Basic Operation

What is PIN code?

PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is a security code that allows the person who knows it to operate the projector. Setting a PIN code prevents unauthorized use of the projector.

A PIN code consists of a four-digit number. Refer to the PIN code lock function in the Setting Menu on pages 61-62 for locking operation of the projector with your PIN code.

CAUTION ON HANDLING PIN CODE

If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no longer be started. Take a special care in setting a new PIN code; write down the number in a column on page 87 of this manual and keep it on hand. Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult your dealer or service center.

Turning Off the Projector

1Press the ON/STAND-BY button on the side control or the STAND-BY button on the remote control, and after the countdown is over, Power off? appears on the screen.

2Press the ON/STAND-BY button on the side control or the STAND-BY button on the remote control again to turn off the projector. The LAMP indicator lights bright and the POWER indicator turns off. After the projector is turned off, the cooling fans operate for 90 seconds. You cannot turn on the projector during this cooling down period.

3When the projector has cooled down enough, the POWER indicator lights green and then you can turn on the projector. To unplug the AC power cord, wait until the projector is completely cooled down.

TO MAINTAIN THE LIFE OF THE LAMP, ONCE YOU TURN THE PROJECTOR ON, WAIT AT LEAST FIVE MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT OFF.

DO NOT OPERATE THE PROJECTOR CONTINUOUSLY WITHOUT REST. CONTINUOUS USE MAY RESULT IN SHORTENING THE LAMP LIFE. TURN OFF THE PROJECTOR AND LET STAND FOR ABOUT AN HOUR IN EVERY 24 HOURS.

Direct OFF Function

You can disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet or turn off the breaker even during projection without pressing the ON/STAND-BY button.

Note:

When using the Direct OFF function, you can not

restart the projector immediately after the power is disconnected. If the external power supply is suddenly cut off, the fan stops immediately. The lamp remains high temperature and needs to be cooled.

Power off? disappears after 4 seconds.

Note:

If the ON button on the remote control is pressed, the time countdown will be brought to an end without appearing Power off? afterwards on the screen.

Note:

•When the Direct On function is set to On, the projector will be turned on automatically by connecting the AC power cord to an AC outlet (p.60).

•The running speed of cooling fans is changed according to the temperature inside the projector.

•Do not put the projector in a case before the projector is cooled enough.

•If the WARNING TEMP. indicator blinks red, see “Warning Indicators” on page 72.

•The projector cannot be turned on during the cooling period with the POWER indicator turned off. You can turn it on again after the POWER indicator becomes green again.
