The procedure for connecting a
computer to the KODAK DP1050
ULTRA is the same for all types
of computers.
1.Make sure the computer, monitor and KODAK
DP1050 ULTRAare switched off.
2.Identify the RGB out connector on the back of your
computer (where you connect a monitor to the
computer).

ULTRAusing the EVC cable and the adapter for
the computer you are using. See figures 3 and 4.
4.If you have a desktop computer and want to display
the image on your computer monitor, connect the
cable from your monitor to the adapter.
See figure 5 and 6.
5.If you want to use the remote control to control your
computer, connect the correct mouse cable from
the computer to the adapter box. See figures 7 and
8. When your computer is connected to the KODAK
DP1050 ULTRAwith the EVC cable (with EVC con-
nector on the computer), the remote mouse control

is not found first time, press again. The video format is
stored separately for each connector.
1. Make sure that the video source and the
KODAK DP1050 ULTRA are switched off.

4.1 Using external speakers
In order to use external speakers with the KODAK
DP1050 ULTRA you need an amplifier. Connect the
amplifier to the audio out on the KODAK DP1050
ULTRA.
When external speakers are connected, these can be
turned on or off from the KODAK DP1050 ULTRA. To
control the internal speakers, see section on Adjust
audio settings, section 7.3.3.

A TV-tuner is optional for the
KODAK DP1050 ULTRA
NOTE! RequiresTV tuner to be installed.
In order to use the KODAK DP1050 ULTRA as a TV
output; connect the TV antenna to the TV connector on
the KODAK DP1050 ULTRA plug panel.
The KODAK DP1050 ULTRA behaves just like a
normal TV. See the menus section 7.2.6 on how to
adjust the TV settings.
There are basically three ways of receiving the TV
signals to the KODAK DP1050 ULTRA:
◆Antenna (Terrestrial)
◆Cable
◆Set-up box for satellite
These three work differently and it is important to
consider the options of each when adjusting the
KODAK DP1050 ULTRA settings.
Antenna
When you adjust your TV to signals from an antenna
you must store each channel in a different program. .
The same is true for the KODAK DP1050 ULTRA TV-
tuner. When connected to an antenna you assign the
different channels to the programs in the Television
Setup Menu. Then you use the Up and Down arrows
in the menu, remote control or the channel up/down
button on the control panel to switch between channels.
5. Connecting a TV- source to the
KODAK DP1050 ULTRA
Figure 11: Connecting to TV- source
1332 (ELEK). KODAK ENG 15.07.98 13:33 Side 12

Contents

Cable
When you are connected to a cable system you have
two options. If you have a cable decoder you set your
TV to the channel for the cable, and then you use the
remote control for the decoder to switch between
channels. If you do not have a decoder you simply set
your TV up just like you would with an antenna. This is
also the same with the KODAK DP1050 ULTRA. You
must scroll the channel name in the TV Setup menu
until you find the correct channel for your cable system.
When this channel has been assigned to one of the
program numbers you simply select this program and
use the remote control or control panel to switch
between channels.
Satellite
This works like the cable decoder meaning that you
select the channel that reads the signals from the
satellite dish. Then you use the remote control of the
decoder to switch between channels.

6.2 KODAK Remote control
The KODAK Remote control has two purposes:
1. To access the Main Menu and control the various
image adjustments and utility functions of the
KODAK DP1050 ULTRA
2. To allow remote control of your computer
Pointing it towards the projection screen operates the
remote control. An infra red beam bounces from the
screen to an infrared receiver on the KODAK DP1050
ULTRA.
NOTE!
Make sure nothing is blocking the IR receiver in
front of projector located beside the lens, as this
will prevent the communication between the remote
control and the KODAK DP1050 ULTRA.
To ensure smooth operation, the combined dis-
tance from the remote control to the screen and
back to the projector should not exceed 10 meters
(33 ft). If the distance via the screen is longer, you
should point the remote control directly towards
the IR receiver.
The remote control works with Macintosh and with
Microsoft Windows, for interactive distance control of
your computer. A unique pressure-sensing pad on the
remote makes it very easy to control the computer and
to perform the exact same operations as you would
with a normal mouse.

The Remote control is very easy to operate. It has only
six keys in addition to the pressure sensing mouse pad.
The six keys are:
Key underneath the control
Left mouse key
Small gray key
Interrupt/break an action (right mouse key)
Menu
The menu key gives access to the KODAK menu con-
trol functions. To move within the various menu func-
tions, position the arrow cursor by pressing the sensi-
tive mouse pad and click with the left mouse button
which is located underneath the remote control.
If you are in menu mode and press the menu key you
will return to normal mode
Zap
The two zap keys can be programmed to perform an
assigned function. To assign a function to the zap keys,
select the Zap icon from the menu. The zap keys can
be programmed to do the same function e.g. volume
up/down. See section 7.2.5 for further explanations of
the zap menu.
Quick
When pressing the Quick key you can switch between
all selected functions for the Quick key. See section
7.2.4 for how to select functions for the Quick key.

6.3 Using the touch panel on the
KODAK DP1050 ULTRA The touch panel gives you direct access to the most
important functions of the KODAK DP1050 ULTRA. It is

batteries, or you simply have forgotten to bring it with
you. The key functions are as follows:
