Running a video test on the projector
This section will enable you to set the volume controls on the amplifiers and the focus controls on
the projector, so that when the audience has arrived, the equipment is already set up.
[a] Push the mains switch on the video projector and press the STANDBY/ON button on the
remote or STANDBY/ON button on top of the projector.
[b] Adjust the 'FOCUS' of the lens on the projector by turning the ring of the lens. Adjust the front
feet of the projector by pressing the button on each side of the projector - lift the projector at the
same time and release the button.
[c] Push the videotape into the video recorder and press 'VIDEO' on the remote control or INPUT
on the projector. When the picture appears on the screen and thus sound should be available, go
to the separate amplifier and turn the volume control to give the sound volume required. [Note
that when the room is full of people, their clothing will absorb some of the sound volume]. Further
adjustment can be made using the remote. The sound can be switched off by pressing MUTE on
the remote control.
[d] BLANK button on the remote can blank the picture. This is very useful when using Song
Management Software to blank the screen in between songs. To change the blank screen from
blue to black use MENU, then image, and then blank.
[e] FREEZE on the remote can hold a screen image on 'PowerPoint' whilst making changes or
when using Song Management Software.
[f] The menu of the projector can be operated on the projector or remote control.
Using a computer
[a] Always make connections between the computer and the projector when they are switched off.
To use a laptop connect the computer to the projector using the supplied cable, or, if a PC,
disconnect the monitor cable from the computer and connect the computer to the projector using
the supplied cable. We can supply a radio mouse which is none directional and easier to use than
infrared ones.
Shutting-down procedure
When you have finished using the projector, press twice STANDBY/ON on the projector or
STANDBY/ON on the remote. When the fan has stopped, unplug the projector. To extend the life
of the bulb try not to unplug the projector less than five minutes after using it. If the projector is
accidentally switched off at the mains wait a minute before switching it on again. Replace the lens
cap in its position.
Clean the air filter every 100 hours or three months by using a vacuum cleaner. The number of
hours can be seen by going to the options part of the menu via the advanced menu. When 100
hours has been exceeded, two red lights flash on the projector and then eventually a message
comes up on the screen. Use a vacuum cleaner on the outside of the filter. Then using the
menu, go to options, filter, and press and hold the right menu arrow button on the projector or the
remote control to bring up a further menu to reset the number of hours. This method is also used
to reset the hours of the bulb after it has been changed.
The Welcome Screen & Lock
There is a choice of three options for the default image to be shown when the projector is turned
on. Menu, advanced, screen, start up. One of these enables you to have the image of your
choice. Some people like to display the name of the church or organisation perhaps with a
telephone number. To enter your own image, follow the Menu through Advance, Screen, My
Screen, Execute. (We create a song on SongPro called projector start up screen or PowerPoint
could be used). When the image has been recorded, removing the input cable will confirm the
new image as the default.
