Chapter 2. Setting up the projector This chapter provides information on positioning the projector, connecting a computer source, using the projector with Windows® 98, and displaying and adjusting a computer source image. Note: You can use your projector with Presentation Director to plan and give presentations with confidence.
1 Top of image (10 ft high) 2 Bottom of image (1.22 ft above lens) 3 Lens center Figure 2-2. Projection angle in 4:3 default mode v This image offset is 124.7% when the projector is in 16:9 mode. This means that if you have an image 10 feet high, the bottom of the image will be 2.47 feet above the center of the lens. For additional information on 16:9 and 4:3 mode, see “Connecting a video device” on page 3-1.
2. Connect the other end to the video port on your computer, as shown in Figure 2-3 on page 2-2. If you are using a desktop computer, you will need to disconnect the monitor cable from the computer video port first. 3. Connect the black power cord to the Power connector on the side of the projector and to your electrical outlet, as shown in Figure 2-4. Note: Only use the power cord that was shipped with the projector. Figure 2-4.
Figure 2-6. Connecting the monitor cables To control your computer mouse using the projector remote control, connect the projector to the computer with a USB cable (not included), as shown in Figure 2-7. USB drivers must be installed to use the USB feature. For more information, see “Using the projector with Windows 98”. Figure 2-7.
If you are running Windows 98 and you connected the USB cable, the Add New Hardware Wizard appears again. Drivers must be installed to use the USB functionality. The Wizard launches three times: v The first time it detects a USB Composite Device. v The second time a USB Human Interface Device (for the keyboard). v The third time it detects a USB Human Interface Device (for the mouse). Displaying a computer source image To display a computer source, complete the following procedure: 1. Remove the lens cap.
Note: Avoid placing your hands near the hot exhaust vent in front of the projector. Figure 2-9. Rotating leveling foot 3.

Chapter 3. Using the projector with a video device This chapter provides information on using the Value Data/Video Projector with a video device. Connecting a video device You can connect VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video games, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. There is also an audio input. You can connect the audio directly to the projector to get sound from the onboard speaker, or you can connect it to your stereo’s receiver to get sound from your own speakers.
If you are connecting the projector to HDTV, the projector’s computer connector should be used. Keep in mind that HDTV and progressive sources can only be handled through the projector’s VGA connector. The optional component to S-video adapter does not function with progressive sources. With progressive sources, the component video connector requires the optional component to VESA adapter.
5. Plug the included audio cable into the black connector on the audio adapter. 6. Plug the other end of the audio cable into the blue Audio In connector on the projector. S-video connection If your video device uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, plug an S-video cable (included) into the S-video connector on your video device and into the S-video connector on the projector, as shown in Figure 3-3. Use the audio adapter as described in “Composite video connection” on page 3-2.
Figure 3-4. VGA connection Use the audio adapter as described in “Composite video connection” on page 3-2. Connect the power cord to the Power connector on the side of the projector and to your electrical outlet. Note: Always use the power cord that shipped with the projector.
