Important Operating Considerations for Safety • When the projector is ceiling mounted, wear protective eyewear to prevent eye injury before opening lamp door. Follow all warnings and cautions in this manual and on the projector. • • Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 8 degrees off axis.

Introduction Top rear cover Your new digital projector is simple to connect, easy to use, and straightforward to maintain. It is a versatile projector that is flexible enough for business presentations and home video viewing, too. The IN2112 has native SVGA 800 x 600 resolution, the IN2114 has native XGA 1024x768 resolution, and the IN2116 has WXGA 1280x800 resolution. This guide applies to both products. They are compatible with a wide variety of computers and video devices.
Connector panel The projector provides both computer and video connection options, including: • VGA computer (2) • S-video • Composite video • Separate audio inputs for video and computer RS-232 VGA Monitor out 5V DC output Audio in S-video IR Sensor The projector also provides the following connectors: • Monitor out, to provide an image on your desktop computer as well as on the projection screen. • Audio out, to provide sound for external speakers.
Positioning the projector Table 1: IN2112 (SVGA) and IN2114 (XGA) Range of distance to the screen for a given screen size To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment. Here are some general guidelines: • Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The projector must be at least 4.9’ (1.5m) from the projection screen.
Ceiling Mount If you wish to install the projector on the ceiling: • We strongly recommend using InFocus approved ceiling mounts for proper fitting, ventilation and installation. Refer to the installation guide that comes with the InFocus Ceiling Mount Kit (p/n SP-CEILUNIV) for more information. The warranty does not cover any damage caused by use of non-approved ceiling mount kits or by installing in an improper location.
Connecting power Connect the black power cord to the Power connector on the rear of the projector and to your electrical outlet. The Power light on the Status Indicator Panel (page 14) turns amber. Connect power cord NOTE: Always use the power cord that shipped with the projector. Connecting a computer source VGA connection Connect one end of the provided computer cable to the VGA 1 or VGA 2 connector on the projector and the other to the VGA connector on your computer.
Optional computer connections To get sound from the projector, connect an audio cable (optional cable, not included) to your computer and to the Audio 1 or Audio 2 connector on the projector. (Default settings are as follows: Audio 1 is used with VGA 1 and VGA 2; Audio 2 is used with S-video and composite.) You can also assign a your source to a different audio in connector, see page 23 and page 30. You may also need an adapter.
Displaying an image Press Power button Touch the Power button on the keypad or the remote. The Power button blinks green and the fans start to run. When the lamp turns on, the start up screen will display and the Power button will become solid green. It can take a minute for the image to achieve full brightness. No start up screen? Get help on page 15. Turn on computer or video device Slide the lens cover to the side, if it is covering the lens. Turn on your computer or video device.
Adjusting the image Adjust height If necessary, adjust the height of the projector by pressing the elevator foot release button to extend the foot. Rotate the elevator feet for granular adjustment of the projector’s height. Avoid placing your hands near the hot exhaust vent at the side of the projector. Avoid placing your hands near the hot exhaust vent at the side of the projector. Adjust distance Position the projector to the desired distance from the screen at a 90 degree angle to the screen.
Connecting a video device S-video connection If your video device uses a round, four-prong S-video connector, plug an Svideo cable into the S-video connector on your video device and into the Svideo connector on the projector. Use the audio cable as described above. You can connect video devices such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video game consoles, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector.
What is Aspect Ratio? 4:3 screen Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. Standard TV screens and older laptops are 4:3; HDTV and most DVDs are 16:9; and widescreen computers are 16:10. If you are projecting onto a screen, the size/shape of the screen will influence the aspect ratio you decide to use. If you are projecting onto a blank wall, there are no screen size restrictions. What you plan to project will also help you choose between 4:3, 16:9 or 16:10.
Shutting down the projector Troubleshooting your setup Screen Save Time The Status Indicator Panel on top of the projector indicates the state of the projector and is a helpful when troubleshooting. You can make the black screen appear after a preset number of minutes by turning on the Screen Save Time feature in the Setup menu. See page 29.
