Remote Control Information

You can operate the ELP-3500 by remote control via an infrared (IR) receiver at the front of the projector. The projector may not respond to remote control commands under the following conditions:

Ambient light is too bright.

Certain types of fluorescent lighting are used.

A strong light source shines into the IR receiver.

Other equipment that emits infrared energy, such as a radiant room heater, is in the room.

These conditions commonly cause problems for most infrared-controlled equipment. Try the following solutions:

The remote control unit’s batteries may be low on power; replace them.

Dim the ambient lighting and/or turn off any fluorescent lights.

Close any window coverings and/or move the projector out of direct sunlight.

Turn off other equipment that emits infrared energy.

If the remote control still does not work properly, remember you can always control your computer-based presentation directly from the computer, even in an environment containing one of the conditions listed above.
