On/Off: When set to “On,” you can turn the power on without going to  
Standby mode when the AC power cord is connected to a wall outlet.  
With the projector turned off, you can also unplug the AC power cord  
without going to Standby mode, regardless of the Direct Power On  
setting.  
Notes  
*1: This may not be optimum depending on the input signal. In this case, set manually according  
to the connected equipment.  
*2: Select “Off” to avoid entering standby mode when there is no input signal.  
*3: This varies depending on the “Lamp Mode” setting.  
*4: As the lamp is dimmed gradually, you may not notice any change in brightness. You might only  
notice that the lamp has dimmed when its brightness is restored after there is a change in input  
signal.  
*5: This mode does not work for about three minutes after the lamp lights. A change in signal may  
not be detected depending on the input image. The lamp may become brighter at intervals if  
you continue to use the projector during lamp dimming. However, this is not a malfunction. If  
With No Input is set, it takes priority.  
*6: When “Standby Mode” is set to “Low,” the network and network control function cannot be  
operated while the projector is in standby mode.

Projection Distance  
The projection distance is the distance between the front of the lens and the surface of the  
projected image. The following describes the projection distance and height from the center of  
the lens to edge of screen by each projected screen size. Height H is the height from the bottom  
of the projected image (top for ceiling mount) to A (determined by drawing a perpendicular line  
from the center of the lens to projected image surface).
