Cautions for ensuring the projector’s performance

•Donotinstallinplacessubjecttovibrationsorshocks.

If installed in places where the vibrations from power sources and the like are conveyed, or in

vehicles or on vessels, etc. the projector could be aected by vibrations or shocks that may dam-

age internal parts and lead to malfunction.

Install in a place not subject to vibrations or shocks.

•Donotinstallnearhighvoltagepowerlinesorpowersources.

The projector may be aected by interference if it is installed near a high voltage power line or

a power source.

•Donotinstallorstoreinsuchplacesasthosedescribedbelow.Doingsocouldleadtomalfunc-

tion.

- Places where strong magnetic elds are generated

- Places where corrosive gases are generated

•Ifintenselightlikelaserbeamsentersfromthelens,itcouldleadtomalfunction.

•Consultyourdealerbeforeusinginplaceswheremuchcigarettesmokeordustispresent.

•Whenthesamestillimageisprojectedforalongperiodoftimewithacomputer,etc.thepattern

of the image may remain on the screen after the projection is stopped, but it will disappear after

a while. This happens due to the properties of liquid crystal panels, and is not a malfunction. We

recommend using a screensaver on the computer side.

•Whenusingtheprojectorataltitudesofabout1,600m/5,200feetorhigher,besuretosetthe[FAN

MODE] to [HIGH ALTITUDE]. If not, the inside of the projector may get hot, leading to malfunction.

• Whentheprojectorisusedathighaltitudes(placeswheretheatmosphericpressureislow),it

may be necessary to replace the optical parts (light source, etc.) sooner than usual.

•Aboutmovingtheprojector

- Be sure to mount the included lens cap to protect the lens from scratches.

- Do not subject the projector to vibrations or strong shocks.

The projector could be damaged otherwise.

•Donotusethetiltfeetforpurposesotherthanadjustingtheprojector’stilt.

Improper handling, such as carrying the projector by the tilt feet or using it leaned against a wall,

could lead to malfunction.

•Donottouchthesurfaceoftheprojectionlenswithbarehands.

Fingerprints or dirt on the surface of the projection lens will be enlarged and projected on the

screen. Do not touch the surface of the projection lens.

•Donotunplugthepowercordfromtheprojectororthepoweroutletwhileprojecting.Doingso

could cause deterioration of the projector’s AC IN terminal or power plug contact. To interrupt

the AC power supply while images are being projected, use a power strip switch, a breaker, etc.

•Abouthandlingoftheremotecontrol

- The remote control will not work if the projector’s remote signal sensor or the remote control’s

signal transmitter is exposed to strong light or if there are obstacles between them that obstruct

the signals.

- Operate the remote control from within 7 meters from the projector, pointing it at the projec-

tor’s remote signal sensor.

- Do not drop the remote control or handle it improperly.

- Do not let water or other liquids get on the remote control. Should the remote control get wet,

wipe it o immediately.

- Avoid using in hot and humid places as far as possible.

- When planning not to use the remote control for long periods of time, remove both batteries.

2-6. Correcting Keystone Distortion [KEYSTONE]

When the projector is not exactly perpendicular to the screen, keystone distortion occurs. For cor-

recting this distortion, you can use the “Keystone” function, a digital technology that can adjust for

keystone-type distortion, resulting in a crisp, square image.

The following procedure explains how to use the [KEYSTONE] screen from the menu to correct

trapezoidal distortions when the projector is placed diagonally to the screen.

Before performing KEYSTONE correction

The [KEYSTONE] correction has four features, [KEYSTONE HORIZONTAL], [KEYSTONE VERTICAL],

[PINCUSHION LEFT/RIGHT], [PINCUSHION TOP/BOTTOM], and [CORNERSTONE]. If the value of

either [CORNERSTONE] or [PINCUSHION] has corrected, [KEYSTONE HORIZONTAL] and [KEYSTONE

VERTICAL] are disabled. In this case, RESET the corrected values and restart to correct distortion.

1. Press the ▼ button on the projector cabinet.

The [GEOMETRIC CORRECTION] screen will be

displayed on the screen.

Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of

proxy server and the setting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible

that items that have actually been set will not be displayed depending on the eectiveness of the

cache, and the contents set from the browser may not be reected in operation. It is recommended

that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable.

Handling of the Address for Operation via a Browser

Regarding the actual address that is entered for the address or entered to the URL column when

operation of the projector is via a browser, the host name can be used as it is when the host name

corresponding to the IP address of the projector has been registered to the domain name server

by a network administrator, or the host name corresponding to the IP address of the projector has

been set in the “HOSTS” le of the computer being used.

Example 1: When the host name of the projector has been set to “pj.nec.co.jp”, access is gained to

the network setting by specifying

http://pj.nec.co.jp/index.html

for the address or the entry column of the URL.

Example 2: When the IP address of the projector is “192.168.73.1”, access is gained to the network

setting by specifying

http://192.168.73.1/index.html

for the address or the entry column of the URL.

From the upper table on this page, to project wide images on a 150 screen, install at about 4.0 m

from the front.

Also, from the lower table we can see that about 2.1 m are required from the projector’s lens center

to the upper edge of the screen. Use this to see whether or not enough height can be provided

from the projector to the ceiling and for installing the screen. The diagram shows the projection

distance when the projector is installed horizontally. The projected image can be moved up and

down, left and right using the lens shift function. (→ page 23)

•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:

•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. Usually, the combination of the “Fn” key along with one of the 12

function keys gets the external display to come on or o. 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 dierent 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) according to your resolution. After setting, restart your Mac for the changes to take

aect.

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.

the projector unless “mirroring” is o on your MacBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with

your Mac computer for mirroring.
