You can convert the IR remote into a wired remote keypad using the cable provided
with the projector. Connect one end into the remote and the other to the mini stereo
connector on the input panel labeled as
REMOTE
. The wired remote is recommended
when:
•
The built-in keypad is inaccessible
•
The lighting conditions are unsuitable for proper IR transmission
NOTE:
Leave the batteries in the wired remote for the laser key (
) to work.
Keep in mind the following guidelines:
•
Press keys one-at-a-time; there are no simultaneous key combinations required.
•
Note that the two keys—Power
and Shutter
Shutter
are “press-and-hold” keys
that do not function with a typical quick press-and-release key press (
see Figure
3.2
).
•
Hold arrow keys down for continuous adjustment/movement in one direction. In
serial networks, pause briefly between adjustments to ensure that more distant
projectors can “keep up” with the commands.
•
If you press a key while the projector is still responding to the previous action,
such as during power-up, the second key press may not take effect.
Specific keypad commands are explained below:
Power ON/OFF
Press
and hold
for two seconds or press twice quickly to toggle the projector (on)
or (off) with a single keystroke. Or press and release
followed immediately by
(on) or
(off) to guarantee the correct toggle (useful if you are unsure of the
present state).
NOTES:
1)
After powering down, the lamp cooling fan remains on for approximately
five minutes to cool the lamp.
2)
It is a good idea to avoid turning a projector back on
until it has been off for a few minutes. Hot re-strikes of the lamp may reduce lamp life.
Test
Press
Test
to step forward through all internal test patterns and this will eventually
lead you to the current input. If you press
Test
and then cycle by using the
and
right arrow keys, you’ll be cycling in either direction through the test patterns
only, no input.
Auto
Press
Auto
to initiate an automated process in which the projector optimizes critical
display parameters such as size, position, pixel tracking, etc., for the current source.
These parameters are listed in Table 3.1. An
Auto Setup
can save time in perfecting a
display and you can modify the adjustments as desired.
