NOTE: Always use the power cord that shipped with the projector.

NOTE: With some computers, the order in which you power up the equipment is very important. Most computers should be turned on last, after all other peripherals have been turned on. Refer to your

computer’s documentation to determine the correct order.

Powering up the Projector and Adjusting the Image

1Remove the lens cap.

2Plug the power cord into the side of the projector, then plug it into your electrical outlet. A surge-protected power strip is recommended.

3Turn on the projector by pressing the “I” side of the power switch (see Figure 2 on page 4).

The startup screen displays and the Power LED on top of the projector lights up (Figure 16 on page 22).

4If you connected a video player, turn it on.

The video image should display on the projection screen. If a computer source is active, press the source button on the keypad (page 22) or the video button on the remote to dis- play your video image. You can select a default source to determine which source the projector examines first during power-up for active video; see “Default Source” on page 31.

Use the volume buttons to adjust the volume.

5Turn on your computer.

The computer image should display on the projection screen. (If a video source is active, press the source button on the keypad (page 22) or the computer button on the remote to display your computer’s image.)

If necessary, make adjustments to the image from the pro- jector’s on-screen menus. To open the menus, press the menu button on the keypad or remote, then select the Dis- play or Image sub-menu. For more information about the menus, see page 24.
