LASER RADIATION-  
REMOTE CONTROL  
MODEL NO. : RRMCG1530CESA  
DC3V (1.5VX2PCS.)  
The laser pointer on the remote control emits a laser beam from the laser  
pointer window. This is a Class II laser which may impair your sight if directed  
into the eyes. The three marks shown on the left are caution labels for the  
laser beam.  
• Do not look into the laser pointer window or shine the laser beam on yourself or  
others. (The laser beam used in this product is harmless when directed onto  
the skin. However, be careful not to project the beam directly into the eyes.)  
• Always use the laser pointer at temperatures between 41°F and 95°F (
ם
5°C  
and 
ם
35°C).

Cautions Concerning the Setup of the Projector  
95˚F  
(
ם
35˚C)  
For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, SHARP recommends  
that this projector be installed in an area free from humidity, dust and cigarette  
smoke. When the projector is subjected to these environments, the lens and  
filter must be cleaned more often. Periodically the filter should be replaced  
and the projector should be cleaned internally. As long as the projector is  
properly maintained in this manner, use in these environments will not reduce  
the overall operation life. Please note that all internal cleaning must be  
performed by an Authorized Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service  
Center.  
41˚F  
(
ם
5˚C)  
Notes on Operation  
The two marks shown on the left are caution labels for parts of the projector  
that emit intense heat during operation.  
The exhaust vents, the lamp cage cover and adjacent areas may be extremely  
hot during projector operation. To prevent injury, do not touch these areas until  
they have sufficiently cooled.  
Allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between the cooling fan (exhaust  
vent) and the nearest wall or obstruction.  
If the cooling fan becomes obstructed, a protection device will automatically  
turn off the projector lamp. This does not indicate a malfunction. Remove the  
projector power cord from the wall outlet and wait at least 10 minutes. Then  
turn on the power by plugging the power cord back in. This will return the  
projector to the normal operating condition.  
Temperature Monitor Function  
If the projector starts to overheat due to setup problems or a dirty air filter, TEMP.”  
and “ ” will flash in the lower-left corner of the picture. If the temperature continues  
to rise, the lamp will turn off, the TEMPERATURE WARNING indicator on the  
projector will flash, and after a 90-second cooling-off period the power will shut  
off. Refer to Lamp/Maintenance Indicatorson page 47, for details.  
The cooling fan regulates the internal temperature, and its performance is  
automatically controlled. The sound of the fan may change during projector  
operation due to changes in the fan speed.

Setting up the Screen  
Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level to achieve an optimal image.  
Move the projector forward or backward if the edges of the image are distorted.  
The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. If the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be  
distorted, making viewing difficult.  
Position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling directly onto the screen washes out colors, making viewing  
difficult. Close the curtains and dim the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.  
A polarizing screen cannot be used with this projector.  
Standard Setup (Front Projection)  
Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according  
to the desired picture size (see the table below).

Lamp/Maintenance Indicators  
Maintenance Indicators  
The warning lights on the projector indicate problems  
inside the projector.  
There are two warning lights: a TEMPERATURE  
WARNING indicator which warns that the projector is  
too hot, and a LAMP REPLACEMENT indicator which  
lets you know when to change the lamp.  
If a problem occurs, either the TEMPERATURE  
WARNING indicator or the LAMP REPLACEMENT  
indicator will light up red. After turning off the power,  
follow the procedures given below.

triggered, preventing the power from going on. Should this occur, take the power cord out of the wall outlet and put it back  
in again.

The lamp in this projector operates for approximately 1,500 cumulative hours, depending on the usage environ-  
ment. It is recommended that the lamp be replaced after 1,400 cumulative hours of use or when you notice a  
significant deterioration of the picture and color quality. The lamp usage time can be checked with the On-screen  
Display (see page 39).  
CAUTION

When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the OK response code for the previous  
command from the projector is verified.  
When using the computer control function of the projector, the projector operating status cannot be read to the computer.  
Therefore, confirm the status by transmitting the display commands for each adjustment menu and checking the status with  
the On-screen Display. If the projector receives a command other than a menu display command, it will execute the com-  
mand without displaying the On-screen Display.

This projector may not be able to display images from notebook computers in simultaneous (CRT/LCD) mode. Should this  
occur, turn off the LCD display on the notebook computer and output the display data in CRT onlymode. Details on how  
to change display modes can be found in your notebook computers operation manual.  
This projector can receive 640 
ן
 350 VESA format VGA signals, however, 640 
ן
 400will appear on the screen.  
When receiving 1,600 
ן
 1,200 VESA format UXGA signals, sampling occurs and the image is displayed with 1,024 lines,  
causing part of the image to be blocked.

Guide to Effective Presentations  
Electronic presentations are one of the most effective  
tools presenters can use to persuade an audience.  
There are several ways to enhance your presentation  
and maximize your effectiveness. The following are  
guidelines to help you create and deliver a dynamic  
presentation.  
a.Types of Presentations  
Computer Presentations  
To present basic information such as graphs, spreadsheets,  
documents and images, use word processing and spreadsheet  
applications.  
30  
25

5
To convey more complex information and create more dynamic  
presentations which allow you to control the pace of your delivery,  
utilize software such as Astound®, Freelance®, Persuasion® or  
PowerPoint®.  
For high-end multimedia and interactive presentations, use software  
0
such as Macromedia Director®.  
Astound®, Freelance®, Persuasion®, PowerPoint® and Macromedia  
Director® are trademarks of their respective companies.  
Video Presentations  
Use of video equipment, such as a VCR, DVD player and laser disc  
player, can be effective for delivering instructional or illustrative  
information that is difficult to present.  
Digital Cameras and Personal Digital Assistants  
(PDAs)  
For highly compact and portable presentations, still cameras, digital  
video cameras, document cameras and PDAs are ideal for transferring  
data without cumbersome conversions.  
Multimedia Presentations  
You can integrate all of the above methods for a full multimedia  
presentation including video, audio, computer applications and World  
Wide Web information.  
Wireless Presentations  
Use any IrDA/IrTranP compatible source such as a laptop, digital  
camera or PDA to project still images quickly and effortlessly without  
the use of cables.  
b. Creative Presentations  
Oftentimes presenters do not take advantage of the many  
subtle ways they can manipulate their electronic slides to more  
effectively persuade the audience.  
Color has a great effect on the audience during a presentation.  
When used correctly and legibly, studies show that  
background & foreground colors establish an emotional tone  
for a presentation, help viewers understand and retain  
information, and influence an audience to take a desired  
course of action.  
Color Considerations  
Choose legible colors.  
Text and graphics colors need sufficient contrast.  
Use darker colors for the background since a lighter background  
can create uncomfortable glare. (Yellow on black creates an ideal  
contrast.)

Guide to Effective Presentations  
Background colors can subconsciously affect the audience:  
Redincreases viewerspulse and breathing and  
encourages risk taking but can also be associated with  
financial loss.  
Red  
Blue  
Bluehas a calming and conservative affect on the  
audience but can also create boredom among corporate  
audiences that are often inundated with this background  
color.  
Greenstimulates interaction.  
Green  
Black  
Blackconveys finality and certainty. Use it as a transitional  
color between slides when moving from one idea to another.  
Foreground colors create a major impact on how well an  
audience understands and remembers a message.  
Use one or two bright colors for emphasis.  
Highlight important messages.  
The eye has a difficult time reading certain colored text on  
certain colored backgrounds. For example, text and  
background colors in red and green, and blue and black  
make for difficult viewing.  
Colorblind individuals may find it difficult to distinguish  
between red and green, brown and green, and purple and  
blue. Avoid using these colors together.

One of the most common mistakes in any type of  
presentation visual is the selection of type fonts that are too  
small, too thin, or too difficult to read.  
all, to  
o
to  
at  
a
th  
If you are not sure how well a given font will read on a screen  
at various sizes, try this: Draw a 6Љ 
ן
 8Љ box on a piece of  
paper and print out several lines of text inside the box with  
your computer printer at 300 or 600 dpi resolution. Vary the  
sizes of text to simulate headline, body and text call-outs  
for any charts or graphs. Hold the printout at arms length.  
This is how your text will look on a 4Ј (1.2 meters)-wide  
screen at 10Ј (3 meters), on a 7.5Ј (2.3 meters)-wide screen  
at 20Ј (6.1 meters) and a 12Ј (3.7 meters)-wide screen at  
30Ј (9.1 meters). If you cannot read the text easily, you  
should put less copy on your visuals or use larger typefaces.  
Design your visuals so that they are visible by the viewer in  
the last row.  
Nothing will ruin your presentation faster than misspelled  
words. Take the time to proofread and edit your work before  
your visuals become a permanent part of your presentation.  
Mixed case text is easier to read than text which is displayed  
in capital letters.  
Another important attribute of fonts is whether any particular  
face is serif or sans-serif. Serifs are small, usually horizontal  
cross strokes that are added to the end of a letters main  
strokes. Because of their ability to coax the eye along the  
line of type, fonts with serifs are generally acknowledged to  
be more readable.

c. Set-Up  
Good  
Bad  
Good  
When giving a presentation, you need to set the stage both  
figuratively and literally for success. The way you set up a  
presentation room will have a great impact on the audiences  
perception of you and your message. By manipulating the  
placement and use of the following tools, you will improve the  
impact of your presentation.  
Presentation from SHARP  
LightingGood lighting is an important component of a  
successful presentation. You should strive to create an unequal  
distribution of light. An audience should always see as much  
of the presenters face as possible, so most of the light should  
be focused on you. Because it is important for you to be able  
to read the audiences faces and body language, some light  
should be shed upon them. However, no light should shine  
on the screen.

StageWhen presenting on the same level surface that your  
audience is on, most people can only see the top one-third of  
your body. Therefore, it is recommended that when giving a  
presentation to an audience of 25 or more, you stand on a  
stage or platform. As more of your body is visible, the easier  
it is to communicate with an audience.  
PodiumsThe best presenters avoid podiums because they  
hide 75% of the body and restrict movement. However, many  
people feel more comfortable with a podium to hold their notes  
and hide their discomfort. If you must use a podium, angle it  
at 45 degrees to the audience so that you are not completely  
hidden.  
VisualsIt is imperative that you make sure your visuals are  
large enough and projected far enough for the audience to  
see. Eight times the height of an image is the optimal viewing  
distance to read 24 point type. The bottom of a screen should  
be at least 6Ј (1.8 meters) above the floor.  
ScreenThe screen should always be in the center of the  
room so that all audience members can see it. Because people  
read from left to right, you should always stand to the  
audiences left when discussing visuals.  
SeatingArrange seating according to the dynamics of your  
presentation. If the presentation is more than half-a-day, use  
classroom style seatinga chair and a desk. If you would  
like to encourage audience interaction, use chevron seating,  
angling the chairs into a Vshape. When you have a very  
small audience, a Ushaped arrangement will increase  
interchange.

Guide to Effective Presentations  
d. Rehearsing & Delivery  
The best time to rehearse is the day or evening before,  
not a couple of hours before, and the best place to  
rehearse is in the actual room. Rehearsing a speech  
in a small office is not the same as standing up in  
front of 100 people in a hotel ballroom or classroom.  
Due to varying processor speeds of computers,  
practice your slide transitions for proper timing.  
Whenever possible, set up your equipment well in  
advance to allow adequate time to resolve any  
unexpected issues such as lighting, power, seating  
and audio.  
Thoroughly check every piece of equipment you bring  
along. Make sure you have fresh batteries in your  
remote controls and laptop computer. Fully charge  
your computers battery before the presentation and  
connect your AC adaptor for added safety.  
Make sure you are completely familiar with the control  
panel on your projector and remote controls.  
If you are using a microphone, check it out before  
hand and walk around to see where you might have  
problems with feedback. Avoid standing in these  
problem areas during your presentation.  
e. Presentation Tips  
Before beginning, visualize yourself delivering an  
outstanding presentation.  
Know your speech, memorizing at least the first three  
minutes of your presentation will allow you to focus  
on your rhythm and pacing.  
Speak to early arrivals to help you build a rapport  
with the audience and make you feel more  
comfortable.  
Do not be overly dependent on your visuals by reciting  
what your audience is already reading. Know your  
material well enough to be able to deliver the  
presentation with ease. Use your visuals to emphasize  
keypoints.  
Be sure to project your voice clearly and use eye  
contact to maintain audience attention.  
Do not wait until halfway through your presentation to  
get your point across. If you wait and try to create a  
build-up, you may lose some of your audience along  
the way.  
Keep your audiences attention. As most people only  
focus for 15 to 20 minutes during a one-hour  
presentation, it is important to recapture their attention  
periodically. Use phrases like, This is critical to my  
pointor This is absolutely fundamentalto remind  
them you are saying something they need to hear.
