1. COMPLIANCE OF SAFE REPAIR
Be sure to read this Service Manual before providing services.
In the projector, full consideration is taken to ensure the safety for fire, electric shock, injury, harmful radiation,
and substance. Therefore, observe the notice described in this Service Manual so that safety is kept when
providing services. Moreover, be sure to observe the notice described in the Instruction Manual.
Pay attention to the following during service inspection.
1-1 Cautions during disassembling and assembling
1. This equipment contains parts under high voltage. When making repairs, etc. Be sure to pull out the power
plug beforehand to insure safety.
2. Parts may be very hot immediately after use. Make sure the equipment has cooled off sufficiently before
carrying out repairs.
3. Make sure that parts and screws and wiring, etc. are returned to their original positions. Tube, tape and
other insulation materials have been used for safety reasons. The internal wiring has been designed to
avoid direct contact with hot parts or parts under high voltage when using clamps or other tools.
4. The parts used in this device have special safety features such as flame-resistance and anti-voltage
properties. When replacing parts, always use parts supplied from the factory.
5. After finishing operations make sure that all parts and wires have been returned to their original position and
that there has been no deterioration of the area around the location that was worked on.
6. Be sure to use an earth band (wrist band) during repair and inspection.
1-2 Lamp
During current conduction, the lamp is in the high-temperature state. In this case, pay careful attention
because a high voltage is used. When replacing a lamp, replace it after confirming that the lamp has cooled
sufficiently.
1-3 Lens
Do not look into the lens during projection. This damages your eyes.

3. TROUBLESHOOTING
3-1. RS-232 Protocol Command
The RS-232 Commands use only ASCII characters which can be entered using a typical
terminal emulator likeWindows HyperTerminal with the following setting:
Bits per second: 115200
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
Note that each input character will be echoed on the terminal by MCU and there is no
need to set the local echo “ON” with the terminal setting.
System Operation commands.
The Operation commands tell the projector what to do. All commands start with 2 letters:
, and a space [SP] then following a control command then
finally the value wants to read, set, increase or decrease. All commands must end with a
carriage return (ASCII hex0D), shown as [CR] below. The syntax for operations
commands is as follows:
op[SP]<operation command>[SP]<Setting Value>[CR]
Execute functions the response will be thesame command. All responses will be in
CAPS. Please refer to the following table for command list and examples:
System Operation command:
Operation
Commands
Values
Set
= <value>
Makes the unit take that value.
Get
?
Asks what the current value is.
Increment
+
Adds 1 to the currentvalue.
Decrement
-
Subtracts 1 from the current value.
Execute
(none)
Performs an action such as a reset.

Get operations command example:
Input: op bright ? [CR]
System Response: OPBRIGHT = 100
Increase & Decrease operations command examples:
Input: op bright + [CR]
System Response: OPBRIGHT = 101
Input: op bright - [CR]
Response: OPBRIGHT = 126
Set operations command example:
Input: op bright = 127 [CR]
System Response: OPBRIGHT = 127
Execute command example:
Input: op auto.img [CR]
Response: OPAUTO.IMG
