Refer to this guide for proper startup and shutdown procedures.
Only use replacement parts specified by InFocus. Unauthorized substitutions
may result in fire, electrical shock, or injury, and may void the warranty
Follow all warnings and cautions in this manual and on the projector.
Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 15 degrees off axis.
Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2m) away from any heating or cooling vents.
Only genuine InFocus lamps are tested for use in this projector. Use of non
InFocus lamps may cause electrical shock and fire, and may void the projector
warranty.

•
•
Do not place the projector in direct sunlight, humid, greasy or dusty places or
in places where the projector may come into contact with smoke or steam.
The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp may fail
prematurely, or it may rupture with a popping sound if jolted, scratched, or
handled while hot. The risk of lamp failure or rupture also increases as the
lamp age increases; please replace the lamp when you see the “Replace Lamp”
message.
Do not touch or block the projector lens with any objects as this can damage
the projector lens. Use the lens cap when the projector is not in use and during
transport. Scratches, gouges and other lens damage are not covered by the
product warranty.
•
In the unlikely event of a lamp rupture, particles may exit through the projector
vents. Keep people, food, and drinks out of the "keep out" area under and
around the projector, as indicated by the "X" areas below.
•

What is Aspect Ratio?
4:3 screen
16:9 screen
Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. Standard TV screens
and older laptops are 4:3; HDTV and most DVDs are 16:9; and widescreen
computers are 16:10. If you are projecting onto a screen, the size/shape of the
screen will influence the aspect ratio you decide to use. If you are projecting onto a
blank wall, there are no screen size restrictions. What you plan to project will also
help you choose between 4:3, 16:9 or 16:10. Many TV shows are 4:3, while most
movies are 16:9.
4:3
mode
If you have a 16:9 screen then you should select an aspect ratio of 16:9 for
widescreen movies or HDTV, and Native for 4:3 content. If you have a 4:3 screen
you should still use 16:9 for widescreen movies or HDTV, but you also have the
option of using either 4:3 (to fill the screen) or Native (for direct pixel mapping) for
4:3 content. Force Wide can also be enabled to automatically resize less common
aspect ratios to 16:10.

To take advantage of HDMI 1.3 Deep Color (30 bit) you must have a 1.3-
compatible source.
Connecting a video device
You can connect video devices such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital
cameras, video game consoles, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector.
You can connect the audio directly to the projector to get sound from the built-in
speaker, or you can bypass the projector’s audio system and connect the audio
directly from your source to a stereo or home theater system.
You can connect the projector to most video devices that can output video. You
cannot directly connect the coaxial cable that enters your house from a cable or
satellite company, the signal must pass through a tuner first. Examples of tuners are
digital cable boxes, VCRs, digital video recorders, and satellite TV boxes.
Basically, any device that can change channels is considered a tuner.
VGA connection
If your video device has a 15-pin VGA output, plug one end of the included
computer cable into the VGA connector on your video source. This connector may
be labeled “To Monitor” on the video source. Plug the computer cable into the VGA
connector on the projector.
Component video connection
If your HD video device has component connectors, an optional Component to
VGA adapter can be used. Plug the component cable into the video device. Plug the
other end of the component cable into the adapter and plug the adapter into the
VGA connector.
Before connecting your projector, you should decide which aspect ratio you want to
use. The projector’s Aspect Ratio setting is accessed through the Resize button on
information.Video device connections
No video cables are provided with the projector. You can order cables from InFocus
or provide your own.
Composite video connection
Plug the composite video cable’s yellow connector into the video-out connector on
the video device. Plug the other yellow connector into the yellow Video connector
on the projector.
Plug the white connector of a Mini-plug audio Y-cable into the left audio out
connector on the video device and plug the red connector into the right audio out
connector on the video device. Plug the other end of the cable into the Audio In
connector on the projector.
HDMI 1.3 connection
HDMI is a standard, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI
provides an interface between sources, such as set-top boxes, DVD players, and
receivers and your projector. Plug an HDMI cable into the video-out connector on
the video device and into the HDMI connector on the projector.

Troubleshooting LitePort
•
If images load slowly: Make sure you are using a newer USB 2.0-
compatible (high speed) USB flash drive. Larger image file sizes may also
slow down the player; to reduce file size, use an image editing program on
your computer to resize images smaller; for the best balance between image
quality and speed, resize images to be 1024 pixels wide.
•
•
If no images are found, or some images are not shown, or you only see folder
thumbnails but no images: Make sure that images are JPEG file type (file
extensions .JPEG and .JPG); other file types are not supported and will be
ignored.
If you see a blank screen, or a logo, or the wrong input source (computer,
video, etc.) instead of your images: Keep pressing the Source button on the
keypad or remote until the LitePort message is displayed (if you still don't see
any images, make sure the USB flash drive is correctly and completely
plugged into the projector's LitePort connector).
•
•
If nothing happens when you connect your USB flash drive, and you cannot
select the LitePort input source as described above: Check the format of your
USB storage device. LitePort only supports USB storage devices formatted as
FAT32. Devices formatted as NTFS, and non-storage devices (such as
cameras) are not supported.
If images saved by PowerPoint are low quality: Make sure to do step 3 when
following the steps in the Displaying PowerPoint Slides section above.

Maintenance
Cleaning the lens
1 Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner to a soft, dry cloth.
•
Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner, and don’t apply the cleaner
directly to the lens. Abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh chemicals
might scratch the lens.
2 Lightly wipe the cleaning cloth over the lens in a circular motion.
WARNINGS:
•
Turn the projector off and unplug power cord before cleaning any part of the
projector.
•
Do not touch or block the projector lens with any objects as this can damage
the projector lens. Use the lens cap when the projector is not in use and
during transport. Scratches, gouges and other lens damage are not covered
by the product warranty.
•
•
Do not open any cover on the projector, except the lamp cover.
Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening and removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltage and other hazards. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.

Replacing the projection lamp
The Lamp Hours timer in the Projector Info menu counts the number of hours the
lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the lamp life expires, the message
“Replace lamp” appears on the screen at startup.

NOTE: Be sure to use the InFocus lamp module designed for this projector.
retailer or your dealer. Only genuine InFocus lamps are tested for use in this
projector. Use of non InFocus lamps may cause electrical shock and fire, and
may void the projector warranty. InFocus is not liable for the performance,
safety or certification of any other lamps.
WARNINGS:
•
The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp may fail
prematurely, or it may rupture with a popping sound if jolted, scratched, or
handled while hot. The risk of lamp failure or rupture also increases as the
lamp age increases; please replace the lamp when you see the “Replace Lamp”
message.
•
To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before you
replace the lamp.
•
•
•
Unplug the power cord before replacing the lamp.
Do not drop the lamp module. The glass may shatter and cause injury.
Do not touch the glass surface of the lamp module. Fingerprints can obscure
projection sharpness and may cause the glass to shatter.
•
Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely event
that the lamp ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated. The lamp
module is designed to contain most of these fragments, but use caution when
removing it.
•
•
Before replacing a ruptured lamp, clean the lamp compartment and dispose of
cleaning materials. Wash hands after lamp replacement.
When replacing the lamp while the projector is ceiling-mounted, wear
protective eyewear to prevent eye injury.
