    Important Operating Cons
    iderations for Safety
    • Refer to this guide for proper  startup and shutdown procedures.
    • Follow all warnings and cautions in this manual and on the projector.
    • Place the projector in a horizontal position no greater than 15 degrees off 
    axis.
    • Locate the projector at least 4 (1.2 m) away from any heating or cooling 
    vents.
    • Do not block ventilation openings. Locate the projector in a well-ventilated  area without obstructions to intake or exhaust vents. Do not place the 
    projector on a tablecloth or other soft covering that may block the vents.
    • Do not place the projector in direct sun light, humid, greasy or dusty places or 
    in places where the projector may come into contact with smoke or steam.
    • Do not touch or block the projector lens with any objects as this can damage  the projector lens. Scratches, gouges and other lens damage are not covered 
    by the product warranty.
    • Do not look directly into the lens while the projector is being used.
    • Do not drop the projector.
    • Do not spill liquid on the projector. Spilled liquid may damage the projector.
    • Use the power cord provided. Connect the power cord to a receptacle with 
    a protective safety (earth) ground terminal. A surge-protected power strip is 
    recommended.
    • Do not overload wall outlets.
    • When disconnecting the power cord, hold the plug, not the cord.
    • Wash hands after handling the cables supplied with this product.
    • The projector remote control uses batteries. Make sure the batteries’ polarity (+/-) is aligned correctly. Di spose of used batteries in accordance 
    with local disposal laws.
    • Use an InFocus approved ceiling mount kit for proper fitting, ventilation and  installation.  The warranty does not co ver any damage caused by use of non-
    approved ceiling mount kits or by installing in an improper location. 
    • When the projector is ceiling mounted, wear protective eyewear to prevent  eye injury before opening lamp door.
    • Refer all service to qualified service personnel. Servicing your own projector can be dangerous to you and will void the warranty.
    • Only use replacement parts specified by  InFocus.  Unauthorized substitutions 
    may result in fire, electrical shock, or injury, and may void the warranty
    • Only genuine InFocus lamps are tested for use in this projector. Use of non 
    InFocus lamps may cause electrical shock and fire, and may void the projector 
    warranty. 
    • Hg – Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance with local disposal laws. See  www.lamprecycle.org .
    • The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp.  The lamp may fail 
    prematurely, or it may rupture with a po pping sound if jolted, scratched, or 
    handled while hot.  The risk of lamp failure or rupture also increases as the 
    lamp age increases; please replace the lamp when you see the “Replace Lamp” 
    message.
    • In the unlikely event of a lamp rupture, particles may exit through the  projector vents. Please keep people, food, and drinks at least 3’ (1m) away 
    from all projector vents. For ceiling applications, keep people, food and drinks 
    out of the keep out area under and around the projector, as indicated by 
    the illustration.

    Follow these instructions to help ensure image quality and lamp life over the life of 
    the projector. Failure to follow these instructions may affect the warranty. For 
    complete details of the warranty, see the Warranty/Safety booklet.

    Positioning the projector
    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. 
    IN124STa must be at least 30.04” (0.763m) from the projection screen, and 
    IN126ST6a must be at least 30.67” (0.779m) from the projection screen.
    • If you are installing 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 PRJ-MNT-UNIV) for mo re information. The warranty does not cover 
    any damage caused by use of non-approved  ceiling mount kits or by installing 
    in an improper location. To turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling mount” 
    on 
    page 28. We recommend using an InFocus authorized ceiling mount.
    • Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance  from the lens of the projector to the  screen and the video format determine 
    the size of the projected image.

    Connecting a computer source
    VGA connection
    Connect one end of the provided computer cable to the Computer 1/Computer 2 connector on the projector and the other to the VGA connector on your computer. If you 
    are using a desktop computer, you will need  to disconnect the monitor cable from the 
    computer’s video port first.
    USB connection
    Connect one end of the USB cable to the USB  MINI-B connector on the projector and the 
    other to the USB connector on your computer. See page 41 for details.
    HDMI connection
    HDMI is a standard, uncompressed, all-digita l audio/video interface. HDMI provides an 
    interface between sources, such as set-top  boxes, DVD players, and receivers and your 
    projector. Plug an HDMI cable into the video-out connector on the video device and into the 
    HDMI connector on the projector.
    Connecting power
    Connect the black power cord to the Power connector on the rear of the projector and to 
    your electrical outlet. If the  Power Saving Mode feature is off, the Power LED on the Status 
    Indicator Panel (
    page 11) blinks blue. If the Power Saving Mode feature is on, the Power LED is steady blue. By default, this feature  is off. You can change the setting, see page 29. NOTE: Always use the power cord that shipped with the projector.
    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/Audio 2 connector on the projec tor. You may also need 
    an adapter.
    If you are using a desktop computer and want to see the image on your computer screen as 
    well as on the projection sc reen, connect to the desktop’s computer cable to Computer 1 
    and the desktop’s monitor cable to the  Monitor Out connector on the projector.

    Displaying an image
    Press the Power button.
    The Power LED lights blue, and the fans start to run. When the lamp comes on, the start up 
    screen displays. It can take up to a minute fo r the image to achieve full brightness. Note: 
    When the feature, AC Power On, is enabled,  the projector automatically turns on when 
    power is connected. This allows control of  ceiling mounted projectors with a wall power 
    switch.
    No start up screen? Get help on page 13.
    Turn on your computer or video device.
    The image should appear on the projec tion screen. If it doesn’t, press the Source button on 
    the projector’s keypad or remote.
    If you are using a VGA cable to conn ect your computer to the projector:
    If using a laptop, make sure its external video port is active.
    Many laptops do not automatically turn on their external video port when a projector is 
    connected. Usually a key combination like FN + F8 or CRT/LCD key turns the external 
    display on and off. Locate a function key labeled CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor 
    symbol. Press FN and the labele d function key simultaneously. 
    Refer to your laptops documentation fo r more information about your laptops 
    key combination.
    No laptop image? Try pressing the Auto Image button on the remote. Get help on
