Important:
1. Avoid using the projector with bright fluorescent lighting turned on. Certain high-frequency fluo-
rescent lights can disrupt remote control operation.
2. Be sure nothing obstructs the path between the remote control and the projector. If the path be-
tween remote control and the projector is obstructed, you can bounce the signal off certain
reflective surfaces such as projector screens.
3. The buttons and keys on the projector have the same functions as the corresponding buttons on
the remote control. This user’s manual describes the functions based on the remote control.

Note:
The remote control can only interface with a computer for PC mouse function when connected to
the computer through a USB cable connection.
Remote Control Operating Range
The remote control uses infrared transmission to control the projector. It is not necessary to point the
remote directly at the projector. Provided you are not holding the remote perpendicular to the sides or
the rear of the projector, the remote will function well within a radius of about 10 meters (33 feet) and
30 degrees above or below the projector level. If the projector does not respond to the remote control,
move a little closer.
Projector and Remote Control Buttons
The projector can be operated using the remote control or the buttons on the top of the projector. All
operations can be carried out with the remote control; however the buttons on the projector are lim-
ited in use.

The connectors you choose on the projector may depend on available corresponding connectors on
the devices you are connecting to.
Connect a computer to the projector through one of the Input Data 1/2/3 connections. The order for a
better signal is as follows:
1. Input Data 1 is a digital signal and offers the best connection to your computer.
2. Input Data 3 is an analog signal; use a DB15-to-5BNC cable for the connection.
3. The Input Data 2 analog signal uses a standard RGB (DB15-DB15) computer cable.
Connect a video device to the projector through one of the Input Video 1/2/3/4 connections. The order
for a better signal is as follows:
1. Input Video 1 is a digital signal and offers the best connection to your video device.
2. Input Video 4 uses a component cable (3 RCA connectors; red/green/blue) for the most supe-
rior analog connection.
3. Input Video 3 uses an S-video cable. S-video provides a sharper image than composite video.
4. Input Video 2 uses a composite video (yellow RCA connector) connection.
Warning:
As a safety precaution, disconnect all power to the projector and connecting devices before making
connections.
