*1 The projector uses a type of liquid crystal panel that typically consists of millions of pixels. This panel is built with very high-precision tech-
nology to provide the finest possible image. ccasionally, a few pixels may remain turned on (bright) or turned off (dark). Please note that this
is an intrinsic characteristic of the manufacturing technology that affects all products using LCD technology.
*2 The projector uses a high-voltage mercury lamp that contains high internal pressure. This lamp may break, emitting a large sound, or fail to
illuminate, due to impact or extended use. The length of time that it takes for the lamp to break or fail to illuminate varies greatly depending
on individual lamp characteristics and usage conditions.
*3 Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with IS 21118 international standards.
*4 In dynamic mode, with dynamic iris on.
*5 In cinema 1 mode, with dynamic iris on.
*6 Shift range is limited during simultaneous horizontal and vertical shifting.
*7 Effective in Rec. 709 picture mode.
*8 CEC is an abbreviation for Consumer Electronics Control. peration may not be possible with some connected equipment or settings.
*9 With legs at shortest position.
*10 Average value. May differ depending on models.
*11 peration range differs depending on environments.

Projection distance for 16:9 aspect ratio screen
N TE: The values of L shown above vary due to characteristics of the zoom lens. Images may slightly distort due to characteristics of the zoom
lens when the zoom lens is set to the minimum throw distance.
Caution:
• All construction work should be done by a qualified technician.
• When mounting to the ceiling, use the special mounting bracket. To prevent the projector from swaying or drop-
ping, attach the wire that is included with the projector between the mounting bracket and the ceiling.
N TE: The accuracy of calculated value by the formula shown above is ±5%.
Calculation of the projection distance
For a screen size different from the above, use the equation below to calculate the projection distance.
16:9 minimum L (m) = (diagonal screen size in inches) × 0.0292 - 0.054
maximum L (m) = (diagonal screen size in inches) × 0.0583 - 0.041

Command Size (Byte) Parameter
*1 P N is the only command that is effective in standby mode; all other commands are invalid. The P N command is not accepted during lamp
on control. After the lamp has been turned off and while the cooling fan is still operating, lamp on control will not be activated for about 85
seconds in order to protect the lamp.
*2 Do not send SH commands continuously in a short period of time. Doing so may burst the lamp or shorten the lamp replacement cycle.
