- If the projector is not used for long periods of time or
duringstorms, unplug theprojector temporarily fromthe
mains to avoid damaging the projector caused by
lightning or temporary overcurrents.
- Do not stand the projector on unstable surfaces as it
could drop causing serious damage.
- The projector has slots for ventilating the internal
components - do not cover or block them.
- The projector should always be put on a solid, firm
surface.
- The projector should not be made part of a fitted
installationor closedunless thereis sufficientventilation.
- After technical assistance or repairs on the projector
have been completed, ask the technician to carry out a
safety check (all cables and components in the right
position) and to make sure the projector is in proper
operating conditions.
2.2 Power cabling
Theprojector’s mainspower deviceis shownin thepicture
Fig. 2 .
The projector operates at the following mains values:
120-240Vac 50/60Hz 500W 4.2A RMS-MAX, as
specified on the rear label.
The type of fuse used is a 10A, type T (delay).H (High
breaking capacity)
Warning
The projector must be earthed.
If the power socket is not equipped with an earth pin, call
your electrician who will install it and ensure its efficiency.
To disconnect the cable pull it out with the plug. Do not
pull the cable itself.
If you use an extension lead, make sure its rating is over
5A and is equipped with an earth wire.

2.3 Servicing
Servicingmust be carried out byqualified technicians.
Do not attempt to service the projector without the proper
technical knowledge. Opening the projector can expose
personnel to potential hazards: high voltage and electric
shock.
Unplug the mains cable and call for qualified service
technicians in the following cases:
- when the power cable or plug is damaged
- when liquids, like rain or water, have got inside the
projector
- when the projector is not working properly regardless
of the fact the instructions for use have been followed
correctly
- when the projector has fallen and/or its casing is
damaged (broken)
- whenthere arenoticeable variationsin performancethat
cannot be corrected with the normal user controls.
Note: Modify only those parameters shown in the user’s
sectionof theinstruction manual.Ifparameters orcontrols
are modified that are not shown in the manual a
realignmentof the projectormight becomenecessary and
qualified service personnel might have to be called in.
2.4 Spare parts
Use only original SIM2 Multimedia spare parts
Using components different from the original spare parts
could lead to:
- a deterioration in performance
- fire
- electric shock
- electrical damage
- other
2.5 Cleaning the projector
When we speak about projector cleaning we mean the
outside of it. NO internal cleaning is necessary.
- Beforeyoustart cleaning the projectortakethe plug out
of the mains.
- Do not use liquid or spray detergents.
- Stubborn stains can be removed with a cloth slightly
dampened with a mild detergent solution.
- Never use strong solvents such as thinners, petrol,
acetone or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the
projector’s paint.

- Avoidtouchingthe lenseswithyour fingers,which would
leave marks. Clean them as you would any ordinary
photographic lens since they have an anti-reflection
coating (use special lens cleaning paper or special
photographic lens cloth with care).
Note:After2000 hours workingtime itis essential toclean
the outside of the lenses with a soft cloth to avoid
scratching them.
Don’t forget to cover the lenses when the projector is not
going to be used for a long time.
2.6 Cathode-ray tube phosphor
burning
One of the possible causes for burning could be when a
static image of a computer or video recorder signal is
projected for more than an hour.
The static image remains impressed on the screen even
when the signal changes.
Whenever it is necessary to visualise a static image for
morethanone hourlowerthecontrastas muchaspossible
(CONTR key).
The same problem arises when visualising an image in a
different format for a long time. The smaller picture could
remain impressed on the screen (for instance, visualising
a 16:9 image on a 4:3 screen or vice versa). In this case
we suggest reducing the contrast of the small picture as
much as possible. These measures will reduce the risk of
CRT phosphor burning. If possible, always use the same
picture size.
Read the warranty enclosed with the product and
consult your dealer or SIM2 qualified personnel.
2.7 Packing the projector
For the best protection pack the projector as it was
originally packed at the factory.
Forairfreight shippinguse metalorplastic strapsto secure
the box.
Always keep the original packing for any future necessity,
such as moving or servicing the projector.
2.8 Room lighting
To get the best quality of the projected images the room
should be reasonably dark.
2.9 Back panel
See Fig. 3
At the rear there is a panel with:
- Six buttons for total projector control
- Mains connection
- Power switch and fuse

4. Prepare and install the screen.
5. Install the projector on the floor or on the ceiling
and center the screen (see: par. 4.6, Projector
centering, page 23) , maintaining the factory
deflection settings.
6. Carry out a precise focus adjustment acting on
the lenses. (see: par. 4.8, Lens FocusAdjustment,
page 23).
7. If the installation type is the same as the factory
setting, go to step 11, otherwise continue.
8. Tilt the red and blue tubes until the three crosses
are superimposed. (see: par. 4.9, Mechanical
centering of the tubes, page 24).
9. Switch the projector off and disconnect the power
cable.
10. Correct display on the screen (see par. 4.11, page
24).
11. Put the cover on the video projector.
12. Carry out a fine adjustment of the image with the
remote control. (see: par. 5, THE RC3000 COM-
PLETE FUNCTIONS REMOTE CONTROL, page
25).
4.2 Removing the cover
4.2.1 Removing the top cover

4.2.2 Removing the front panel
Unscrew the two screws (D) on the left and right of the
front panel. Unscrew the three screws (E) on the bottom
andtake thepanel off.Theposition ofthe screwsis shown
by the arrows in Fig. 42.
The distance between the projector and the screen
(depending on screen dimensions), is shown in the
following table.
TABLE 1: FRONT PROJECTION
A = Distance between the front panel and the screen
B = Distance between the projector’s desktop line and
screen centre.
4.3.1 Installation choice
Choose one of the following possible installation
types (see: Installation types, page 32):
•
DESK TOP FRONT PROJECTION
•
DESK TOP REAR PROJECTION
•
CEILING FRONT PROJECTION
•
CEILING REAR PROJECTION
Attention:
Correct use of the spacers, as shown in the spacer
tables, is mandatory for a perfect focus uniformity.
Check that the projector is perfectly stable.
SIM 2 MULTIMEDIA S.P.A. declines all responsibility
for damages to persons or things caused by incorrect
or careless ceiling installation which must be effected
by a qualified technician.
4.3.2 Desk-top front projection
Attention:
The bottom of the projector must be parallel with the
floor. It is very important to know the correct
projection angle.

Note: For 16/9 screen formats, measure the width and
refer to the nearest width value in the table.
.
If the size of the screen diagonal is not given in the table,
dimension A( in cm) is determined as follows:
- Measure the screen diagonal and take the nearest
value from the table.
- Calculate the ratio between the table value and the
relative width.
- Multiplythe value obtained bythe actual screen width.
Example: Suppose we have a 105” screen diagonal.
100” is the nearest value in the table.
The A/Width ratio is equal to 294/203.2=1.446
A 105” screen diagonal is 213.3 wide.
So, the value of A is: 1.446x213.3=308.4 cm.

4.3.3 Desktop rear projection
Forrear projection we recommend installingthe projector
with the axis of the green lens orthogonal to the screen
plane; pay attention that the green lens be centered with
respectto the screen (see:par. 4.6, Projector Centering
page 23).
Byusing Fresnellenses forrearprojection, itis mandatory
to install the projector orthogonal to the centre of the
screen to achieve maximum brightness and a better per-
formance.
The distance between projector and screen is given in
the following table.

- If the measurement of the screen diagonal is not in
the table, Ccan be determined (in cm) as follows.
- Measure the screen diagonal and take the nearest
value from the table.
- Calculate the ratio between value Cand screen width
in the table.
- Multiply the result by the actual screen width.
Example: Suppose we have a 105” screen diagonal.
100” is the nearest value in the table.
The A/Width ratio is equal to 299/203.2=1.471
A105” screen diagonal is 213.3 wide
So, the value of A is: 1.471x213.3=313.7 cm.
Note: For 16/9 screen formats, measure the width
and refer to the nearest width value in the table.
4.3.4 Ceiling front projection
Use the ceiling assembly kit (given with the projector) to
install the projector on the ceiling and proceed as follows:
To attach the projector to a solid concrete block ceiling or
brick ceiling drill 12mm dia. holes 65mm deep.Attach on
the ceiling the big bracket included in the package using
the four concrete anchors provided together with screws
and washers, USING the outer holes on the bracket, and
tighten to 25 Nm maximum torque.
WARNING:
The installer must verify that the wall can support four
times the full load (mounting bracket, hardware and
electronics), the minimum thickness of the wall
support has to be 10 cm.
For concrete blocks and brick walls, do not drill mounting
holesintomortar joints, the distancebetweenanchor and
free edge of the support wall has to be more than 18 cm.
The bracket must be fixed very carefully.
