Chapter 3 Basic Operations — Switching on/off the projector
Note
f While the power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> lights orange, the fan is running to cool the projector.
f For approximately five seconds after the projector is turned off, the indicator does not light up even if the power is turned on. Turn on the
power again after the power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> lights/blinks red.
f The projector consumes power even in standby mode (power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> lights/blinks red). Refer to "Standby mode
power consumption" (x page 266) for the power consumption.
f When the projector receives the signal from the remote control, the power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> will blink in the following color
according to the status of the projector.
g When the projector is in projection mode: Green
g When the projector is in standby mode: Orange
However, if the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [STANDBY MODE] is set to [ECO], the indicator will stay lit red and will not blink if the
projector is in standby mode.
f The power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> will blink green slowly while the shutter function is in use (shutter: closed), or while the no
signal lights-out function (x page 134, 137) is working and the light source is turned off.
Switching on the projector
Attach the projection lens before switching on the projector.
Remove the lens cover first.
3)
1)
Connect the power cord to the projector.
2)
Connect the power plug to an outlet.
3)
Press the <ON> side of the <MAIN POWER> switch to turn on the power.
f The power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> lights/blinks red, and the projector enters the standby mode.
4)
Press the <POWER ON> button.
f The power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> lights green and the image is soon projected on the screen.
Attention
f Always remove the lens cover before starting the projection. Projecting continuously while the lens cover is attached may cause the lens
cover to heat up and result in a fire.
Note
f It will take longer to start the projection when the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [STANDBY MODE] is set to [ECO] compared to the time
when it is set to [NORMAL].
f Projection will start in approximately one second when the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [QUICK STARTUP] is set to [ON] and if the
power is turned on within a specified time after going into the standby mode.
The specified time is the time set in the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [QUICK STARTUP] → [VALID PERIOD].
f When the power is turned on or an input signal is switched, you may hear a high-frequency driving sound. This is not a malfunction.
f If the power was turned off during projection at the previous use by setting the <MAIN POWER> switch to <OFF> or by using the breaker
directly while projecting, the power indicator <ON (G)/STANDBY (R)> lights green and an image is projected after a while when the power
is turned on by setting the <MAIN POWER> switch to <ON> or by turning the breaker on with the power plug connected to the outlet. This
applies only when the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [INITIAL STARTUP] is set to [LAST MEMORY].
