Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your LCD
projector and to prevent fire and shock. Please read them carefully
and heed all warnings.
Lamp Replacement
• Be sure to replace the lamp when the Status light comes on. If you
continue to use the lamp after 2000 hours of use, the lamp bulb
may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp
case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury.
If this happens, contact your NEC dealer for lamp replacement.
Installation
1. For best results, use your LCD projector in a darkened room.
2. Place the projector on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from
dust and moisture.
• Allow a minimum of ONE minute to elapse between turning the
lamp off and on. High voltage is applied to the lamp immediately
when the power is turned on. Therefore turning the power off and
quickly back on may shorten the life of your lamp and result in
damage to your LCD projector.
3. Do not place your LCD projector in direct sunlight, near heaters
or heat radiating appliances.
4. Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal
components.
Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are
unobstructed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your LCD
projector. Allow at least 10cm (3 inches) of space between your
LCD projector and a wall.
5. Handle your LCD projector carefully. Dropping or jarring can
damage internal components.
6. Do not place heavy objects on top of the LCD projector.
7. If installing the LCD projector on the ceiling:
2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from
falling into your LCD projector. Do not attempt to retrieve any
objects that might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal
objects such as a wire or screwdriver into your LCD project. If
something should fall into your projector, disconnect it immedi-
ately and have the object removed by a qualified NEC service
person.
a. The ceiling must be strong enough to support the LCD projec-
tor and the installation must be in accordance with any local
building codes.
b. The LCD projector must be installed by qualified NEC service
personnel.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of your LCD projector.
Power Supply
1. The LCD projector is designed to operate on a power supply of
100-120 or 220-240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power
supply fits this requirement before attempting to use your LCD
projector.
• Do not look into the lens while the projector is on.
Serious damage to your eyes could result.
• Do not look into the laser pointer while it is on and do
not point the laser beam at another person. Serious
injury could result.
2. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending. A
damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.
3. If the LCD projector is not to be used for an extended period of
time, disconnect the plug from the power outlet.
Cleaning
1. Unplug the LCD projector before cleaning.
2. Clean the cabinet periodically with a damp cloth. If heavily
soiled, use a mild detergent. Never use strong detergents or
solvents such as alcohol or thinner.
3. Use a blower or lens paper to clean the lens, and be careful not to
scratch or mar the lens.
4. Clean the air filter with a vacuum cleaner after every 100 hours
of operation.
a. Clean the outside of the filter with a vacuum cleaner.
b. Do not use water or any other liquid to clean the air filter.
c. Do not operate your LCD projector without the air filter.

This section describes how to set up your MultiSync
MT1020G/820G LCD projector and how to connect video
and audio sources.
Carrying handle
Setting Up Your MultiSync
MT1020G/820G LCD Projector
Your MultiSync MT1020G/820G LCD Projector is simple
to set up and use. But before you get started, you must first:
Push to release the
handle.
1. Determine the image size
2. Set up a screen or select a non-glossy white wall onto
which you can project your image.
Pull out
Carrying The LCD Projector Always carry your LCD
projector by the handle. Ensure that the power cord and
any other cables connecting to video sources are discon-
nected before moving the projector. When moving the
projector or when it is not in use, cover the lens with the
lens cap.
Selecting A Location The further your LCD projector is
from the screen or wall, the larger the image. The mini-
mum size the image can be is approximately 20" (0.5 m)
measured diagonally when the projector is roughly 1.0 m
(3 feet) from the wall or screen. The largest the image can
be is 300" (7.6 m) when the projector is about 12.2 m
(40.03 feet) from the wall or screen.

the projector and press the buttons on the front of the
projector, just above the feet, to release the one-touch tilt
feet. (There is approximately 10.5˚ of up and down ad-
justment for the front of the projector. When you need to
set the projector at 10.5° projection angle or more, use
the lift kit that is supplied.)
6. To fine tune the image's position vertically on the screen,
rotate each front foot.
7. Increase or reduce the size of the projected image by
pressing the "Zoom" (+) or (–) buttons on the remote
control or top of the cabinet.

Note: Distances may vary ±5%.
• Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your
LCD projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the
vents on the bottom or the side of the projector.
WARNING
• Only use your LCD projector on a solid, level surface. If
the projector falls to the ground, you can be injured and
the projector severely damaged.
Ceiling Installation
Installing your MultiSync MT1020G/820G LCD Projector
on the ceiling must be done by a qualified technician. Con-
tact your NEC dealer for more information.
• Do not use the LCD projector where temperatures vary
greatly. The projector must be used at temperatures be-
tween 0˚C (32˚F) and 40˚C (104˚F).
• Do not expose the LCD projector to moisture, dust, or
smoke. This will harm the screen image.
Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
• An optional ceiling mount kit MT810/1000 CMKIT
manufactured by NEC is recommended.
If your projector is mounted on the ceiling and your image is
upside down, use the “Menu” and “Select” buttons on your
projector cabinet or (▲) (▼) buttons on your remote control
to correct the orientation. (See page E-27.)
Reflecting The Image
Using a mirror to reflect your LCD projector's image en-
ables you to enjoy a much larger image. Contact your NEC
dealer if you need a mirror.
Screen
Mirror
If you're using a mirror and your image is inverted, use the
“Menu” and “Select” buttons on your projector cabinet or

For Macintosh, use the larger 15-pin connector on the cable to connect to your computer's video
port; use the smaller 15-pin connector on the cable to connect to the projector's RGB 2 input.
(You can also use your own video cable if you wish. For a PC cable, use the smaller 15-pin
connector RGB 2 on the projector. For a Macintosh cable, use the larger 15-pin connector RGB
1 on the projector.)
4. Turn on the LCD projector and the computer.
5. If the projector goes blank after a period of inactivity, it may be caused by a screen saver
installed on the computer you've connected to the projector.

Changing Video Resolutions
Windows 3.1
1. Click on the "Main" icon and open "Control Panel."
Depending on your computer's graphic capability, you may
be able to select one of several resolutions. Generally a
computer- either a PC or Macintosh- with 1 meg. of memory
will run:
2. Select "Change System Settings" and click on "Option."
3. Choose "Change Display Settings."
4. Select the resolution you want.
640 x 480 at 16.7 million colors (24 bit Truecolor)
800 x 600 at 65000 colors.
5. Choose the current drive or another.
1024 x 768 at 256 colors.
6. Restart Windows for the changes to take affect.
As the resolution increases, the number of colors you can run
decreases. With 2 meg. of memory a computer will run:
640 x 480 at 16.7 million colors (24 bit Truecolor).
800 x 600 at 16.7 million colors (24 bit Truecolor).
1024 x 768 at 65000 colors.
Macintosh
1. Under the Apple menu, select "Control Panels" and open
"Monitors."
1280 x 1024 at 256 colors.
2. Click and open "Options."
3. Select your new resolution and click "OK."
Windows 95
There are two methods you can use to change your resolution.
If you have an NEC monitor connected to your Macintosh,
you may have a "DPI-On-The-Fly" extension that enables you
to change your resolution directly. The "DPI-On-The-Fly" icon
is under your Apple menu.
Method 1
1. Move your cursor to the background image and click.
2. In the "Properties" menu, select "Settings."
3. Change your resolution and click "OK."
Notebook Computers And Resolution Standards
NEC projectors are designed to project industry standardized
video such as VESA (Video Electronics Standards
Association) or VGA (Video Graphics Array). Notebook
computers do not use industry standards. They use whatever
timing is necessary to match their local LCD display. The end
result is typically not standards. By turning off your notebook's
display, the timing parameters are a bit more like the realVESA
or VGA signal.
4. You may be asked to reboot for the changes to take affect,
or you' ll get a message that "Windows is about to resize
your display." You' ll be asked if you want to keep your
settings. Select "Yes."
Method 2
1. Click on your "My Computer" icon.
2. Open "Control Panel" and select "Display."
3. Change your resolution and click "OK." after the new
resolution is selected.
For an optimal projected image with a notebook computer, it
is recommended that you use the CUSTOM 6 memory data.
This feature is useful when an XGA image (1024
ן 768) is displaying with a notebook computer supported by SXGA
(1280
ן 1024) and when an SVGA image (800ן 600) is displayed with a notebook computer supported by XGA
(1024
ן 768). See Source Menu on page E-24 for more information.
4. You may be asked to reboot for the changes to take affect,
or you' ll get a message that "Windows is about to resize
your display." You' ll be asked if you want to keep your
settings. Select "Yes."

M A I N T E N A N C E
This section describes the simple maintenance procedures you
should follow to replace the lamp, clean or replace the filter, and
replace the batteries in the remote control.
Replacing The Lamp
After your lamp has been operating for 2000 hours or longer, the
“status” light in the cabinet will go on. Even though the lamp may
still be working, replace it at 2000 hours to maintain optimal
projector performance.
CAUTION
Step 1A
Step 1B
• DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been
used. It will be extremely hot. Allow at least one hour for the
lamp to cool before handling.
• DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS except the lamp cover
set screw and two lamp case screws. You could receive an
electric shock.
• Turn off the main power to the projector and disconnect the
power cord. Allow at least one hour for the lamp to cool.
• The projector will turn off and be in standing by after 2100
hours of service. If this happens, be sure to replace the lamp.
If you continue to use the lamp after 2000 hours of use, the
lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered
in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass
may cause injury. If this happens, contact your NEC dealer
for lamp replacement.
Step 2
Interlock
To replace the lamp:
1. Remove the single screw that secures the lamp housing cover
and remove the cover.
2. Remove the two screws securing the lamp case. (There is an
interlock on this case to prevent the risk of electrical shock. Do
not attempt to circumvent this interlock.)
3. Remove the lamp by pulling out the complete assembly.
Step 3
Step 4
4. Install a new lamp case assembly and secure it in place with the
two screws.
CAUTION: Do not use a lamp other than the NEC replacement
lamp.
Order this from your NEC dealer using your projector's model
number.
5. Reattach the lamp cover and reinstall the single screw.
6. After you install a new lamp, select the lamp Usage icon and
press and hold the "Power On" button on the remote control for
ten seconds to reset the lamp time clock to zero.
NOTE: If resetting the lamp clock back to zero after 2100 hours of service,
press the "Power Off" (not "Power On") button on the remote control for ten
seconds .
Step 5
NOTE: When you replace the lamp, it is also wise to replace the filter. The
filter comes in the same package with your replacement lamp.
CAUTION: Do not put the LCD projector on end except to
replace the air filter.

Cleaning Or Replacing The Filter
The air-filter sponge keeps the inside of the MultiSync MT1020G/
820G LCD Projector free from dust or dirt and should be cleaned
after every 100 hours of operation (more often in dusty conditions).
If the filter is dirty or clogged, your projector may overheat.
NOTE: Clean your filter after every 100 hours of operation.
CAUTION
• Turn off the LCD projector and wait for the fan to stop. Turn
off the main power and unplug the projector before replacing
the filter.
• Only clean the outside of the filter cover with a vacuum
cleaner.
• Do not attempt to operate the projector without a filter.
• Your LCD projector will not operate unless the filter is in-
stalled correctly.
• Do not put the LCD projector on end except to replace the
filter.
To clean the air-filter:
1. Turn over the projector. Put the LCD projector on end so that the
bottom is visible.
2. Vacuum the filter through the filter cover.
3. Place the projector back in a horizontal position.
To replace the air-filter:
1. Remove the filter panel by pushing up on the catch of the cover
with a flat-head phillips until you feel it detach.
2. Remove the filter and replace it.
3. Reinstall the filter panel.
NOTE: Do not detach the sponge from the filter cover. Do not wash the
filter with soap and water. Soap and water will damage the filter
membrane.
Before replacing the air-filter, remove dust and dirt from the
projector cabinet. Keep them out during filter replacement.
Remote Control Battery Installation
1. Press firmly and slide the battery cover off.
2. Remove all two old batteries and install new ones (AA). Ensure
that you have the batteries' polarity (+/–) aligned correctly.
3. Slip the cover back over the batteries until it snaps into place.

This section explains conditions that you will encounter when operating your MT1020G while dis-
playing an SXGA (1280
ן 1024) image. • When a menu or message is displayed while an SXGA image is projected, several lines of informa-
tion will be lost.
• When the "LAMP USAGE 2000 HOURS" message appears, several lines of information will be
lost.
• SXGA images inherently display a 5 to 4 ratio, resulting in an image that appears to be smaller and
more square than the 4 to 3 format commonly displayed.
