240 V)
When the on-screen menu’s standby mode is set to “NORMAL”, the power consumption in the standby mode is
0.11 watts.
•
“Eco mode” for low power consumption and “Carbon Meter” display
The projector is equipped with an “eco mode” for reducing power consumption during use. Furthermore, the
power-saving effect when the eco mode is set is converted into the amount of reductions of CO2 emissions and
this is indicated on the confirmation message displayed when the power is turned off and at “Information” on the
on-screen menu (CARBON METER).
Maintenance
•
Maximum lamp replacement time of 4000 hours and no need to clean the filters
When used in the eco mode, the lamp replacement time* is extended to a maximum of 4000 hours.
* This time is not guaranteed.
Furthermore, this projector uses large 2-layer filters.When these filters are replaced with new ones when changing
the lamp, there is no need for regular filter cleaning.

There are two messages: [TOTAL CARBON SAVINGS] and [CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION]. The [TOTAL CARBON
SAVINGS] message shows the total amount of CO2 emission reduction from the time of shipment up to now.You can
The [CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION] message shows the amount of CO2 emission reduction between the time of
changing to ECO MODE immediately after the time of power-on and the time of power-off. The [CARBON SAVINGS-
SESSION] message will be displayed in the [POWER OFF/ ARE YOU SURE ?] message at the time of power-off.
TIP:
• The formula as shown below is used to calculate the amount of CO2 emission reduction.
Amount of CO2 emission reduction = (Power consumption in OFF for ECO MODE − Power consumption in ON for ECO MODE) ×
CO2 conversion factor.* When the image is turned off with the AV-MUTE button the amount of CO2 emmission reduction will also
increase.
* Calculation for amount of CO2 emission reduction is based on an OECD publication “CO2 Emissions from Fuel Combustion,
2008 Edition”.
• The [TOTAL CARBON SAVINGS] is calculated based on savings recorded in 15 minutes intervals.
• This formula will not apply to the power consumption which is not affected by whether [ECO MODE] is turned on or off.

❸ Displaying a Picture Using [EDGE BLENDING]
A high resolution video can be projected on an even bigger screen by combining multiple projectors on the left, right,
top and bottom.
This projector is equipped with an “EDGE BLENDING Function” that makes the edges (boundaries) of the projection
screen indistinguishable.
NOTE:
• Before performing the Edge Blending function, place the projector in the correct position so that the image becomes square in
the appropriate size, and then make optical adjustments (lens shift, focus, and zoom).
• Adjust the brightness of each projector using [LAMP ADJUST] under [LAMP MODE]. In addition, use [REF. WHITE BALANCE] to
adjust the [CONTRAST], [BRIGHTNESS] and [UNIFORMITY].
Before explaining use of the Edge Blending function
This section explains the case for “Example: Placing two projectors side by side”. As shown, the projected image on
the left is referred to as “Projector A” and the projected image on the right is referred to “Projector B”. Unless otherwise
specified hereinafter, the “projector” is used to mean both A and B.

6. Installation and Connections
Portrait projection (vertical orientation)
Portrait screens from a computer can be projected by installing the projec-
tor in a vertical orientation. All the screens such as the on-screen menu
will be rotated in an counter-clockwise direction.
The projector is equipped with a sensor to automatically detect the instal-
lation state.
When the projector is installed in a portrait configuration for the first time
with the lamp lit up, a caution message to indicate that the operating time
of the lamp may be shortened will be displayed.
This message will automatically disappear when the installation state of
the projector is returned to the original state.
Precautions during installation
•
•
Please do not install the projector in a vertical orientation on top of the floor or table on its own.The air inlet may
be obstructed, resulting in the projector getting warm and the possibility of fire and malfunction occurring.
For vertical installation, install the projector with the air inlet (filter) facing downwards. A stand for supporting
the projector needs to be made for this purpose. In this case, the stand must be designed such that the center
of gravity of the projector is located well within the legs of the stand. If not, the projector may fall over and result
in injury, damage and malfunction.
•
Do not use the lens shift function when performing portrait projection. Use the position of the lens shift mecha-
nism in the center (lens center).
NOTE:
• The lamp replacement time (as a guide)* is about 2000 hours for portrait projection.
* Replacement time is not guaranteed.
• When installing in a portrait configuration for the first time, portrait projection cannot be used when the number of lamp hours
used shown under [INFO.] → [USAGE TIME] → [LAMP HOURS USED] in the on-screen menu exceeds 1900 hours.
• When the [FAN MODE] is set to a mode other than [AUTO], portrait projection cannot be used.
Design and manufacturing conditions for the stand
Please engage an installation service provider for the design and manufacture of the customized stand to be used for
portrait projection. Please ensure that the following are complied with when designing the stand.
1. Maintain an opening of at least 310 × 170 mm so as not to obstruct the air inlet / filter of the projector.
2. Maintain a distance of at least 130 mm between the projector air inlet and the floor (for the opening of the filter
cover).
3. Use the four screw holes at the back of the projector to secure it to the stand.
Screw hole center dimension: 200 × 250 mm
Screw hole dimension on the projector: M4 with a maximum depth of 8 mm.
*
Please design the stand such that the rear legs at the back of the projector do not contact the stand. The front
legs can be turned and removed.
4. Horizontal adjustment mechanism (for example, bolts and nuts in four locations)
5. Please design the stand such that it does not topple over easily.

Calculation of the throw distance from the screen size
NP11FL lens throw distance (m) = H × 0.8 : 0.6 m (min.) to 2.5 m (max.)
NP30ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 0.8 to H × 1.1 : 1.0 m (min.) to 10.9 m (max.)
NP12ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 1.2 to H × 1.6 : 0.7 m (min.) to 16.0 m (max.)
NP13ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 1.5 to H × 3.0 : 1.2 m (min.) to 30.8 m (max.)
NP14ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 3.0 to H × 4.8 : 3.6 m (min.) to 49.2 m (max.)
NP15ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 4.7 to H × 7.3 : 5.7 m (min.) to 73.8 m (max.)
“H” (Horizontal) refers to the screen width.
* Figures differ by several % with the table above because the calculation is approximate.
Ex.: Throw distance when projecting on a 150" screen with the PA722X/PA622X using the NP13ZL lens:
The throw distance is 304.8 cm × 1.5 to 304.8 cm × 3.0 = 457.2 cm to 914.4 cm (because of the zoom lens).

NP11FL lens throw distance (m) = H × 0.8 : 0.7 m (min.) to 2.6 m (max.)
NP30ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 0.8 to H × 1.0 : 1.0 m (min.) to 11.3 m (max.)
NP12ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 1.2 to H × 1.5 : 0.7 m (min.) to 16.7 m (max.)
NP13ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 1.5 to H × 3.0 : 1.2 m (min.) to 32.1 m (max.)
NP14ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 2.9 to H × 4.7 : 3.7 m (min.) to 51.2 m (max.)
NP15ZL lens throw distance (m) = H × 4.6 to H × 7.1 : 5.9 m (min.) to 76.9 m (max.)
“H” (Horizontal) refers to the screen width.
* Figures differ by several % with the table above because the calculation is approximate.
Ex.: Throw distance when projecting on a 150" screen with the PA672W/PA572W using the NP13ZL lens:
The throw distance is 323.1 cm × 1.5 to 323.1 cm × 3.0 = 484.7 cm to 969.3 cm (because of the zoom lens).

Lens shifting range
This projector is equipped with a lens shift function for adjusting the position of the projected image by turning the lens
shift dials. The lens can be shifted within the range shown below.
NOTE:
• The lens shift function cannot be used when using the NP11FL lens.
• Please do not use the lens shift function when projecting portrait images. Please use it with the lens in the center.
* Refer to the lens shift table on the next page for the drawing number of the lens shift range.

For PA622U/PA522U, the shift range in the horizontal direction is up to 15% H when using the lens unit “NP13ZL” to project a
screen exceeding Model 150.
Ex.: When projecting on a 150" screen
The explanation is for a PA722X/PA622X projector (4:3 panel) with a NP12ZL lens fitted.
• Please replace the screen dimensions and maximum shift value in the calculations for the PA672W/PA572W and
PA622U/PA522U projectors (16:10 panel) as well.
Adjustment range in the vertical direction: The projected image can be moved upwards 0.5 × 228.6 cm = 114 cm,
downwards 0.1 × 228.6 cm = 22 cm (when the lens is at the center position). For a ceiling/front installation, the above
figures are inverted.
Adjustment range in the horizontal direction: The projected image can be moved to the left 0.3 × 304.8 cm = 91 cm,
to the right 0.3 × 304.8 cm = 91 cm.
* Figures differ by several % because the calculation is approximate.

What is HDCP/HDCP technology?
HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a system
for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI).
If you are unable to view material via the HDMI input, this does not necessarily mean the projector is not functioning properly.With
the implementation of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is protected with HDCP and might not be displayed
due to the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital Content Protection, LLC).

•
Enabling the computer’s external display.
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display. Usu-
ally, the combination of the “Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on
or off. For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through
external display selections.
•
•
Non-standard signal output from the computer
If the output signal from a notebook PC is not an industry standard, the projected image may not be displayed
correctly. Should this happen, deactivate the notebook PC’s LCD screen when the projector display is in use. Each
notebook PC has a different way of deactivate/reactivate the local LCD screens as described in the previous step.
Refer to your computer’s documentation for detailed information.
Image displayed is incorrect when using a Mac
When using a Mac with the projector, set the DIPswitch of the Mac adapter (not supplied with the projector) ac-
cording to your resolution. After setting, restart your Mac for the changes to take affect.
For setting display modes other than those supported by your Mac and the projector, changing the DIP switch on
a Mac adapter may bounce an image slightly or may display nothing. Should this happen, set the DIP switch to
the 13" fixed mode and then restart your Mac. After that, restore the DIP switches to a displayable mode and then
restart the Mac again.
NOTE: A Video Adapter cable manufactured by Apple Computer is needed for a MacBook which does not have a mini D-Sub
15-pin connector.

•
Mirroring on a MacBook
*
When using the projector with a MacBook, output may not be set to 1024 × 768 unless “mirroring” is off on your
MacBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Mac computer for mirroring.
Folders or icons are hidden on the Mac screen
Folders or icons may not be seen on the screen. Should this happen, select [View] → [Arrange] from the Apple
