4To supply power to the projector, connect the power cable to the power port on the rear panel of the projector. Then connect the power cord to an appropriate power outlet. Turn on the power switch located on the rear panel of the projector, beside the power port. After approximately 30 seconds after the power is on, a solid-colored image is pro- jected onto your screen.

Note: You may detect a high-pitched sound as the color- wheel and fans are reaching operating speed. Also, as you turn on the projector, you may detect a slight, crackling, electrostatic sound as the bulb illuminates. It may take up to 10 seconds for the bulb to reach full brightness.

A keystone correction of 17 degrees is built into the projec- tor to compensate for image distortion. You may want to adjust the rear feet of the projector to position the image on the screen.

5Turn on your computer or video source. Select the desired source for display by pressing the appropriate SOURCES button on the projector control panel or remote control. Your computer or video image then appears on the projec- tion screen. The selected SOURCES button is backlit green; all other SOURCES buttons are backlit red.

Note: For information about the operation of your external computer or video sources, refer to the appropriate instruc- tion manual for the equipment in question.

6Focus the projected image with the FOCUS control either on the control panel or remote control. Adjust the image size by using the ZOOM control on the control panel or remote control. Use the projector SETUP and IMAGE menus to adjust the settings to fine-tune your projected image. (For more detailed instructions for image adjustments, see Chapter 4, Using the projector.
