Utilities
Projection Utility
A utility for projecting from a computer over a network
Advanced Network Utility
This allows you to send images from a PC to more than one
projector at the same time.
JPEG Conversion Tool
Stacking Correction Tool (the name is subject to change)
This software is for technicians.
Up to four projectors can be used to simultaneously project
an image in the same location. This is done to increase
brightness. This tool needs to be installed by an expert who
has skills to mount projectors on the ceiling.
When this tool is in use, one or more of the machines might
be accidentally put out of alignment in terms of the
projecting area. In that case, visiting maintenance will be
required to set up the projectors again.
@Remote
@Remote is not available on this model.

Reliability Information
Average monthly projection time: 154 hrs/month
7.00 hrs/day x 22 working days/month
Failure Rate
1st year: 0.0013 cases/unit/month
2nd year: 0.0014 cases/unit/month
3rd year: 0.0017 cases/unit/month
The failure rate of a projector increases with its
total power-up time. This is due in part to the
failure characteristics of optical engines in
projectors.
Lamp Life
Normal Mode: 3,000 hrs
Eco Mode: 4,000 hrs

Lamp Near-end/End Alerts
There is no near-end alert.
The lamp end alert occurs when the machine calculates
that the life time has expired.
If used in Normal Mode only, the alert appears after 3,000
hrs projection time
If used in Eco Mode only, the alert appears after 4,000 hrs
projection time
If the user switches between modes, the machine
calculates when to display the alert based on how long the
lamp was used in each mode.
If the projector is used for 100 hours after the lamp has
reached the end of its life, the projector will turn off and go
into standby mode.
In this condition, the lamp hours cannot be reset using the
menu.
The user must replace the lamp, then press the Help button
on the remote control for 10 seconds to reset the lamp
clock back to zero (do this only after replacing the lamp).

Disposal of Broken Lamps
Projector lamps normally contain mercury
vapour.
These lamps can rupture due to impact or being
used longer than their life expectancy.
The time that the breakage will occur differs
widely for each lamp and its circumstances of
use.
These lamps must be disposed of in accordance
with local environmental regulations.

High Altitude Mode: The fans operate at a higher speed in this mode. Use this
when the projector’s location is more than 1500 m (5500 ft) above sea level
(otherwise, the projector could overheat and shut down automatically). If you use
Eco Mode, also use High Altitude Mode if the projector’s location is more than
1000 m (3200 ft) above sea level.
¾Also, if you use high altitude mode at less than 1500 m (5500 ft) above sea
level, the projector could become too cool, causing images to flicker. Switch
[FAN MODE] to [AUTO].
High Temperature Alert: High temperature detected inside the projector, Eco
Mode is enforced
¾If the projector overheats, it shuts down automatically. Wait a few moments
then turn back on again.
