Setting up the Projector
This section of the guide provides general guidelines for installing any projector (see below).
However, if you have a 2876 or a 2976, this section also includes detailed instructions on installing
an NEC VT676 projector.
After you've installed the projector and aligned its image with the center of the screen, you can
then make fine adjustments to the projected image (page 24).
Installing a Projector
The following general guidelines will help you install your projector. For specific information, see
the manufacturer's instructions supplied with your projector.
To install a projector
1. Set the computer's screen resolution to match the projector's optimal resolution.
–
For information on your projector's optimal resolution, see the instructions supplied with
your projector.
–
For information on how to change your computer's screen resolution, see the instructions
supplied with your operating system.
2. Place the projector on a projector platform or stand:
–
if you're not using a mirror, point the lens of the projector at the center of the screen.
NOTE: To help center the image on the interactive whiteboard, place the projector
squarely on its stand, perpendicular to the screen.
–
if you're using a mirror, point the lens of the projector towards the center of the mirror.
3. Connect the projector to the computer and to a power outlet by following the instructions
supplied with your projector.
4. If you're using one or two mirrors to project the correct image size onto the screen, adjust
them so that you have a square image on the screen.
5. If the image is reversed when you look at it from the front, switch the projector to rear-
projection mode. For information on how to switch to rear-projection mode, see the
instructions supplied with your projector.
Installing the VT676 Projector into the Mirror Stand (2876 and 2976
only)
You must install the VT676 projector inside the mirror stand, and then connect it to the computer.
CAUTION
99-00479-03 REV B0
Never touch the rear of the screen or brush against it. If you do smudge this
surface, lightly spray alcohol-free glass cleaner onto a soft cloth and dab the
affected area to remove the marks. Never apply isopropyl alcohol, water or
acetone, as these fluids will damage the diffusion coating and permanently reduce
the display quality.
