Usage Guidelines  
Do not look directly into the projection lens when the projector  
is turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes.  
Do not block the grills on the projector. Restricting the air flow  
can cause it to overheat and turn off. If this happens, you must  
wait a minute before attempting to turn it back on.  
Handle the projector as you would any product with glass  
components. Be especially careful not to drop it.  
Avoid leaving the projector in direct sunlight or extreme cold  
for extended periods of time. If this happens, allow it to reach  
room temperature before use.  
Transport the projector in a vendor-approved hard or soft case.  
Part numbers for these cases are listed on page 37.  
If You Need Assistance  
The first place to look for help is in this manual. Be sure to check  
the guidelines in “Troubleshooting” on page 32.  
Please contact your Toshiba dealer for details.

SETTING UP THE PROJECTOR  
1 Place the projector on a flat surface.  
The projector must be within 10 feet (3 m) of your power  
source and within 6 feet (1.8 m) of your computer.  
If you want to project from behind a translucent screen, set  
up the projector behind your screen. See “Rear Projection”  
on page 23 to reverse the image.  
2 Position the projector the desired distance from the screen.  
If the image is too big or too small, use the zoom ring to  
adjust the size or move the projector forward or backward.

Connecting a Computer  
The projector ships with an analog computer cable. If your com-  
puter has a digital output, you can order the optional digital com-  
puter cable. Using a digital source generates the highest quality  
and brightest image possible. See “Optional Accessories” on  
page 37.  
1 Plug the end of the computer cable with one cable into the  
connector on the projector.  
2 Plug the blue end of the computer cable into the video connec-  
tor on your computer.  
NOTE: Many laptop computers  
do not automatically turn on their  
external video port when a sec-  
ondary display device such as a  
projector is connected. Refer to  
your computer manual for the  
command that activates the exter-  
nal video port. Activation com-  
mands for some laptop computers  
are listed in the Appendix of this  
manual on page 38 and in the  
Service section of our website.

Connecting a Video Player  
If your video player uses a round, one-prong composite video  
connector, use the composite video cable. If your video player  
uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, use the S-video  
cable. S-video generates a higher quality image.  
1 Plug one end of the composite video cable into the “video-  
out” connector on your video player (Figure 7). This connec-  
tor may be labeled “To Monitor.”  
NOTE: HDTV sources must be  
connected to the projector using  
If you’re using an S-video cable, plug one end of the

that shipped with the projector.  
3 Press the Power switch on the back of the projector.  
The fans start to run, the LED on the top of the projector  
(Figure 11 on page 14) lights green, and the startup screen  
appears. It takes about one minute for the image to achieve  
full brightness.  
NOTE: The first time you connect  
your computer to the projector, the  
computer may display a message  
stating that new hardware was  
found. The Add New Hardware  
Wizard may appear. Use the Wiz-  
ard to load the correct driver (the  
computer considers the projector a  
Plug and Play Monitor).

The video image should display on the projection screen. If  
it doesn’t, press the SOURCE button on the keypad or  
remote to display your video image.  
5 Turn on your computer.  
The computer image should display on the projection  
screen. If it doesn’t, press the SOURCE button on the keypad  
or remote to display your computer’s image.  
Make sure your laptop’s external video port is activated;  
see “Portable and Laptop Activation Chart” on page 38 for  
details.  
NOTE: With some computers,  
the order in which you power up  
the equipment is very important.  
Most computers should be turned  
on last, after all other peripherals  
have been turned on. Refer to your  
computer’s documentation to  
determine the correct order.  
If necessary, make adjustments to the image using the pro-  
jector’s on-screen menus. To open the menus, press the  
MENU button on the keypad or remote. For more informa-  
tion about the menus, see page 16.  
Turning Off the Projector  
To turn off the projector, press the Power switch. If you want to  
turn the lamp back on, you must allow 90 seconds for the lamp to  
cool. The lamp won’t light if it’s too hot.  
NOTE: To maximize lamp life,  
allow the projector to run for at  
least five minutes before turning  
it off.

USING THE PROJECTOR  
This section describes how to use and make adjustments to the  
projector. It also provides a reference to the keypad and remote  
buttons and the options available from the on-screen menus.  
Basic Image Adjustment  
1 Make sure you have powered up your equipment in the right  
order (page 9).  
2 If the image doesn’t display completely, zoom the image  
(page 11), adjust the height of the projector (page 12) or center  
the image by adjusting its horizontal or vertical position  
(page 20). Be sure the projector is at a 90 degree angle to the  
screen.  
3 If the image is out of focus, rotate the focus lens (page 11).  
4 If the colors don’t look right, adjust the brightness, contrast,  
tint, or color (page 17).  
Adjusting the Projector  
To focus the image, rotate the focus ring (Figure 8) until the image  
is clear. To zoom the image, rotate the zoom ring. This adjusts the  
image size.  
NOTE: To obtain the best overall  
focus quality, open the menu and  
focus on the text. This will ensure  
that the best overall image quality  
is achieved.

Using the Remote Control  
To control the computers mouse from the projector’s remote or  
keypad, you must connect the mouse connector on the computer  
cable to the computer. See page 7 for details.  
The projector ships with a remote that has four function buttons,  
a disk mouse and two mouse buttons, one on the top of the  
remote and one on the bottom.  
Point the remote control at the projection screen or at the front of  
the projector (not at the computer). The range for optimum oper-  
ation is about 25 feet. If you point the remote at the projection  
screen, the distance to the screen and back to the projector must  
be less than or equal to 25 feet. For best results, point the remote  
directly at the projector.

on the screen. You can move the cursor at any angle by pressing  
the corresponding edge of the disk. The mouse button on the top  
of the remote simulates your computer’s right mouse button; the  
button on the bottom simulates your computers left mouse but-  
ton. See “Using the Keypad and Remote Buttons” starting on  
page 14 for a description of the four function buttons.  
NOTE: If the remote is inactive  
for several minutes, it “sleeps” to  
conserve battery life. Press any  
button except the disk mouse to  
re-activate the remote.  
If you are creating presentations in Microsoft® PowerPoint®, you  
can use the remote’s mouse buttons to navigate through your  
presentation while in Slide Show mode. To configure PowerPoint  
for this, choose Options from the Tools menu, click the View Tab,  
de-select the “Popup Menu on Right Mouse Click” option in the  
Slide Show section, then click OK. Then, when you’re in Power-  
Point’s Slide Show mode, a left click advances to the next slide  
and a right click returns to the previous slide (other PowerPoint  
modes are not affected).

Resize  
Resize allows you to select from among four different re-sizing  
options. The default is Standard, which resizes the image from its  
original version to fit a standard 4x3 aspect ratio screen. Wide-  
screen Letterbox preserves the 16x9 aspect ratio of the original  
theater version, but the image is placed in a 4x3 space, so black  
bars appear at the top and bottom of the image. Enhanced Wide-  
screen also preserves the aspect ratio of the original theater ver-  
sion and is designed to be used with content that is Enhanced for  
Widescreen TVs. This option yields more detail than Widescreen  
Letterbox. Native reduces the Standard size to match the height of  
Enhanced Widescreen.

Image Menu for Video Sources  
FIGURE 16  
Image menu for video sources  
Resize  
Resize allows you to select from among four different re-sizing  
options. The default is Standard, which resizes the image from its  
original version to fit a standard 4x3 aspect ratio screen. Wide-  
screen Letterbox preserves the 16x9 aspect ratio of the original  
theater version, but the image is placed in a 4x3 space, so black  
bars appear at the top and bottom of the image. Enhanced Wide-  
screen also preserves the aspect ratio of the original theater ver-  
sion and is designed to be used with content that is Enhanced for  
Widescreen TVs. This option yields more detail than Widescreen  
Letterbox. Native reduces the Standard size to match the height of  
Enhanced Widescreen.  
Highlight Resize, press SELECT, use the INCREMENT or DECRE-  
MENT button to cycle through the options, then press SELECT.  
Video Standard (video sources only)  
When Video is set to Auto, the projector attempts to pick the  
video standard (NTSC, NTSC 4.43, PAL, or SECAM) automati-  
cally based on the input signal it receives. (The video standard  
options may vary depending on your region of the world.) If the  
projector is unable to detect the correct standard, the colors might  
not look right or the image might appear “torn.” If this happens,  
manually select a video standard.  
Highlight Video standard, press SELECT, use the INCREMENT or  
DECREMENT button to cycle through the options, then press  
SELECT.

Cleaning the Lens  
Follow these steps to clean the projection 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.  
3 If you don’t intend to use the projector immediately, replace  
the lens cap.  
Replacing the Projection Lamp  
The lamp hour counter in the Status menu counts the number of  
hours the lamp has been in use. Change the lamp when the  
brightness is no longer acceptable. You can order new lamp mod-  
ules from your InFocus dealer. See “Accessories” on page 36 for  
information.  
WARNING: To avoid burns,  
allow the projector to cool for at  
least 30 minutes before you open  
the lamp access grill. Never  
extract the lamp module while the  
projector is operating.  
Follow these steps to replace the projection lamp:  
1 Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.  
2 Wait 30 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.

the front of the projector. Slide the screwdriver toward the  
back of the projector to disengage the lamp access grill, then  
slide the lamp access grill off (away from the lens).  
WARNING: Be extremely careful  
when removing the lamp module.  
In the unlikely event that the bulb  
ruptures, small glass fragments  
may be generated. The lamp  
module is designed to contain  
these fragments, but use caution  
when removing the lamp module.

Replacing the Batteries in the Remote Control  
The life of the batteries depends on how often and how long you  
use the remote. Symptoms of low battery charge include erratic  
responses when using the remote and a reduced range of opera-  
tion.  
Follow these steps to replace the batteries:  
1 Turn the remote face down in your hand.  
2 Push the tab on the battery door toward the top of the remote  
and lift the door off.  
3 Remove the old batteries and dispose of them in an environ-  
mentally proper manner.  
4 Install two new AAA alkaline batteries. Make sure you install  
each in the correct direction.  
5 Insert the hooks on the battery door into the remote and press  
the tab to re-install the door.  
Using the Security Lock  
The projector has a security connector for use with a PC Guardian  
Cable Lock System (Figure 25). See “Optional Accessories” on  
page 37 for ordering information. Refer to the information that  
came with the lock for instructions on how to use it to secure the  
projector.  
NOTE: The lamp cannot be  
removed while the security lock is  
attached.

Using Video Mirroring with a PowerBook Computer  
When you turn video mirroring (called SimulScan in newer Pow-  
erBooks—see below) on, the projector displays the same informa-  
tion that appears on your PowerBook’s built-in screen. When  
video mirroring is off, the projector acts like a separate display.  
To turn on video mirroring for the first time:  
1 Open the Monitors control panel; click on Monitor 2.  
2 Set the number of colors you want.  
3 Open the Control Strip, then click on the monitor icon.  
4 Select “Turn Video Mirroring On.”  
Now you can turn video mirroring on and off from the Control  
Strip without having to open the Monitors control panel again.  
When using video mirroring and high color graphics such as  
slide shows, the projected image occasionally might turn black  
and white. If this happens, perform the following steps:  
1 Turn off video mirroring.  
2 Open the Monitors control panel.  
3 Move the white menu bar to Monitor 2 to set the projector as  
the primary monitor.  
4 Restart the PowerBook.  
Using SimulScan  
Some newer PowerBooks display images on an external monitor  
or projector differently than previous ones. When using  
SimulScan, the projector displays the same information that  
appears on your PowerBook  
To select SimulScan:  
1 Open the Control Panel, then double-click Monitors and  
Sound.  
2 In the Resolution list, choose the SimulScan mode, then click  
OK.  
3 If this changes your display settings, a dialog box appears.  
Click OK to confirm the change.
