CAUTION
Health warning
Health precautions may be described in the 3D video software (Blu-ray player, game, computer video le, etc.)
and instruction manual attached to the 3Dglasses, so be sure to check these before watching.
To avoid adverse health effects, please note the following:
• Do not use 3D glasses for any purpose other than viewing 3D images.
• View at a distance of at least 2 m away from the screen. Viewing at a close distance to the screen increases eye
fatigue.
• Do not view continuously for a long period of time. After viewing for 1 hour, take a rest for 15 minutes or more.
• Consult your doctor before viewing if you or your family members have had light-sensitive seizures before.
• If you experience any abnormalities in your body (such as nausea, dizziness, irritation, headache, eye pain,
blurred vision, cramping of limbs, numbness, etc.) while watching, stop watching immediately and take a rest. If
the problem persists after a while, consult your doctor.
• View 3D images from the front of the screen. Viewing 3D images from an angle may cause fatigue or eye strain.
NOTE:
• When using a 3D emitter, connect the BNC terminal of the 3D emitter to the 3D SYNC of the projector.
• The 3D glasses receive the synchronization signal output from the 3D emitter, allowing you to view the image in three dimensions.
3D glasses in the DLP® Link format receive the synchronization signal included in the 3D video signal that is reflected on the
screen, allowing you to view the video in three dimensions.
Therefore, depending on the surrounding brightness, screen size, viewing distance, etc., it may be difficult to view the 3D image.
• Check the operating conditions described in the instruction manual of the Blu-ray player.
• When playing 3D video software on a computer, it may be difficult to view the 3D video if the computer CPU or graphics chip per-
formance is low. Check the computer operating conditions described in the instruction manual attached to the 3D video software.
• Depending on the 3D input signal, the projector may not automatically switch to 3D video.

• The [DICOM SIM.] setting on the projector is used to adjust the image to an image that approximates the DICOM
standard and thus the image may not be projected correctly. For this reason, use the [DICOM SIM.] setting only for
educational purposes and not for actual diagnosis.
• The DICOM in [DICOM SIM.] is the name of the global standard used for storing and communicating medical im-
ages. It is used in computer tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), endoscopes and other medical

4-6-7. LIGHT MODE
Adjust the light source output of the projector.
NORMAL Brightness changes to 100% and the screen becomes bright.
ECO The brightness becomes about 80% of the brightness in the [NORMAL] mode.
The operating noise and power consumption will also decrease due to control of the cooling fan ac-
cording to the brightness.
TIP:
• You can check the light hours used from [INFO.] → [LIGHT HOURS USED] in the on-screen menu. (→ page 70)
• If there is no input signal (blue, black or logo display) for about 30 seconds, the mode automatically switches to [ECO]. After this,
when the projector detects an input signal, the [ECO] mode returns to the previously set mode.
• The projector is equipped with a function to detect the pressure and temperature and control the output.
When used in a location where the altitude or temperature is high, the brightness decreases regardless of the [LIGHT MODE]
setting. This mode is called the “Forced ECO MODE”.
When “Forced ECO MODE” is selected, the screen becomes slightly darker, and the LIGHT indicator and TEMP. indicator lights
up in orange.

• The law requires that the lens hood be mounted when using the NP49ZL lens unit in the USA or China. Be sure
to ask your dealer to mount the lens hood (model NP01LH).
TIP:
• Calculation of the throw distance from the screen size
NP45ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 0.9 to H × 1.2 : 40"/1.0 m (min.) to 307"/7.8 m (max.)
NP46ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 1.2 to H × 1.6 : 52"/1.3 m (min.) to 397"/10.1 m (max.)
NP47ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 1.5 to H × 2.0 : 63"/1.6 m (min.) to 507"/12.9 m (max.)
NP48ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 2.0 to H × 4.0 : 87"/2.2 m (min.) to 1015"/25.8 m (max.)
NP49ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 4.0 to H × 7.0 : 170"/4.3 m (min.) to 1779"/45.2 m (max.)
“H” (Horizontal) refers to the screen width.
* Figures differ by several % with the table above because the calculation is approximate.
Ex.: Throw distance when projecting on a 100" screen using the NP47ZL lens:
According to the “Screen Size (for reference)” table (→ page 76), H (screen width) = 84.8"/215.4 cm (approx. 2.15 m).
The throw distance is 84.8"/2.15 m × 1.5 to 84.8"/2.15 m × 2.0 = 127"/3.2 m to 170"/4.3 m (because of the zoom lens).

Screen Trigger (Stereo mini)
When the projector is powered ON the screen trigger output sends a low voltage trigger to the screen controller and
the screen will go down. When the projector is powered OFF the screen trigger stops sending a low voltage trigger
to the screen controller and the screen will go up.
NOTE:
• To use this feature, you must turn on the [TRIGGER-1/2] function. See “TRIGGER-1/2” on page 69 for more information.
Stereo mini cable
(not supplied)
Tip (12 V)
Ring (0 V)
Sleave (ground 0 V)
NOTE:
• Screen controllers are supplied and supported by screen manufacturers.
NOTE:
• Do not use these terminals for anything other than intended use. Connecting the wired remote control to the TRIGGER 1/2 terminals
causes damage to the remote control.
87
7. Appendix
7-6. Troubleshooting
This section helps you resolve problems you may encounter while setting up or using the projector.
Problem Check These Items
Does not turn on or
shut down
• Check that the power cord is plugged in and that the power button on the projector cabinet or the remote
control is on. (→ pages 13, 15)
• Check to see if the projector has overheated. If there is insufficient ventilation around the projector or if the
room where you are presenting is particularly warm, move the projector to a cooler location.
• The light module may fail to light. Wait a full minute and then turn on the power again.
• In case it’s hard to think the trouble is not caused on the above mentioned conditions, unplug the power
cord from the outlet. Then wait 5 minutes before plugging it in again.
Will turn off
• Ensure that the [AUTO POWER OFF] is off. (→ page 64)
No picture
• Check if the appropriate input is selected. (→ page 18) If there is still no picture, press the INPUT button
on the projector cabinet or one of the source buttons on the remote control again.
• Ensure your cables are connected properly.
• Use menus to adjust the brightness and contrast. (→ page 54)
• Check that the SHUTTER (lens shutter) button is not pressed.
• Reset the settings or adjustments to factory preset levels using the [RESET ALL] in the Menu. (→ page 70)
• If the HDMI 1 IN/HDMI 2 IN or the DisplayPort IN signal cannot be displayed, try the following.
- Reinstall your driver for the video card built in your computer, or use the updated driver.
For reinstalling or updating your driver, refer to the user guide accompanied with your computer or video
card, or contact the support center for your computer manufacturer.
Install the updated driver or OS on your own responsibility.
We are not liable for any trouble and failure caused by this installation.
• Signals may not be supported depending on the HDBaseT transmission device. IR and RS232C cannot be
used in certain cases as well.
• Be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning
on the power to the notebook PC.
In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector
before being powered up.
* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer’s screen-
saver or power management software.
• See also the page 88.
Picture suddenly
becomes dark
• Check if the projector is in the “Forced ECO MODE” because of too high ambient temperature.
Color tone or hue is
unusual
• Adjust [HUE] in [PICTURE]. (→ page 54)
Image isn’t square to
the screen
• Reposition the projector to improve its angle to the screen. (→ page 20)
• Use the Keystone correction function to correct the trapezoid distortion. (→ page 34)
Picture is blurred
• Adjust the focus. (→ page 24, 25)
• Reposition the projector to improve its angle to the screen. (→ page 20)
• Ensure that the distance between the projector and screen is within the adjustment range of the lens.
(→ page 74)
• Has the lens been shifted by an amount exceeding the guaranteed range? (→ page 77)
• Condensation may form on the lens if the projector is cold, brought into a warm place and is then turned
on. Should this happen, let the projector stand until there is no condensation on the lens.
Remote control does
not work
• Install new batteries. (→ page 10)
• Make sure there are no obstacles between you and the projector.
• Stand within 22 feet (7 m) of the projector. (→ page 11)
Indicator is lit or
blinking
• See the POWER/STATUS/LIGHT/TEMP. Indicator. (→ page 89)
For more information contact your dealer.

7. Appendix
If there is no picture, or the picture is not displayed correctly.
• Power on process for the projector and the PC.
Be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning on
the power to the notebook PC.
In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before
being powered up.
NOTE:
• You can check the horizontal frequency of the current signal in the projector’s menu under Information. If it reads “0kHz”,
this means there is no signal being output from the computer. (→ page 70 or go to next step)
• Enabling the computer’s external display.
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display. Usu-
ally, the combination of the “Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on
or off. For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through
external display selections.
• Non-standard signal output from the computer
If the output signal from a notebook PC is not an industry standard, the projected image may not be displayed
correctly. Should this happen, deactivate the notebook PC’s LCD screen when the projector display is in use. Each
notebook PC has a different way of deactivate/reactivate the local LCD screens as described in the previous step.
Refer to your computer’s documentation for detailed information.
• Image displayed is incorrect when using a Mac
When using a Mac with the projector, set the DIPswitch of the Mac adapter (not supplied with the projector) ac-
cording to your resolution. After setting, restart your Mac for the changes to take affect.
For setting display modes other than those supported by your Mac and the projector, changing the DIP switch on
a Mac adapter may bounce an image slightly or may display nothing. Should this happen, set the DIP switch to
the 13" xed mode and then restart your Mac. After that, restore the DIP switches to a displayable mode and then
restart the Mac again.
NOTE:
• A Video Adapter cable manufactured by Apple Computer is needed for a MacBook which does not have a mini D-Sub 15-pin
terminal.
• Mirroring on a MacBook
* When using the projector with a MacBook, output may not be set to the display resolution of the unit unless
“mirroring” is off on your MacBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Mac computer for mirroring.
• Folders or icons are hidden on the Mac screen
Folders or icons may not be seen on the screen. Should this happen, select [View] → [Arrange] from the Apple
menu and arrange icons.

In this case, please take the below measures:
- Pull out the power plug from the wall inlet.
- Place the projector in cool place if it has been placed in high ambient temperature.
- Clean the exhaust vent if dust has accumulated on.
- Leave the projector for about one hour until inside temperature gets lower.
