off-site meetings or educational events. Its compact size does not compromise on functionality, as the projector includes a variety of input options, including VGA and composite video, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices.

In terms of user-friendliness, the LP 600 features intuitive controls and settings that make setup straightforward, allowing users to adjust focus, zoom, and aspect ratios with ease. The projector also incorporates a built-in speaker, which, while not the most powerful, adds convenience for smaller presentations where an external sound source might not be necessary.

Durability and reliability are key characteristics of the InFocus LP 600, built with quality materials designed to withstand frequent use. Additionally, it offers decent lamp life, reducing the frequency of replacements which can be a significant cost in long-term usage.

Overall, the InFocus LP 600 stands out as a solid option for anyone seeking a reliable, portable projector that combines quality performance with ease of use, making it a valued tool in any presenter’s toolkit. Whether for business or education, its balance of features and technologies ensures effective communication and engagement through visual representation.
