•
[General Cautions]
■ Avoid excessively hot locations.
Do not place this projector in direct
sunlight or near a hot object such as a
stove, etc., because the heat could
have adverse influence on the cabinet
and other parts.
■ Cabinet care.
The cabinet is made of plastic and discoloration
or paint peeling can occur if wiped with a solvent
such as benzine, thinner, etc.
•
Before using chemical wipes, be sure to read
and observe the instructions.
•
•
Do not spray volatile substances on the
cabinet. Also, do not allow long-term close
contact with rubber or vinyl products because
this could result in discoloration, peeling
paint, etc.
■ Sound volume.
Set the volume at a suitable level to avoid
bothering other people. It is also better to keep
the volume level low and close the windows at
night to protect the neighborhood environment.
Use a soft cloth to clean the cabinet and
operation panel. When excessively soiled,
dilute a neutral detergent in water, wet and
wring out the cloth and afterward wipe with a
dry cloth. Do not apply undiluted detergent
directly to the projector.
•
■ Lens care
Use commercially available lens
tissue to clean the lens (used to clean
cameras, eyeglasses, etc.). Be careful
not to scratch the lens with hard
objects.
■ Extended usage.
When using this projector for an extended
period, stop periodically to rest the eyes to
prevent eye fatigue.

• Before making connections, read the instruction manual of the equipment to be connected.
• Use the optional USB cable to connect.
Caution
• Effective with USB only when the mouse is used.
• Do not use with any device other than a personal computer.
• When using with Windows 95, it is necessary to set so that USB can be used with version
OSR 2.1 or higher. Depending on the kind or the version of the host controller, operation
may not be possible in some cases.
• In the case of notebook type computers with a built-in pointing device such as a track ball, in
some cases the built-in pointing device will have priority even if a mouse is connected and
the mouse may not be selected.
In such case, disable the built-in pointing device and change the BIOS setting (system setup)
so that an external mouse can be selected.
After changing the BIOS setting, perform the operations described in 1 - 3 above.
Refer to the computer hardware manual concerning the BIOS setting.
Also, some computers may not have a utility program to operate a mouse. Refer to the

The command code configuration consists of a 2-byte command and the following data.
• The first byte of a command indicates the command type with 3 bits on the MSB side and the data length
with 4 bits on the LSB side.
Projector - computer
‘0xH’ : Error code
‘1xH’ : response code
‘70H’ : frame error code
Computer - projector
‘2xH’ : inquiry code
‘3xH’ : setting code
‘4xH’ : default setting code
‘x’ indicates the data length (example: x=2 means a 2-byte command).
• The second byte of a command indicates the command contents.

Connection to the control signal terminal (continued)
Requesting projector status
(1) Send the request code ‘20H’ + ‘yyH’ from the computer to the projector.
(2) The projector returns the response code ‘1xH’ + ‘yyH’ +data to the computer.
Changing the projector settings
(1) Send the setting code ‘3xH’ + ‘yyH’ +data from the computer to the projector.
(2) The projector changes the setting based on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘1xH’ + ‘yyH’ +data to the computer.
Caution
The response data in (3) above need not match the setting data in (1).
For example, when the projector cannot set the setting data in (1), the projector may set the
closest value. That value will be used as the response data in (3). Or else the projector will
return the error code ‘0xH’ + ‘yyH’ +data.
Using the projector default settings
(1) The computer sends the default setting code ‘40H’ + ‘yyH’ to the projector.
(2) The projector changes the specified setting to the default value.
(3) The projector returns the default value with the response code ‘1xH’ + ‘yyH’ =data.
When a command sent by the projector cannot be understood by the computer
(1) The computer sends the command code ‘3xH’ , ‘4xH’ or ‘4xH’ + ‘yyH’ +data to the projector.
(2) When the command sent by the projector cannot be understood, the error command ‘00H’ + ‘yyH’ is
returned by the computer.
When data sent by the projector cannot be understood
(1) The computer sends the command code ‘3xH’ , ‘4xH’ or ‘4xH’ + ‘yyH’ +data to the projector.
(2) When the command sent by the projector cannot be understood, the error code ‘0xH’ +‘yyH’ +data is
returned.
When the data length is greater than indicated by the data length code, the projector will ignore the excess data code.
Conversely, when the data length is shorter than indicated by the data length code, an error code will be
returned to the projector.
When a frame error occurs
Repeats 10 times per second until there is some sort of response to the error code 70H + 70H.
When the interval between bytes in one command is 500ms or greater
When a command or data is not sent within 500ms after the command code ‘2xH’ , ‘3xH’ or ‘4xH’ is sent by
the computer, the error command ‘70H’ +‘70H’ will be returned as soon as the 500ms elapses. After this, if
there is no response within 1 sec., a frame error will occur.
• Operation cannot be guaranteed when the projector receives an undefined command or data.
• Provide an interval of at least 40ms between the response code and any other code.

The light source lamp has a service life.
When used for an extended time, the images may become darker and the colors may deteriorate.
A malfunction could occur if the projector is used in this condition, so replace the lamp with a new one.
