The projector has an ID number setting function that helps the user to control two or more projectors either simultaneously or separately with a single remote control. The ID number is set to “ALL” by default. Hence the ID number need not be set when only one projector is used.

1–64 : The ID number is set in this range.

Note • The ID number can be set to “ALL”, or selected from “1” to “64”.

•If the projectors are given ID numbers, their remote controls must be assigned the same ID numbers, respectively.

•If the ID number of a projector is set to “ALL”, it can be controlled by the remote control or the PC with any ID number.

If multiple projectors are used and some of them have their IDs set to “ALL”, they cannot be controlled separately from the projectors with other ID numbers.

For details on remote control ID setting, see page 15.

FRONT/REAR

“FRONT/REAR” is used to choose the appropriate projection scheme from Front and Rear:

FRONT : Choose this option if pictures are projected from the front of a reflective screen.

REAR : Choose this if pictures are projected from the back of a translucent screen.

DESK/CEILING

DESK/CEILING is used to choose the appropriate projection scheme from Desk and Ceiling:

DESK : Choose this option if the projector is installed on a floor-standing base.

CEILING : Choose if the projector is installed on the ceiling using the optional ceiling mount bracket.

LAMP SELECT

“LAMP SELECT” is used to choose from Single Lamp and Dual Lamp modes depending on user’s needs or viewing conditions. In Single Lamp mode, the projector may automatically select either lamp from the 2 lamps, or the particular lamp can be specified.

DUAL	: Two lamps are used simultaneously.
SINGLE : One of either lamps is used (lamp with
	shorter operating hours is
	automatically selected).
LAMP1	: Lamp Unit 1 is always used.
LAMP2	: Lamp Unit 2 is always used.
When one of the above settings is selected, it will
take effect after ENTER is pressed.
Note	• If, in the “SINGLE”, “LAMP1” or
	“LAMP2” mode, one lamp remains off
	or the currently active lamp exceeds
	1 500 hours of cumulative operating
	time (when “HIGH” is selected as the
	lamp power setting), the other lamp
	will light. If, in the “DUAL” mode, one
	lamp remains off or the currently active
	lamp exceeds 1 500 hours of
	cumulative operating time (when
	“HIGH” is selected as the lamp power
	setting), the other lamp alone will light.
	However, if both lamps remain off or
	the 1 500 hours of cumulative
	operating time are exceeded, the
	projector will enter the standby mode.
	• If only one lamp is installed in the
	projector, set lamp mode to either
	“LAMP1” or “LAMP2”. “LAMP1” or
	“LAMP2” is selected. If the
	corresponding lamp is not installed,
	the other lamp will turn on. The same
	holds for “LAMP2” mode.
	• The colors of the items indicate the
	status.
	Green	Current setting

	Cyan	Now changing from one

		status to another
	Red	Lamp that has failed to light

	White	Any other status

This time period is 4 000 hours when long life lamp units (page 43) are used.

LAMP POWER

The luminance of the projection lamp can be changed depending on user’s needs or the viewing conditions.

HIGH : Set when high brightness is necessary.

LOW : Set when high brightness is not necessary.

Note • When set to “LOW”, it is possible to reduce power consumption, reduce

operating noise and extend lamp service life.

•“LOW” is set automatically when long life lamp units are used.
