    inputs enable the connection of a variety of sources such
    as DVD players, analogue and digital VCRs, analogue
    and digital satellite receivers and personal computers etc.
    The long throw projection lens has been designed to allow
    the position of the projector to be located behind the
    viewer, similar to that of a real cinema 
    (Fig. 2).

    CAUTION: A special EVC socket on the
    projector’s rear panel will allow connection to
    the optional Remote Input Interface (a special
    cable is required).
    This is not to be confused with a VESA “Plug
    & Display”
    Never connect a computer to this socket, as
    the projector and the computer may be
    damaged (Fig.4).
    Connect the projector to a power supply with a nominal
    voltage within the following values: 100-240 Vac, 50/60 Hz,
    earthed 
    (Fig. 5).

    LOCATION OF PROJECTOR AND SCREEN
    The long throw projection lens has been designed to allow
    the position of the projector to be located behind the
    viewer, similar to that of a real cinema 
    (Fig. 2).
    Position the projector on a stable, suitable platform or
    utilise the optional bracket for a fixed ceiling or wall
    installation.Should the projected image appear not to be level, adjust
    the feet underneath to obtain a level position, lining up
    the base of the projected image to the base of the
    projection screen 
    (Fig. 21).
    
    CAUTION: In the case of ceiling or wall mounting
    using a suspension bracket, follow the instructions
    carefully and comply with the safety standards you
    will find in the box together with the bracket. If you
    use a bracket different to the one supplied by 
    Multimedia, you must make sure that the projector
    is at least 6.5 cm (2.6”) from the ceiling and that the
    bracket is not obstructing the air vents on the lid
    and on the bottom of the projector.

    The Orientation adjustment in the Set up menu will allow
    the projector to be used for desktop front, ceiling front,
    desktop rear and ceiling rear installations 
    (Fig. 26).
    Fig. 26
    To activate an electric motorised screen a 12 Volt output
    is provided at the rear of the projector or with the optional
    Remote Input Interface.  This can be connected to a screen
    interface unit, which can be supplied by screen
    manufacturers 
    (Fig. 27).
    Fig. 27
    The output is activated (Voltage: 12 Vdc) when the
    projector is switched on (green LED on) and is de-activated
    (no Voltage output) when the projector is in stand-by mode
    (red LED on). Adjust the motorised zoom lens to enlarge or reduce the
    projected image.
    Adjust the motorised focus of the lens to achieve maximum
    clarity.
    With optimum focus you should be able to clearly see
    each single pixel of the DLP when within close proximity
    to the screen

     button on the remo-
    te control or 
    -Focus-Esc on the keyboard pad. V+ and
    V- should be used for adjustment.
    The manual lens shift adjustment allows the projected
    image to be moved vertically, up or down, in relation to
    the centre of the screen; the maximum adjustment being
    equal to half the height of the image in either direction
    (Fig. 24).

    In the event you are unable to centre the image within the
    screen area, tilt the projector until the image is correctly
    positioned. Any Keystone error can be removed by the
    keystone adjustment in the Set up menu 
    (Fig. 25).

    Some manufacturers offer screen-masking systems to
    help frame the projected image and improve picture
    contrast.  This can be controlled by the second 12V output
    on the projector 
    (Fig. 28).
    The screen-masking interface can be connected to output
    ,  at the rear of the projector, or on the optional Remo-
    te Input Interface.
    - Rear projection: the screen must be translucent.
    - Front projection: preferably, use a screen with black,
    non-reflecting borders, which will perfectly frame the
    projected image.
    Avoid light shining directly on the screen during projection
    as this will reduce contrast and black level detail on the
    projected image.  For the true cinema experience best
    results are achieved with little or no ambient light.
    Furniture and other objects with reflecting surfaces, as
    well as light coloured walls should be avoided, as they
    are likely to interfere with the screen’s characteristics.
    We recommend the use of screens with low gain
    specifications (i.e. 1.3 to 2).  The use of high gain screens
    should be avoided due to their limited viewing angle, which
    is undesirable for a large audience.

    CAUTION: Connect the projector to a power
    supply with a nominal voltage within the
    following values:  100-240 Vac, 50/60 Hz. It
    must be earthed (Fig. 30).
    Do not install - or operate - the projector on its
    side: this position will dramatically shortens
    the life of the lamp (Fig. 29).
