With the addition of a cable (supplied) and with proper internal jumper settings, the
IR remote converts into a wired remote keypad which connects to the 3-pin XLR jack
via a 100 ft. cable. The wired remote is recommended when:
•
the rear built-in keypad is inaccessible
•
the lighting conditions are unsuitable for proper IR transmission
Change the jumper settings to "Wired" (see Section 2.14). Upon plug-in to the
projector, enable the "Wired Keypad" checkbox in the Communications menu.
NOTE: A smaller "lite" wired remote is available as an option. It has only one
protocol, thus needs no change in jumper settings, and connects via RCA connector
to the input panel on the side of the projector. Commands from this keypad have
priority if the standard remote is also connected (to the rear of the projector). Leave
the batteries in if you want its "laser" key to work.

Keep in mind the following guidelines:
1)
Press keys one-at-a-time; there are no simultaneous key combinations required.
2)
To protect against accidental use, three keys—Power, Shutter and OSD—are
"press-and-hold" keys that do not function with a typical quick press-and-release
keypress.
3)
Hold arrow keys down for continuous adjustment/movement in one direction. In
serial networks, pause briefly between adjustments to ensure that more distant
projectors can "keep up" with the commands.
4)
If you press a key while the projector is still responding to the previous action,
such as during power-up, the second key press may not take effect.

NOTES: 1) After powering down, the lamp cooling fan remains on for approximately
10 minutes to cool the lamp. 2) It is a good idea to avoid turning a projector back on
until it has been off for 2-3 minutes. Hot re-strikes of the lamp may reduce lamp life.

Press Auto (a.k.a. "Auto Setup") to initiate an automated process in which the
projector optimizes critical display parameters such as size, position, pixel tracking,
etc., for the current source. These parameters are listed in Table 3.1. An Auto Setup
