Refer all repairs to qualified personnel only. Make sure that no objects enter into the vents and openings of the set. Do not spill any liquids on the projector or into the vents or openings of the unit. Always remove lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not removed, it may melt due to the high energy light emitted through the lens.

SAFETY & WARNINGS Only place the projector on a stable surface, or mount it securely using an approved ceiling-mount. Do not drop the projector. Always operate the projector horizontally, within the range of the adjustable rear feet. Operating the unit in other positions may reduce lamp life significantly, and may lead to overheating, resulting in malfunctioning.

It is very important that lamps containing mercury are treated properly to minimize potential health hazards. The UHP™ lamp, like any other high brightness projector lamp, is under high-pressure when operating. While the lamp and the projector are carefully designed to minimize the probability of lamp rupture, the lamp may break while operating and small amounts of mercury vapor may be emitted from the projector.
Remote control complies with applicable requirements of EN 60 825-1: 1994 + A11 LASER RADIATION WARNING CAUTION: Laser radiation. Do not stare into the beam. Laser diode: Wavelength 570 mm, max. output 1 mW. Class II laser product. User Guide MGP D5...

User Guide SETUP COMPUTER Before setting-up, switch off all equipment. The projector may be connected to up to three computer sources simultaneously, using the VGA and DVI inputs. The VGA interface is analog and may cause some noise in the projected image, depending on the signal quality from the VGA graphics card in the computer.
You may compensate this effect by the KEYSTONE correction control on the keypad or remote control. To get an image level with the screen, turn the rear feet (E) to the right position. User Guide MGP D5...

Activate/deactivate DPMS (Display Power Management Signalling). When DPMS is on, the projector will switch off following the powering off or disconnection of the signal source. The projector will switch back on when the signal source is reactivated. source scan Switches source scan on and off. With source scan on, the projector will search for another source if the current source is disconnected or switched off.

OSD background Select background mode, whether transparent or opaque. reset Resets the projector to its basic settings. All parameters available in the various menus are reset to their factory values. lamp reset Reset lamp after lamp change. Do not reset lamp counter unless the lamp has been replaced with an original new lamp.
RS232 Fixed baudrate Mode Selects between RS232, RIMI (internal) and LAN control modes. The projector can be controlled by only one of the modes at a time. RS232 address For use when daisy-chaining several units. Select auto or fixed address. Only one address scheme is allowed per daisy-chain.
Ensure that the PC has an operating system that supports USB (Windows™ 98 2nd edition or newer). As long as the menu system on the projector is not activated, the tracker ball on the remote control will now emulate the mouse movements.
RS 232 AND LAN CONTROL RS 232 AND LAN CONTROL RS 232 You may control and monitor the projector remotely through the serial RS232 control interface. The RS232 protocol is a binary protocol where each command is a series of 32 bytes in one packet. The protocol allows for both SET and GET operations.
Source scan off: Check SOURCE SCAN in the SET UP sub menu. If setting is OFF, the projector will not search for the next active source, but will remain with the current source selected.
Source resolution is different from projectors native resolution: The projector will automatically scale and resize the input format to its native resolution. Use a different scaling factor in the PICTURE sub menu, ASPECT. You may also adjust the SHARPNESS.
Refer service and repair to qualified personnel only. The projector is using a lamp that has a limited life time. Please refer to the LAMP CHANGE section below for further details. Only the exterior of the unit may be cleaned. Use a damp cloth.
MAINTENANCE HEAVY DUTY AND CONTINOUS USE The projector contains moving parts (such as cooling fans) that have limited life-expectancies. When the projector has been used for 7 500 hours, and when the unit is applied to mission-critical use, it is recommended that the projector is given preventive maintenance by a qualified service person.
Change the lamp when lifetime expires. Always replace lamp with the same type and rating. Always disconnect the power cord and wait until the projector has cooled down (60 minutes) before opening the lamp cover (B). Release the screw (A).
