Notes

•Note that a lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to fluctuate slightly.

•A lamp is consumable item. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on conditions of use.)

•The DMDTM is made using extremely advanced technology, but there may be black spots (pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. Please note that these are not malfunctions.

•Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals p.41 , any resolutions not supported by this projector (XGA) will be expanded or shrunk, which will affect image quality slightly. To view high-quality images, it is recommended that the computer’s external output should be set to XGA (1024 ⋅ 768) resolution.

•With some models of computer having LCD displays or the like, displaying images simultaneously on the projector and the monitor’s display may prevent the images from displaying properly. If this happens, turn off the computer’s LCD display. For information on how to turn off the LCD display, see the owner’s manual of your computer.

•If a signal not supported by the projector is input, the “Unsupported signal” will appear.

•If no signal is being input from the connected device, the “No signal” will appear.

•If an unavailable operation button is pressed, the icon will appear.
