The S-VIDEO INPUT terminal uses a video signal system in which the picture is separated into a color and a luminance signal to realize a higher-quality image. When cables are connected to both the S-VIDEO INPUT 4 or 5 and VIDEO INPUT 4 or 5 terminals, images input through the S-VIDEO INPUT 4 or 5 terminal have priority over images input through the VIDEO INPUT 4 or 5 terminal. • For higher quality video, you may use the S-VIDEO INPUT terminal on the projector. Svideo cable is sold separately. • If your video equipment does not have an S-video output terminal, use a composite video cable.

TEMP LAMP2 2 LAMP1 POWER 1 Press POWER ON. POWER buttons • The flashing green LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator shows that the lamp is warming up. Wait until the indicator stops flashing before operating the projector. • If the power is turned off and then immediately turned on again, it may take a short while before the lamp turns on. 1.2.3 TEMP LAMP2 2 4.5.6 LAMP1 POWER 1 Conference Series • After the projector is unpacked and turned on for the first time, a slight odor may be emitted from the exhaust vent. This odor will soon disappear with use. When the power is on, the LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator lights, indicating the status of the lamp. Green: Lamp is ready. Flashing green: Warming up. Red: Change the lamp. • When setting the lamp mode to “Lamp 1 only” or “Lamp 2 only”, only the LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator corresponding to the lamp set is lit. Press POWER OFF. Press POWER OFF again while the message is displayed. • If you accidentally pressed POWER OFF and do not want to turn off the power, wait until the power off screen disappears. • When POWER OFF is pressed twice, the POWER indicator will light up red and the cooling fan will run for about 90 seconds. The projector will then enter standby mode. • Wait until the cooling fan stops before disconnecting the power cord. • The power can be turned on again by pressing POWER ON. When the power is turned on, the POWER indicator and the LAMP REPLACEMENT indicators light green. • The POWER indicator flashes if the front filter is not securely installed. E-19 Setting Up the Screen Using the Adjustment Feet Using the Adjustment Feet Setup & Connections Rotate feet to adjust height of the projector. Up Down • The projector is adjustable up to approximately 5° from the standard position. • When the height of the projector is adjusted, the image may become distorted (keystoned), depending on the relative positions of the projector and the screen. CAUTION • Do not hold the lens when lifting or lowering the projector. • When lowering the projector, be careful not to get your fingers caught in the area between the adjustment feet and the projector. E-20 Adjusting the Projection Distance Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level to achieve an optimal image. Move the projector forward or backward if the edges of the image are distorted. Setup & Connections • The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. If the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing difficult. • Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly onto the screen washes out colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room. • A polarizing screen cannot be used with this projector. Six optional lenses from Sharp are also available for specialized application. Please see your local Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer to details on all the lenses. (Refer to the lens operation manual when attaching a lens.) Be sure to have service personnel install optional lenses.
