Lamp Replacement
• Perform lamp replacement in accordance with the instructions on
page E-37.
• 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.
• 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.
Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unob-
structed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your LCD projector.
Allow at least 3 inches (10cm) of space between your LCD projector
and a wall.
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 immediately and have the
object removed by a qualified NEC service person.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of 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.

Lens cap
1. Determine the image size
2. Set up a screen or select a non-glossy white wall onto which
you can project your image.
Carrying The LCD Projector Always carry your LCD projec-
tor by the handle. Ensure that the power cord and any other
cables connecting to video sources are disconnected 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 minimum size the
image can be is approximately 0.5 m (20") measured diago-
nally when the projector is roughly 1.0 m from the wall or
screen. The largest the image can be is 7.6 m (300") when the
projector is about 12.2 m from the wall or screen.

of the projector. )
6. If a trapezoidal distortion appears on the screen, use the
KEYSTONE button on the remote control or select Key-
stone from the menu to correct the distortion.
If necessary, adjust the front or rear feet so that the lens
surface is parallel to the screen. If you use the projector with
the screen tilted, the picture will be distorted. Each of the rear
feet height can be changed up to 4 mm.
7. Increase or reduce the size of the projected image by press-
ing the "Zoom" (+) or (–) buttons on the remote control or
top of the cabinet.

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.
Do not use the LCD projector where temperatures vary greatly. The projector must be used at temperatures between 0˚C and 40˚C.
Do not expose the LCD projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will harm the screen image.
Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your LCD projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the side or
the front of the projector.
Ceiling Installation
Installing your MultiSync MT830/1030 LCD Projector on the ceiling must be done by a qualified technician. Contact your NEC
dealer for more information.
Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
NOTE : Distances may vary ±5%.

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-32.)
Reflecting The Image
Using a mirror to reflect your LCD projector's image enables
you to enjoy a much larger image. Contact your NEC dealer if
you need a mirror.
Mirror
If you're using a mirror and your image is inverted, use the
“Menu” and “Select” buttons on your projector cabinet or (▲)
(▼) buttons on your remote control to correct the orientation.
(See page E-32.)
Screen
Rear Screen Projection
You can use your MultiSync MT830/1030 LCD projector to
project an image from the rear onto a transparent screen. The
distance the projector must be from the screen is the same as if
you were projecting the image from the front. Contact your
NEC dealer if you need a transparent screen.
If you're projecting the image from the rear and your image is
inverted, use the “Menu" and "Select" buttons on your projector
cabinet or (▲) (▼) buttons on your remote control to correct the
image. (See page E-32 .)

Remote Control Guideline
1. Plug the serial cable with the mouse output port of the projector into your computer's mouse port and restart your computer to
gain remote mouse control.
2. When using the remote control's built-in infrared mouse on a laptop computer, the laptop's mouse, trackball or trackpad will be
disabled. Disconnect the serial cable from the mouse output port and restart your computer to regain trackball or trackpad
mouse control.
3. If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power
management software.
4. If you accidentally hit the OFF button on the remote control, wait one full minute and then press the ON button to resume.

ן 1024 (AccuBlend) To connect to a PC, Macintosh or computer equipped with an
XGA/SVGA /VGA adapter or compatible graphics adapter,
simply:
NOTE: For settings other than display modes supported by your
Macintosh and MT830/1030, use of the DIP switch may bounce a
image slightly or may display nothing. If this happens, set the DIP
switch to the 13” fixed mode and then restart your Macintosh. After
that, restore to a displayable mode and then restart the Macintosh
again.
Make sure that the MT830/1030 and your Macintosh are connected
with the pin adapter and the supplied signal cable (mini D-Sub 15-
pin connector) and then restart your Macintosh.
1. Turn off the power to your projector and computer.
2. If your PC does not support XGA/SVGA/VGA you will need
to install an XGA/SVGA/VGA graphics board. Consult your
computer's owner's manual for your XGA/SVGA/VGA con-
figuration. If you need to install a new board, see the manual
that comes with your new graphics board for installation
instructions.
3. Use the signal cable that's supplied to connect your PC or
Macintosh computer to the projector. For a Macintosh, use
the supplied pin adapter to connect to your Mac's video port.
4. Turn on the 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.
When using a Macintosh with the MT830/1030, set the DIP
switches of the supplied pin adapter according to your resolu-
tion. After setting, restart your Macintosh.
See the following pages for setting of the DIP switches.
•
When using with a Macintosh, XGA/VGA/SVGA is recom-
mended if your Macintosh supports this mode.
• When using with a Macintosh PowerBook, output may not
be set to 1024
ן 768 unless “mirroring” is off on your PowerBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your
Macintosh computer for mirroring.
NOTE: A Video Adapter cable manufactured by Apple Com-
puter is needed for a PowerBook which does not have a mini D-

Changing Video Resolutions
1. Under the Apple menu, select "Control Panels" and open
"Monitors."
2. Click and open "Options."
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:
640
ן 480 at 16.7 million colors (24 bit Truecolor) 800
ן 600 at 65 thousand colors. 3. Select your new resolution and click "OK."
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.
1024
ן 768 at 256 colors. As the resolution increases, the number of colors you can run
decreases. With 2 meg. of memory a computer will run:
640
ן 480 at 16.7 million colors (24 bit Truecolor). 800
ן 600 at 16.7 million colors (24 bit Truecolor). 1024
ן 768 at 65 thousand colors. Notebook Computers And Resolution Standards
NEC projectors are designed to project industry standardized
video such as VESA (Video Electronics StandardsAssociation)
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 real VESA or VGA
signal.

4 MAINTENANCE
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
Step 1A
Step 1B
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
• 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 go into stand by mode 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
To replace the lamp:
1. Loosen the single screw that secures the lamp housing cover
and remove the cover.
2. Loosen the two screws securing the lamp case.
3. Remove the lamp by pulling out the complete assembly.
4. Install a new lamp case assembly and secure it in place with
the two screws.
Step 3
Step 4
CAUTION: Do not use a lamp other than the NEC replace-
ment lamp.
Order this from your NEC dealer using your projector's
model number.
5. Reattach the lamp cover and tighten 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 .
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.
Step 5
E-37
Cleaning Or Replacing The Filter
The air-filter sponge keeps the inside of the MultiSync MT830/
1030 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 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
cover.
• Your LCD projector will not operate unless the filter cover
is installed correctly.
To clean the air-filter:
Vacuum the filter through the filter cover.
To replace the air-filter:
1. Remove the filter cover by pushing up on the catch of the
cover with a flat-head screwdriver until you feel it detach.
2. Reinstall the new filter cover.
NOTE: Do not detach the sponge from the filter cover. Do not
wash the filter cover with soap and water. Soap and
water will damage the filter membrane.
Before replacing the filter cover, remove dust and dirt
from the projector cabinet. Keep out dust and dirt
during filter replacement.
Remote Control Battery Installation
1. Press firmly and slide the battery cover off.
2. Remove both old batteries and install new ones (AA). En-
sure that you have the batteries' polarity (+/–) aligned cor-
rectly.
3. Slip the cover back over the batteries until it snaps into place.
