Introduction

Thank you for choosing InFocus® ScreenPlay®

Congratulations on purchasing this InFocus ScreenPlay High Definition Television (HDTV) featuring Digital Light Processing™ (DLP™) technology—a true viewing experience. Your purchase decision represents an investment in a new generation of technology—DLP and HDTV. Even though this is a technologically advanced HDTV, it is the most user-friendly of its kind—with comprehensive on-screen instructions that guide you through all of the TV’s features.

This introduction has three parts that describe why an InFocus ScreenPlay HDTV featuring DLP technology is an excellent choice:

Part 1: DLP—brilliance in color, design, and technology

Part 2: Why InFocus ScreenPlay is better

Part 3: Other Key Features of owning an InFocus ScreenPlay HDTV

Part 1: DLP— brilliance, in color, design, and technology

InFocus ScreenPlay brings you brilliant pictures with Digital Light Processing (DLP) system — a brilliantly choreographed, engineering marvel that combines microscopic mirrors, light, and color to bring you the best and brightest pictures possible.

How DLP Works

In general, DLP combines microscopic mirrors, a specially designed semiconductor, and a color wheel to adjust light to display the most brilliant, accurate images! Your DLP HDTV doesn’t use red, green, and blue phosphors like Plasma or Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs), which means you don’t have to worry about screen burn (fixed video images burning onto the screen permanently) or convergence (realigning the CRTs). The diagram on the left illustrates the complex system.

Thin and Light

The efficiency of DLP technology enabled our design team to create a high-performance HDTV that is about 7 inches thin and weighs approximately 125-140 pounds (depending on model).

Lamp Replacement

DLP technology uses a special lamp. Eventually, you’ll need to replace this lamp, which you can do yourself by following the replacement instructions on page 76. To order the correct lamp, you’ll need to know your TV’s model number, serial number, and lamp part number. The TV’s model number is located under the front panel piece towards the bottom left corner. Go to page 10 for information on removing the front panel piece. The serial and lamp part numbers are listed on the Service Model Number sticker. The sticker is located on the lamp handle (see page 78). For future reference, write down the information in the space provided at the left.
